TL;DR
- Sony has confirmed via a YouTube teaser that its next-generation earbuds will launch on February 12, 2026.
- Leaked renders suggest a shift from a circular to a pill-shaped design with a flatter charging case.
- The upcoming earbuds are expected to be available in Black, Platinum Silver, and Sand Pink colors.
Sony’s premium WF-1000XM series is known for its horrible naming scheme but excellent audio features. The company launched the WF-1000XM5 in 2023, and we only recently started seeing leaks about its successor, the WF-1000XM6. We have a fair idea of what the earbuds could look like, and Sony has now officially confirmed that they are launching this month.
