The Sony WH-CH520 are mediocre for commute and travel. They're decently comfortable but can't passively isolate you from much background noise due to their on-ear design and lack of active noise cancellation (ANC).

Long battery life., Comfortable and well-built.

Bad passive noise isolation., On-ear design impacts stability during moderate movement.

The Sony WH-CH520 prove to be on-ear headphones with a good price-performance ratio. Stylish design, balanced sound, a practical runtime and simple operation with complementary app functionality complete a comprehensive package.

Affordable and then some, the Sony WH-CH520 wireless headphones want to bask in the reflected glow of the company’s high-end heroes.

Poised and perky sound, Impressive battery life, Great app control

Could sound more detailed, Not the most dynamic headphones you can buy

Built down to a price, of course – but compromised in the least compromising way, and with audio performance easily in excess of the asking price Balanced and engaging sound Great battery life Useful and extensive control app Dynamically inhibited Could conceivably have greater insight

At USD 38/ Rs 4990, the Sony WH-CH520 get pretty much everything right. They offer good value for money, and you can’t go wrong with them at their current price. Sure, these aren’t the most comfortable headphones around—partly due to the on-ear design—and they do miss out on some features, as we...

Lightweight design, Decent sound, Multi-point pairing, Excellent battery life, Support for companion app

Earcups have the tendency to pinch ears, Ear cushioning could've been better, Noise isolation could be better, No 3.5mm jack

The Sony WH-CH520 are simply superb value. Their sound is clear and well-rounded, and nicely customizable through the app – and DSEE support turns out to be nice to have. They feel well made and are comfortably padded, and while they might not be crammed with features, they've got them where it...

Very well-balanced sound, Audio customization in the app works great, Bluetooth multi-point pairing, 50-hour battery life

On-ear design isn't for everyone, Noise isolation isn't the best, No 3.5mm jack
Over all I do like the way the feel on my head. The controls are not easy to distinguish by feel because the power and volume are close together. I wish the ear cups were bigger to fit over my ears not on them. The battery last a very long time over 5 hours and only went down to 70%.
The headphones are amazing,the quality is great in my opinion but the only problem I had was with the comfort side of things.If you want these headphones for training and listening to music then I would suggest buying them.Their not ideal for binging movies or series because again comfort their a...
My nephew is very happy with these headphones, the sound is good and even better with the app that allows to improve the audio, the autonomy is very good, the headphones are light.
Ideally I bought these to exercise and so they're great I just had to make sure I don't get too much water in them from sweating when working out but they work well
Really good in terms of sound and longevity of battery life, the feel as well. They don't fall off (if you would like to use them for the gym highly recommended).Not the best for noise cancellation(if that's your major concern) and sound leakage does occur (not as bad but does occur) but overall...
The headphones work well, but the pivot between the headband and the earpiece is fragile and broke after 2 months.
Absolutely adore the look of these headphones. Not only are they aesthetically pleasing, they also have an incredible battery life and sound quality. I haven’t charged my device for a week and it’s still on 70%. The only downfall is that the sound leaks, so people can hear what you’re listening to.
I suggest you download the App and watch a few youtube video on how to set them up, trust me you will never regret it, i use them for listening to music on my phone and for Playing Playstation and them are awesome.The quality of the actually Headphones is just crazy, the look and few beautiful.
These have a very cheap feel to them. Seem to be the type to break on a small fall/mishandle. If handle with care was a piece of gadget, this would be it.I'm not experiencing the long battery life other reviewers are talking about. Im charging after every 2 days.Sound is okay, nothing fancy.
great value headset, durable, not expensive, good sound
