Great ANC. Pretty flat audio. Bulky.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great ANC. Pretty flat audio. They are too bulky to comfortably Have them around your neck when not using them. I hear the hinges are weak, but I cannot speak to that as I didn't keep them long enough.

Posted .Hi TrashMetalPanda,
We feel privileged to know you were impressed with the great Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) performance of the WH-1000XM6 headphones!
We hear your feedback regarding the sound profile and the bulkiness when worn around the neck. We want to assure you that you can easily customize the sound to your preference using the Sony Headphones Connect app. The app features a robust Equalizer (EQ) that allows you to boost bass, enhance treble, or select from various presets to create a listening profile that suits your taste.
We also appreciate your note on the design for future consideration. Thank you for choosing Sony!

Sony - WH-1000XM6- Noise Canceling great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The purpose of the purchase was to have headphones that could block out my surroundings and allow me to create an appropriate environment for studying, without the distraction of nearby conversations. These headphones do exactly that. I am still getting used to the level of silence they produce, but I believe they do fulfill their purpose.

Posted .Hi Deeel,
We are thrilled to hear you find the sound quality excellent and the Noise Cancellation effective enough that you "didn't listed the person in my side," which is the core performance we strive for, and we are glad the touch controls are working great for you. However, we sincerely apologize that the shallow ear cups are causing discomfort by allowing your ear to touch the internal cloth. We recommend that users experiencing this comfort issue consider looking for thicker, custom-depth replacement ear pads from specialized third-party accessory makers, which often resolves the depth problem while maintaining the impressive ANC performance you enjoy.
Thanks for choosing Sony.

Almost perfect
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far I've been extremely impresses. The sound quality is great, and the noise cancelling tech works better than anything I've seen before. I also love how easy it is to switch b/w devices and all the other customization options you get with the app. The only downsides for me: 1. The volume adjustment increments on the touch pad are way to low. It feels like each swipe is only moving volume up or down 1% and it takes 30-40 swipes to go from 50% to max. Very frustrating, please fix! Or give us the option to adjust. 2. The headphones are very comfortable, but also get very hot since they don't breath at all. I guess this is a consequence of the the noise insulation required.
