      Hi AndrianaA, While we are glad to hear that you are happy with your new WHCH520, we are sorry to hear that it did not meet all of your expectations. For intense workouts, we suggest our headphones specifically designed for that task. Check out our WF-C500s and the WF-1000XM4s.

      With the WHCH520 you can stay powered up for days! With up to 50 hours of battery life, you can listen to your favorite music without worrying about running out of charge. And, if your headphones battery is running low, a 3-minute quick-charge can give you 1.5 hours of listening time. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Carl Sony_US

    I didn’t know anything about them I thought because they were Sony. They would be loud, but they’re not because they’re different kind of Sony and they were a little bit cheaper but all in all I like them cause I’ll be walking with them.

      Hi EricF,

      We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience using the WH-CH520 for work calls. A "tinny" sound often occurs when the audio connection switches to the "Hands-Free" profile (HFP/HSP) to enable the microphone, which sacrifices listening quality for mic functionality. To improve this, please ensure your computer’s sound settings are set to use the "Headset" or "Hands-Free" profile for both the input (microphone) and output (speaker) during your calls. If you are still experiencing issues, performing a full reset on the headphones may also help restore optimal settings.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

      Best regards,
      Eliab sony-global

    Bought these for my teenage son, mind you, I don't expect a sub $50 pair of headphones to be amazing, but literally within three days, he dropped his headphones on the road, and this teeny tiny piece of plastic that hold the ear cup to the headband snapped like a kit-kat bar. Super disappointed!

    Would not recommend to purchase. The headset does sometimes connect and other times it does not. When it connects it disconnects while in use. Not fun when you are on a call an all of a sudden the call is moved to ur speaker or dropped since the headset deceived it’s time to disconnect even though fully charged. It’s moody

    comfortable and really great! my only issue with them is that they don't get as loud as i would like but for the price its worth it. the battery life is absolutely phenomenal. i was traveling for two straight days because of delays and things and i never took them off my head and after all of that they were at 50 percent! took my ears abit to get used to them but after you do they get more comfortable. they may have some problems on connecting them when you are on weak internet but otherwise its all great. if you want cheaper headphones that sound nice and have a really long battery life i would 100% recommend these.
