Sony WH-1000XM6 Headphones Hit Record Low Price
The Sony WH-1000XM6 noise-canceling headphones are currently available at their lowest price ever, offering a meaningful discount on the premium audio experience. Released in 2023, the XM6 model builds upon the success of its predecessors, the WH-1000XM5 (released in 2022), delivering noticeable improvements in both sound quality and noise cancellation.
The headphones feature a new QN3 audio processor and a total of 12 microphones - including six beam-forming mics – for enhanced noise cancellation. Improvements also extend to ergonomics, with earcups that fold inwards for easier storage in a smaller carrying case. Sony states the XM6 headphones provide up to 30 hours of battery life, with a quick 3-minute USB-C charge yielding up to 3 hours of playback.
while older generations like the XM5 and XM4 remain viable options, the XM6’s advancements in sound, noise cancellation, and portability make it a compelling upgrade for those within budget.
