Listen to the story
Sony is officially launching WH-1000xm6 wireless headphones on 16 May. The announcement was leaked after a details of the WH-1000XM5 sequel through an alleged Amazon listing in Spain and leaked a bit-fans and facilities-online. It is not immediately clear that they are coming to India at the same time or after some time.
As often happens, Sony has not shared any concrete details yet. The teaser for the launch has a silhouette of the headphone that gives very familiar vibes, not surprising that Sony made some very large designs – and functional – XM5. Leak listing, also, suggests similarly. Expected within large upgrade.
According to the leakage, Sony is-can-in search of the Amp to cancel the active noise in XM6 with the next generation QN3 HD, which is called seven times faster than the QN1 inside the XM5. The XM5 had two chips, QN1 and V1. The latter was used especially to make noise on high frequencies. We are not sure that XM6 also has a dual-chip setup, or just the alleged QN3 is doing all heavy lifting. The new chip is also expected to help in the production of better sound.
There are two more important updates. The XM6 headphones are asked to facilitate six “AI-operated” microphones to enable more clear calling in a busy environment. Sony headphones are also sticking along with keeping jack, a quality life feature that is becoming obsolete on rapid headphones (after smartphones). Finally, we can also expect some extent to rating water resistance (IP5) that was missing in XM5.
Somewhere else, the battery life is still rated in 30 hours, like the last few generations of the-1000xm headphone. The quick charging also appears on the charging card, promises a three-hour playback after a 3-minute top-up, similar to the current-generation model. Dual crossing, which has the ability to pair together with two devices and LDAC support, must be given at this point.
The XM5 headphone look was polarizing. It was easy to see that Sony borrowed a page from Bose’s book, even with Apple, a chassis, which completely flat and one-way twist to complete the case that took more space during storage. He had some premium deficiency of his predecessor – XM4 – all were going for plastic and there were no metal/copper accents to speak.
