Thank you for sharing your experience and positive feedback on the WH-1000XM6, Mark. We’re glad to hear you’re noticing significant improvements over previous models and making the most of the dual device connectivity throughout your workday.

With the WH-1000XM6, Sony aimed to address a number of user-requested enhancements. Community and early user impressions highlight several notable upgrades:

- Advanced noise cancellation, powered by a next-generation processor reportedly “7x faster,” delivers even more effective blocking of distractions and real-time sound adaptation compared to the already strong performance in the XM5 and XM4.
- Improved comfort and durability with a wider, reinforced headband, as well as a more compact and sturdy travel case, responding directly to feedback about the XM5’s case size and headband flexibility.
- Enhanced call quality with the addition of a twelfth microphone, which is especially valuable for frequent business calls.
- Multipoint (dual device) connectivity has been refined, making it even easier to switch between work laptops and phones—ideal for users who rely on these features to stay productive and connected.

Your feedback confirms that these updates bring daily value and justify the upgrade for XM4 and XM5 users seeking the latest improvements in comfort, sound, and usability.

Thank you again for your detailed review—it’s direct experiences like yours that help inform ongoing development and ensure Sony headphones continue to set the standard for audio performance and convenience.
Thanks for choosing Sony!

Hi Letmesee,

Thanks so much for being a loyal user of the 1000X series and for sharing your detailed feedback on the new WH1000XM6 headphones! It’s great to hear from someone with firsthand experience across multiple generations of the product.

We're glad that the improvements in swift pairing and the continued focus on a portable, foldable design are making a difference for you.

We appreciate your feedback on the touch control sensitivity! While it is designed to make the controls highly responsive, it can occasionally lead to these accidental activations. One thing you can try is adjusting the touch panel sensitivity in the Sony | Sound Connect app. You can also temporarily disable the touch controls entirely within the app if you're in a particularly windy environment or on a bicycle ride, for example.

Thanks again for the great review and for choosing Sony!

Sincerely,
Jenn | Sony North America.
