    Has a excelent sound, noise cancelation i didn't listed the person in my side, the control for volume and changed sound is great. The confort is no good, the ear touch the cloth that come inside, need to be deeper, the ear cups are small and don't cover of the ear.

      Hi Deeel,

      We are thrilled to hear you find the sound quality excellent and the Noise Cancellation effective enough that you "didn't listed the person in my side," which is the core performance we strive for, and we are glad the touch controls are working great for you. However, we sincerely apologize that the shallow ear cups are causing discomfort by allowing your ear to touch the internal cloth. We recommend that users experiencing this comfort issue consider looking for thicker, custom-depth replacement ear pads from specialized third-party accessory makers, which often resolves the depth problem while maintaining the impressive ANC performance you enjoy.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.
      Best regards,

    So far I've been extremely impresses. The sound quality is great, and the noise cancelling tech works better than anything I've seen before. I also love how easy it is to switch b/w devices and all the other customization options you get with the app. The only downsides for me: 1. The volume adjustment increments on the touch pad are way to low. It feels like each swipe is only moving volume up or down 1% and it takes 30-40 swipes to go from 50% to max. Very frustrating, please fix! Or give us the option to adjust. 2. The headphones are very comfortable, but also get very hot since they don't breath at all. I guess this is a consequence of the the noise insulation required.

      Hi Grumpy,

      Thank you for the excellent feedback on the WH-1000XM6 headphones! We're thrilled you're impressed with the sound quality and noise canceling. We appreciate you sharing your experience.

      We understand your frustration with the volume control. While the current design is for precise adjustments, you can increase or decrease the volume more quickly by swiping and holding your finger on the touch panel. Your feedback about both the volume and the warmth of the earcups will be passed on to our product team for future consideration.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

      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!

    The purpose of the purchase was to have headphones that could block out my surroundings and allow me to create an appropriate environment for studying, without the distraction of nearby conversations. These headphones do exactly that. I am still getting used to the level of silence they produce, but I believe they do fulfill their purpose.
