Customer Ratings & Reviews

Hello AngelaB,

Thank you for choosing Sony!

We're elated to hear that your son loves the WH1000XM6 headphones so much. It’s wonderful to know they have made such a positive impact and are being enjoyed to the fullest. We appreciate you sharing this joy with us and hope they continue to deliver exceptional sound and comfort for him.

Thank you for sharing this thoughtful feedback on the WH-1000XM6, KFN3. We’re glad to hear you found the audio quality impressive, as delivering outstanding sound is a key goal for this series.

Regarding the concerns about comfort and ear pad heat retention: over-ear designs like the WH-1000XM6 are engineered to provide effective noise cancellation and immersive sound, which can sometimes result in warmer ear pads during extended use. User experiences with comfort can vary, and your comment is valuable for us as we continue to refine our design. We recommend taking short breaks during long listening sessions, which can help manage warmth and maintain comfort.

On the topic of touch controls, the WH-1000XM6 introduces advanced touch functionalities—including swipe and tap gestures—intended to offer intuitive control. We understand they may not suit all usage preferences, and your feedback is important for future improvements. If you encounter any reliability issues with these controls, please ensure your headset’s firmware is updated and consider customizing settings via the Headphones Connect app, which may improve the usability for your specific needs.

Your feedback will be shared with our product team for future development, as we are committed to enhancing both the listening experience and overall user comfort. Thanks for considering Sony.

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.

Hi JosephR,

Thanks for that fantastic 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear that you feel the WH-1000XM6 headphones surpass other brands you've used.

We're also glad the setup was easy with the app!

Thanks for choosing Sony, and have a wonderful day!

Thanks for continue choosing Sony!

Sincerely,

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 choosing Sony!

Thank you for sharing your honest thoughts and feedback about the WH-1000XM6, MeganB. We’re glad to hear you found them to be a great product, and we completely understand your perspective as a current WH-1000XM4 user considering the upgrade.

The WH-1000XM6 is designed to build on Sony’s premium sound quality and industry-leading noise cancellation. With each new generation, we work to incorporate both technological advancements and feedback from our users to enhance comfort, usability, and sound experience. Some improvements in the XM6 include even more advanced noise cancellation, crystal-clear calls, and refinements to the overall design for enhanced wearability and ease of use. We appreciate that for loyal XM4 users, these updates may not always feel significant enough for everyone to make the switch at a higher price point.

Your suggestion regarding pricing is very valuable, and we are always reviewing feedback to find the right balance of innovation and accessibility. We’re grateful for your loyalty to the XM4 and hope it continues to provide excellent performance for your needs. If you decide to try out future models, we hope to deliver features that offer even more value for you.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts—your voice truly helps shape the future of Sony headphones.

Best regards,
Gus

Hello JohnnyD, thank you very much for this fantastic review! It brings us great satisfaction to hear that the WH1000XM6 are being recognized as our best headphones released to date! Taking the best features from their predecessors – the XM4 and XM5 – and elevating them to the next level! Thanks for continue choosing Sony, we really appreciate your loyalty! Sincerely, -Jenn.

Hi JDell,
Thanks for the review. We really appreciate you sharing your honest thoughts on the WH-1000XM6. We're sorry to hear they haven't impressed you yet, especially since you were looking for more ways to change the sound.

We have some tools inside the Sony | Sound Connect app that might help you get things just right:

-Custom EQ Slots: In the app, you can find "Custom" settings. This lets you move the sliders yourself to change the bass or treble exactly how you want.

-Clear Bass: You can use this specific slider to make the bass stronger or lighter without making the music sound fuzzy.

We hope this helps!

Thanks for considering Sony. We’re always looking for ways to improve, so we truly value feedback like this.

Warm regards,
Estefany
