Worth the upgrade. / Caution
I bought these for the noise canceling. I use them 99% of the time with no music, or sound playing. I don't like the larger size coming out of the ear. Because, I lay on my side with them, and for that the XM5's are nicer. But, these are louder while staying clear, the noise canceling is nicer, and the heart-beat sound is extremely less. The heart-beat sound is when the noise-canceling is on and you can hear your heart beat. That problem is almost gone now, with the new design. But, different eartips are needed to remove it almost completely. I recommend changing the original earbud tips to get nicer noise canceling, and to hear less if any, heart-beat sound. I use Charjen, Luckvan Memory Foam Eartips, or similar.I use these until the battery gets low, and then switch to the XM5's until the XM6's are finished charging. The "heart-beat" sound is extremely loud on the XM5's and basically gone with the correct eartips on these.Update:I recommend getting a used pair. A used pair is currently $248, on Amazon. You will need to buy extra earbud tips regardless of which one you choose, and there's probably nothing wrong with them.I bought the XM5'S certified refurbished elsewhere, 2 years ago. The first pair had a random glitch that was not fixable with firmware. The second pair works perfectly.Update #2:There was a battery drain problem. The batteries would drain extremely unevenly. For example, the right earbud would always drain faster than the left. A small amount is normal. But, the battery for the right earbud would be at approximately 20% and the left earbud would be at approximately 43%. That is, "in the range of", normal, if you using a voice assistant, and the speak-to-activate feature, on the previous models. But, I had that feature off. Also, the talk-to-disable noise-canceling feature was off. I ordered another pair, and the batteries drains evenly, with about a 2 percentage point difference.Update #3:This pair did not have any problems, for one week. Then, the left earbud died. It would not charge. I reset the earbuds several times. An orange light on the case flashed. Which, means an error has occurred while charging, preventing the process from completing.Update #4:This pair was a return, and i ordered a new pair. The paper label that wraps around the box, if pealed open, in an average way, can be resealed with the glue sticking like new.Final Update:Also, i tried the Luckvan Memory Foam Eartips for Sony WF-1000XM5. They are super soft and comfortable, and have an earwax shield. But, with all foam tips, the foam doesn't hold the original density long. I change them at about two weeks, for any foam tips. The Charjen tips last much longer. But, eventually the density of the foam doesn't bounce back. The Charjens have rubber on the outside of the foam. They last longer, because the foam doesn't soak up oils. The Charjens have a lifetime warranty, and it only costs about $5.99 for shipping. But, save the box. It has some numbers on it.I wear these all day every day, and often at night. They save my sanity from cricket and bird noise.If you don't wear them as often you may not need change the eartips as often. Plus, if noise cancelation, the "heart beat sound", or just gross dirty eartips are not important, then you won't have to change them as often. Also, if you don't use foam eartips, then a pair will last forever.Important:Sometimes you may need to ensure that the earbuds are connected to the charging pins in the case. For example, if you go to use your earbuds and they warn you with a low battery message, even though you stored them in a charged case.Taking them in and out quickly can glitch the charging.So, make sure the light on the case blinks fully. Like, a slow eye blink.Ver másVer menos

A top tier ANC wireless earbud!
