Glad I Splurged on This.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am glad I got these headphones. Excellent sound quality. Comfortable, not too fatiguing on the ears. You can intuitively customize your preferred sound on the app. If you listen to classical music, you can hear a lot of the nuance. If you prefer rock, you can enjoy the bass cranked up. I prefer the Midnight Blue color for a slightly unusual look.

Posted .Hi Steven,
It brings us great joy to hear that you are enjoying the versatility of your new WH-1000XM6 headphones. It is wonderful to know that the audio precision allows you to capture every nuance of a classical concerto while still providing the punchy bass needed for your favorite rock tracks. We are also glad the Midnight Blue finish is providing that unique aesthetic touch you were looking for!
Thank you for making Sony a part of your daily listening experience.

Best Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I’ve ever purchased. Ambient mode feels like you don’t have headphones on, and ANC with audio blocks out everything. Sound quality is perfect, no complaints!

These cans slap!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow, amazing ANC, and the microphones do such a great job even when standing directly in front of a fan and the air current. The 10-band equalizer settings make these a step a above what is already great out of the box. The smart ambient noise option is nice too, especially when walking outside. The dual bluetooth device connection works great too! I’m impressed and would definitely recommend! This is an all around amazing pair of headphones.

Sony has a winner here!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I've ever owned -- and I've had two Bose noise-cancelling sets previously. The sound is clear and the app is great for adjusting the sound to my ear. The noise cancelling works great, and the easy way to temporarily suspend the noise-cancellation to carry on a conversation is super. Very comfortable as well! The range for the wireless connection is also the best I have ever experienced.

Gym / Chores
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones for the gym / chores around the house. Noise cancellation works pretty well, they have cool features like the simultaneous connectivity to two devices and EQ presets. I've dropped them a couple times and they still work fine. They can get kind of smelly if you leave them in the case without wiping them down post work out, but overall they're great headphones.

Posted .Hi Kyril,
It brings us great satisfaction to hear that your WH-1000XM6 headphones are keeping up with your lifestyle, from intense gym sessions to staying productive around the house. We designed them to be as versatile as they are durable, so it’s fantastic to know they’ve handled a few accidental drops and still perform beautifully. The multipoint connection and EQ presets are definitely game-changers for a seamless experience!
Regarding the post-workout freshness, a quick wipe down after a heavy session is a great tip for any athlete to keep those ear pads in top shape.
Thank you for choosing Sony to power your daily soundtrack!

A downgrade from the WH1000XM5s
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As purely a listening device, these sound great, no complaints here. However, the microphone quality has taken a huge nose-dive. Multiple people have reported that I sound like I'm deep underwater now. I'm not sure what's going on with them but never had any issue like this with the previous model. I never had to configure the previous one and I couldn't find any settings to improve the quality. Not everyone is going to use them for that so it might not be a deal-breaker for most and maybe it's something that can be addressed in later firmware, but right now if your intention is using these as a headset, look elsewhere. Another minor annoyance- one thing a lot of reviewers I've seen praise is how these fold unlike the WH1000XM5s- unfortunately I don't think this really adds anything to them and actually makes it a bit harder to put on!
