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!

Greatest Of All Time
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This item is Incredible! Hands down the best. I have gone through many pairs of headphone and none of them compare to THE XM6. You usually have basics qualities on headphones like sound, comfort, portability. However the XM6’s “basic” qualities are great qualities. They are by far the most comfortable and high definition sounding headphones. These are generationally superior to everything.

What an improvement
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are a great upgrade from the XM4, which were already amazing. The noise cancelling is noticeably better, and the sound stage is also noticeably improved. I love bass and these headphones deliver. I skipped the XM5 because they didn't fold, and I'm glad these ones fold. The new carrying case is great too. Why didn't they do that sooner? Yes they're pricey, but if you like nice things and can afford to buy them, these are a great purchase.

Still Weighing Other Options…
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Whatever your considering this against…go throw route! You won’t be disappointed? Especially if you’re considering these over the AirPods Pro Max’s. You will miss out on the Apple connectivity but honestly, the Sony Connect App and the Bluetooth connectivity makes up for any losses and then some (Apple still doesn’t offer an equalizer feature).

We are thrilled to hear that you are enjoying your new headphones! It is great to know that the equalizer features and connectivity in the Sony Headphones Connect app are providing the personalized experience you were looking for.

Great headphones for travel + home use
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable, great sound quality, and the noise canceling is almost too good. My only complaint is that you can only connect to 2 devices at a time and there is a noticable delay in audio for competitive games since it uses bluetooth. If you want to play anything competitive just use the included audio jack cable.

Best Headphones I've Ever Had!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones I've ever had and in my opinion worth the money. Comfortable for an entire 9 hour flight to Europe and silenced the crying baby onboard. Made my music and games better with a more robust and complete sound. The touch features are an added bonus. If I had one negative it would be that folding them back up into the carrying case can sometimes be a bit challenging if you're in a hurry.

Sony x6
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing headphones light weight.. : The sound is warmer and more detailed than the XM5. Sony worked with mastering engineers to create a wider soundstage, resulting in "punchier" bass and "airier" highs that feel less confined to you

Posted .Thank you for the incredible review, Manny!
We are thrilled to hear that the WH-1000XM6 is hitting all the right notes for you. It’s awesome that you noticed the "airier" highs and wider soundstage—our engineers worked hard to deliver that "punchier" yet detailed sound while keeping the headphones lightweight and comfortable.
It sounds like you’re truly hearing the music exactly how it was meant to be experienced. Thank you for choosing Sony!

Best headphones ever
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No doubt that sony makes the best headphones. And the fact that you can connect it to 2 phones at the same time is mind blowing. I use 2 phones and the way it switches between both phones is just so smooth. I have the 3 headphones from sony and they are worth my money. I'm stuck for life.

Even better than XM5's
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.XM6's build upon all of the greatness of the XM5 but does it better. Noise cancelling seems better, the new cafe feature is great and they feel like an overall firmer clamping pressure for better seal. Best feature is the ability to now fold them for better storage and transportation, though, they can be a bit difficult to make them fit in their case, a little extra room may have been nice.
