The XM6 buds have been a mostly positive experience. I've been wearing them for a few hours now after using the XM5 buds for a while and you can immediately notice that they are a lot better. The noise canceling is top notch, you won't find better. Also, with the right equalizer settings, the audio quality sometimes sounds better than even a B&W PX8. The wearing comfort is also nice, if you are a fan of Foam Tips I would definitely recommend these earbuds. The pity is that ultimately they are not that much better than the XM5 buds, so I would especially recommend getting them when they drop in price a bit.

Coming from Jabra elite 4actives as my daily, the experience has been amazing. The sound quality and ANC are on another planet. Also a big fan of the foam eartips, they fit more snuggly and are more comfortable then silicone ones for me.
The only let down is the batterylife, the earbuds themselves last 4-6 hours on their own at low to medium volume with anc. That is acceptable as I can charge them during lunch. But the case I feel like is always on the charger and is empty quite quickly.
But i guess if that is the biggest problem with the product, I won't complain!

I usually don't feel like writing a review, but I made an exception this time. I can write this review in blissful silence while sitting on the train. My music volume is low, but it doesn't have to drown anything out. If you are still wondering whether noise canceling is really necessary in a pair of earbuds, please give these a try. You will be amazed, just like me, and won't want anything else. They have always fit well in my ears, and I never felt like they could fall out. In terms of fit, it took a bit of searching for the right eartips, but ultimately, the smallest ones work best for me. The case fits easily in my pocket and charges the earbuds neatly until I can use them again. I certainly do not regret this purchase and would recommend them to everyone.
