Hi CHUD!
Thanks so much for your review of the WH-1000XM6.

Regarding the email and text alerts, those are actually controlled by your iPhone's "Announce Notifications" feature rather than the headphones themselves. You can easily turn this off by going to your iPhone Settings and toggling it off.

Thanks for choosing Sony!

Hi User338952,

Thank you for the amazing review! It brings us great joy to hear that you're loving the Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones. It's great to know that you're taking full advantage of the Sony | Headphones Connect app to customize your sound. We designed these headphones to provide a seamless and personalized experience, whether you're using the Adaptive Sound Control to automatically adjust to your surroundings or enjoying high-resolution audio thanks to LDAC support and our industry-leading noise cancellation.

Hi OccasionalBuyer,

We are sorry to hear that your experience with the WH-1000XM6 has not met your expectations, especially after moving from the XM5. The issues you described—poor sound quality, a "toy-like" microphone, and random shutdowns—are certainly not typical of this model, which features an upgraded QN3 processor and 12-microphone system for improved clarity. We recommend disabling the "Automatic Power Off" setting in the Sony Sound Connect app to address the shutdowns and performing a factory reset (holding the power and noise-canceling buttons for 10 seconds) to resolve potential software glitches affecting the audio; however, if the issues persist, it is very likely you have a defective unit and we encourage you to utilize your warranty for a replacement. Thanks for choosing Sony.

Best regards, Eliab
