    Got these headphones before a long flight and it was AMAZING. The noise cancellation is great. Still working through all the features (there is a "smart" conversation mode; 3D sounds; etc.) so, probably more to come.

    Great ANC. Pretty flat audio. They are too bulky to comfortably Have them around your neck when not using them. I hear the hinges are weak, but I cannot speak to that as I didn't keep them long enough.

      Hi TrashMetalPanda,

      We feel privileged to know you were impressed with the great Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) performance of the WH-1000XM6 headphones!

      We hear your feedback regarding the sound profile and the bulkiness when worn around the neck. We want to assure you that you can easily customize the sound to your preference using the Sony Headphones Connect app. The app features a robust Equalizer (EQ) that allows you to boost bass, enhance treble, or select from various presets to create a listening profile that suits your taste.

      We also appreciate your note on the design for future consideration. Thank you for choosing Sony!

      Regards,

    These are good headphones in terms of sound quality and noise cancelation. That said, I've had several issues with the microphone not working even after doing a factory reset and firmware updates. I'll be taking them back in hopes of getting them resolved. For the money, I'd take a chance on something else.
