Volume control issue
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.More comfortable than the AirPod Max, but less than the Bose equivalent. The volume control swipe is terrible. Wish they had a physical volume control.

Posted .Thank you for your feedback, Jake.
We are glad to hear that you find the wh1000xm6 more comfortable than the AirPods Max! We put a lot of focus on the weight and pressure distribution, so it’s great to know that is paying off for you.
We also appreciate your honest thoughts on the volume control swipe. We know that touch gestures can have a learning curve compared to physical buttons, and we value your preference for a more tactile volume control. Feedback like yours is essential as we continue to refine the user interface for our future models.
Thank you for choosing Sony and for sharing your experience!
