Bad for your body

Do some research into what buds use for the plastic on them, as it will save you a headache and ear ache

okay this is easy...buy them.
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I have a lot of earbuds, and these are something special. I'll try to be as fair and down to earth as possible, because these earbuds are totally worth it. Let's talk about the price first, because you will not find too many earbuds in this range that sound this good, and have the support these will have. I normally would not start here, but these are just that good and are easily punching way above some others at the same price. Now the build quality. These feel just an good as the much more expensive earbuds that I have, and will more than likely hold up for some time to come. The case that they come is built a little different from other cases, and the shape helps with them being so sturdy inside. Strong magnets hold them in place, and they stay put the times I've dropped them. The earbuds themself, are very solid too. Sound quality. Well, the only thing that I could find that might not be as strong as some others, is bass...but even that can be adjusted in the setting of the application. It really good, and again for the price....you really can't go wrong. Battery life should be good. All in all, these are totally worth it, and will get you into the Sony eco system at a very good price.

Posted .Hi Mrjlwilliams,
Thank you for this fantastic review of your new WF-C510 Truly Wireless Earbuds. We're glad you like the reasonable price and all the improvements we made on these earbuds, especially the amazing build design of the unit. Your assessment is spot on! The WF-C510 are Sony's smallest ever closed type earbuds so those with even smaller ears can achieve a more stable fit. If you feel like you are missing some bass or your music missing a bit of oomph, the Sony Sound Connect app (formerly Sony Headphones Connect app) packs numerous audio presets curated by sound experts. Not everyone finds them perfect, nor are they meant to be. You can find one that suits you the most and tweak it to your preferences. Here's the link for more details:

Good lower mid price headphones.
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got these for more general purpose use when I'm doing things outside like yard work and traveling. They are a price point I'm familiar with the sound quality of, and a brand that is quite reliable (about 40 years since my first sony purchase). It's the good very good sound, can get better, but I'm going to be so busy, it won't matter a lot. Also, ifi get them grungy, ok, if i lost them, frustrated but not bankrupt. What I really like about these is the actual nice push button on them. It has a good feel and responsive. I was leveling and spreading dirt today and my hands were filthy, but I was able to easily push the buttons and not habe to work about touch response. It’s just a good old button. I did get a nice powder blue on purpose because if i’m outside and for some reason it falls, it should be easier to see. That does not happen often with ear buds for me, and these sit nicely in my ear, but it’s a just in case thin. The buttons are programmable, and Intuitive to use. Call sound is good. Now where these are really cool for this price point us the 5 band equilizer that is easily customized. They also have I think about a dozen presets, but they have a feature where you pick from like 8 settings, then that splits into 4 and it makes a custom sound setting for you. These also feature 360 sound, and I did meas with this a bit, but you need to have like one of 4 services, I set up one (at no cost) and it’s a pretty cool atmos like feature. The battery life is estimated at 11 hours, i had them in for 3 today, and i’s estimate 10 to 12 hours is accurate. This comes with a case, the buds, and a few earpieces. Charges by usbc. I can find no faults with these for what they are, and I feel they earn their value here. Full 5 stars and I do reccomend these.

Good sound and battery, odd fit
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a good pair of earbuds to use with my Samsung Galaxy Fold 6. I wanted good sound for music, and a decent microphone to use them for hands-free calls while working. I also was looking for long battery life. I came across these Sony FC510 earbuds, they seemed like an excellent value, so decided to give them a try. Upon unboxing these earbuds, the first thing I noticed was how compact the case is. I like its narrow shape, making it comfortable to carry in a pocket. The case magnetically holds the earbuds in place which is a good feature, preventing them from falling out if I happen to open the case upside down. These earbuds are an average size, and are fairly lightweight. The included cups come in three different sizes and are easy to change out. The problem is, I can’t find a size that fits me well. Maybe I have oddly sized or shaped ears, but I just can’t get these earbuds to stay in place very well. I think they would have been better with some sort of extra rubber keeper around the outside to help hold them. Also, it’s not entirely evident from their shape how they should sit in the ear. I just had to experiment with the position to find a good fit, but I never felt like they were very secure. The sound of these Sony earbuds is very good. I am not audiophile, but I enjoy listing to music on them. They have plenty of bass and clear highs. Although they are not noise-canceling, they do a decent job of isolating outside sounds. The app they use works well and the touch controls are intuitive. The microphone is decent for making calls. The person listening to me said that I sounded clear, but was obviously not talking directly into the phone’s mic. Still, it was better than using the phone in speakerphone mode. As for battery life, they claim 11 hours, and I’d say they’ll meet that. I used them for nearly 10 hours one day at work and they still had 10% left. Charging is easy and fast. The case doesn’t support wireless charging so it must be connected to a USB cord to recharge it. That’s likely one way they made the case so compact. Overall, I like these earbuds. They work well and are a good value, but I do wish they fit better.

