- The Sony WH-CH520 on-ear headphones might be the best headphones that you can get right now for under £50. In fact these are so good for the money some say they are punching way above their weight.

The 510 are THE MOST underrated Sony product. The 520 sound similar and are very comfy
Does this thing have noise cancellation
@@donotdisturb1987 No, because just over ear headphones have ANC.
When you start hearing yourself the quality of sound become worse and it's really annoying to hear yourself
And also there is no way to turn it off
@residentzero is the bass really good tho? like can uou feel the music in your veins?
Bought mine a month ago, the sound's really good, and maybe because of those air vents, it handles bass well! The app for these headphones is really handy, and the equalizer can boost the bass even more (which I really like :) The multi-point connection is also great as when I'm on a Meet and I need to play music, Spotify gets muffled by the Meet. Then, I can just play it from my phone and it works great! Also, the moment my headphones turn on, they automatically connect, and when you pair them to your Android for the first time, you can even see the headphones popping up with the headphones in the exact color you got them!
how is the comfort level like? i see this CH-520 has a small ear cup i'm afraid it would hurt the ears after prolonged use as i typically use them for many hours straight.
edit: nevermind i just realize it is on-ear, not over-ear headphones and im looking at the wrong category
It's been 3 weeks has it broke yet?
@@edwingago9418 nope. in fact, its really sturdy and suprisingly doesn't have cracked ear cups :)
@@86soulx to be honest, on-ear is more comfortable for me. though it might differ for you, but lemme tell you, theyre really comfy😌😌
How's the earcups quality after long term use?
Thank you for your in-depth review on these headphones. I have been looking for a pair that are not going to break the bank and I think that these will do very nicely! They will be better than the ear buds I currently have which keep falling out at the gym. Looking forward to getting some very soon. Thanks again 😊
One thing that is best about these headphones is: they are on the ear.....I live in hot and humid country and over the ear headphones are hard to wear for longer time....thanks they are bringing back this design
Best review for these headphones. I bought the white ones after watching your video and wow I was really surprised! They look great, feel really comfortable, feel good quality, and they sound really good for the price wow! And the app is great too where you can change the sound to your liking am so glad I purchased these thanks to your video ! I got mine for £39 at Argos in UK bargain
Thank you for such an in-depth review!! I really appreciate you giving us your own opinion and expertise too. This is exactly what I was looking for 🙏🏾
best review. to the point with no extra waffle. Thanks. subscribed
i want waffles
I just bought mine last week and in my experience I think its really good it support spacial audio and the 50 hours promise is impressive with a single charge can last a week and more for me.
Does it have connectivity issues?
What is app name?
The app is called Sony headphones (or something like that, for iOS). My experience so far is really good, bass is good (with the right customization for sound in the app) sound quality I’ll rate is a 7.5 or 8 out of 10. It’s no joke, these headphones are good the only problem I may have when it comes to these headphones is that there is no travel case lol, except for that i had it for a day and there is nothing wrong yet.
Hey, does this support for office calling calls purpose as well..pls conform
@@manikoushik3045 I would think so, considering the fact that these headphones were made for everyday use except for exercise i believe.
Thanks for reviewing this underrated model. Hope to see you make more review of other affordable budget headphones
Great review Man! The only detailed review I have got on this product.
Just got them, unpacked them, put them on, googled how to manually pair them with PC and voila, best review of the product and I 100% agree. Thanks and well done!
Your Custom EQ is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING….!!!!! I Loved It…!!! Thank You 😁😁😁
I got one 5 months ago and gotta say its great. Thank you giving me a bit of inspiration.
Got mine today at the official Sony store and I must say I am impressed. Sound is good and build is quality. Very lovely, these pair
Can you give me the long term review of those?
Thank you for your review. I have just ordered my pair.
This is a terric review!
I just got these for Christmas. They are a giant leap forward from my 510s. I haven't taken a call yet, but your demonstration of the mic is amazing! I'm still discovering features. But the quality of the construction and physical engineering is so intuitive and natural that I immediately knew how to operate them, and position them. The sound and ear cups are the best quality - even without LDAC. My favorite thing about these is the price. This quality for this price is insane. Also, I wear them for entire days. They don't die, and they don't hurt my ears - even after 8 or more hours.
