Sony has announced two new headphones – the WH-CH720N and the WH-CH520 – giving music lovers the option of on-ear or over-ear wireless headphones packed with Sony’s critically acclaimed audio technology.
Dual Noise Sensor technology and Sony’s Integrated Processor V1 processor are used in the over-ear WH-CH720N wireless headphones to provide noise cancellation. Additionally, a lightweight design and up to 35 hours of battery life allow you to listen to music uninterrupted for an extended period of time.
The WH-CH520 on-ear wireless headphones offer up to 50 hours of battery life, all-day comfort, and improved call quality to satisfy your day’s demands. Additionally, you can fit your style with one of four colours: black, blue, white, or beige.
Both models also feature Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) to produce high-quality sound exactly as the artist intended as well as a Multipoint connection for easy connectivity between devices.
All-day comfort, without the noise
If you’re traveling on a long flight or unwinding at a coffee shop, the WH-CH720N headphones with over-ear design offer advanced noise-cancelling technology from Sony. This is possible due to the Integrated Processor V1 chip and Dual Noise Sensor technology which helps to minimize background noise and lets you enjoy your music even more.
The WH-CH720N headphones have an Integrated Processor V1 that reduces external noise with minimal processing delay, making the noise cancelling feature more efficient. Additionally, each earcup contains two microphones that work with Dual Noise Sensor technology to capture surrounding sounds. This allows you to effectively block out external noise in any environment, allowing you to enjoy your music without any disturbances.
Plus with the Sony| Headphones Connect app, you can adjust the ambient sound across 20 different levels for when you’re on the move.
Stay comfortable, however long you listen
You’ll never need to take a break from your favourite music with the WH-CH720N. The over-ear headphones are ergonomically designed to be comfortable for even longer periods. At just 192g, the WH-CH720N are Sony’s lightest overhead wireless headphones with noise cancelling. Comfortable synthetic leather and urethane materials combine with optimum ear pad structure and dimensions for exceptional wearability. With up to 35 hours battery life with noise cancelling on, you’ll have enough power to keep listening all day and into the night.
The WH-CH520 have also been carefully designed with everyday use in mind. You can stay powered up for days with up to 50 hours of battery life. So you can listen to your favourite music without worrying about running out of charge. Plus the on-ear headphones feature an adjustable headband with padding, soft earpads and a lightweight design so you can find the perfect fit and stay comfortable for longer.
Superb sound for every song
Both the WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) offer natural vocals, pristine sound, and balanced tuning, creating a high-quality sound precisely as the artist intended. When original music is compressed, the high-frequency components that give a recording more detail and richness are lost. To create a high-quality sound that is more similar to the original recording, Sony’s Digital Sound Enhancement Engine faithfully restores these.
The WH-integrated CH720N’s processor V1, which reproduces your music’s detail with little distortion, also creates an authentic hearing experience. Natural and clear vocals are deliberately mixed with a sound tuning that is well-balanced from low to high frequencies. Whether you’re listening to electrifying pop or bassy rap, the WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 allow you to tailor your sound using the Equaliser in the Sony | Headphones Connect app. You can choose from a variety of settings to match sound quality with the music genre you’re listening to or even create and save your settings
Crystal clear conversations
Improved technology features on the WH-CH720N mean you can enjoy even better call quality. Beamforming microphones with Precise Voice Pickup technology are smartly positioned to pick up your voice more clearly and accurately in a range of environments. A newly developed Wind Noise Reduction Structure around the microphones reduce background noise for you, keeping conversations and music clear and uninterrupted.
The WH-CH520 headphones offer a convenient hands-free calling experience with high call quality for online classes or work meetings. Answering calls is as simple as pressing a button on the earcup, which means you don’t have to retrieve your phone from your pocket. The headphones come equipped with high-quality microphones and noise suppression processing, which allow them to capture sound and minimize background noise during calls. This feature ensures that you can make clear calls even in noisy environments.
The WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 both have a multipoint connection, simple button activation, and voice control. These headphones are perfect for daily use because the Swift Pair and Quick Pair connections are simple.
Designed with sustainability in mind
Sony has designed these headphones with the environment in mind. There’s no plastic in the WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 packaging, which is designed based on low toxicity design principles and towards Sony’s “Road to Zero” environmental plan. Both headphones also use recycled plastic materials.
Pricing and availability
The WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 will be available in the Middle East & Africa in March 2023.
