The WH-1000XM6 is Sony's flagship over-ear noise-cancelling headphone, the successor to the WH-1000XM5. It uses 30 mm neodymium drivers, a detachable 1.2 m single-sided cable with a gold-plated L-shaped plug, and a folding design with a carry case. Reviewers rate its noise cancelling and call quality among the best in the class, ahead of Bose's QuietComfort Ultra on features, though the Bose is often judged a touch more comfortable. It suits frequent flyers, commuters and remote workers who want strong ANC, a long feature list and wired backup in one pair.
