Major disappointment…
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was excited to get these wireless headphones because it’s Sony… I have purchased many Sony wired headphones over the years and the quality was always great. These however aren’t the same.. They are cheaply constructed and the call quality literally lasted less than 2 weeks before my clients could no longer hear me in the built in microphone… it’s very disappointing because I spent $99 and had high expectations because its Sony and my $19.99 corded headphones worked far better… I can’t say I should have splurged and bought the more expensive ones because of the level of disappointment. Just wished they performed as advertised

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:

Posted .Thank you for your review, Kenny. We are sorry to hear that you are not happy with your WH-CH720N headphones and that you had trouble connecting them to your smart TV. This is certainly not the experience we want you to have, and we want to help you resolve this.
The WH-CH720N headphones are designed to connect via Bluetooth, but not all TVs are compatible with Bluetooth audio output. We recommend checking your TV's user manual or specifications to see if it supports connecting Bluetooth headphones. If it does, there may be a specific pairing procedure required.
We also want to ensure you're getting the best possible sound quality. Our headphones are designed to deliver a rich audio experience, but it's possible the audio settings on your TV or source device may need to be adjusted.
For further assistance with connectivity or to troubleshoot the sound, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer support team. We're here to help you get the most out of your headphones.
Thank you for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
Gus, Sony Social Media Team.

Okay
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They work well, just not as comfortable as a different brand I had before. The earpiece where the sound comes out is easily felt through the foam, feels cheap. Also didn’t like having to download an app just to use them on every device I want to use them with.

Posted .Hi AmyC,
Thank you for your time writing this review. We're glad to hear you like how the WHCH720N works. However, we're sorry to hear some issues that you are having with the headphones. Allow us to help make this a better experience. The foam padding on the earcups helps to isolate the sound from the outside environment and helps reduce sound leakage, which means that the sound is contained within the earcups and therefore more intense. This could also contribute to the feeling of "feeling the sound" through the foam.
Also, you can use the WHCH720N headphones without connecting them to the Sony Headphone| Connect app. These headphones will still work as regular Bluetooth headphones and use them to listen music, make phone calls, and user other audio features.
However, connecting the headphones to the app provides additional functionality and customization options. For more details, please refer to this link: https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/2966/v1/en/contents/TP1000776844.html
In case you need assistance with the headphones, feel free to contact us by sending an email to socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following:

Sony Headset Noise Cancelling / Bluetooth
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Volume is good. Headset is a little bulky and the buttons for volume, on-off and answer/disconnect are difficult to find and manipulate. Price with my discount was the primary reason for the purchase.

Is not Noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just wasted $160 on headphones that aren’t even noise canceling. And the words are in the product name. I have settings set to noise canceling on the app, I double checked everything on the settings. Yet I’m sitting in a cafe and can hear everyone talking around me. And of course I missed the window to return the headphones. I hadnt tested out the noise canceling in a setting where it wasn’t already silent. So once I was in a slightly noisier place, of course they don’t work and of course it’s too late for a refund. Don’t waste your money on these. Subpar audio.

Its OK at best
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The older model was better. You can only connect one device to this model at a time. Also the soft plastic makes it feel cheap. A plus is it fully charges in lest than an hour and the noise csncellation is good.

Decent sound, poor connection
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had this for all of one day before deciding that it had to be returned. Making sure they were fully charged, updated with the latest firmware and then repaired to my phone, they still would not stop dropping the connection. When switched the sound from prioritizing quality to stability and it still randomly did it. A chime would kick in indicating that connection had been lost and it would immediately reconnect but this stopped sound playback and worse, did not automatically resume it after reconnecting. I came in and got the Soundcore Q45s instead. They haven't dropped once and have LDAC as a codec option.