Posted .Hi Rudeney,
We're truly delighted to hear that you are enjoying the incredible audio quality these earbuds deliver. It's wonderful to learn that you are utilizing the built-in equalizer on the Sony Sound Connect app. Your assessment is spot on! Small, light, and a great fit, WF-C510 are our most compact ever closed-type truly wireless earbuds. The WF-C510 comes with different sizes of hybrid silicone rubber earbud tips to suit different ear shapes. As a suggestion, to reduce discomfort while wearing the headset, change the earbud tips to another size to comfortably and snugly fit your left and right ears. The size of the left and right fitting supporters may be different.

Posted .Hi SharleS,
We're sorry to hear that you are having some issues with your WF-C510 earbud headphones and it hasn't performed to your standards. This is not the experience we want you to have. Your feedback is extremely important to us and is very much appreciated. If the size of the earbud tips does not match the size of your ear canals or the headset is not worn properly in your ears, you may not obtain the correct sound qualities or call performance.
To ensure optimal performance, as well as to obtain the best fit and prevent the headset from falling out, change the earbud tips to ones that fit more snugly in your ears. When changing the earbud tips, try the earbud tip sizes in order from the larger ones to the smaller ones. The size of the left and right earbud tips may be different. Check that you are wearing the headset properly in your ears. Wear the headset so that the earbud tip is comfortably situated as deep in the ear canal as possible. Please make sure to follow the guide from this link:
https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wfc500/v1/en/contents/TP1000445760.html
By using the Sony Sound Connect app, you can make few adjustments to your headphones settings to suit your needs. This will give you more control over your headphones and their performance. For more details, you may refer to this link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00286844

A great set of ear buds with quality sound.
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the sound of these small ear buds, they give clear and precise audio. I just have a problem getting ear buds to fit comfortably. I am REALLY picky in that area, and have never found a set that I actually find that I want to wear them for any length of time. This is a problem I have, and not a bad design of the Sony WFC510 earbuds themselves. They are compact, easy to use and connect quickly to my phone, a 2024 Moto Stylus 5G. I have to wear ear pieces for one of my jobs and find them very uncomfortable. I just can't seem to find a good fit for my ear canals. These do get really close and I find them almost there for my strange ear shape! I'm going to keep working with these because they are almost there! Maybe I can get myself trained to like them! I like that they come with several sets of ear pieces, allowing the user to adjust for each ear and find the fit that is right for them. They fit pretty well in the ear itself and don't stick out to snag on things. I think they will stay in even with moderate activity, but there are other options for any heavy work or athletic use. Most users will find them very comfortable and the sound is really good. I have a very old set of Sony headphones that I use for comparing just about any audio devices against and these get very close to matching the quality of sound. I would definitely be able to recommend these to anyone looking for a good set of ear buds with a great little charging case.

Posted .Hi Andy,
Thank you for the feedback and we are delighted to hear that you like the assortment of earbud tips in various sizes to ensure there is a great fit for all ear sizes and amazing sound quality of these earbuds. Sporting a smaller and more compact design verses previous generations, the WF-C510 are all about comfort. The WF-C510 are Sony’s smallest ever closed type so even those with smaller ears can achieve a more stable fit. The WF-C510 headphones combine a shape that perfectly matches the human ear with an ergonomic surface design for a more stable fit. If the size of the earbud tips does not match the size of your ear canals or the headset is not properly worn on your ears, you may not obtain proper sound qualities, noise canceling effects, or call performances. If you feel earbud tips are difficult to put into your ears, change the size of earbud tips and wear the headset so that the earbud tip is comfortably situated as deep in the ear canal as possible. For more details on how to wear the headset properly, please visit the link below.

High quality budget priced earbuds
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony WFC-510 are budget-friendly headphones that offer excellent sound quality and an impressive battery life, providing up to 11 hours of music playback on a single charge, with the case adding another 11 hours. While they lack some features like Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), they do include an ambience mode, for situations you need to be aware of your surroundings. However, there is no wireless charging option. They are compatible with the Sony Sound Connect app, which I highly recommend for creating a custom EQ to match your personal listening preferences. Each earbud features a clickable button that allows you to play or pause music, or even set a preferred Spotify playlist to start playing with a single touch. Overall, these are excellent, no-frills headphones, especially for budget-conscious shoppers. You still get excellent audio quality for your gym workouts and casual listening. For frequent travelers, I recommend opting for a pair that supports Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). While the silicone tips effectively filter noise, ANC would be more suitable for blocking airplane noise.

Very good for music, not as much for calls
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used these Sony WFC510 Truly Wireless Earbuds for a week and a half so far. Pretty easy and intuitive to setup and use (a quick learn online for the button taps on each ear was very easy). Connected and used them on my desktop computer, iPhone, and iPad. Listening to music and videos was very clear and rich to my ears. Very comfortable to wear and blocked out external sounds pretty well. For me unfortunately, I thought they were not so good when talking on the phone or in Teams and FaceTime calls. The mic just didn’t pickup all that well compared to AirPods and Galaxy buds from my usage. For that, I’ll have to drop by a star. Fair price and good for just audio. If listening will be your main usage, these ear buds are a nice option.

Good Value Purchase
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these right around 1/1/2025. These really have nice bass but really nice clarity. The app does a good job with its hearing test as well as some nice presets. The bass slider makes it easy to fine tune things. Really light and comfortable with a good microphone. No Anc but ANC works well for running or walking after work for me.
