  • BEST Bluetooth headphones I have ever used...
Style: Midnight Blue
I just received my new Sony XM6 headphones about two hours ago. Can't remember ever writing a review this fast after getting a new toy. And I do not write reviews for most items we buy. But dude, these are sooo sweet. I have been a Bose user for at least the past two decades. I have several pairs of the QC noise canceling line. I have tried others but I find the Bose headphones work well and are easy to use and always connect; no hiccups. Two years back I bought a pair of Sony XM4 headphones when they were on sale. They are decent and they sound nice but I ended up liking my many sets of Bose headphones better so the XM4s stayed in a drawer. I wear headphones a lot when working on projects. I use the hell out of my headphones. I don't baby them. Lawn work, snow removal, chainsaw work, excermacise, gaming, house work, travel, etc. Lately I have trashed 2 pair of my Bose cans so I thought I would buy a new pair. These XM6 phones are new and sounded good so I thought I would try Sony again. Reviews are very positive thus far. Let me tell you these rock. Music sounds fantastic. The noise canceling is super good. Best I have heard (or not heard as may be). The set up was easy. You can connect with Bluetooth right away or use the Sony Connect app. I am not a fan of signing up for accounts to use my devices but the Sony app seems to be very useful. I also have never cared for the gesture control on headphones. In the past I have not used them. The new Sony's controls are way easy and work well. Up for more volume, down for less, forward for next track, backward for last track. But the main reason for the quick review is this... Laying on the sofa next to me is a sexy girl who just finished a 16 hour ICU shift and crashed. I wanted to watch FUBAR on Netflix (new season just dropped) but didn't want to wake her. I turned on Apple TV, turned on the new Sony headphones, clicked to settings/Bluetooth on TV and they connected right away. Started Netflix and the show and it sounds great. When I remove the headphones the Apple TV pauses, put them back on and the show starts up again. Set the Sonys to Heavy in EQ and the bass is super. Dialogue is clear and actions sound fantastic. I am very happy I took a chance on the new XM6. They are MUCH better than the XM4 model I have. And better than any of the Bose I have. I walked into the living room two rooms away and the connection stayed clear and connected as I walked around the house. The price is a touch high but they are new. The first time these get to $399, I will have another pair. Plan to phase out all of my old headphones and just use these. So far they are the best wireless headphones I have used. By far... ... show more

  • Very good at everything. Hands down the best case. Sounds good too
Style: Black
They're just good at everything and actually sound pretty good now too. Noise cancelling works very well. Sony has always been good at reducing common noises without the feeling of being in an airplane cabin. While Apple is fine too, Bose sometimes gave me that cabin pressure feeling. The transparency mode is much better now and on par with Apple. Microphone is very good for meetings. It really removes all the fan noise, office environment, and lawn worker noises. Fit and comfort works for me. I don't have giant ears, but I've always preferred headphones that don't touch my ears. These are just barely big enough for that. My head is on the smaller side, but the clamp holds the headphone up well and doesn't need a lot of pressure on the top head band to stay in place. Maybe a little more head padding or wider head band would be better but not really an issue for me. Being pretty light helps a lot here. XM4 style folding is back. It's seriously better than the XM5s. Travels so much easier. BUT they will pinch you when unfolding if you're not paying attention. The Sony doesn't pull out hair like some other headphones do. Two device bluetooth that just works. Laptop, phone, apple tv, whatever. Charges really fast. Zipperless case is amazing! It's just so simple and easy. Also, the pouch that holds accessories, like the cable and plugs actually hold! The cables and adapters from the XM4 case were always falling out. Don't even get me started on the Apple "case". They sound good! The XM3 and XM4 both sounded... fine. I swapped to more comfortable pads on both of those when I had them and it also helped improve the sound (less bass bloat). The Apple and Bose both sound good also, but the Sony app has a 10-band equalizer now which makes it so much easier to make it sound how you actually like it. While it's still not a fully adjustable EQ, it's good enough and makes a huge difference. I don't understand why this isn't standard for every powered headphone. The appearance and feel is exactly what I want. These are travel and work headphones. I don't want ridiculous bling or branding. I'm not trying to make a fashion statement. I don't want a huge "steal me" sign on my head. These blend in and I'm totally happy about that. They also feel "fine" which again is perfect for when I don't really want to think about how I'm treating my daily drive headphones. I have some very nice headphones which stay home, and I treat like art. That's not what the Sony's are for. I'm not worried when I bump then into things or just set them down on a desk or toss onto a piece of furniture. I don't need a more premium look for feel. These are great headphones and easily the best Sony XMs yet. ... show more
