Roland Quandt has shared his thoughts on the WH-1000XM6 after it appeared on Apple’s Made for iPhone/iPod/iPad (MFi) database this week. This MFi certification led us to suspect that more significant leaks might be on the horizon. Quandt suggests that this could indeed be true.
Awaiting Details on WH-1000XM6
Sadly, the well-known leaker hasn’t shared any images or detailed specifications for Sony’s eagerly awaited WH-1000XM5 successors (current price $398 on Amazon). He only hinted that the WH-1000XM6 will be released ‘soon’. While Quandt hasn’t clarified when this might happen, previous rumors have indicated that the launch could occur in the first or second week of May.
Color Options and Price Increase
According to Quandt, Sony plans to release the WH-1000XM6 in Black, Silver, and Midnight Blue, matching earlier leaks. Additionally, he mentions that the price for these high-end over-ear headphones will likely increase by around 10%. It remains uncertain whether Quandt refers to the current price of the WH-1000XM5 or its original price. If it’s the former, then the new WH-1000XM6 might retail for about €339 in Europe. On the other hand, an increase from the original MSRP of the WH-1000XM5 could mean a price closer to €460 for the WH-1000XM6.
