Overall excellent
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony headphones always have excellent sound quality, plus ANC. To be fair I miss the design of the XM4s more but this is completely my own bias and may not be applicable to all people.

Thank you for your review of the WH1000XM6 headphones. We are glad to hear that you are enjoying the excellent sound quality and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC).