My thoughts on the Sony WF-1000XM6…Starting with the sound, I would describe them as a mixed bag. Currently on firmware 1.5.0, I find the sound with ANC or Transparency enabled to have a tonal balance that favors bass but still maintains a balanced midrange and treble presentation. The bass is deep and punchy, and despite being boosted about 3–5 dB above what I would call neutral, it doesn’t overshadow the sense of clarity and nuance from instruments and vocalists in the mix. This type of sound signature works very well with a wide variety of genres, particularly EDM and hip-hop. Additionally, the added bass in louder environments such as a bus or plane helps combat low-frequency noise from engines.The midrange sounds very natural and, as stated before, balanced. I don’t detect any oddities in the timbre, which is crucial for immersion and the feeling that someone is singing directly to you. However, as we ascend to the upper midrange, I have noticed a problem. It’s actually not a result of the tuning, but more so the ANC system Sony has designed. There seems to be some sort of feedback loop that distorts the frequencies in the upper mids and lower treble region. I can hear this shift immediately when switching between no ambient control and ANC or Transparency mode.I am aware that ANC systems can have an adverse effect on sound quality due to their nature of combating outside noise with an opposing sound wave. This procedure can introduce some level of compression, phase shift, and distortion to the mix. I just wanted to point out that the effect seems a bit more noticeable than I’m used to with the Sony WF-1000XM6.Treble is well extended, and the timbre here is also very well done. The sense of articulation and space is excellent as a result. Cymbals and hi-hats sound well represented in the mix, as do the reverbs and harmonics of instruments. But again, when ANC or Transparency is activated, the sound quality takes a nose dive in the lower treble region, with audible distortion and a slight sense of soundstage compression. When ANC and Transparency are disabled, these issues are nonexistent and the Sony WF-1000XM6 simply sounds magnificent.Comfort for me is excellent. The foam tips, when cool, are firm and can initially be a bit irritating when first inserted. However, once your body heat transfers to the foam, it softens and molds to your unique ear anatomy, increasing comfort. Due to the nature of foam tips, the stability—or fit—is excellent. Once these are in my ears, they don’t move at all. I can talk, laugh, eat, and even sleep for hours with them in, and they will stay put until I remove them myself.The noise canceling is fantastic. With the right foam tips inserted properly, it can feel like the world literally shuts off. There is also no hiss when ANC is active—just dead silence. It’s honestly surreal how effective they are at blocking out noise. The Transparency mode is also excellent, providing a very clear rendition of your environment with minimal hiss. Your voice sounds natural as well, with little to no sense of occlusion.Call quality is excellent. They do a great job of isolating your voice from loud environments so callers on the other end can hear you clearly. This is also a big advantage when using your voice assistant, whether that’s Siri, Gemini, Bixby, Alexa, etc., in noisy environments. There’s nothing more frustrating than giving a long command only to be told you couldn’t be understood because of background noise.The controls are operated through touch sensors on each earbud. For the most part, they get the job done. However, I still prefer stem-style earbuds like the AirPods Pro or Samsung Galaxy Buds because you get more control options through a mix of squeeze and slide gestures, allowing you to control both media and volume from a single earbud. The Sony WF-1000XM6 allows you to customize controls now, but there’s still the limitation of not being able to control everything from one earbud.Volume control, while I’m used to it now, can sometimes be annoying—especially when raising the volume by tapping the right earbud four times. Sometimes I accidentally tap three times and end up restarting my song. Also, during a call you can’t adjust the volume, and if you enable the ability to mute the microphone from the earbuds, you lose the ability to hang up calls. These feel like odd omissions since I’ve used earbuds with only touch sensors that still allow full call controls, such as the Technics AZ100 and the Bose QC (non-Ultra) buds.Build quality, in my opinion, is solid. These feel premium despite being mostly plastic. It’s a soft-touch plastic, and I don’t notice any gaps in the seams. The case has a metal hinge that feels satisfying to open and close. No complaints here. Aesthetically, however, I wish the outward-facing microphones matched the color of the Sony logo for a bit more contrast and a snazzier look.The feature set of the WF-1000XM6 is extensive. From automatic adjustments to your preferred EQ and ambient sound controls depending on your location and movement, to nodding or shaking your head to answer or reject incoming calls, these earbuds cover most of the latest premium wireless earbud features. One thing to note is that if you have an iPhone, you won’t get spatial audio with head tracking using Sony’s 360 Reality Audio.Finally, battery life is fantastic—around 8–9 hours with ANC or Transparency on, or 12+ hours with it off, which is the mode I use most of the time for improved sound quality. I only enable ANC in loud environments such as commuting on public transportation or traveling. I keep ambient control off when I’m at home or in the office. I use Transparency mode when I want to listen to music while still being aware of my surroundings—such as when I’m home keeping an ear out for my 6-year-old daughter, or when I’m walking outside and want to remain aware of traffic.In summary, I really enjoy these earbuds despite the shortcomings in sound quality when ANC or Transparency is enabled (most people will likely be fine with the difference and may not even notice it, but I’m very picky) and the limited call controls. I would still recommend them to anyone looking for a top-tier wireless ANC earbud.UPDATE (3/23/26): I think I found a way to greatly reduce or eliminate the distortion while in ANC or Transparency mode. Go to Device Settings in the app, then go to the Wearing option and select “Determine Optimal Earbud Tips.” Click “Test the wearing condition” and let it run.I think the system calibrates the ANC to your ears in addition to determining whether you have a good seal. As a result, the ANC feedback loop distortion seems to have significantly reduced—or maybe even gone away—for me. Give it a try.

