    Headphones are great no complaints love the app that it is connected to. Does the job that it is intended to do, when I was on the plane the guy right behind me had a whole conversation and I could hear bits and pieces of it at time with volume on max during songs played. They do everything they say that they do

    Uncomfortable

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    They sound great but they're insanely uncomfortable. After about an hour the oressure on my ears becomes unbearable. I don't know who they designed these for, but clearly they didn't have human adult heads in mind. People say they loosen up over time but I've been using them daily for months and they still put way too much pressure on my ears. Way overpriced for such a lack of ergonomics.

      Hello SeanF,
      Thanks for reaching out to us about your WH-1000XM6 headphones. We're genuinely sorry to hear that you're finding them insanely uncomfortable even after months of daily use. That's definitely not the experience we want you to have.

      We recommend you take a moment to review the official Sony Help Guide on how to properly wear the headset. Sometimes a very slight, specific adjustment can completely relieve pressure points.
      Please check out this link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2984/v1/en/contents/TP1001861255.html

      We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to share such detailed feedback about the comfort and ergonomics of the headphones. Receiving specific input like this is incredibly valuable to us.

      Thanks for considering Sony products. We apologize for your experience.
      Sincerely,
      Estefany Sony_US

      Thank you for the review, chunkees!

      Welcome to the latest generation! The WH-1000XM3 was a classic, but we are so glad you’re enjoying the upgrade to the XM6. You’ll definitely notice the jump in noise-canceling precision and the improved voice pickup for calls. It’s a huge step forward and we’re thrilled it’s living up to the legacy for you!

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on the WH-1000XM6, LeoB. We're glad to hear that you're enjoying the active noise cancellation feature. Your comments regarding the fit are appreciated—achieving the best sound and ANC performance does often depend on adjusting the headband for a secure and comfortable fit.

      We also understand your concern about smudging. The materials used are selected for comfort and audio quality, but they can sometimes show fingerprints or marks. To help minimize this, we recommend gently wiping the headphones with a soft, dry cloth. If you need further tips or support, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer support team.

      Your input is valuable and helps us continue to improve our products and user experience.

      Thanks for choosing Sony!
