Sony's WH 1000XM6 is being discussed as a brand new, authorized eBay listing for Sony's flagship noise canceling headphones, with up to 30 hour battery life, quick charging, multipoint, and app support. The strongest draw is the familiar XM series sound and noise cancellation, with several comparisons saying it sounds essentially the same as the XM5. The coupon can be finicky, sometimes only showing the discount at checkout, and warranty coverage is debated even though the seller is described as authorized. Fragile hinge complaints and limited gaming improvements with LE Audio are the main cautions, making it a solid fit if those tradeoffs are acceptable.

Common Questions (5)

  • The eBay listing is described as brand new with USA warranty, and the seller is identified as an authorized Sony dealer. The listing also states Sony 1-year warranty, which is the key detail for warranty coverage on this deal.

  • The coupon may need to be applied at checkout by clicking the HOLIDAYRUSH checkbox, and the cart may not show the discount until the checkout page. For the black model, applying the coupon before adding to cart can still work, but the discount only appears at checkout.

  • The XM6 is reported to sound identical to the XM5, so it is not a clear sound-quality upgrade. The XM5 is still described as a strong option, and some buyers note the XM6 does not justify replacing it on sound alone.

  • Fragile hinges are a reported concern, with multiple complaints cited about hinge durability. That makes the XM6 a riskier buy if you plan to travel with them or use them heavily.

  • LE Audio support can be difficult to enable on Windows, even on newer Bluetooth chipsets, and audio quality can still drop badly when the mic is active. For gaming, the XM5 with an external mic may be the more practical setup.

That is not true, as long as they are a Sony Authorized Dealer, they get the standard warranty https://us.community.sony.com/s/q...uage=en_US

Maybe you're confusing grey market (unauthorized) ebay sellers or sellers that sell refurbished/used Sony products because those do not include warranty from Sony.

But these are longtime authorized Sony dealers (BuyDig & Electronics Express) selling brand new products. Your receipt will show all the relevant information from eBay like the condition and the seller and such which can be used for your Sony Warranty.

If you have information that says otherwise about a recent change to their policy, please do share, because this is how it's been forever.

I think you are right....
BuyDig is a well-known authorized retailer, and if they are selling through eBay, it's very likely that their products will be covered by Sony's warranty, even if the price is listed only on eBay. The key factor is whether the product is purchased directly from an authorized Sony dealer, not necessarily where the product is sold (eBay, Amazon, etc.).

You realize how ridiculous you sound? Claiming Sony isn't going to honor a warrant from a reputable seller that also sells on their front facing store, because you said so? Someone gave you proof from sonys own website and that's not enough because you said so? Seriously 😂

Thanks for your input here. How would you say the XM6's compare to the XM4's?

I have the XM4 and think they're great! Just curious if the upgrade to the XM6 is worth it.

Thanks again!
To the best of my poor memory's recollection, the Sony WH-1000XM5s were a step up in sound quality from the XM4s. The XM6s sounded identical to me in quality as the XM5s. I would say you'd be pleased by an upgrade to the XM5s or XM6s equivalently. Note the XM5s have some good deals including Costco.

How was the sound compare to xm5? I love my xm5 great fun headphones. So much that I bought the Bose quietcomfot ultra gen 1 and now waiting on thr return shipping label. No competition with the xm5
I found the XM6s to sound identical in quality to the XM5s. I fully agree from my past experiences that the Bose sound quality just doesn't stack up, at least in my personal tastes.

I would never buy a pair of Sony headphones without using a semi-premium American Express card with extended warranty coverage. If Sony gave me any trouble, I would escalate to American Express. I've never had an issue with American Express support covering anything within the terms of their coverage with zero hassle, unlike MasterCard, VISA, or Discover.

Okay, how about when I bought my XM5 from eBay (Beach camera as a seller) 3 years ago, Sony covered the hinge issue repair without any fuss, does that disprove your theory?
