    A lovely upgrade from the XM5

    So, as someone who had the previous version, the WH-1000XM5, for a couple of years, I decided it was finally time for an upgrade and treated myself to the WH-1000XM6 in this absolutely gorgeous khaki colour! As with the previous version, the sound quality is amazing. They also feel noticeably lighter and look a lot sleeker and more premium than the XM5s. My only gripe is the new case. I wish Sony had kept the zipper! As someone who travels with the headphone case attached to my backpack, the older zipped case gave me much more reassurance that my headphones weren't going to fall out. The new case has a magnetic clasp which feels like it could be undone a little too easily, so I don't feel quite as confident travelling with it. Other than that, a lovely upgrade!

    Desperately uncomfortable

    Sound quality and noise cancelling are great, totally let down by comfort. The clamping force is too high, the cushions are not padded enough and the drivers push into your ears. Really disappointed as my old XM3s were so good.
    1 reply from Sony support team team - 3 days ago
    Hi, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you're facing difficulties when wearing your WH-1000XM6. This is certainly not the experience we aim to provide, as we continuously strive to deliver the best possible quality. However, it's worth mentioning that the XM6 is designed with a focus on premium feel, durability, and comfort. While the headphones use a lightweight plastic frame, the finish is intentionally soft‑touch, matte, and fingerprint‑resistant, giving them a refined appearance and reducing visible wear over time, and the ear cushions and headband are coated in vegan leather, providing a soft, comfortable touch during long listening sessions while keeping the weight low. Also, you can find how to wear the headset correctly to prevent any discomfort here: https://cutt.ly/Nrbv0fDI Moreover, we appreciate your feedback. Hearing from our customers helps us continuously improve our products to align with your preferences. Rest assured that we've raised it to the concerned team for future consideration.

    VG sound & noise cancelling, bad Bluetooth latency

    These headphones sound great and the noise cancellation is excellent. But I bought them to use via Bluetooth while practising on my keyboard and sadly the bt link has such bad latency that they're unususable for this purpose except via USB cable. Therefore only four out of five stars.😐

    Amazing headphones.

    Upgraded from the XM3 (which I loved) and the difference is amazing. They’re so comfy and the sound is amazing. Noise cancelling is also brilliant - been having some work done on the house and they’ve been a godsend whilst working to block everything out. Battery life is really good. I’ve only had to charge them once so far and they’ve been heavily used. I’m so glad I decided to go for a newer model. The only downside is it took me ages to find an equaliser that was good for me - even the equaliser finder didn’t really help but I googled some settings and have finally got them where I want them to be.

    Great piece of kit!

    I was mulling over which headphones to get and these XM6's were coming on top on majority of the reviews and comparisons sites. Sound quality is awesome on them and the ANC is also very good. Only negatives for me at this stage is that they markup really quickly and also tend to slip off when doing any activities in the gym that require you to look up like bench pressing etc. Only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars.

    Excellent Sound Quality and Comfort

    I bought these Sony headphones a month ago and have been very happy with them. The sound quality is clear, the bass is excellent, and they are comfortable to wear for long periods. The battery life is also impressive, and the Bluetooth connection works smoothly. Overall, they offer great quality and value for money. Highly recommended!

    Very Uncomfortable and Causes Jaw Pain

    I've had these XM6s for about 8 months and own multiple generations of the 1000X series. These are the most uncomfortable headphones I have ever worn. I have tried to wear this consistently but they keep causing jaw pain (TMJ pain). The pain lasts for hours even after taking off the headphones. Everything else about the headphones are fantastic (ANC/Ambient mode/etc) but if I can't wear these for more than 10 minutes without pain, it's bad. Maybe the recent Sony 1000x the collexion fixed the comfort but the XM6 are painful.
    1 reply from Sony North America Customer Support team - 1 month ago
    Hi Diegoar, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the WH-1000XM6. We truly appreciate the loyalty of a long-time 1000X series owner, and we are glad to hear that you found the ANC, Ambient mode, and overall performance to be fantastic. However, we are incredibly sorry to hear about the discomfort and jaw pain you’ve experienced. Comfort is deeply personal and subjective, as everyone’s head shape and sensitivities are entirely unique. It’s clear that the clamping force or ear cup design of this specific model isn't aligning well with your needs, and we certainly don't want you to be in pain. Given your experience, it’s possible that traditional over-ear headphones as a whole might not be the best fit for your jaw structure. If you are still looking for that industry-leading audio experience without the physical pressure on your temples and jaw, we highly recommend trying our WF-1000XM6 earbuds. The WF-1000XM6 true wireless earbuds pack the same premium technology, including our top-tier active noise cancellation, exceptional sound quality, and smart features, into a lightweight, in-ear design. This completely bypasses the headband and ear cup pressure, which might be the perfect solution for your TMJ concerns. Thank you again for your honest feedback and for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick

    Good microphone for calls and durable

    Very good microphone on calls i used it on the street next to main road and in the tube and the noice canceling is amazing. I had the XM4 back in 2019 and now i had to replace it with the newer version. I hope this will last me the same years

    Just put them on and press play.

    I have stayed with Sony since the Walkman days. The Walkman revolutionised the way we listen to music. Despite all the noise from competitors for me Sony still leads the way. 360 quality. When I put them on I always get this feeling that transports me back to the 80s sat commuting to work on the bus listening to every chord on ‘Rattlesnakes’ by Loyd Cole and the Commotions.Joy. Thank you Sony.

    Nice and comfy with great sound quality.

    I was given these for my 80th birthday. The sound quality is excellent but they do make your ears a bit sweaty in this heatwave we’re having. The only drawback is with the noise cancelling as I don’t know my wife is talking to me until she slaps me round the back of my head!