Really informative thank you. I have decided to purchase these thanks to your video have a wonderful day 😊
It's a great review! I learned a lot about the Sony 520 headphones, I'm going to buy one, just because I need a lightweight! Thank you
Your EQ is amazing!! Thank youuu
Got one yesterday ❤ amazing build and sound quality.. love it ❤️
Bros how's it now?like a long term review
Hi , thnx for the clear and outstanding review. Now I definitely gonna order this type of headphones. Keep up the good work. And mate, cheers. Have a nice day. Best regards E. 😊
Been eyeing on this one for weeks, and now it's on the way!
Nice
Great review. Straight to the point. Subscribed!
I bought these specifically because of this video and I absolutely love them, so worth the price.✨
Just subscribed cuz you did the best mic test 🎉
I bought it for 18 euros. Used but still feels and looks like new. Worth it 🔥..
Good review💯
Im getting my WH-CH520 tomorrow And judging from ur video the only Problem is the mic. But everything else is literally perfect!!
Super review, thanks, going to purchase the cream ones. 😁 x
Great review thanks mate. Ordered these today based purely on my brand loyalty to Sony without seeing any reviews. I have the XM4 inner ear phones but finding they are irritating my ears after long use. These look perfect and you've justified my purchase. Thanks 👍
Are they comfortable?? Like does it hurt your ears if we use it for a longer duration.
@@Disha_2211I've found them to be yeah. I much prefer them to the in-ear ones
Got mine for $35 used. At first I was not impressed (coming from the HD 598se with a BTRK5). However, watching videos and listening to podcast were quite good. After taking my time with EQ, the value is just phenomenal for the sound!!
You reckon I can refund mine. It doesn't say you need a 360 audio service subscription in the box and only found out know even after I opened it I packaged it back up no marks nothing
@glypthz you should be able to refund it just for not being satisfied with it of course within the return date
About to buy rn thanks bro! Subbed
As a certified audio engineer this is amazing!
Excellent presentation skills👍
I just purchased them and am really impressed with the sound quality, especially with your equalizer setting. Thanks for that!
Do they have noise cancellation
@@adriancamacho489 No.
@@adriancamacho489 Don't really need noise cancellation
How's the earcups quality??-
@@adriancamacho489no
You are amazing, I was about to cry because I thought they got damaged, Thank you so much
when i saw the thumb i wasnt sure if this video was going to be in English but im glad that it was
i barely reach 5 min and i finshed the last step and bought them online just now the comment about them being able to work 50 h instant hooked me
Thank you for this fantastic video. Can you also share your custom eq settings for the wh ch520 specifically for indie rock and vocal heavy songs like in your sony wh ch720N review video!! Thank you again❤
Thanks mate this was useful 👍
thanks for the info!
After watching this video i went and got these, they are so good, the most comfortable headphones i ever wore. I used to hate wearing headphones, but after these.😮💨🤤
I just got my WH-CH720N’s and they are amazing
I got a pair for Christmas, I can’t wait to use them
I love the CH510 very light decent audio quality the battery life is phenomenal, I just ordered the newer CH520 version, plain on giving my beloved 510’s to my sister. Hopefully they’ll last her since she seems to be more rough on her things.
I'm going to buy one, which one do u recommend 510 or 520?
This video made me buy this product. Always loved Sony's products, Its arriving soon lets hope to be blown away....
How are they
@@samnov9458 he blown away
Bro The best review I have ever seen in my life 🛐
do you have a review on Sony WH-CH720? nice review, btw! ty!
Great review-thank you. Does it have capability for me to ask Siri to make a call, end call, or turn volume up or down if needed for completely hands free when necessary?
Hi great review thanks 🙏, would you say you could go jogging whilst wearing these if it’s dry outside?
I still have the WH CH-500s, they are amazing, the battery still last more than 10 hours.
Been using them since release. Very impressed with the sound for the price. Use them at the gym and with my iPad. I also own a pair of studio Sennheiser headphones for my gaming desktop.
Obviously they aren’t as good but they’re shockingly not far off which is crazy for the price and the fact they’re Bluetooth.
How are they still holding up? Good and light weight for the gym still?
@@grayza2988 I have. There's some delay but it's not too bad. They are best for music listening on the go.
