Fantastic "Budget" Over-Ear NC Headphones
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love testing and reviewing headphones. I have previously owned and reviewed 5 different over-the-ear noise cancelling headphones including B&O BEOPLAY, Sennheiser HD1, Sony WH-1000XM4, Sony 1000-XM2...plus Sony in-ear WF-1000XM3, Sony SP600N and non-noise canceling Sony XB-950B1, Sony WH-L600, and Sony WH-XB700. Some of these headphones retailed for upwards of $500. Until now, however, it was hard to get my hands on a pair of "budget conscious" over-ear noise canceling headphones I was willing to recommend. As a broadcast audio technician, I set a high standard for sound when using headphones and listen to sound and music a bit differently than the average user. Consequently, I am very picky when I review any brand/model of headphones or speakers. Clarity, loudness, bass, battery life, etc. are all important but I tend to listen for what is NOT heard in cheaper headphones. The Sony WH-CH720N, first and foremost, has better than average noise canceling and average to above average sound quality out of the box. The headphones are significantly lighter than my more expensive Sony WH-1000XM4 but also lack some of the features of the WH-1000XM4 such as "touch pad" controls, instead utilizing the less expensive and more common "button" controls for volume, skipping, etc. on the right ear cup. These headphones feel a bit more plastic than the more expensive models, but that is a fair trade-off if it brings the price down by more than half. NOISE CANCELING Working at home, listening to music with Noise Canceling turned on, I cannot hear conversations in the other room, nor the television, nor my tapping on the keyboard. Turn the NC OFF and my music becomes "background noise" to everything happening around me. COMFORT AND BUILD These headphones weigh about 2.5oz less than the Sony WH-1000XM4 (more expensive) headphones which makes them lightweight and comfortable. The cups completely surround my ears. Although mostly plastic, the headband is reinforced (likely aluminum) while the cups and pivot points are plastic. BATTERY AND COMPONENTS These headphones are rated at 35 hours of wireless listening with a 10-minute quick charge that will get you an hour of wireless play. You will need to provide the charger as the headphones do NOT come with a charger. Nor is there a bag or case for storing the headphones, something higher-end, more expensive models have included in the past. There is a USB-A to USB-C cable plus an AUX cable should you choose to use the headphones via an AUX port. APP The Sony app will allow you to EQ the headphones and tweak environment/NC settings. SOUND AND MUSIC QUALITY Out of the box the EQ is flat and the sound reflects it. Using the Sony app you can quickly select a pre-configured EQ or tweak your own EQ. I listen to ALT, ALT ROCK, ROCK, CLASSIC ROCK, METAL and HIP HOP primarily. I usually test with Pearl Jam, Twenty-One Pilots, Jimi and 50 Cent with my EQ in a "V" or "U" pattern heavier on bass and treble, and clear bass (activated in the app) set at 4. All 4 genres sound great with deep, punching bass in the alt-rock/hip-hop and tight vocals/guitars with my grunge and classic rock selections. My $400 headphones are just a bit more robust and crisp with vocals but at half the cost, the sound quality of these headphones, once tweaked, is a 9 out of 10. When used for calls, clarity of voice and audio is above average. I highly recommend the Sony - WHCH720N Wireless Noise Canceling Headphones. The only concern I would have is the "plastic" factor for anyone who is rough on headphones--constantly taking them off/on, putting them in a purse or backpack, etc.

Great price but uncomfortable
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These may work for some people, but they didn't work for me. The main issue was that they were just straight up uncomfortable. They are light, but something was causing pain on the right side of my head. It may have been that the cups are shallow, so if they are not positioned just right, the inner workings can poke you in the ear. BTW, I have small and flat ears, so I imagine average sized ears would have the same problem. They also did feel pretty cheap, but I was mainly going to wear them in my home office for work, so I wasn't worried about durability. But I couldn't wear them for more than 10 minutes without feeling discomfort, which is a showstopper. I returned these and got the Bose QC45 headphones. If comfort is your top priority, the Bose QC45s are much better (also more expensive).

Posted .Hi PuffyTummy,
We are sorry to hear that you had an issue with the headphones and you had to return them. That was definitely not the customer experience we wanted you to have. We always recommend the users of our headphones to adjust the length of the headband accordingly, which can be seen from the help guide: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2966/v1/en/contents/TP1000781372.html.
We take all user input seriously and will make sure your comments reach the appropriate person. We hope you will consider Sony again in your future purchase.
Sincerely,
Vincent

Posted .Hi JamyaD,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the WHCH720N. Your feedback about the noise canceling function is greatly appreciated. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the headphones is up-to-date (via the Sony Headphones Connect app).
The noise canceling function is effective in low frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, offices, near air-conditioning, and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices. When the Adaptive Sound Control on the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app is turned on, the wearer's actions, like walking or running, are detected. The noise canceling function is automatically adjusted and the Ambient Sound Mode may be activated according to these actions. To make the most of the noise canceling function, turn off the Adaptive Sound Control, and try to turn on the noise canceling function manually when you need it.
Hope this helps. In case you need further assistance, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:
