I'm hoping the price drops that low on their ebay store too. Here's what Secondipity said about warranty:
For Sony products, we only offer a 90 day policy. The first 30 days, you qualify for a return for a full refund or replacement and after the 30 days for the remaning 60 days, you qualify only for a replacement only. After 90 days of delivery, your order does not qualify for refund or replacements. Any additional extended warranty you purchase at check out, will be through a third party company.

Super tempting and my WH1000XM3s have held up for 6 and a half years now...but not sure I trust a 90-day warranty on a $300 product.

Same, XM3s still working amazingly. Got them brand new off a SlickDeal years ago. Still very happy with my purchase 4 years later.

It'll probably be around $220 around the black friday. That's my guess.
nope, not this year
It was $243 just two months after the release. black friday sale + coupon would easily make it around $220

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank holysin

In case it's helpful for anyone a reminder, that the XM5 (by this same seller, on ebay) refurbished regularly go under $200 with a 2 year 3rd party warranty. Currently they're $190 after $10 displayed coupon code "YUSFSIX8CM9GRBCM". I bought a set from them/there for $230 in the same refurbished / 2 yr warranty condition 7-4-23 and with daily (couple mile walk, occasional yard work, etc) use am still loving them today, I just reactivated my watch as the 2 yr warranty has expired and I wanted to keep an eye on the market. The XM4 models are a bit cheaper and right now the same seller has the silver XM4, which some prefer, on sale with the 2 yr warranty for $135 with the same coupon code

Also if it helps settle the mind, the refurbished warranty *most likely* covers hinge issue unlike the shorter sony warranty. I haven't verified since I bought it, but 2 yrs ago it was covered, and I've not needed it. Mine aren't ever folded, they're left either on my head or on top of the freezer by the door in "open" mode...

XM5: https://www.ebay.com/itm/266402562371 (check their other listings for other colors at the same price, just make sure it's ebay refurbished)
XM4: https://www.ebay.com/itm/274777634255 (only silver at this price, other colors are more.)

How different is it to XM4? My xm4 is very uncomfortable so I am looking to upgrade, but there is no deal on bose qc ultra, is this close when it comes to comfort to Bose?

I have the xm5 I got from this store refurb years ago and I never use it. The headband hurts my head after more than 30 minutes. Apparently other people have the same problem. Not sure if the xm6 fixes that. Tried the headband sleeve which helps a little bit but still hurts after a while. And the sleeve makes it super bulky

Otherwise the sound quality is good and ANC is good. But I just can't get over the comfort or lack of.

I have xm3 and xm4 - (bought from Secondipity) - Best is to have two sets of these headphones so you never have one out of battery and also it prolongs the wear. The XM3s will also be the ones I take camping, walks, on a road trip, etc while the xm4s stay home safe and clean. But, my xm3s from 2019 have basically been stolen by my wife so... I think I need another set.. hmm. I want these xm6s..

Same here, bought just before Covid hit in the fall of 2019. They've been the best headphones I've ever used, and passed down the Bose to the wife. I've traveled around the world with these, and around the yard many times on the riding lawnmower. The ANC is so good it completely blocks out the lawnmower noise and the sound quality is amazing. Can't say enough good things about the XM3s.

I'm eyeballing these XM6s for no other reason than to have the newest shiny object. I'm sure the tech has been improved, but can't imagine them being too much better than they already are.

However, these physical redesigns have me concerned:
- That new hinge design looks suspect...the thicker XM3 band doesn't bother me at all, in fact, it's a reassuring peace of mind.
- Some of these comments about shallower/narrower earcups is concerning too. I can wear the XM3s for hours at a time with no fatigue whatsoever.

I wore my XM6s for the bulk of two 10hr flights and wasn't bothered at all, but no two heads are the same so YMMV.

I was watching these for a long time, but I'm really put off by the reports of broken hinges on these XM6s. I'm still on the fence and will probably hold off for now.
It's a ridiculous complaint. I've used these hundreds of times and the hinges are solid. people sit on the headphones and they might break on occasion. Not a design flaw. They are awesome

I need to get new pads for mine. I started running with them outside. They work fine, but I think all the sweat has worn out the pads faster than the years of just normal wear. At least new pads are only like $20.
