Excellent Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are actually really good!! I have a high school baseball player who likes for me to record his games. Some of his tournaments are durning the day and I’ve been blessed to have a remote job so am able to attend his games and continue working. There are times where I have to jump on a zoom call durning the games and I was able to drown out the walk up music that is played and the crowd noises durning my meetings. I could not hear the noise an neither could the person I was meeting with.

We love hearing how the noise canceling and precise mic pickup allow you to support your son at the ballpark while staying professional on Zoom. It sounds like the perfect "remote office" setup.
Good luck to your son this season and thank you for choosing Sony!

Great sound, but…
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Christmas present. Daughter said sound was amazing and the ability to adjust overall sound was great. She like how the headphone controls work and the seamless integration with all her devices. Downside - because of how the headphones fold , they would not stay “square” on her head. They had a tendency to “twist” while she was wearing them which she found very annoying. Eventually returned & got Bose QV Ultra 2nd Fen.

Posted .Hi PaulG,
Thank you for sharing your feedback and for choosing the WH-1000XM6 as a Christmas gift. We are glad to hear your daughter enjoyed the sound quality, customization options, and the seamless connection with her devices.
We appreciate the specific details regarding the fit and the "twisting" she experienced due to the folding mechanism. Comfort and stability are top priorities for us, and feedback like this is incredibly valuable as we look toward future designs.
Thank you for giving Sony a try!

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!

Improvement over the xm5, still has app issues
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound quality and interface, improvement over the build of the xm5 as a physical structure. App interface with the phone is a little bit more laggy than the previous iteration, this might get fixed with software updates, unclear.

Posted .Hi NMoon,
We are immensely pleased to hear that you are enjoying the excellent sound quality and the refined physical build of the new WH-1000XM6!
Regarding the app performance you mentioned, we want to ensure your interface experience is as smooth as your listening. To resolve the lag you're seeing, we recommend clearing the cache within your phone's app settings. If that doesn't do the trick, a fresh start by uninstalling and then reinstalling the Sony | Headphones Connect app often resolves these types of software hiccups. This should help the app's responsiveness match the premium performance of the headphones themselves.
Thank you for making Sony part of your daily listening.
Best regards,
Dominick
