Discover the freedom of Bluetooth connectivity with the compact WF-C500 truly wireless earbuds, combining uncompromising sound with great battery life, personalization, and IPX4 water resistance for music that goes anywhere.
- Make your music more natural: When an original music source is compressed, it loses the high-frequency elements that add detail and richness to a track. Our Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) faithfully restores these to produce high-quality sound that’s closer to the original recording
- Listen for hours, charge in minutes: Enjoy up to 20 hours of listening thanks to the handy charging case. In a hurry? A 10-minute quick charge gives you up to an hour of extra play time.
- Splashes and sweat, no problem: With an IPX4 water resistance rating, splashes and sweat won’t stop these headphones – so you can keep on moving to the music.
- Easier, clearer hands-free calling: Conversation flows freely with easy hands-free calling, now clearer than ever with a high-quality built-in microphone. You won’t even have to take your phone out of your pocket.
- Small and light, a great fit: Designed small, these buds fit securely and comfortably in your ears. The rounded shape without edges makes them a pleasure to wear, leaving you free to focus on what matters – your music.
- Go anywhere, pocket-sized case: The cylindrical charging case is extremely small and easy to carry around in a pocket or bag so you can take your earbuds everywhere you go. Its translucent lid with a texture like frosted glass gives the case a stylish, luxurious look and feel.
- Ergonomic Surface Design: Since introducing the first in-ear headphones in 1982, we’ve surveyed huge amounts of data relating to ear shapes from around the world. The WF-C500 headphones are the product of that research, combining a shape that matches the ear cavity with new ergonomic surface design.
- Your sound, just how you like it: Tailor sound to your personal preference. Choose from a variety of presets to match sound quality with the genre of music you're listening to. Or create and save your own presets using the EQ Custom feature on the Sony │ Headphones Connect app.
- One earbud, ideal for multitasking: If you want to listen to your music while still being able to have a conversation, remove one earbud only from the charging case and use as normal
- Easy button operation: The buttons on the WF-C500 headphones not only let you play, stop, or skip through tracks and adjust the volume – they also offer an easy way to access your smartphone’s voice assistant and make and receive calls hands-free.
- So immersive. So real.: Immerse yourself in sound all around you. As real as if you are there at a live concert or with the artist recording in a studio. With 360 Reality Audio, music has never been so immersive and so real.6 These headphones let you enjoy 360 Reality Audio.

A: No it doesn’t matter which one you use. For work I use my left one all day. At home I’ll use my right one in. Most times I don’t feel like putting both in. Whichever one I’m using, I leave the other one inside the case. You’ll be fine using just one for a while. They last very long. I charge my case once a week. So you’re okay to just use one if that’s what you choose to do
Q: Can I use this with Samsung android phone ?
A: Yes. My wife uses them with a note 10 plus. The box would make you thing they are only for iPhone but they work with Android
Q: Are they noise canceling? The description says yes, but some say no..
A: There is no active noise cancelation but they are good in terms of passive noise cancelation.
Q: How is the microphone quality? Do others hear you clearly?
A: I use phone for work much of my day and have had no issues with people hearing me.
Q: Do they have different rubber tips that come with it?
A: Yes they do, they have a few different sizes to fit more comfortably.
Q: Do these have physical buttons or touch capacitive sensors?
A: Each earbud has one button. It’s physical touch to turn up the volume, turn down the volume, pick up a phone call or hang up a phone call. Also they can be used for whatever voice assistant your phone uses. I got my self a pair. I love them. They also have a very clear instruction booklet that also teaches you how to use each earbud. The box itself also has a QR scanner code that you can scan and the website also has the same instructions if you don’t wanna read the instruction booklet.
A: They will work for that, just be aware that any EQ settings from the Headphones app won’t work because the Apple Watch doesn’t support it.
A: If your TV has Bluetooth, then yes these can be used on it. You just need to connect them, you don’t need a fancy box or anything. Just look up the pairing process and take it from there.
