I got the refurbished version (New, but the packaging was damaged). Noise cancelling was fantastic. It is light enough that you can wear it all day and it doesn’t really bother you (if you position it on your head right of course). It does have a bit of a clamping force initially which can make it a bit uncomfortable to wear as it is pressing on the side of your head a lot but that naturally goes away after a week of wearing and “breaking them in”. Generally I would say the earcups are big enough for most ears and it was enough for mine and the padding is decent as well. I’m sure they could’ve added a bit more padding to make it more comfortable but it really is fine enough for me. Sound quality was terrible out of the box but the app allows you to change the EQ settings of the headphones and after I adjusted it to my liking it was incredible. It has a cool feature that I use a lot; cinema mode which really amps up the sound to give you a cinema like experience when you watch movies. The build quality is sturdy but I’ve only had it for a month so I can’t say much more about that. A bit on the pricier side but I am trusting that it wont have the hinge issues that it’s predecessors had and that it will last me a while. Overall good upgrade over my XM2s that I had since 2018 (they are still going strong).

These headphones have the best active noise cancelling I’ve used. I’ve upgraded from the XM4 to the XM6 and it’s a massive difference. On top of that, the sound is really good without changing anything – BUT these have smart EQing that lets you select multiple different presets to “test” how good the sound is, which makes it extremely simple and gives you full control over your personal sound profile. They are also very comfortable, I don’t feel the pressure on the headband, even after wearing them for an entire week, whilst commuting to work, whilst gaming and listening to music. The design is really nice and I like the sliding sides as it makes adjusting them very easy.

ANC mogłoby być lepsze
Grają bardzo fajnie, ale jeśli ktoś kupuje je z myślą o ANC, to w moim odczuciu nie mają żadnej przewagi nad starszymi produktami jak Sony WH-1000XM2 czy Apple AirPods Pro2.

Amazing
Incredible product, the noise cancelling is amazing, the app gives you some great features, battery lasts a long time.I’ve used it in the airplane and it’s a game changer when it comes to cancelling all the noise around

I’ve been waiting to purchase these since release but waited for a better price which finally happened! I’ve upgraded from XM3’s so quite a jump in generations.Whilst I can’t comment on the difference between XM4’s and XM5’s, I can say that the upgrade for me is huge. Sound quality is very impressive, I’m hearing new things in songs that ive been listening to for 30 years+. The clarity superb and the various preset EQ’s give a setting for every type of music. Obviously you also have manual EQ if you prefer to set your own.Noise cancelling is exactly as you would expect from Sony and is superb. It’s not leagues above the old XM3 but what has improved way beyond my expectations, is pass-through. It’s honestly like you’re not wearing them when you activate it.They might not be as comfy to wear as my old XM3’s – the headband isn’t as soft and they do clamp a little tighter. Don’t get me wrong, they are still comfortable and I have worn for a few hours at a time with no issues.The newly designed case is excellent and the folding feature makes the overall package much smaller and easier to carry.Yes they are expensive, but they are amazing headphones and in my opinion worth the £330 I paid.

Recently purchased these after owning a pair of xm4sWatched a lot of YouTube reviews on these and they got great reviews so wanted to buy a pair and see for myself.First impressions was the magnetic case which is quite cool. No more zips.After trying the headphones on I could tell that the headband was not as soft as the xm4 headphones. Much less padding making it not as comfortable for someone with not much hair. Also the clamping force as others have said is more on this headphone. I wouldn’t say its “uncomfortable” as such, but just not as comfortable as the xm4. After 10 minutes of use you can really feel that you are wearing these headphones vs the lightweightness of the xm4s. I also think the angle of the cups are such that they are in contact with each other all the time. Unsure if this will soften up over time. Can see from picture the differences.Regarding the sound I compared both side by side listening toa range of songs on Spotify with the highest audio setting. I would say the sound is slightly better on the xm6 in that its more clear and things seem more pronounced. Also helps within the sony app that there is now 10 bar eq vs 5 with the xm4 so can be tuned better to the required sound that you like.I also like the different sound stages with cinema mode and background music, think thats quite a good little extra.Noise cancellation is slightly improved over xm4 however wouldn’t say its drastically improved. Did a few tests with background sounds on (eg having fan on and other sounds too) and the xm6 completely removed the sound whereas xm4 could faintly hear the noises but not massively different in my opinion.The transparency/ambient mode to me was a lot better. No more muffled sound like with the xm4s. Could easily and clearly hear the sound around you.Not tested making a call with these on as didnt buy them for this purpose so can’t really comment on this.I think the xm6s look more modern and sleek vs the older xm4s.There is also a more protruding mic in the headphones of the xm6s. I didnt notice it myself when I tried them on however you can see it if you look closely in the headphones.Pros✅️Great sounding quality✅️Anc and ambient mode are great✅️Look stylish and modern✅️They foldCons❌️Price❌️Clamping force❌️Not as comfortable as older xm4Overall I only had the headphones for one day and returned unfortunately and will be using the xm4s which is a shame as I was looking forward to these and wanted to like them more. To me if im upgrading an item it needs to have all the benefits of the last model and the extra benefits and features of the latest model. For me it wasn’t there. The headband alone made it too uncomfortable to use for longer than 30 minutes at a time. I’d also say ignoring the price if they were both the same price id still pick the xm4s as would rather have more comfort and for it to have less clamping force vs the extra benefits of the xm6s.Hope this helps anyway. Just being honest and happy to share my thoughts.

Sony vs Bose vs JBL = SONY XM6 GOD MODE NOISE CANCELLING…
I tried: Sony vs Bose vs JBLSony XM5 and XM6Bose – Bose QuietComfort Ultra Bluetooth and Standard QuiteComfortJBL – JBL Tour One M3but BY NOISE CANCELLING… MAMA MIA… Sony XM6 are GODMODE… Bose and JBL = NOT EVEN CLOSE…Sony XM6 is like 10 out of 10 for noise Cancelling… Bose would be like 7.5 to 8, JBL would be 6 …Noise cancelling on these is ULTRA good… much much better than XM5 and anything I ever tried…EXAMPLE: A visitor to my office was ‘looking for me’ and I had them on… he came up to me and was calling my name… I did NOT hear him at ALL… people had to message me on Slack to tell me that there ‘was a visitor behind me’ calling my name… I did NOT hear him at ALL… even though he was standing right behind me…if you have Music playing and these ON… YOU WILL HEAR NOTHING except for Music…XM6 = GOD MODE NOISE CANCELLING = Confirmed!ps: By sound, I prefered JBL… I tweeked Sony Equalizer and got very close to JBL… also it depends on what ‘song’ is playing… sometimes Sony had better sound, sometimes JBL…also on Sony, ‘out of the box’ ‘clamping force’ was a LOT stronger than JBL and Bose… but overtime they ‘losenned up’ and all is good… took me around 2 days for them to ‘losen’ up…
