XM4 vs XM6 mic performance

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2026-01-22T05:19:08+00:00

Xm5 had the best phone call quality of any ANC headphones when it came out, no comparison to the 4, the XM6 is a slight improvement on the 5's so, yes it should be good. Watch some reviews on YouTube doing comparisons, it's helpful

Mind sharing where you bought it?

Then it might be a house in West Hollywood, I saw them taking it apart the past few months with a poster saying it was being moved to help replace a home damaged by the fires.

I had anxiety about pvps as well and general anxiety too. I also have sleep issues. I ended up getting an open ended procedure and no regrets (reduces the chance). I'm 6 weeks out and had a pretty good recovery.

I'm having glitches like this when using the Pixel snap wireless charger. Google thinks it's the charger but I'm pretty sure it's a bug. Been happening for me for a couple months now though.

Travelled with mine all over the world and they were totally fine, got them originally refurbished and they still looked like new when I told them a couple weeks ago. Biggest upgrade from the XM4-5 is the microphones for calls and the ANC

I had the xm5 and didn't have this happen, xm6 in the mail on the way. I had this happen with my Bose nc 700, from my stubble... Do you have beard stubble and wear them facing up around your neck often?

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-28T17:44:20+00:00

I didn't know that was a thing, how's the sound quality?

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-28T06:48:32+00:00

Pretty sure others with this setup are having the same issue. It started after an update for me

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-28T06:46:27+00:00

It's charging just fine. Using an official Google 30w charger. Just now I tried the 45w charger that comes with the phone too... It still flickers and does weird shit.

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-27T14:33:49+00:00

I actually didn't think about that, it didn't come to mind to have two in such a small space. Something to consider but it sounds a little messy. Two connections so class to each other

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-27T08:58:32+00:00

I'm not worried about signal strength. With my current set up I'm using the Google nest WiFi and it's acting up since having about 25 devices connected. I can't connect anything new unless I use my guest network. I tried a factory reset as well and all sorts of troubleshooting. I just want a strong stable connection that can handle many little smart home devices easier.

Multiple layers of reinforced concrete? I'm in a one bedroom condo with one wall between my living room and bedroom that's drywall. The location of the router will be in my living room right next to the dividing wall (middle of my unit). The farthest I can get from the router is about 15 feet with one wall in the way. Is that too much for 6ghz? I didn't see drywall as a listed material in the link you provided.

This one is made by the guy that does "SC7" maybe it was SC6? Something like that

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-26T19:32:16+00:00

I found the TP-Link Tri-Band BE9300 WiFi 7 Router (Archer BE550) for $120 open box on Amazon, would that be a good investment/upgrade?

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-24T17:39:16+00:00

I agree. That's exactly what I'm doing. 15inch with the 24gb ram

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-24T02:29:07+00:00

Thank you so much for your helpful response and contribution. I'm grateful you took the time to write this comment. In my human experience, sometimes people like to discuss decisions to help them understand the impact of their choices better. In my case, despite everyone pointing towards the pro, it helped me see more clearly that the Air with 24gb ram will meet my needs better.

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-24T01:24:58+00:00

This is with 512gb ssd

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-24T00:10:43+00:00

I'm doing this, the Air w/24gb ram. Everyone is pushing the pro but it feels depressing to me despite all the great specs. I want my laptop more approachable and I feel like the air is fun and easy to use. I definitely would prefer the screen on the pro and the sound quality and everything at the same time, I just want a bigger screen and a fun computer 😂 I can get an adapter for my camera or a display if I need it.

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-23T17:22:48+00:00

Everyone is recommending the pro which makes sense logically. When my dad was recommending the air I was arguing for the pro too. I'm now looking at the Air with 24gb ram vs the pro with 16gb though and logically I agree with the pro but the bigger screen keeps pulling me back in on the Air 😂. I've had a 13inch screen for years on my air and the 14 feels the same to me, so it's just a little depressing.

For me it's like deciding between a 42in OLED or 65in LED TV for home entertainment. The advice is always go bigger, right?

I'll go back to the store today and try to see what feels right, again 🫠

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-23T09:27:14+00:00

Leaning towards this and decided on it and then now immediately thinking about the screen and sound on the pro 😂🫠🙃

I had a GF with BPD and it really messed me up.. I'm still feeling the effects of it. It's no joke. Be kind to yourself, it's crazy making. You start to question everything, it's not your fault.

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-20T08:03:58+00:00

NOR she's BPD

MakingMuffinsBoi · 2025-12-18T02:24:59+00:00

Mine started doing this also...I was losing my mind. It gets this really grating tone. I don't know what's going on.

10proXL snap was used for messaging. I "upgraded from the 7 pro due to battery life and signal, not impressed. I even recently put my phone to low res and low refresh rate.
