    Love Sony products. Had a 1000xm4 that I was using for about 3 years, with about 8 hours a day usage. Moisture got into one of the mics and decided to just buy these to try out as a replacement, and they've been superb.

      Hi NKNewton,

      The WH-1000XM6 is a significant step up, and you're right—the ability to listen while charging over USB-C is a crucial quality-of-life feature that fixes a major annoyance from the XM5 model. Beyond that welcome fix, you'll benefit daily from the practical return of the fully foldable design, making them much easier to travel with, and a noticeably improved touch control experience for volume and playback. These minor but important refinements, alongside the superior ANC, really solidify the XM6 as a worthwhile upgrade.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

    Sound quality is decent. Not too heavy on the bass which is nice but a bit tinny with higher treble at least in my opinion. Unfortunately to much clamping force on my head so I’ll be retuning them.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Hi Mocchan,
      Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts with us on the WH-1000XM6 headphones. We're really sorry about the clamping force being uncomfortable. We genuinely want every listening session to be a good one. Sometimes gently stretching the headband a little or adjusting the earcups angle can help loosen things up for a better fit.

      As for the sound, one thing that might help is the Sony | Sound Connect app, there’s a simple built-in EQ, so you can fine-tune the bass and treble to match what sounds best to you.

      Thanks for considering Sony and for your valuable feedback, it really helps us improve.
      Sincerely,
      Estefany Sony_US

      It’s incredibly rewarding to know that you've noticed the significant leap in performance, especially coming from the excellent XM4s. We put a lot of focus into improving the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to deliver a truly unparalleled listening experience, and your feedback confirms we achieved that goal.

      We are happy to hear that you are enjoying the industry-leading noise cancellation on your WH-1000XM6. We’re sorry to hear the sound quality didn't quite hit the mark for you right out of the box, but we recommend trying the Equalizer settings in the Sony | Headphones Connect app to customize the audio to your personal taste. Many users find that a quick adjustment to the presets really brings the music to life. Thank you for choosing Sony!
