great battery + sound, some manufacture defects
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these headphones and the battery life is amazing. Used it for 5 days without needing to charge. The noise cancel seems to be the same as the xm5 didn't notice much of a difference. The headphones can rotate so the cuffs are pointing in which is better than the xm5 because there were times when it would accidentally start tapping and playing a song or whatever. I like how they still give the option to use a jack if wired is your thing or you can't charge it but want to still use them. The issue's I've had seem to be more from the manufacturing. I had to return it after a week because the headphones had a consistent crackling sound and when I checked online I saw this was a common issue. The second pair i got I hear white noise occasionally which I was told are the microphones adjusting for noise cancelling. My second set also had issues with the different NC levels with the left side letting in more noise than the right. I've heard it's due to possible dust and debris which Is weird because I've only had this second pair for a week and kept it in the case. Might have to return this one too as I can't seem to fix the NC leaking on the left ear.

Posted .Hi MustaphaC,
Thanks so much for reaching out and sharing your experience with the WH-1000XM6 headphones.
We appreciate you sharing your thoughts on the new features. It's great to hear you're enjoying the improved swivel design and the flexible connectivity options. We're also glad the battery life is living up to your expectations!
However, we're really sorry to hear you've had so many issues. That's definitely not the experience we want for our customers.
For the white noise and noise-canceling issues, here are a few things we can try.
1. Restart your headphones.
2. Reset the headphones to factory settings. You can find the steps here: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2984/v1/en/contents/TP1001863305.html
3. Update the firmware: Make sure your headphones are running the latest firmware version through the Sony | Sound Connect app.
If none of those steps work and you're still having trouble, we strongly recommend you to contact our support team for assistance at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones
Thanks for considering Sony products and for your thoughtful input.

Sony headphone review
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I must admit the Sony headphones have incredible sound performance. It has increased my headphone usage, and has made the experience much more enjoyable. The fit across the head is comfortable and when bending over the headphones actually stay in place that is a big plus. Also when exercising and during vigorous workouts there is little to no movement of the headphones. Lastly most definitely not least the comfort of the ear cushions are phenomenal. I would recommend to others and purchase again if necessary.

Sony - WH-1000XM6- Noise Canceling great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The purpose of the purchase was to have headphones that could block out my surroundings and allow me to create an appropriate environment for studying, without the distraction of nearby conversations. These headphones do exactly that. I am still getting used to the level of silence they produce, but I believe they do fulfill their purpose.

Good for music lovers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They fit insanely well and are comfortable to wear for long durations tho you can’t really lay down with them unless you’re flat on your back. The EQ settings are really great for a customizable listening experience too! All in all well worth the money, I’m happy with my upgrade

Bass is incredible and Cinema mode is great!!
|Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cinema Mode is a game changer where I can watch a movie or a tv show and actually feel like Im watching it in in a personal theater. The Bass is solid and defenitly worth the price compared to the apple air pod max. Also can use the aux cord if you want which is another kind gesture from Sony
I would recommend this to a friendComfortable headphones with good battery life
