Great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones are good and noise cancelling is great. Tried Sennheiser first but had issue that they kept disconnecting from my PC. No issue with these. Battery life is also great. I don’t charge for days. This is with gaming 2-3 hours a night.

Sony Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones I've ever purchased. Connects very easily to anything I've attempted to connect them with. Sound quality is great. The auto Noise Cancelling or Ambient depending on what you do is somewhat a game changer. Pretty cool pair of headphones. Pricey but you won't be disappointed.

We are so glad the WH-1000XM6 headphones are the best you've ever purchased. It's great to hear that the easy connectivity and "game-changing" Adaptive Sound Control—which automatically switches between Noise Cancelling and Ambient Sound based on your activity—are making such a positive impact on your listening.

Excellent Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are comfortable and sound great. Allowing ambient noise actually amplifies background noise, but it helps to be able to hear yourself talk to not shout at people when using as a headset. They do an amazing job with background noise cancellation. To test my wife was yelling in the room near me and the people on the other end of a meetings call couldn’t hear her at all. However, rocking motions forward and back will result in the noise cancellation causing you to cut in and out. Normal movement is fine though. The magnetic carrying case is much nicer than the previous generations. I also appreciate the ability to feel the difference between the round power button and the oblong feature button. I’m not a fan of the touch controls on the right cup as sometimes they can be a little wonky, but they work way better than on my old XM4s. Overall I highly recommend these headphones and believe it would be hard to find a better pair when caring about sound quality and usage as a headset.

Nice sound quality and comfortable to wear

Premium performance at a premium price
|Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.People are going to complain about the price and they are correct the price is substantial. With that said, they are hundred percent worth it. You get class leading noise canceling and comfort with very decent sound out of the box that can be tuned in the incredible app to be almost perfect for any listening preference. The included case is very well made, and the magnetic latch is genius because it allows easy and fast access to the headphones. The only problem I have is a nitpick, and that is the build quality is a slight downgrade when compared to other headphones like the bose qc ultra and sonos ace, but the xm6's still feel decent just not as premium. So, if you want the overall best everyday headphones, the xm6's are currently unmatched in the current headphone landscape.

Couldn't be happier!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sound amazing! The fact that they're so light and carry a punchy sound make them even more awesome. I was going back and forth between this and the apple airpod Max's but they were too heavy and didn't have a deeper bass compared to the Sony's. I got them for my wife as I still use my XM4's. I can say sound wise it isn't a huge upgrade from the XM4's but they've upgraded the noise cancellation and the sidetone feature drastically. Solid buy nonetheless and my wife loves it which is the most important thing as a husband haha

We're thrilled to hear you and your wife are enjoying the amazing sound and the lightweight design, and it's great to know that the punchy bass delivers what you're looking for.
It's especially valuable to get feedback from a dedicated fan of the XM4s. We're glad to hear that you've noticed the upgrades to the noise cancellation and the sidetone feature!
The most important thing is that your wife loves them. Thanks again for being a loyal customer and for sharing your experience!

Good quality, good upgrade from previous models
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones, small upgrade from my older XM4s and a little smaller folded up making them a bit more portable and great battery life. Sony needs to upgrade their SoundConnect app UI but the EQ still works well so outdated UI is the only small downside, would recommend.

Effective misophonia relief
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter suffers from misophonia. She tried other passive and active noise cancelling earbuds and headphones, and none work as well as these to block sounds that trigger her (chewing swallowing, sniffling, etc.) Sound quality and comfort are top notch. I highly recommend these cans for audiophiles and anyone with misophonia!

Best headphones ever!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these headphones after doing a bit of research. I had high hopes for them, but still not fully expecting what I would recieve. I tried them on and was instantly blown away by their noise cancellation and other features such as hand over ear which makes it easy to hear others around you. The way you can raise the volume or skip songs. Its all swiping makes it so much easier than buttons that can break. They are so comfortable I never get tired wearing them and I wear them all day at school or when I workout. 10/10 product worth the money!