A story of compromise in design and failed software.
I have also owned the XM3 and XM5. First up I'll tell you about the massive flaws in these new units. It isn't all bad, though, but the rest of the good comes with compromises.To start with I had XM5s until April of 2026. I accidentally left them in a hotel room, and never got them back. To that end enjoy the half broken earbuds, because I put them through the washing machine twice and the microphones are broken. Which means no ANC, no passthrough. Annoying, but still working for sound, it is what it is. So to the hotel cleaner/staff who stole my stuff enjoy having busted earbuds you cant sell.First up, I mostly use my earbuds in a hot outdoors environment. The XM3 and XM5 never had ANY problem with temperature. The XM6 refuses to charge when it gets hotter than 100F (~38C) outside. Blinking orange light charging problem. Again the XM3 and XM5 never had a problem with these temperatures, and I never noticed battery life (long term capacity loss) problems. So why?! Sony? Why?Next the charging connection problems. They were minimal in the XM3, slightly worse in the XM5 (partially helped by some update about 2 years later), but very VERY bad with the XM6. Factory earbud tips, no tips, soft foam tips, doesn't matter. It's all a gambler's luck with if the case accepts the earbuds. Horrible. Will I have to wait three more years for an update that makes it half as bad (still much worse than the updated XM5s)? Is it a physical space problem, a lack of design care, a rushed product, poorly made software control, who knows.For these two problems alone I give these units 2 star.Next, my actual review of the earbuds function itself.The sound quality -is- improved. The larger body, which means more "open" sound (open meaning it sounds more like real life around you rather than a little speaker directly into your ear), seems to be the primary driver for the better bass, because bass is a larger sound wave and needs more space to sound correct. This comes with a minor tradeoff that I am not deducting a star for. The larger, more open body means more sound leaks out - not a lot more, and it wasn't much with the XM5, but still more.This also makes external bass (sound from outside coming in) significantly louder. With isolation only, deep frequencies are significantly more noticeable.The ANC is improved indeed, with regard to those tradeoffs from the body design. The XM6 seems to have a more noticeable background noise floor/tone than the 5's, but this is a minor complaint. With cancelling on I can ignore 98.98% of the world, and it is a noticeable improvement over the XM5.The non-active-cancelling isolation is also noticeable. Despite the higher volume of bass frequencies, just having some expanding foam tips makes no-ANC isolation very quiet.But all in all I have to give these a 1 star because -Sony obviously messed up badly with the software development,The improvements come with compromises,The larger size does not mean a better battery,The materials of the case *feel* as if they are cheaper and won't handle daily use of opening multiple times a day for years like the past versions. It may only *feel* that way and not be real, I don't know, but our perceptions are reality and affect how people think about things.and,The price increase despite these glaring, obvious, had to have been known by the company design flaws is an insult.All in all I would have never bought these if I did not lose my half-broken XM5s, and even if I did to replace them and have full functionality, I would have been EVEN MORE disappointed.Stay. Away! Do not buy!

Two steps forward, one step back.
