Great sound quality, Not ideal for phone calls
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound but I needed to use this as a noise canceling headset for phone calls. Unfortunately there is a well documented issue with feedback (echo) when you speak into the headset. I tried all the fixes listed on the Internet forums but it didn’t work. I returned it and went back to my Bose headset.

Posted .Hi StanB, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the sound quality of the Sony - WH1000XM5, but we're truly sorry to learn about the echo issue during calls and that it impacted your experience. We understand how important reliable call performance is, especially when noise cancelling is a priority. Your feedback is valuable, and we've shared it with our product team to help improve future updates and designs. We appreciate you giving Sony a try and hope to have the chance to earn back your trust down the road. Regards, -Dominick
Subpar Experience
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What a joke! I was super disappointed with the sound of these. I still own and emphatically use the Mx3's. The 6's are pathetic compared to the sound and build quality of the former headphones. I really wanted to like the 6's, but if you have a discriminate taste and want your music to sound a certain way, these may not be the ones for you. I had other people test the 6's to see if it was just me and they agreed the 3's and 4's are better. Even after messing with the EQ the 6th did not compare. Unless you just want something to listen to music with, I would skip this version.
