I was spending way too much time on my phone, so I went out and got another one...

Side question: How do you like the Sony WH-1000XM6? I have the XM4 version and can't figure out from reviews if the noise-passthrough mode and ANC are noticeably better?The XM3 noise-passthrough mode is really bad, wheres the Jabra Evolve65 Flex (call headset) for example makes it sound like im not

#Need real-world feedback - considering returning Sony XM6

I'd love some real-world feedback while I consider returning my XM6. I used to have AirPods Max (lightning port) that I sold due to its weight and port as I try to move to a USB-C only setup. I couldn't stand the case and the weight.

Px7 S3 - A bittersweet goodbye.

I have the px8 s2 and my wife has the px7 s3. Were In love with both pairs. I bought and returned the Sony xm6, the Bose quiet comfort 2, and the AirPod max. I think they both blow all of them away. Also we just both wore both on 4 flights and they blocked out almost all sound. You just have to have

Dica pra quando for comprar fone com ANC: não confie nas fabricantes

Atenuação máxima não te conta nada sobre a performance geral, é um dado anedótico Atenuação máxima do Edifier W820NB Plus é a mesma do Sony WH-1000XM6 Você vai dizer que eles tem a mesma performance de ANC?
