Great sound and low weight
I have many headphones. I use a Grado Wireless which is amazing but not noise cancelling. This makes it not a great travel companion. After reviewing the Bose Ultra 2 and the Sony WH-1000XM6, I chose the Sony as a friend suggested that the sound of the Sony is better than Bose, but Bose is somewhat better in noise cancelling. So I chose for the sound. Fits well, not too heavy. Very happy

Excelling headphones
Excellent headphones, comfortable to wear and I can still use them with my old iPod, with the benefit of noise cancelling too. First week with them has been great. Looking forward to singing them on my work commutes.

Fantastic technology in a poor material execution
The audio technology is top in class in the wireless ANC headphones category. The sound quality is great, the noise cancelling is best in class, the call quality thanks to the six microphones and the processing is also best in class even with background noise. What is not acceptable is the "casing" of this amazing technology. I bought the blue colour version, and the leather would get stained from my natural hair oil, to the point that I would have to clean them after every use. No thanks, I don't have time for that. No other headphones that I own suffer this problem. Second is the flimsyness of the earcups hinges. They don't feel solid, and with a quick online search, indeed there are many complaints of early failures. No thanks, I am not going to invest this amount of money for something so fragile. I would rather spend the same amount on something maybe less performing in some aspects, but that is going to last. Conclusion: product returned for a reimbursement. If Sony fixes these issues in the XM7 generation, I would definitely buy a pair.

Hi, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the material quality of the WH-1000XM6 did not meet your expectations, leading to the return of your product. 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. 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.

So light weight and the best
They are light weight and the noise canceling is goood!! I was debating on getting the xm6 or apples Max headphone and glad I got these. I do wish they were louder at full volume but it’s probably safer that they are not lol. Great headphones. I’m very happy with them!

Enjoy that great sound and the incredible noise cancellation. Thank you for choosing Sony! Best regards, Gus, Sony North America Customer Support

Premium sound, comfort, and noise cancellation in one sleek package
I’ve been using the Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones daily, and they’ve quickly become my go-to for work, travel, and relaxing at home. The sound quality is exceptional—clear highs, rich mids, and deep bass that’s powerful without being overwhelming. Whether I’m listening to music, podcasts, or taking calls, everything sounds crisp and well balanced. The noise cancellation is truly impressive. It does an amazing job blocking out background noise like traffic, conversations, and household sounds, which makes a huge difference when I need to focus. I also love how adaptive it is, adjusting automatically depending on my environment. Comfort is another big win. The headphones feel lightweight and well cushioned, even during long listening sessions, and the adjustable fit doesn’t create pressure on my head or ears. Battery life has been excellent so far—I can go multiple days without needing to recharge, which is super convenient. The design is sleek and premium, and the touch controls are intuitive once you get used to them. Overall, these headphones feel thoughtfully designed and worth the investment for anyone who values sound quality, comfort, and effective noise cancellation. Highly recommend for commuting, travel, or everyday use.

Expected better at this price
Nicely built, has many features and nice sound quality. But had to return due to multiple issues especially while paired with a macbook and galaxy smartphone. Wear detection didn't work, didn't switch audio during an incoming call, had audio issues during calls, would stop playing music when worn and pause when removed. Found XM5s to be having much more stable firmware and connectivity.

worth the upgrade
Bought these to replace my old MX4's as they had seen better days. Worth the upgrade now that the folding option is back. The AnC feels better than ever and they are very comfortable. Long battery life and quick to charge

Lot of amazing feature you will disable but great.
I love the features and sound of these headphones but there are a few things that I hope they improve with updates. It’s pretty amazing all the automation that can be used with the settings remembering locations and actions and saving your settings for when walking away from him or commuting but the reality is for me I won’t always want the same settings when walking the dog or travelling it depends more on if I’m with someone I want to talk to or not or if I want to just chill. The feature available are great not just sound cancelling and transparency which work very well but also the modes like background music where it sounds like it’s at a distance which is great for having it at a low non distracting volume when you are with others or reading/working for example rather than when you want the full immersive experience when you are focussed on just the music. This is good when you are with others too with transparency so you can have music in the background and still have conversations etc. My gripe is I want full control of all of this without the app so I can swit by modes easier without my phone you can switch transparency and noice cancelling with buttons on the headphones but not listening modes from standard to background and that’s a big shame. Also the auto transparency is pointless really for me as if I want transparency I want it completely I don’t want it to keep changing as what’s the point if you want to hear something but you don’t be use the headphones have temporarily filtered something out? Seems a bit daft. So while all the automation and scen features are impressive you quickly just turn it all off so you can get them to do what you want then to do when you want them to do it and the. You end up having to use the app too much rather than the buttons or touch pad on the headphones. Not a massive deal but something I hope they improve with updates. Great headphones and the call quality in noisy environments is quite incredible and is the main reason I bought these. Very very good unless you are right next to very very loud speakers or something the. It starts to go a bit nuts and people will hear feedback and squeezing but that’s not an everyday thing you really just need to be able to do a call in a cafe or pub or something and that works well you may struggle in a very loud gig but why would you? Great to have for travelling work when you need to do calls at airports train stations or in a coffee shop. Brilliant. I hope they allow mode switching without the app soon for standard and background.
