New Sony-Rausch-candidate headphone specifications and price works apparently lick

It seems that Sony is preparing to produce his high-end consumer successor to the WH-1000XM5 noise headphones and possibly very soon, such a new leak from deals via Android Authority.

Sony started the WH-1000XM5 three years ago in May 2022 and marked the longest time from one generation to another since the line was introduced in 2016. The series has always balanced a mixture of function, comfort and sound, which it has held on many top noise-canceling headphone lists, including Cnets.

The new headphones were discovered for the first time by a Reddit user, who found a seeded Amazon Spain list, in which the specifications and the pricing of the latest over-ear headphones were described. In the three years in which a new pair of headphones were preserved from this line -up, it is fairly easy to assume that improves all over the line.

What is new in the WH-1000XM6?

Here is the alleged official description and functional list on the original page after they have been translated:

• The flagship model with the best noise suppression of Sony and the best ambient sound mode of all EAR headphones.
• With the new QN3 HD frenzy processor and 12 microphones, our Multi -Rausch -Senor technology with automatic NC optimizers offers optimal performance everywhere.
• Developed with grammy-coated mastering engineers, 30 mm drivers, hi-res-audio, Dseer Extreme, to improve any track, and an adaptable 10-band EQ.
• The Sony WH-1000XM6 folds flat for simple storage and transport. The new case offers protection with a magnetic closure for quick access.
• The new headband is even more comfortable and safer for all -day wear than the predecessor model with soft, padded ear pillows for a first -class feeling.
• A quick 3-minute fee delivers 3 hours of entertainment, and you can even use the WH-1000XM6 while charging.
• 360 UPMIX for cinema transforms stereo content into an immersive sound and comes from the sides, behind it and over it. Game EQ improves clarity and details during the gameplay.
• With six AI-driven microphones, calls are crystal clear, even in the most busy environments. AI cut -out reduction filters undesirable noises
• With a multipoint connection, you can switch seamlessly between your Bluetooth devices, including iPhone, Android, PC and Mac
• Adaptive sound control, quick attention, background music, personalized spatial audio, wind noise reduction, 360 -reality audio with head tracking and speaking with chat.

Let us collapse.

According to the leaked specifications, the Sony 1000xM6 headphones try to improve their predecessors with a new QN3 -HD -Rausch -Rausch -Slung processor from the QN1 processor in XM5S.

The headphones are apparently sent with 12 microphones – six of which are operated by AI to improve call quality and reduce unwanted noises. Like its predecessor, the latest headphones are shipped with a car-rush-in-air-optimizer. CNET had already crowned the XM5S as headphones for noises to collect for great calls, and the latest version wants to strengthen what was already great.

The quick charging is still intact, the leak shows and a 3-minute fee can deliver 3 hours of “entertainment”, as the description says, but if true, these details are likely to be ironed out during the official announcement. In contrast, Dealabs' report is claimed that a 3-minute fee provides 1-hour battery life.

Most older functions are apparently available in the latest version of the headphones. The Signature Touch controls the earphones and the half-detached talk about the chat function, which is repeatedly committed to my 1000xM4s, together with the 3.5 mm headphone socket and the support for HI-Res-Audio.

The 1000xM6s receives the bump of the Bluetooth version 5.3 compared to 5.2 in the 1000xM5 headphones and will also be a negligible 4 gram more than the older version, which occurs at 254 grams.

Pricing and availability

The new headphones will apparently be available in three colors, including black, platinum silver and midnight blue.

The official announcement is also not far away, it seems. On the basis of OFF Dealab's own information, the Sony 1000xM6 will be presented at some point between May 14 and 16, 2025, which corresponds to the timing of May 15 on the screen grave of the Amazon leak.
