Sony announces two new headphone models: the WH-CH720N over-ear and WH-CH520 on-ear wireless headphones
21/02/2023
Stay powered up for longer with up to 50 hours of battery life on the WH-CH520
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.
The over-ear WH-CH720N wireless headphones incorporate Dual Noise Sensor technology and Sony's Integrated Processor V1 chip to provide noise cancelling. In addition, a lightweight design and up to 35 hours of battery life let you enjoy music for longer without background interruptions.
The on-ear WH-CH520 wireless headphones provide up to 50 hours battery life with all day comfort and enhanced call performance to meet the demands of your day. Plus choose from four colours - black, blue, white and beige - to match your style.
Both models also feature Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) to produce high-quality sound exactly as the artist intended as well as Multipoint connection for easy connectivity between devices.
All day comfort, without the noise
Whether you're flying long-haul or relaxing in a caf , the over-ear WH-CH720N headphones deliver Sony's advanced noise cancelling performance thanks to the Integrated Processor V1 chip and Dual Noise Sensor technology, so you can enjoy more music and less background noise.
The Integrated Processor V1 helps eliminate external sound, with a low processing delay to make the noise cancelling more effective than ever. The WH-CH720N also features two microphones in each earcup which, coupled with Dual Noise Sensor technology, captures ambient sound. This lets you block outside noise everywhere you go, so the only thing you hear is your music.
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 lightweight design so you can find the perfect fit and stay comfortable for longer.
Superb sound for every song
Enjoy natural vocals, crystal clear sound and balanced tuning on both the WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE), producing a high-quality sound exactly as the artist intended. When the original music is compressed, it loses the high-frequency elements that add details and richness to a track. Sony's Digital Sound Enhancement Engine faithfully restores these to produce high-quality sound that's closer to the original recording.
The Integrated Processor V1 included within the WH-CH720N also produces an authentic listening experience by reproducing the detail in your music with minimal distortion. The sound tuning is intentionally designed to be well-balanced from low to high frequencies with natural and clear vocals.
Whether you're listening to electrifying pop or bassy rap, the WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 allow you to tailor your sound using the Equalizer 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 own 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.
Whether you're joining an online class or a work meeting, the WH-CH520 also provides easy hands-free calling and great call quality. Simply answer calls with one click of the buttons on the earcup so there's no need to take your phone out of your pocket. Built-in high quality microphones and noise suppression processing mean the WH-CH520 collects sound and reduces ambient noise during calls so you can make clear calls even in noisy environments.
Both the WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 feature Multipoint connection, easy button operation and can be controlled with your voice . Since the connection is easy with Swift Pair and Fast pair, these headphones are ideal for everyday use.
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 is available in black, blue, and white and will be available to purchase from March 2023 with a suggested retail price of £130 / 160.
