The Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones are built for anyone wanting to escape into music without distractions, whether commuting, working from home, or tuning out the world. Powered by Sony's HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN3 and 12 microphones, they deliver exceptional noise cancellation that adapts to your environment. The 30mm drivers produce signature sound with Hi-Res Audio support and DSEE Extreme technology, while a 10-band equaliser in the Sony Sound Connect app lets you shape your listening experience.
With up to 30 hours of battery life on a single charge, you're covered for days without a plug. Fast charging gives a quick boost, and full charging takes about 210 minutes via USB-C.

No noise
Fantastic set of headphones with probably the best noise cancelling system available at the retail price.

Excellent headphones
I bought the MX1000- 6 because of its overall sound quality - particularly with spoken voice. I’m very happy with them but negatives are working with the Sound Connect app to be overly difficult - especially with regard to spatial sound - and there should be extra room for expansion at the top of the headpiece - I find it to be excessively tight on the top of my head. Still a great product.

Great sound, shame about the app.
They weren’t cheap, but I managed to get them at a great price. They performed really well on the flight to Tunisia and are working equally well by the pool. Whilst they pack a punch in the bass department, they don’t block out every sound. That said, they reduce external noise enough that even low-volume music makes the background nearly unnoticeable. I also own Bose, Shokz, and JBL headphones, so I have some experience to compare them with. That said, they all serve different purposes — it’s like comparing chalk and cheese. Where these fall a bit short is the app: the equalizer isn’t very comprehensive, and there’s no voice-pass-through mode. Aside from that, these are excellent headphones. Once you get the fit right, they’re very comfortable, though like most on-ear or over-ear models they can get a bit warm in hot climates. They’re a strong addition to my collection for the gym, running, commuting, and listening at home.

No regrets
I love these headphones! It took me months before I finally bought them. I was worried they'd push against my piercings and hurt, that the noise cancellation wasn't as brilliant as it was advertised to be. But! They don't hurt my ears or head! And the noise cancellation is chef's kiss. Also, the fact that it detects when I'm moving and changes to ambient sound so I can hear my surroundings is brilliant. The colour is so pretty too. It does get a little hot though and it's icky to see the sweat on the pads, but nothing a little clean can't handle.

Wonderful quality design and materials. Fabulous sound and noise cancelling. Intuitive controls and app.

Great noise cancellation
I got these headphones a few weeks ago and I’m very happy with them. I wanted some really good noise cancelling ones and these don’t disappoint. I wore them to the gym and couldn’t hear the gym music at all while listening to music, some background noise can be heard when listening to podcasts but that doesn’t bother me.

Great listening quality. Comfortable for longer wearing periods.

Great headphones
Excellent headphones. Only not 5 star due to extremely short usb charging cable which is almost impossible to use.

worth the money!
amazing noise cancellation and sound quality, perfect for those with autism/ sensory issues aiming to block out that sound input. went from the xm3 to the xm6 and upgrade 100% worth it. battery lasts a while, sits comfortably on the head and i love the ability to connect to 2 devices at once. amazing, worth the money.

Hi g13rhythm,
The Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones are not water-resistant or sweat-proof.This means they are not designed to withstand moisture, sweat, or splashes, and using them in environments like the gym—where sweat exposure is common—could risk damaging them.
