    Best Buy’s customer service was excellent, but these were great for battery life not much else. Not very loud, no base no noise reduction. You are paying for the name Sony and warranty. Good but that’s about it. Expected more for this price point. Not studio quality more, but not this.

      Hi DavidW, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your Sony WHCH520. While we're glad you like the great battery life, we regret to hear that the volume level and overall sound quality did not live up to your expectations. To ensure optimal listening experience, please follow the troubleshooting steps on this link:

      https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2958/v1/en/contents/TP1000776823.html

      https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2958/v1/en/contents/TP1000776831.html

      The WHCH520 doesn't have a noise cancelling feature. I'd suggest going up a notch and check out the Sony WH-CH720N if you're looking for an excellent noise cancelling headphones. And for top notch, premium noise cancelling headphones, I'd recommend checking out the WH1000XM4 and WH1000XM5. Hope this helps!

      Enjoy high sound quality all day long. The WH-CH520 headphones with up to 50 hours of battery life, stable connectivity, and enhanced call performance, meet the demands of your day. And for total convenience, these Bluetooth® headphones can be paired with two Bluetooth® devices at the same time. So when a call comes in, your headphones know which device is ringing and connects to the right one automatically. Thanks for choosing Sony!

    This was for my son. The quality of sound on this wasn't as good as the JBL Tune 660NC that he eventually got and the pads were a bit on the small side making it less comfortable. He's a drummer and wanted comfortable over-the-ear style, BT headphones. Certainly less expensive than the JBL Tune 660NC, but didn't work for his needs.

      Hi PapaCraft,
      Thank you for your time writing this review. We're sorry to hear that our WHCH520 headphones did not meet your son's needs and expectations. Sony values the opinions of customers and is always striving to provide the best experience possible. You may find this link helpful with steps to try if the sound quality is low: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2958/v1/en/contents/TP1000776831.html

      If you feel discomforts while wearing the headset, try extending the slider and adjust the orientation of the left and right units so that each earpad fits snugly over each part of your ear. If you put on the headset without adjusting the slider, the headset may not be positioned properly on your head, resulting in discomfort. For reference: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2958/v1/en/contents/TP1000781372.html

      Our WHCH520 headphones allow you to enjoy high-quality sound all day long with up to 50 hours of battery life, stable connectivity, and enhanced call performance. They will make your music more natural with our Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) which restores the harmonics and liveliness lost during typical music compression, for a more authentic performance. These are also 360 Reality Audio-compatible so you can fully immerse yourself in sound all around you. We've taken note of your feedback and thanks again for purchasing Sony. - Kris Sony_US
