Best headphones ever
Absolutely incredible headphones would be an understatement

Not ready for PC Bluetooth
Sound quality is great but connection to PC is terrible. I had to by extra third party software to make them connect. With a headphone at this premium price i was stunned that they didn't work out of the box and i had to spend a few hours to find a workaround.

Better than you think
COMFORT: A lot of reviews talk about the cup fit vs your ears, but i tried both these against the Bose & TBH, these felt better - no noticeable issues with my own ears and they were better at ANC. The Bose is really for long-flight travellers, rather than average users, where these are just slightly better performers and the call quality is far better

Suberb Noise Cancellation and Battery Lige
Bought these headphones ahead of a 24 hours flight from UK to Australia. There were a lot of screaming kids and babies on this flight and the noise cancelling of these worked flawlessly. I wore them throughout the entire flight and when I landed in Sydney, they still had 70% battery left! Sound quality is awesome, honestly what's not to like, love these...
Dillmeister
Average package. Decent sounding but not amazing.
Sound okay, not as good as reviews state. Noise cancellation flicks in and out when in a noisy environment. Not much of an upgrade from the xm5 for me. But they do sound nice. But not as good as b&w.

Escaping the Noise: How the WH-1000XM6 Changed My
I’ve been using the Sony WH-1000XM6 for a couple of days now, and honestly… they’ve completely changed how I listen to music—and even how I manage my migraines day to day. The first thing that really stood out to me was the noise cancelling. The moment I put them on, the world just fades away. Trains, traffic, people talking—it all disappears into silence. It’s not just blocking sound, it actually adapts to your surroundings in real time, so you feel like you’ve stepped into a calm, controlled space. sony And for me, that’s been life-changing. I get migraines that are often triggered by noise and overstimulation. A few weeks ago, I could feel one starting while I was out—everything got too loud, too sharp, and I knew it was about to hit. Normally, I’d have to leave whatever I was doing and find somewhere quiet (which isn’t always easy). But that time, I just put these on, turned on the noise cancelling, and sat still for a bit. Within minutes, the harshness of the environment was gone. It didn’t magically cure the migraine, of course—but it took the edge off enough that I could actually cope and avoid it getting worse. Since then, I carry them everywhere. They’ve become more of a tool than just headphones. Sound-wise, they’re incredible too. Everything feels rich and immersive without being overwhelming. You start noticing details in songs you’ve never heard before—little background sounds, layers, and textures that bring music to life. It’s warm, clear, and just really enjoyable whether you’re focusing or just relaxing. They’re also ridiculously comfortable. I’ve worn them for hours at a time—working, walking, travelling—and I barely notice they’re there. The headband doesn’t dig in, the ear cups feel soft, and they’re light enough for all-day use. amazon Battery life has been solid as well. I don’t think about charging them much because they just last—and when I do forget, a quick charge gives me hours of use, which has saved me more than once. sony I also love the little details, like the fact they fold again, making them easy to carry around, and how seamlessly they switch between my devices. Everything feels polished and easy to use. engadget If I’m being honest, they are expensive—but at this point, I don’t really see them as just headphones anymore. Final thought: these have become part of my routine. They help me enjoy music, focus better, and most importantly, manage my migraine triggers when I need it most—and that alone makes them absolutely worth it for me.
