<\/picture><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\nThis makes Sandstone the second new color to be added to the list of available options this year. If you don’t remember, Sony announced a Sand Pink colorway with the launch of the WF-1000XM6 in February. Sandstone now joins Sand Pink, Black, Platinum Silver, and Midnight Blue as the fifth colorway.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\nYou’ll be able to get the WH-1000XM6 in Sandstone sony website<\/a> or through Amazon<\/a>. It will cost the same retail price of $459.99 USD \/ $599.99 CAD. If you want something even more premium than the WH-1000XM6, the company is celebrating the headset’s 10th anniversary with its “1000X The ColleXion.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
