    honestly i was super impressed with the sound quality when you were outside. i'm looking for bluetooth headphones under $200 but with good enough sound quality. i'm planning on using them for work and music. thank you for the review!

      Don't buy this overpriced junk, and get the Soundcore Life Q35 instead. It beats Sony's tuning by a mile once you have the graphic EQ tweaked properly.

    These are actually excellent sounding headphones if you use the Sony app to set the equaliser. Hint: wind down the bass and treble, wind up the midrange. Like a bell curve.

    Thanks for your review! Don't think Sony (with their bass enhanced sound) will have that tonal balance you're looking for...but it works well for certain genres..
    The mic test...impressed me. Busy intersection, yet you could be easily understood (though your voice did sound a tad muffled). The background noise was reduced by a decent amount (more than I expected).

    • @imwhatsnew
      @imwhatsnew  ปีที่แล้ว

      It's sony's Tonal balance but not tuned upto 11
      . Which is good... Most importantly it sounds like the resposnse is reasonably smooth to the ear... Haven't actually measured it ofc

    If you were to choose between wh-h910n and the wh-ch720n, which would you choose? I've been on a journey online with some people saying that the 910n's are outdated and some people saying that the 720n's are crap and you should never get them. If the 910n's are maybe $30 more expensive than the 720n's in my area, would you get them?

    I do find a good reason to change the eq levels based on your location. Let’s say you go to the gym, and the music you listen at the gym is more base dominant, so you’ll wanna have a good eq mix for that genre. Same thing with a library, you wanna have a good eq mix for a more soothing genre

I was going to try these out but they don't have on/off ear detection and I got so used to just taking them off my ears and them pausing automatically and for that reason I think it's a deal breaker for me and I'll be re purchasing the JBL headset.

    Thanks for the great review.

On the other hand, what about the ear pads material quality? For those who have been wearing them for over a year, please let me know your experience.

      I haven't used the XB910 but generally it comes down to whether you want bass or not (at least from a sound quality point of view... I like the 720 which is still bass boosted but done to an extent and in a way that doesn't affect the clarity of the mids as much..

      If it helps, xb910 has an awful tuning in the bass. It can be fixed to a certain level with Poweramp but it has to be extremely tweaked. The 720s have much better tuning, not perfect though, but will take eq easier. Yoy can make theme sound really well and certainly more spacious. It's a shame not having LDAC with this tuning and so does the 910s have it. I agree, good hardware+good tuning is better than a codec+poor tuning. However, since the 720s can be played wired while being on and taking advantage of the DSP, at least you can try lossless audio that way
