Amazing if your ears are small enough.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ANC is second to none. There is zero doubt about that. However, if you have slightly larger ears, these may be uncomfortable for you. There are multiple mic's inside the earcup that my ears pressed against making the headphones extremely uncomfortable to wear after only a few minutes. I hate to admit it but I returned them and went with the Bose QC Ultra 2 only because of the larger ear opening. The Bose ANC is not as good as the Sony, but I can ACTUALLY WEAR THEM.

Posted .Hi JJ85,
We appreciate you taking the time to share such detailed and honest feedback, even though the WH-1000XM6 headphones were not the right fit for you personally. We are delighted you found the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to be second to none, as we constantly strive for industry-leading performance in that area. However, we sincerely regret that the earcup size caused discomfort due to pressure on the internal microphones. We take comfort issues seriously and will pass this specific note regarding larger ears and internal mic placement directly to our design and engineering teams for future product development.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

XM3 to XM6
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well it’s a Sony XM and I just upgraded from xm 3 to xm 6. My old one served me faithfully for years and it was no brainer to get this one. So far it’s been worth the upgrade. With BestBuy I managed to trade my old one in for some credit and I like that even after so many years of use I got credit for it.

We are sorry to hear about these concerns with your WH-1000XM6 headphones. To prevent accidental button presses while lying down, we recommend adjusting your head position or using the Sony | Headphones Connect app to customize or disable specific button functions.
