The word for me is disappointed.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was excited when I saw that the M6 available. From reading and watching reviews everybody was saying oh yeah it's wonderful. 1. Well, the earcup did not fit my ears couldn't get it comfortable fit nor could I get the upper part quit to fit. Oh, it would go on my head and my ears, but I had to keep wiggling them, couldn't get comfortable. Oh and they also became warm/Hot. 2. The app was not intuitive. I never could get them adjusted for sound the way I like to hear it. Very disappointed. 3. I returned them!

Sony review
|Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Sound. The quality of bass is pretty strong especially with the customization of the EQ. Pretty decent for the gym wouldn’t recommend for running but for lifting weights is definitely great.

Major improvements!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These took everything I didn’t like about the XM5s and improved upon them. The hinge system feels very strong and I have not encountered any creaking. With the XM5s if I turned my head the seal around my ears would loosen enough to where outside noise would leak in, with these XM6s I have no issues moving my head around. I preferred the XM4s base but these do quite well over all. There seems to be a clear separation of the lows, mids and highs.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your fantastic feedback, Sammi!
We are absolutely thrilled to hear that the WH-1000XM6 headphones have improved upon the previous generation in the ways that matter most to you, especially addressing the comfort and seal.
It’s incredibly rewarding to know that you are finding the redesigned hinge system strong and that the improved acoustic seal maintains your quiet listening experience, even when moving your head. We worked hard on these refinements, and your detailed comparison is a great validation of those efforts.
We also appreciate your insightful comments on the sound quality. Hearing that you perceive a clear separation across the lows, mids, and highs confirms the detailed, balanced audio we strove to achieve. While the bass signature might be different from the XM4s, we're glad the overall audio performance still impresses.
Thank you again for choosing Sony's flagship headphones and for providing this excellent, comparative review!

Great, if you use your own eq setting
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The stock eq setting it ships with is awful. However, the eq itself is quite comprehensive and you can dial the sound to your taste pretty quickly. DEFINITELY EXPERIMENT WITH EQ because my first impression when I used it for the first time wasn't very good. Then I spent some time tweaking the eq settings and am now very happy with it!
