good average pair of headphones
|Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.fine pair of headphones. do the trick and haven’t had any issues with audio since purchasing them a few months ago. though they’re really nothing special. i personally prefer studio headphones with larger muffs because i find these ones look a little awkward by comparison but they still get the job done.

Posted .Hi HannahM,
We are happy to hear that your WH-CH520 headphones have been performing reliably for the past few months! We designed this model to be a compact, "on-ear" solution for everyday use, though we understand that if you are used to the larger "over-ear" style of studio headphones, the smaller footprint can take some getting used to. We're glad they are getting the job done for your daily listening! Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,

Good product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Work well, sound is good, and adjust well for a comfortable fit. Bought them to listen to e-books while mowing. Did not drowned out the loud sound well enough. Would purchase sound canceling in the future to use with loud machinery.

Pretty good headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great headphone. It is a little small when I first got it but when I stretched it for a while it fit my head perfectly. The buttons are easy to use and I can take phone calls with them. I've had one for 2 years before I broke it and needed to get a new one.

Love the pink. Worth the wait.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are honestly pretty reasonable for the price, four stars because it didn’t come with a case. Outside of the case I love them they hold up pretty good charge and lightweight.

Nice headset for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good product for the price. I use this for webex calls. The mic is clear and the folks on other side of webex can and comprehend what I say clearly. The headset is on the lighter side and has amazing bluetooth range and battery life. This headset is also compatible with the Sony app and one can use the app to change various presets. My only gripe is this being an over the ear set, there is a good deal of sound leakage and I can clearly hear my surroundings.

The real deal. Perfect headset for cheap.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive read a lot of reviews for this and looked at the most expensive. These bad boys are the real deal. I purchase these a month ago and havent had any issues. I use them in the gym, grocery shopping, and walking my dog. The battery life is great as it keeps a charge for a long time. Ive went days without charging them and use them for hours, and hasn’t died. Compared to the other expensive headsets, the sound quality is exactly the same. Get them! You dont regret it!

more or less
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They're good headphones and the sound is okay, but air gets in them when you're outside running; they're not for exercising, they're for relaxing on the couch listening to music. The price it’s good
