Sony’s WH-1000XM6 headphones plummet to an all new low price
You probably saw that Best Buy’s gone early for Black Friday, but what about Amazon — any decent Black Friday deals around there?
Actually, yes, and this one’s a biggie. Right now, you can get the superb Sony WH-1000XM6 noise-canceling over-ear headphones for just $378 (was $459) at Amazon!

A quick note on the deal: this time last year, we saw these excellent class-leading headphones drop to $398, which was pretty special at the time. But this? This is next-level good and it’s not even Black Friday week (or weekend!) yet.
Will the price drop even further? I doubt it, honestly — if anything, retailers have in the past been known to actually boost prices a touch, just before discounting them on Black Friday. To me, it seems more likely that retailers are simply following suit with this particular discount because, as you’ll see below, the deal is also live at a big competing online store…

You only need a quick glance over our Sony WH-1000XM6 review to see how highly we rate these Sony flagship headphones.
That being said, if you really need more fully-fledged odes and comparison pieces for these excellent headphones, there’s plenty you can sift through. You can, for instance, check out how the Sony WH-1000XM6 stack up against the Apple AirPods Max 2. Or, read up on what they’re like against the Sony WH-1000XM5, or perhaps how they compare to the excellent Sonos Ace Ultra.
In fact, my colleague Harry Padoan has made it his mission to even pit these Sonys against five top-tier rivals from heavy-hitters such as Bose and Bowers & Wilkins. But if that’s all a bit TLDR, know this: the Sony cans you came here to read about come off very well indeed, across the board.
Personally, I adore the little things about the design here. Despite being lovely large over-ears, the XM6 fold up for easier transport in their hard-shell case — it’s a small thing, but the XM5 didn’t do it and these do. For me, it matters.
Sony’s ambient sound mode also doesn’t get the recognition it deserves, but if you suddenly need to hear noises around you, no cans I’ve tried do better. Finally, we need to talk about Sony’s ANC. It’s very, very good indeed and never colors your music unnecessarily. Oh, and by all means, here’s our Sony WH-1000XM6 review again, if you need to know more on any of this.
After all, there’s a bit of time before Black Friday, so these cans probably won’t sell out at this super-low price. Not much time, you understand. But some…
