Best value, Top tier quality, Unique features
|Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] Sound quality is top notch. Noise cancelling and ambient sound (transparency mode) has improved significantly from the previous model. They're very comfortable, travel case is unique with the magnetic locking mechanism, and the customizable EQ is awesome! Lastly, they work great as a Playstation headset but an external mic would be required.

Supr lightweight and amazing sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones are super light and extremely easy to move around in. Still dont know if they are okay with sweat but havent had any problems so far. The noise cancelling is also amazing, i took it on a couple planes and it almost conpletely drowns out the engine noise. I cant even hear people having conversations right next to me. These headphones also have expcetional sony sound quality. They are just overall amazing.

Great sound Quality
|Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have a great sound quality and great active noise cancellation in the comfort of these headphones are out of this world. The only take back is I wish it had a better way of folding them. The travel case makes them a little bulky to carry around.

XM6 really good for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgrade from the XM4, it’s been great so far, comfortable enough, and sounds great. Only some minor issues. It’s not as comfort as my Bose quietcomfort ultra. It would also be nice to be able to adjust the ambient sound level. Connect to multiple devices works well, but I am still looking for the options not to start music when connected to my iPhone. That’s kind of annoying. Nothing is perfect but it’s very very nice.

Sony x6
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing headphones light weight.. : The sound is warmer and more detailed than the XM5. Sony worked with mastering engineers to create a wider soundstage, resulting in "punchier" bass and "airier" highs that feel less confined to you

Posted .Thank you for the incredible review, Manny!
We are thrilled to hear that the WH-1000XM6 is hitting all the right notes for you. It’s awesome that you noticed the "airier" highs and wider soundstage—our engineers worked hard to deliver that "punchier" yet detailed sound while keeping the headphones lightweight and comfortable.

Excellent Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are actually really good!! I have a high school baseball player who likes for me to record his games. Some of his tournaments are durning the day and I’ve been blessed to have a remote job so am able to attend his games and continue working. There are times where I have to jump on a zoom call durning the games and I was able to drown out the walk up music that is played and the crowd noises durning my meetings. I could not hear the noise an neither could the person I was meeting with.

We love hearing how the noise canceling and precise mic pickup allow you to support your son at the ballpark while staying professional on Zoom. It sounds like the perfect "remote office" setup.
Good luck to your son this season and thank you for choosing Sony!

Yes Yes & Yes
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ok I’m 53, have an iphone and have been a bose fan for YEARS!!! To keep it in perspective, I still have my Bose Ultra earbuds and will never leave. Ive tried every earbud on the market and none come close to the bose for sound, NC, and comfort. The talking is less to be desired but the gen 2 are to be relased later this week and they claim to have fixed the issue. Now onto the Sony XM6. These are by far the best over ear headphones on the market. You’ve probably researched all the reviews on youtube and they are correct. The only thing I would add is to find YOUR best suited EQ settings. This is extremely important. I followed this one guy on IG and he shared his setting and I ‘liked’ the XM6 before the adjustment, now afterwards I will confirm these are a perfect 10. A must have. So yes buy them, yes fix your EQ settings and finally yes you will say I do NOT have buyers remorse. This is just one man’s, in search of the perfect headphones opinion. Thank you for reading.
