Great gift!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a great graduation gift for my girlfriend. She recently shifted from using her old AirPod Max headphones and much prefers these. However, she does complain about ear discomfort every now and then due to the ears designs. She’s still figuring out the sound settings but overall, it’s a good purchase! Perhaps, wait for a sale on these. They are too expensive.

Posted .Hi YAAY!
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us! We are delighted to hear that the WH-1000XM6 made such a wonderful graduation gift for your girlfriend.
To help with the occasional ear discomfort, we highly suggest adjusting the headband sliders to loosen the clamp force slightly, or exploring third party replacement earpads, which can offer a softer fit for sensitive ears.
We value your input. Thanks for choosing Sony.
Warm regards,

Totally worth it!
|Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] These are my first high end over the ear headphones and i am so pleased with them! I need to figure out the touch control shortkeys became if my shoulder hits the ourside cup it stops, fwds, or rewinds what im listening to. So thats kind of annoying. But i never read the instructions until I dont figuring things out 'naturally'. Noise cancellation is top notch.

Posted .Hi AlvinA,
Thank you for your review of the WH-1000XM6 headphones. We're happy to hear you find them comfortable and enjoy the great sound quality!
Regarding the noise canceling, a proper seal is crucial for the best performance. We recommend checking the fit and ensuring the earcups fully enclose your ears without any gaps. For further optimization, you can use the Sony | Headphones Connect app to run the "NC Optimizer" function, which tailors the noise canceling to your specific head shape, hairstyle, and even whether you're wearing glasses.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