Sound Quality: Absolutely perfect. Sony has been making excellent audio products for years and this is just another example of the care they put into their sound. No complaints, except for the fact that they sound more or less identical to the XM5 from a few years ago. Not much has changed.ANC/Transparency: Scary good. These are "rob me" levels of ANC, the kind where you can't hear someone sneaking up on you. You can't hear a damn thing while it's on, as long as you get a good seal. The transparency mode is really good too, but it's just a tiny bit robotic. The part I love the most is that Sony finally added some extra pressure-relieving vents around these earbuds (the little dotted areas where the microphones sit). Why does that matter? It means you no longer get any rumbling or popping sounds in your ears when you move your jaw, such as when you're eating, yawning, talking, etc. This was a huge problem with the XM5, because they only had one pressure-relieving vent per earbud, whereas these have three per bud. They finally solved this problem with the XM6, and I couldn't be happier about it.Other Features: The "background music" listening mode is neat, it basically simulates a virtual surround environment to trick your brain into thinking the music is coming from all around you. The only downside is that you can't use any of your equalizer presets when it's on, which is a bit strange. I love speech detection too, and I think more earbud manufacturers need to start implementing this technology. So far, I think Sony and Google are the only ones that do. If you start talking, it automatically forces you into transparency mode and lowers the volume of your media so you can talk to people. Once you go 15 seconds without speaking or making noise (you can change the timing in the app, as well as the sensitivity), it goes back to normal. No more quickly reaching to tap an earbud or switch modes if you need to chat.Touch Controls: Meh. They're not as sensitive as some of the other earbuds I've used over the years, but at least Sony is allowing for more customization compared to the XM5. Still wish you could swipe to increase or decrease your volume, like you get with Bose and Google earbuds.Fit/Comfort: This is where my personal problems start to arise. Sony is still using the same eartips made of the same stiff, uncomfortable foam after all these years. I was hoping they'd move to something softer, or maybe give customers silicone tips that actually don't slip out, but no. People with certain ear shapes will not find these comfortable at all, either due to the eartips or due to the body of the earbuds pressing against parts of your ear (depending on how you orient them for stability). Others might be able to wear them comfortably for hours and hours without a single issue. It all depends on your ears. I bought some Azla foam eartips and they're more comfortable for me personally, but I'm still experimenting. If, after a while, they haven't solved the problem, I'll just have to return these earbuds. I'm really not a fan of this big, bulky "pill" shape either. Sony could stand to add some removable wing tips for these earbuds in order to help with the stability. Hopefully some aftermarket manufacturer will make some in the near future; there's plenty of room inside the charging case so that they won't interfere with it.**Please bear in mind that anything you read online related to the fit or the comfort of these earbuds (or ANY earbuds, for that matter) will depend entirely on the shape of your ears, the size of your ears, your skin type, how easily you sweat, your environment, etc. There are over eight billion people on this planet, which means there are over sixteen billion ears. No two are alike. Some people think these earbuds fit perfectly. Others will struggle. We're all different in this regard. Try them out for yourself and make your own judgments.**Battery: Fairly impressive, but it could be better. 8 hours of listening with ANC/transparency mode is good, but in 2026, it's a little lacking. But at least they give you the option to turn off those modes, which boosts the battery life to 12 hours. I feel like the case needs to be recharged more frequently than some of my other earbuds. I also noticed that it's a LOT harder to get these earbuds to line up with the charging pins in the case compared to their older earbuds. You really need to twist and fiddle with them to get them to charge, even if the pins and the contacts are totally clean. If you don't, they'll just stay connected to your phone and drain the battery. Be careful!App: Good god, I wish they would fix their app. There's been a recurring problem for years where, when you open it, it displays the UI that suggests your earbuds are connected and it gives you all of the options to fiddle with. Then, after about 5-10 seconds, it switches back to the "connect" screen and it reveals that it didn't register any of your inputs, if you made any. You then have to tap connect twice (in two separate pop-ups!) to reopen the app and get your settings back. THEN you can make your changes. This problem isn't exclusive to the XM6, all of Sony's earbuds have been doing this since at least 2024. It's not very intuitive to navigate either (some things are named weirdly or hidden behind unexpected menus), but I chalk part of this up to the fact that Sony is a Japanese company and English is not their strong suit.Overall Quality: Sony made a lot of smart decisions with these earbuds, but they also made a few stupid ones. I love the quality of the sound. I love the ANC and transparency modes. I love the extra features. But I hate the fact that I need to rely on third-party products to make them fit comfortably in my ears. The battery is fine, but feels slightly lacking. My advice is to buy these earbuds, but ONLY when they're on sale. $329 is pretty steep. These earbuds aren't a straight upgrade, it's more like a minor update that introduces a couple of new problems that need to be solved in the next generation... which we probably won't see until 2030 at this rate.

Buy if you are looking for premium earbuds, keeping in mind they have flaws.
