    No headphone can cancel high pitched sounds.

    Yes, these will cancel noise but they don't cancel extremly loud noises like yelling/ screaming or high pitched sounds like a squealing dryer. No headphones can cancel these sounds.

      Hi Raymond,

      We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. You are exactly right—while our industry-leading noise-canceling technology is designed to drastically reduce ambient sounds like airplane engines or office chatter, sudden, high-pitched, or extremely loud noises can still be difficult to eliminate completely. We are glad to hear they are working well for your general noise-canceling needs!

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

      Hi PaulaS,

      It’s rewarding to hear that you are enjoying the fantastic sound quality and awesome noise cancellation of your WH-1000XM6 headphones!

      We are glad that you are picking up on new details in your favorite music. It is wonderful to know that the HD Noise Canceling Processor QN3 is delivering such a powerful experience, as it is 7x faster than the processor found in our previous WH-1000XM5 model. By optimizing 12 microphones in real time, this system ensures you get the very best in noise cancellation, sound quality, and call clarity.

      Thank you for trusting Sony.

    They're not bad regarding sound quality, but when you want headphones and want to blast your music and don't want others to be able to hear what you're listing to, these aren't it. They're good tho I recommend them.

      Hi PatrickW,

      We are ecstatic to learn that our WH-1000XM6 headphones have lived up to your expectations of being the "best of the best." We worked hard to push the boundaries with our new QN3 processor and improved driver design to ensure every note is delivered with studio-level precision. Knowing that you’d recommend them so highly to others is the greatest compliment we could receive.

      Thank you for choosing Sony.

    Being one of the loyal bose fan for decades, Sony XM6 made me switch. Specifically, audio quality 9/10, comfort 10/10, battery 10/10, ease of use 9/10, one of the best thing i like about the XM6 is that you can wear it for an extended workout, although it will get slightly sweaty but its really comfortable and secured.

      Hi KevinWu,

      It is truly heartened to learn that a long-term audio enthusiast such as yourself found the switch to the Sony WH-1000XM6 so rewarding.

      Earning a "10/10" for comfort and battery life is high praise, and we are especially glad to hear that the fit remains secure even during your extended workouts. While we always recommend a quick wipe-down after a sweat session to keep those pads in top shape, it’s great to know the ergonomics are providing the stability you need to stay focused on your fitness goals. Your breakdown of the audio quality and ease of use is incredibly helpful for other listeners looking to make a change.

      Thank you for trusting Sony to power your workouts and your daily listening.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Cinema Mode is a game changer where I can watch a movie or a tv show and actually feel like Im watching it in in a personal theater. The Bass is solid and defenitly worth the price compared to the apple air pod max. Also can use the aux cord if you want which is another kind gesture from Sony

    The Sony WH-1000XM6 in Midnight Blue are an outstanding, all-around choice for anyone wanting exceptional noise cancellation, refined audio, and comfortable long-term wear. They remain among the best wireless ANC headphones on the market, especially if you value comfort, smart features, and overall sound quality.

    I think these are the best headphones on the market that don't need an amplifier. The noise cancelling is excellent. Battery life is excellent. Sound quality is excellent. One thing these have over the Airpod Max is that you can customize the audio levels. The only knock I have is that they show smears easily.

    I must admit the Sony headphones have incredible sound performance. It has increased my headphone usage, and has made the experience much more enjoyable. The fit across the head is comfortable and when bending over the headphones actually stay in place that is a big plus. Also when exercising and during vigorous workouts there is little to no movement of the headphones. Lastly most definitely not least the comfort of the ear cushions are phenomenal. I would recommend to others and purchase again if necessary.
