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!

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.More AI and not very loud, really good with sweat, doesn’t slip, but has gaps.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Hi Shay,
We’re glad to hear you’re finding the WH-1000XM6 to be a stable and secure fit! To address the volume levels, we recommend checking the "Sound" tab in the Sony | Sound Connect app to ensure the "Volume Liaison" or safety limiters aren't capping your output, and you can also use the equalizer to boost specific frequencies to your liking. Regarding the "gaps" in the ear cups and sweat exposure, please note that these headphones are not officially IP-rated for water or sweat resistance; we recommend wiping them down after use and ensuring a snug headband adjustment to maintain the best acoustic seal for the noise canceling to function optimally.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Amazing if your ears are small enough.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ANC is second to none. There is zero doubt about that. However, if you have slightly larger ears, these may be uncomfortable for you. There are multiple mic's inside the earcup that my ears pressed against making the headphones extremely uncomfortable to wear after only a few minutes. I hate to admit it but I returned them and went with the Bose QC Ultra 2 only because of the larger ear opening. The Bose ANC is not as good as the Sony, but I can ACTUALLY WEAR THEM.

Posted .Hi JJ85,
We appreciate you taking the time to share such detailed and honest feedback, even though the WH-1000XM6 headphones were not the right fit for you personally. We are delighted you found the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to be second to none, as we constantly strive for industry-leading performance in that area. However, we sincerely regret that the earcup size caused discomfort due to pressure on the internal microphones. We take comfort issues seriously and will pass this specific note regarding larger ears and internal mic placement directly to our design and engineering teams for future product development.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab
