Sony has officially introduced the latest version of its popular wireless headphones, the WH-1000XM6. As the successor to the WH-1000XM5, this new model brings several exciting upgrades — including improved sound quality, smarter noise cancelling, and a more convenient, foldable design.

Foldable Again and Easier to Carry

One of the most-wanted features has made a comeback: the WH-1000XM6 headphones are now foldable again! This makes them super easy to pack and carry, especially for travelers or commuters who need compact gear on the go.

The design has also been refined with foldable earcups, a wider headband for better comfort, a new power button, a dedicated microphone control button, and a smaller magnetic carrying case that’s still sturdy and protective.

Smarter Noise Cancelling with AI

If you love listening to music in noisy environments, this headphone is a great pick. The WH-1000XM6 is now equipped with 12 microphones for noise cancelling — a big upgrade from the 8 mics found on the previous model.

Even better, Sony uses AI technology to automatically adjust the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) based on your surroundings. So whether you're in a café, airplane, or office, you’ll get a more immersive and disturbance-free experience.

Upgraded Sound Quality with New Driver

Sony has also added a new audio driver that delivers clearer, more detailed sound. Whether you’re into rock, jazz, or podcasts, the WH-1000XM6 brings out rich tones and crisp audio that enhances your listening pleasure.

Long Battery Life + Fast Charging

Battery life is still top-notch:

  • Up to 30 hours of playback with noise cancelling turned on

  • Up to 40 hours without noise cancelling

And here’s the bonus — just 3 minutes of fast charging gives you up to 3 hours of listening time. So you won’t be stuck without music even if you forget to charge.

You can even listen to music while charging, but you'll need to use both a USB-C cable and a 3.5mm audio jack at the same time.

Price and Availability

The Sony WH-1000XM6 is priced at $450 (around IDR 7.3 million), which is $50 more than the 2022 model.

It comes in three stylish color options:

  • Elegant Black

  • Modern Silver

  • Classy Dark Blue

The WH-1000XM6 is a well-rounded upgrade that offers top-tier sound, intelligent noise cancelling, and a user-friendly design. Whether you're working, traveling, or just relaxing with your favorite playlist, these headphones are built to deliver a premium audio experience.

Yes, they’re a bit pricier — but with all the added features and improved comfort, they’re a solid investment for anyone serious about great sound.
