The big news earbuds release on the horizon is the Sony WF-1000XM6, which are expected to drop any day now – it's looking like February 12th is the day, based on Sony's teaser. Like its predecessor, the Sony WF-1000XM5, this will be Sony's top-end earbuds offering, matching its over-ear counterpart, the Sony WH-1000XM6. It’s been almost three years since the last-gen pair came out, so they’ve been long-awaited.
Rumors about these imminent buds are everywhere, so we're cleaning a little space on our best earbuds shelf in case they live up to expectations. We’ve seen a full spec list leak, and some price details which point to a higher cost than before – and Sony is very unsubtly indicating a February 12th, 8am PST (11am EST / 4pm GMT) launch time, plus seeming a sneaky look at the design.
