Awesome upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent noise reduction and sound is top tier. Pads are a lil hard need to soften up. Great upgrade to 6 yr old model. Had tried the Bose Ultras and ANC is alot better but not the fit

Posted .Thank you for the fantastic review, Unsure!
We're thrilled that the WH-1000XM6 is hitting that "top-tier" mark for you and outperforming the competition in noise reduction. It’s great to hear they were a worthy upgrade after six years!
Regarding the earpads, they do tend to soften up and conform to your fit after a week or two of regular use. We appreciate the feedback on the fit as well, as we're always looking to balance world-class ANC with long-term comfort.
Thanks for choosing Sony for your upgrade!

Good overall
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Compared to the last XM5 the ANC is undeniably better but not by much and it doesn’t justify it’s price. For someone like me who wants the best it isn’t a horrible idea but still a bad deal

Heavy, but VERY Nice
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These pair readily with bluetooth devices and have great sound. They are a tad heavy, and make my ears tender after a couple of hours. GREAT battery life and fast recharging.
