Step up from the XM5s
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To be honest, I thought I was done with Sony after the XM5s. They let me down in a lot of ways (sound quality and the hinge for starters). Then I started seeing leaks for the XM6 and I was like “okay one last try”. I’m very glad I did. These are bar none the best cans I’ve owned. I owned AirPods Max and sold them, had B&W Px7 and gave them away for poor noise cancelling. The XM6 finally achieved everything I was looking for in over-ear headphones

Posted .Hello Hhamanot,
Thank you for such an honest and powerful review of the WH-1000XM6 headphones!
We're incredibly grateful you decided to give Sony one more try after your experience with the XM5s. Hearing that the XM6s are "bar none the best cans you've owned"—even after owning and comparing them to premium competitors—truly means a lot to us.
It's fantastic to know that the XM6 finally achieved everything you were looking for in over-ear headphones. We're thrilled to have earned back your trust and delivered an exceptional listening experience!
Thanks for choosing Sony!
Sincerely,
Jenn.
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.

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.

Great headphones but not great cups
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound. Great base. Great NC. The only downside is the ear cups are to thin/shallow so it's not comfortable to wear for a long time. I bought a thicker replacement cups and now i can wear them all day.

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!

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.

Headphones..
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been using them for a little under a year. The sound is good.

Best headphones yet
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well I'll tell you very simply that Bose better watch out because these are really good headphones and I've tried just about everything. The sound is incredible overall and it blocks out the sound and annoys the area making it a very peaceful and calm environment.

Love these!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these especially compared to the Bose ultra. The only thing I wish could be done is connecting more than two devices at the same time, as you need to disconnect one to be able to auto switch between more devices.
