Sony Noise Cancelling Headphones WHCH710N: Wireless Bluetooth Over the Ear Headset with Mic for Phone-Call, Black

Esta excelente

These over-the-ear headphones are very lightweight and comfortable to wear. They seemed to be designed to be operated while wearing them because they speak to you as you press the buttons, e.g. Power On/Off, Bluetooth Pairing/Connected/Disconnected, Noise Cancelling, Ambient Sound, etc. Press the power button briefly and it tells you the power level, hold the button a few seconds to turn on/off, and hold it for seven seconds to go into Bluetooth pairing mode. If you have Near Field Communications on your device, my cell phone has this capability, the Bluetooth connects and disconnects when held near the device. In the box are the headphones, and two cables: a headphone cable, and USB-A to USB-C cable. The USB cable is less that 8 inches, not sure why so short, it is difficult to plug into my charging transformer or computer. A 5-volt charging transformer is not included and it is not clear the desired wattage. It did take 7 hours to charge initially. It is listed as having a 35-hour playback time on a charge. The sound quality is very good, I play my music at very high fidelity and these headphones are handling the music exceedingly well. One thing that I wish Sony included is a case for the headphones. There are third-party cases available online. These headphones seem to provide many of the features of Sony’s higher end headphones at a more modest price point. I would certainly recommend them for everyday use. I tested the tree modes; Ambient, Noise Cancelling, and Off. We live on a busy street with much traffic, cars and heavy trucks, which was a perfect setting for the test. Noise Cancelling mode did a great job compensating for the exterior noise, the traffic is loud, and I could barely hear it. As expected in Ambient mode the microphones passed through the street sounds with the music, good if I were walking around and needed to also hear what is going on in the environment and listen to the music. Ambient off turns off the microphones so there is no pass-through sound, so it will depend on the outside volume and your music volume as to how much outside sound you hear. Ambient off also means that Noise Cancelling is off, so if you do not like the compensation that noise cancelling provides, this is your mode. I need to also disclose that I did receive these headphones at a discount in exchange for my honest review. I am pleased with the quality that these headphones provide at a very reasonable price.

I bought these on sale for $68 in November 2022. Phone call quality and audio for music was excellent, but I immediately noticed build quality was not as good as previous Sony headphones I lost. There have been little cracks in the plastic over the years, but finally, in June 2025, it has broken to the point it is no longer usable. So it loses 1 star for long term durability and lands at 4 stars for audio quality and value. If you travel a lot, I recommend going with a different model that is more durable and comes with a case.

I've had these for 2 years, I fully charged these earlier in the week and they sat on my dresser for 3 days. I've been using them for 2 days while delivering for a courier app. I just hit the power button and it said battery life 70%. 70% after two long days of listening to YouTube music and podcasts, and taking phone calls, while delivering is insane for a brand new set let alone a pair that is 2 years old.

When I turn them on, they pair with my phone automatically. I love having them on my ears for this because when they power up, suddenly there is silence. The noises around me abruptly stop. I love this! In a noisy environment, quiet is a gift, and these headphones make every day a little bit like my birthday.Of course, you can turn off the noise canceling. I do that every once in a while to remember what I used to struggle with but not too often.In short, I adore the noise canceling.The sound quality is great. They do well in the lower registers. I note this fact because, in the past, that had been a problem with some headsets.The weight is good. I’m not aware of them weighing my head down as I have been with some other headsets in the past.I cannot tell you whether they are durable because I treat them as if they were made of glass because I like them so much and really don’t want to risk breaking them and having to wait for a new set to arrive after I re-order.I would definitely buy these again.(Truthfully, I *have* bought them again. They are so wonderful with my cell phone that I bought a set to use with my computer.)On the downside, after several hours of wear time, I like to take them off for a little while because the ear cups press the sides of my head a little bit too hard.(To be fair, I suspect the snug fit might be necessary for the noise canceling feature to do its work.)I hasten to say that the snug fit around my ears does not stop me from using these every day.

great

Overall pretty good wireless headphones. The sound quality is good, they have low latency, and the sound cancelling+audio passthrough is decent. The media control buttons all work fine and are easily located. Probably the best aspect is the amazingly long 35+ hr battery life. Comfort will be a bit different for everyone, but for me they would cause my ears to be a bit sore after a few hours, which is my biggest issue with these.I got them for about $80 back in 2021, which seems like a fair enough price. However, there are probably better and more comfortable options around the same price range. If you just need some decent wireless headphones and see these on a big sale, then these are pretty good, but don't expect anything amazing.

I actually bought these in 2020 so I dont know if they are different but these are great! Left outside and it snowed! Thought they were ruined but let them dry out and they worked!! Love these