Let me start off by saying I love these earbuds, the black that I got looks great, they're light and small for portability, but they do have a few flaws. They have amazing noise cancellation, the features in the app are wonderful going from making the music sound like it's coming from speakers in the room to shaking your head yes or no to answer calls. They sound easily the best I have ever tried, and if they don't sound to your liking you can eq them heavily. From what I've seen, some people don't enjoy the foam tips on the earbuds, however, they fit very well in my ears and don't have the problem I had with silicone slipping out of my ears the longer I wore them due to sweat. They feel very comfortable against my ear, only causing mild discomfort after ~6 hours of use. They have a few flaws that I have experienced, one being a quiet but obnoxious clicking sound in my left ear that I have chalked up to the tip not making full contact with the top of my ear canal, and quickly sticking and unsticking to it when doing things like driving or walking. Another is sometimes I have issues with the connection to my device. About once every 30 connections, usually when putting them away and quickly pulling them back out, the earbuds will connect but not produce any audio causing me to have to put them back in the case before using them. A different connection issue I have noticed is if I have had one earbud in my ear and I put the other in, sometimes the audio will sound split between the two almost like the audio is slightly off sync. Lastly for the connection issues, I have only experienced this two or three times, they will go unbalanced and will make the audio louder in the right vs the left or vise versa. The passthrough sounds good for the most part, even blocking out loud sounds, but once there are high pitched noises such as birds chirping or whistling, it creates a slight but noticeable static for the duration of the noise.Ver másVer menos

well done sony!
just to preface, i am no professional musician or sound engineer. i love music and have been infatuated with audio all my life and have used a wide variety of higher-end audio products in the past. with that said, i have not been in the market for bluetooth noise-cancelling in-ear buds since my airpod pros i purchased back in 2020, which were excellent by the way (rip :')).overall, highly highly recommend this product to anyone looking for what i would consider premium earbuds in this category of price/features. it is superb in every facet, and although the only real thing i am comparing it to are the 2020 airpod pros, i do not regret a cent i spent on this product. i have however only had the product for a few days now, so maybe updates to follow?now for the nitty gritty for anyone interested...appearance: sleek, lightweight, very pretty design in my opinion. the case is solid but still lightweight, and i would not question the durability of sony products; they usually know what they're doing when they put their name behind it. we can always wish for smaller, more discrete designs in products like this, but i am beyond satisfied by their looks and probably durability.fit: perfect. the tips are made from these foam-like materials (no material science engineer here) and they expand in your ears once you put them in. very comfortable, and advantage for anyone who has silicon allergies and have irritation from tips made of other materials. they give you four different sizes for the tips, and i would imagine that anyone can find some size that would be of good fit for them. extremely comfortable, and i have worn them all day without noticing they were in my ears. actually insane. i haven't worked out in them yet, but when i'm going about my daily activities like walking, making sudden movements or moving patients (i work in healthcare), sweating, zero concern about them falling out.sound: superior. once again, no professional by any means, but the highs are awesome and lows are deep, pronounced, and banging. voices are crystal clear in music and phone calls. the equalizer feature in the app (will talk more later) is excellent too and very true to intention. sony always makes excellent audio products, and no disappointment or setback here in the slightest. beautiful sound in any genre of music/shows i listen to and watch, one or two ears in. also a plus, crystal clarity at low volumes too, so my volume is always less than a third of total level.noise canceling: honestly ideal for my purpose in using this product. it's not deafening, and i can reduce all the noises in the background that i don't want to hear but still hear all the acute and nearby sounds. absolutely perfect for working environments or when you are not just trying to hibernate or isolate completely. you won't go deaf to outside noises like some over the ear phones and bose products will, but additional customization for sound cancelling features (will discuss again later) make this even awesome-er.mic: i have not heard my voice in recording or phone call, but i have heard zero complaints about my audio quality to listeners. i know for a fact i cannot say this for other products in the past, but i cannot say anything negative about this as far as the time of this review, with one or two ears.controls: one of my favorite features here. i think some of the galaxy buds i had in the past had these way too way back when, but different controls for each ear via touch. left bud toggles noise-canceling features, right bud controls play/stop/prev/next and calls. i can see people may complain that they touch the controls accidentally, since they are not haptic based (like the airpod pros that i had previously) but i've had zero issues with this. you just have to make sure you grip the pods on the sides and stay clear of the touch sensors, which really are not too sensitive.battery life: once again, new product, new review. so far, i've been able to wear them ALL day practically with intermittent return to case and they've held up no problem. the case also holds charge extremely well. i'm sure battery life declines over time, as these products often do, but primo for now.other features: app has tons of features that are not just gimmicks and true to function. equalizer settings like i mentioned before which function very well, and customization for noise-canceling/audio quality. there is a "background music" mode that allows you to even more passively listen to music, being able to hear conversations and surroundings with still very clearly audible music. i've used other pods with these features, but sony does this flawlessly. there are also other features that enable adjustments to sound when conversation is detected which is neat and works well.may be missing a few things, but if you made it to the end of this, congrats! overall, WELL DONE SONY!