@@QuikSnoopy Still holding up. Battery lasts me for weeks before needing to charge and volume is good.
They are lightweight and never get in the way of my workouts. It fits my head very snug.
@@portman8909 do u use it at the gym? if so, did the sound quality decrease? i heard they weren't sweat resistant :(
Is it comfortable for 1to 2 hour of use?
Just bought mine, I usually wear cheap earphones because of the basic sound of them since too much bass sounds strange to me, but because of the app I thought might as well since I can customise them, I’ll update when they arrive 👀
How do they sound?
how are they👁️👁️
Thanks for the review. Just saw these on sale for 39.99 at Best Buy
Wow! Amazing price
Is there an equalizer app for the headphones on PC? Also isn't re-adjusting the equalizer basically messing around with the studio mixing of a given song?
Thank you for this review
Love it! Just wonder does it work for gaming like FPS?
That microphone is impressiveeee
Great review. However doing a durability test of the product would have made this a phenomenal review.
Don't know if the twist and bend well.
great review! do they leak sound at all?
I had all 3 Generations of them. First the 500, then the 510 and now I have gotten myself the 520s as my 510s are slowly starting to lose their power.
And I have to say, the 520s are the best budget Headphones you can get, the vocals are very clear, they have very good EQ Options and the Bass on these Headphones are richer and overall just very good compared to the 510s. And what I find good about the 520s is, that you finally have the ability to use the Sony Headphones app, to get more out of your headphones and to connect your Headphones more seamlessly to your device.
So, if you come from your 510s and you want to upgrade to a newer pair of Sony headphones for a good budget, the 520s are the best choice for you!
Thanks bro, i was looking for a comparison and saw your comment
Excellent review, thank you so much. I appreciate you man.
Good review but i got some questions.... How about noise leakage, ANC and the build..? I don't want the headphones to just break apart.
My brother got them yesterday for my 21st. My goodness they're so good for the price!! I'm impressed
Happy belated birthday.
Could you comment on their battery life; how long do they run for after a full charge?
@@elmo4672 oh thank youuuu!!!! Honestly they are so good. When I got them they were fully charged and it took me about 4 ish days of every day use to charge them.
Correction: 4 days of use UNTIL I had to charge them
@@sarasegador8998 I see. That's good news for me since I had to charge my old headphones every single day. Thank you for your time and the information, I'll be getting mine today : )
How's the earcups quality?? I'm thinking of buying in the beige colour and can't find any spare earcups of the same colour
Great video!
Nice Review, loved it
Are the headphones sound canceling? I usually use headphones in a quiet classroom and I don’t want to disturb anyone; I’ve had past experiences where others can hear what I’m listening to and I’m unaware of it.
Finally upgraded from wired Sony headphones to wireless. Got mine yesterday! 🇵🇭 Very lightweight indeed
Are these comfortable? I'm looking for some lightweight and comfy headphones with decent sound and base.
@@Smelly_Penis0999 i am already accustomed to on-ear headphones than over-ear, so i find this very comfy - even when lying down. They don't slide when I dance to songs hehe. Long battery hrs, too!
@@dettygabyelle thanks for helping me out, gonna buy these today :)
Have a very nice day.
Your review convinced me to buy one. I got the cream color!
@@dettygabyelle Hey sorry for not replying, got the headphones and I'm loving these! The battery life is insane and these are really comfy! Thanks again.
Love you, finally fixed 💚
ever since i brought it, it has never ran out of battery
Are these headphones good for dancing or regorous physical activities? Since i am looking for headphones both comfertable for use of long hours and stable and sturdy because i workout (cardio) a lot. Thanks!
wow great quality, good sound, an AI assistant and a compatible app. what a bargain I was thinking of getting these now Im sold
Thanks for the review, went to find'em online and found a brand-new one for $40! Excited for'em to arrive.
@@admiralalyssa how's the sound quality?
@thearcane2665 Funnily enough was listening to music when you commented on this.
On my from Jazz and rock or Rap, the audio is very balanced. The quality is awesome for the price. I don't mess with any advanced settings but I do wish I could make the sound a little louder. Besides that, I've had no issues.
