Price and Availability
Sony’s wireless WH‑1000XM6 headphones are on sale for $398 via Amazon—a record‑low price that drops $62 from the original tag. The discount applies to all three colorways.
Features
- Advanced active noise cancellation (ANC) with 12 microphones distributed throughout the ear cups.
- A brand‑new chip powers the ANC system, delivering effective blocking of background noise at medium and high frequencies, including the human voice.
Sound Quality
- New audio drivers paired with a team of mastering engineers for fine‑tuned performance.
- Perforations in the driver’s voice coil extend high‑frequency reproduction, resulting in an extremely pleasing listening experience.
Design and Comfort
- Updated design compared to the previous iteration.
- Extremely comfortable for long listening sessions, an important factor for headphones.
Battery Life
- Offers around 30 hours of playback, which is a fairly standard metric for this type of device.
Verdict
The only real major nitpick is the original asking price. While $460 is a tough sell for any headphones, the sub‑$400 price point makes the WH‑1000XM6 a much more attractive option.
