Features
Make your music more natural
When an original music source is compressed, it loses the high-frequency elements that add detail and richness to a track. Our Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) faithfully restores these to produce high-quality sound that’s closer to the original recording
Listen for hours, charge in minutes
Enjoy up to 20 hours of listening thanks to the handy charging case. In a hurry? A 10-minute quick charge gives you up to an hour of extra play time.
Splashes and sweat, no problem
With an IPX4 water resistance rating, splashes and sweat won’t stop these headphones – so you can keep on moving to the music.
Easier, clearer hands-free calling
Conversation flows freely with easy hands-free calling, now clearer than ever with a high-quality built-in microphone. You won’t even have to take your phone out of your pocket.
Small and light, a great fit
Designed small, these buds fit securely and comfortably in your ears. The rounded shape without edges makes them a pleasure to wear, leaving you free to focus on what matters – your music.
Go anywhere, pocket-sized case
The cylindrical charging case is extremely small and easy to carry around in a pocket or bag so you can take your earbuds everywhere you go. Its translucent lid with a texture like frosted glass gives the case a stylish, luxurious look and feel.
Ergonomic Surface Design
Since introducing the first in-ear headphones in 1982, we’ve surveyed huge amounts of data relating to ear shapes from around the world. The WF-C500 headphones are the product of that research, combining a shape that matches the ear cavity with new ergonomic surface design.
Your sound, just how you like it
Tailor sound to your personal preference. Choose from a variety of presets to match sound quality with the genre of music you're listening to. Or create and save your own presets using the EQ Custom feature on the Sony │ Headphones Connect app.
One earbud, ideal for multitasking
If you want to listen to your music while still being able to have a conversation, remove one earbud only from the charging case and use as normal
Easy button operation
The buttons on the WF-C500 headphones not only let you play, stop, or skip through tracks and adjust the volume – they also offer an easy way to access your smartphone’s voice assistant and make and receive calls hands-free.
So immersive. So real.
Immerse yourself in sound all around you. As real as if you are there at a live concert or with the artist recording in a studio. With 360 Reality Audio, music has never been so immersive and so real.6 These headphones let you enjoy 360 Reality Audio.

Highly recommend
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I went from Powerbeats pro to these! The Powerbeats pro kept disconnecting on me and couldn’t update these I absolutely love because battery lasts forever and they charge pretty fast, too! And it’s the first earbuds that have ever stayed in my ear without some thing helping it. They’re light without that cheap feel! They don’t hurt and I forget I have them in. Well until someone talks to me and they sound muffled. Haha! They’re great with background noise cancellation. I highly recommend!

Satisfied purchase,
|Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these earbuds as an employee to not only test for product knowledge but also for personal use. With that being said, they're GREAT sounding earbuds. I personally wouldn't say they are the greatest out there however, for the price, size, features, and all around everything these earbuds have to offer, they're really great. I would absolutely recommend the Sony WF-C500's to anyone looking for a cheap, med-high quality, and portable set of earbuds.

Sony and it's Auditory Excellence!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.5 Stars, Thumbs Up, 10/10 w.e. else to describe this mid-range, affordable and premium TWS contender of a Audio Experience! Maybe a bit of a Sony fan, but this fits more comfortable than the XM4's to me. Do they sound better than the XM4'S? No, but man do they sound good! Sony's EQ App is also a gem to work with, these sub $100 earbuds can mop the floor with some of the "big boys" in terms of Audio Mastery. Sure they lack ANC, no In Ear Detection.... But I did not purchase these for that, I wanted great audio without paying more than $200. I already have other sets of TWS earbuds I wanted something to take with me on the fly and not have to worry about losing, misplacing or getting my investment stolen. So Sony thank you, thank you for another product that I am sure to enjoy. If you're looking for the latest features like ANC, In Ear Detection, etc look elsewhere or pay more or buy Soundcore products. This is meant for decent to above average audio.

Sony earbuds
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best ear buds I’ve ever purchased. Not great for work due to the noise cancellation but great for ignoring your wife lol. You can use them as a pair or one at a time. The battery life is EXCELLENT… I’ve never had them die. I would recommend

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionSome comments say you are able to use one headphone at a time but does it matter which one? Headphones that only connect one to the phone and then the second one to the first is a deal breaker
Asked by Mdj4715.
- A:Answer No it doesn’t matter which one you use. For work I use my left one all day. At home I’ll use my right one in. Most times I don’t feel like putting both in. Whichever one I’m using, I leave the other one inside the case. You’ll be fine using just one for a while. They last very long. I charge my case once a week. So you’re okay to just use one if that’s what you choose to do

Q: QuestionDo these have physical buttons or touch capacitive sensors?
Asked by Kalamazou.
- A:Answer Each earbud has one button. It’s physical touch to turn up the volume, turn down the volume, pick up a phone call or hang up a phone call. Also they can be used for whatever voice assistant your phone uses. I got my self a pair. I love them. They also have a very clear instruction booklet that also teaches you how to use each earbud. The box itself also has a QR scanner code that you can scan and the website also has the same instructions if you don’t wanna read the instruction booklet.

Q: QuestionCan these headphones work with an apple watch series 6? Specifically, I want to know if I can use them with my apple watch to listen to my music while out of the house on an outdoor run, without my iPhone on me.
Asked by blueblur94.
- A:Answer They will work for that, just be aware that any EQ settings from the Headphones app won’t work because the Apple Watch doesn’t support it.

Q: QuestionCan these ear phones be used while watching TV? If so is there a base that gets attached to the tv or box?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer If your TV has Bluetooth, then yes these can be used on it. You just need to connect them, you don’t need a fancy box or anything. Just look up the pairing process and take it from there.
