Sony fans rejoice! The next entry in the flagship WF-1000X series is less than a week away. The brand just posted a teaser for a new earbud launch set for February 12. This comes three weeks after the launch of the LinkBuds Clip.
Sony’s last flagship pair of earbuds – the WF-1000XM5 launched all the way back in 2023, so their successors are long overdue. A recent leak from earlier this week gave us our first look at the XM6s.

They are set to bring an updated design with the buds appearing wider than their predecessors and sporting an additional microphone grille. Their case also seems larger than the one on the XM5s.

While we don’t have detailed specs for now, we do know the XM6s will feature an IPX4 ingress protection and will be available in at least two colors – black and silver. They are expected to retail around the $300-$350 range.
