    Amazing sound quality, and top of the line noise cancelling. However, they can get uncomfortable during long wear if you wear glasses.

      Hi EliS,

      Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the top-of-the-line sound quality and noise cancellation of the WH-1000XM6 headphones. We also appreciate your feedback on comfort, especially for glasses wearers.

      For the most comfortable fit during long listening sessions, we recommend ensuring the headband is properly adjusted so the earcups sit snugly around your ears without putting too much pressure on your glasses' arms. Many users find that the clamping force and overall comfort improve over time with regular use.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

      Best regards,

    Amazing. Its my first top quality headset but I love it. Some very loud children yelling still maes it through noise cancellation; but if you also have music going you’ll be fine. Very comfortable for wearing while you work for sevral hours.
