Sony WF-1000XM6 specs leak, here's what's improved compared to the previous generation
Sony is set to unveil its WF-1000XM6 earbuds on February 12, but a leak has already laid out the key changes. The new buds reportedly use a QN3e processor said to be three times faster than the chip in the WF-1000XM5. Sony has also increased the microphone count to eight adaptive mics in total, four per earbud, up from three per side in the previous model.
The WF-1000XM6 is said to feature new drivers and support for LDAC, DSEE Extreme, a 10-band equalizer, Auracast, Multipoint, Fast Pair, and Swift Pair. Battery life is listed at around eight hours from the earbuds themselves, with the charging case providing two extra full charges. These changes suggest Sony is focusing on stronger noise control, better connectivity, and more tuning options rather than radical design shifts.
