Great headset. Not worth the price.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headset with a caveat. The noise cancelling is 100% set to the environment. Wearing for an extended period on a plane, for example, you will notice fluctuations in the noise cancelling frequency and it is quite unpleasant. Nothing you can do in the settings even when you specifically disable that toggle. Seems I’m in the minority here, though. Battery life is EXCELLENT. Its also nice to be able to connect to 2 devices at once. But these are not nearly worth the price.

Posted .Hi str8b8ed,
We're glad to hear you're enjoying the excellent battery life and multipoint connection on your WH-1000XM6 headphones. We apologize for the frustration with the noise-canceling fluctuations on the plane. This behavior is most often caused by the Adaptive Sound Control feature, which we recommend disabling in the Sony | Headphones Connect app to maintain a consistent noise-canceling level. If the issue persists, please ensure you have the latest firmware installed.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
Eliab

Posted .Hi HumbertoL,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the WH-1000XM6! We're happy you consider them "Good headphones" overall.
About the sound quality, you can customize it to be exactly what you like using the Sony | Sound Connect app.
Here are the simplest things you can do right now to make the sound better:
-Go into the app and look for the Equalizer settings. You can play around with the sliders to change how the music sounds.
-Inside the app, find the setting called DSEE Extreme. This feature uses our smart technology to try and make compressed music sound closer to high resolution audio. It can really add detail and a sense of space to the music.
-In the app's system settings, make sure the "Bluetooth Connection Quality" is set to "Prioritize Sound Quality" instead of "Prioritize Stable Connection." This allows the headphones to use better streaming formats like LDAC for clearer audio (if your phone supports it).
Give those a try!
We appreciate your business and thank you for choosing Sony headphones!
Best regards,
Estefany

Posted .Hello NoelL,
Thank you for your fantastic review! We're so pleased to hear you're enjoying the amazing sound, noise cancellation, and transparency mode on your WH-1000XM6 headphones.
The Dual Noise Sensor technology is a key part of what makes the noise cancellation so effective. It uses two microphones on each earcup to capture ambient noise and process it for an even more immersive listening experience, allowing you to seamlessly switch between full quiet and a clear awareness of your surroundings.
Thanks for choosing Sony, and have a wonderful day!