@@admiralalyssa Thanks, i'm going to order it
@@admiralalyssa how is the sound quality of the vocals? Are they good for story based video games and Netflix?
@@smrushaan2654 Despite being Sony headphones, they don't connect to my PS5. If you play on PC and only want to enhance a story game like Ghost of Tsushima or BG3 it should be fine. I doubt they have the proper audio balance to help listen to footsteps in multiplayer games.
I recently saw Bruce Almighty, Austin Powers, and The Incredibles with these headphones. Performance was solid for the price. It's not going to compete with a home theater but when I'm outside of my house and have time for a movie, I'm happy with the quality, although, like my last comment, I wish the audio could be pushed higher.
Hope that helps!
Hi! Thanks for this. I just got a pair and can't connect them to my laptop. Any change you have a vid on that?
Bright and excited EQ
how to do factory reset of this? its not connecting with any bluetooth devices like windows and android apps
How's the comfort level with glasses on? I like to watch movies on my tablet, but I need to wear glasses to see.
I just ordered mine for gym. Back in the days we used to be on the Sony Ericssons or JVC wire headphones. Then I started using SMS audio headphones, the sound on them was the best I’ve experienced. It’s been a while and Unfortunately SMS are jack only.
I wouldn’t mind some wireless ones were I can intercept audio calls too. It’s crazy how times have changed. Are these good with iPhones?
Good review. I bought this model to my daughter.
Everytime I buy headphones the sound can be heard when I'm wearing them. Any recommendations for headphones that don't have the sound leakage ?
How fast does it connect with your mac devices? like macbook/iphone etc. and are there any latency when listning to music?
Does this have noise cancelling? Or at least, if I’m listening to a song with max volume, is it fully audible without external interference??
Can u try to review the Baseus H1 bowie? And then compare it to the sony ch520, i believe they have the same specs
Excellent review! I have just ordered a pair from Argos!
On offer at the mo 39.99 .. but I can’t decide on colour. Blue or black ?
@@matthewcreed8096 You can't wrong £39.99! I am really satisfied with my headphones! I normally opt for black but I went for blue! I bought my wife a pair last week in white!
How about the conversation mode? Do you hear your voice and surrounding sound while voice calling with others? They call it Sidetone and can't be disabled, which is a bit annoying on the previous Version WH-CH510
I bought my WH-CH520 headset from Best Buy a couple of months back. I never used it until I unboxed it this week. It has failed to connect to any device I try to pair with. Be it Smart TV, iPhone or Android phones….. Any suggestions?
I just got this yesterday, the same exact headphones and color. And searched some reviews to see if I missed some hidden features.
Love that review
Thanks for this
I’m sold! I’m a broke uni student but that won’t stop me from buying this headphones .. not after this review
But what about the latency? That is a huge point for me when it comes to wireless headphones. Can I use it for gaming?
Hi Great review ! just a quick question ? Which app do I have to down load. ?
Sony headphones app
just got them from the amazon prime day deal and im so excited (ive been using trashy miniso headphones)
I just got them, too! $38 USD seems like a steal
Been using it for two weeks now and it is great. I have only charged it twice even when the battery is still around 50%. I am also wondering if it is okay to charge it using a fast charger.
does it have noise cancelation?
@@gigiesan wala raba brod
Do they leak sound?
its definitely one of the best headphones for its price. But they feel too light, so light that they feel cheap. The buttons also feel cheap. Otherwise its an amazing headphones and i would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a budget headphone.
I mean heavy headphones give me headaches
Wonder how much of a Downgrade they'll be from the CH710, as one of the swivels is broken and hanging by wire...
But if it is too heavy, most people will feel uncomfortable after wearing it a while.
You should do review of the Sony 910n!
Would you recommend these for the gym? Are they sweat proof?
Will these work for PS5 gaming ? Including Mic thanks mate
Messaging from California. Question: What app is that that you’re using in your tutorial? I just got my headphones today and I downloaded the app from Sony. I went thru the equalizer set up steps, but it doesn’t look anything like what you show. It appears that you have the ability to adjust the various sound ranges with your finger. I’d like to do the same. Thank you!
Anyone ever tried to use an adapter with the usb-c port to try and play music into a 3.5 mm audio jack system?
Nice 1.
How much r they in the UK ?
