Great purchase
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Some of the best headphones Ive owned. Seamlessly switches connections without issue. Might be uncomfortable if you have big ears and the pads dont keep the first parts that far off your head. Battery life is amazing as well.

Great for Upgrades and best in Class
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I currently have the XM3s and was waiting for a real jump to upgrade and this is it! Better noise cancellation and clearer sound. Overall a great upgrade from older models and as always Sony is leading in over the ear headphones so a great buy no matter what.

Massive upgrade
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Coming from XM2 which lasted 8 years, these had big shoes to fill. Happy to report the sound quality and ANC is a huge upgrade. The microphone for calls is improved but still not as good as airpods Max. With that said best noise cancelling headphones available.

Sony WH1000XM6
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced my old over the ear headphones for the Sony 6. Perhaps it’s me but I think you should have the option to listen a little louder. But the background option is a great feature. And the case is perfect for on the go. Just snaps into place.
I would recommend this to a friend10/10
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise canceling is next-level, works so well it softens the world even with no music playing. Our 2019 Sony WH-XB900N headphones are still going strong, but we had to try these. Sound and bass are comparable, with a slight upgrade you can feel.

Posted .Hi Jjshort94,
Thanks for taking the time to share this amazing review. We are so happy you chose to upgrade to the new WH-1000XM6 headphones! Your comment that the noise canceling is next-level and "softens the world" is exactly what we strive for.

Great headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to have the xm4's so have liked the noise canceling of Sony but these are a huge improvement. They don't suck on phone call and the touch pad actually work both issues I had with the xm4's. If you need headphones get these

Posted .Hi Juan,
Thank you for the 5-star review! We're so happy to hear that your new WH-1000XM6 headphones are a huge improvement over the WH-1000XM4. It's fantastic that you're noticing a big difference in both the noise cancellation and the touch controls, as those were key areas of focus for us.
The enhanced performance, especially for phone calls and the touch controls, is thanks to a major upgrade in the core technology. The WH-1000XM6 features the new HD Noise Canceling Processor QN3, which is seven times faster than its predecessor and utilizes 12 microphones—1.5 times more than the previous model. This new processor and microphone system work together in real-time to more effectively block out unwanted sounds and isolate your voice for crystal-clear calls, making a noticeable difference in your daily use.
Thanks for choosing Sony, have an excellent day!
