Building on the world-renowned sound quality of our award-winning 1000X series wireless headphones, the WF-1000XM6 has been co-developed with Grammy Award-winning mastering engineers to take the flagship earbuds even further.

Every element has been crafted for audio excellence.

Featuring Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification, the earbuds are ideal for enjoying high-resolution, lossless audio from compatible streaming services. DSEE Extreme upscales compressed tracks, restoring detail close to true hi-res quality.

The WF-1000XM6 has been engineered for a superior wearing experience.

Using extensive ear shape data collected from around the world, Sony has developed an enhanced ergonomic design that delivers the most secure and comfortable fit of any 1000X series earbuds.

A new ventilation structure allows air to flow more freely, reducing the blocked-ear feeling and minimising internal sounds like footsteps or chewing, while IPX4 sweat and splash resistance supports comfortable listening during workouts, commutes, and everyday use.

To help you get the best fit, the Sony | Sound Connect app includes wearing condition checks that guide you to the correct earbud tip size and positioning, ensuring maximum comfort, stability, and sound quality.
