    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.
