Sony’s WH-1000XM6 noise-canceling headphones are currently available at Amazon for $378, an $82 discount from their usual $460 price and their lowest price so far, according to the supplied report.
Released in 2025, the headphones feature a foldable design and compact carrying case. Sony lists battery life of up to 30 hours, while a three-minute charge can provide up to three hours of playback. The report also describes their sound as studio-quality and says they are designed for use during commutes, flights and work sessions.
The WH-1000XM6 use 12 built-in microphones and Sony’s QN3 processor for noise cancellation that adjusts to surrounding sound, air pressure and how the headphones are being worn. An Auto Ambient Sound Mode can let in more of the environment when users need to stay aware of nearby activity.
For audio playback, the headphones support LDAC, which the report says transmits about three times more data than standard Bluetooth for wireless high-resolution audio. Sony developed their drivers with mastering engineers, according to the source, with the aim of delivering clear instruments and rich vocals.
