Sounds amazing, however, the microphone wont work
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Great ANC. Pretty flat audio. Bulky.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Posted .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!

Buy WH-1000XM5, WH-1000XM6 is terrible
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish I stayed with my WH-1000XM5 replacement. My WH-1000XM5 started to make a high pitch noise. I had the option to replace it with a new WH-1000XM5 or pay the difference and upgrade to WH-1000XM6. I upgraded. The sound in WH-1000XM6 is terrible compared to WH-1000XM5. Also, the microphone is terrible, sounds like a toy mic. Plus, the headphone continually shuts down without me doing anything. Could I have a defective headphone?

Posted .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
