    Cinema Mode is a game changer where I can watch a movie or a tv show and actually feel like Im watching it in in a personal theater. The Bass is solid and defenitly worth the price compared to the apple air pod max. Also can use the aux cord if you want which is another kind gesture from Sony

    I bought these headphones for airplane rides. The noise cancellation and sound quality is amazing. I love how they seemlessly connect to 2 devices at the same time. It automatically switches to the device is playing audio. The problem I have with this product is comfort. The headband applies too much pressure on top of my head and around my ears. It gave me a headache about 30 minutes into a flight. I do have the old XM2 headphones and the XM2 is more comfortable than these XM6. I will be returning these.

      Thank you for your feedback, EdwardLee.

      We are glad to hear you enjoyed the noise cancellation and seamless switching, but we are truly sorry to hear the WH-1000XM6 caused you discomfort. We aim for a perfect balance of performance and comfort, and we regret that the fit didn't work out for you as well as your previous XM2s did.

      Your feedback regarding the headband pressure is very valuable to our design team. We appreciate your long-term loyalty to Sony and hope we can find a better fit for you in the future.

    I thought the X5s sounded good but these have taken it a step beyond. The sounds quality is phenomenal but where they have made substantial improvement is in the noise cancellation. Just an amazing set of headphones.

    The best noise canceling headphone out there, when this headphone was turned on with the noise canceling on it is like a sound dampening bubble around you. Great headphone

      Hi Cyhu,

      It is truly wonderful to know that you are enjoying the audio performance of your WH-1000XM6 even when noise canceling is turned off!

      The exceptional sound quality you mentioned is driven by our new custom driver unit featuring a lightweight carbon fiber dome, which was masterfully engineered to deliver rich vocals and incredible clarity across all frequencies. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the finish. We chose these premium, smooth-touch materials for their sleek aesthetic and lightweight comfort, which is essential for our most comfortable headband design yet.

    The noise cancellation on these headphones is really good. On my last flight I couldn't get them connected to my AirFly pro before the trip so I put my Airpod Pro's in and covered my ears with these. I could watch my film and actually hear what was being said over jet noise.
