Sony - WH-CH520

thanks for the recs everyone - I’ve ordered Sony ch520 from PriceOye :D

very good experience! I have used them everyday since they were delivered and the sound quality is absolutely excellent. also very easy and convenient to switch on/off. definitely recommend. And PriceOye’s service is also really good - they send packaging video of your parcel and the process is uper smooth.

haven’t tried the app so I can’t say. Noise isolation is pretty good though - not 100% noise cancelling but I can barely hear anythingggg when I’m using them so a solid 8/10

I'm using the Sony CH-520s, which are incredibly good value for money. No one has ever had trouble understanding my voice. The audio is really excellent, even for music. The great thing is that I always keep them on and connected to my PC so they're ready for an unexpected call, and the battery lasts a long time anyway. I think they go into standby mode, but they're ready right away when you need them.

Sony Wh-520 worth the investment

i think Sony's [WH-CH520](https://electronics.sony.com/audio/headphones/headband/p/whch520-l)s (good lord Sony get better product names) are pretty up there for budget headphones. i have the previous gen of these things and they're my longest running headphones (and i use them every day for workouts). recently replaced the cups on them cuz they're otherwise mint. no ANC tho.

Comfy siya for me and it fully cancels the noise sa gym. Every wear pinupunasan ko ng wet tissue and i spray a lot of alcohol yung area na may sweat then air dry. So far pag nadadala ko siya sa office amoy baby powder daw yung headphones ko nung hiniram to check kasi balak bumili ng same headphones yung kateam ko haha! I use FRESH BTS alcohol (purple) and my headphones is SONY WH-CH520

Sony wh series I have the wh-ch520s now, after having had a second hand pair of wh ch400s for five years or so. Who knows how long they’d been used before I got them? The 520s have lasted me well over a year now and I see no reason to think they’ll fail any time soon. They almost never need a charge unless you forget to turn them off. The battery goes for 50 hours of active play or something insane like that. And they’re relatively cheap, which I prefer for something that’s going to get beaten up in my backpack or accidentally worn to sleep in bed or whatever If you can live without noise cancellation, IMO these are the sweet spot for audio quality vs price. And yeah, comfortable

**Avoid these Chinese rebranded budget headphones.** Even the name *"Zero Lifestyle"* doesn’t inspire much confidence. I was considering buying them last week, but thanks to some solid advice from this subreddit, I decided to go with the **Sony WH-CH520** and honestly, they're fantastic for the price. The **sound quality is clear**, the **battery life is impressive**, and overall, they’ve exceeded my expectations. If you’re someone who prefers **deeper bass**, you might want to consider the **JBL Tune 520BT** they deliver more punch but slightly compromise on sound clarity compared to the Sony.

I have the Sony WH-CH 720n and had the Sony WH-CH 520 before that, and I've been thinking about upgrading to the WH-1000XM4! I like the 720n, they're confortable to wear even for long periods probably because they're so light and fairly sized- but the sound quality just doesn't do it for me. I can hear them but I don't 'feel' the music as much as I want to! It's missing that 'oomph' I'm looking for that makes the hair on your arms stand up and gives you goosebumps! Plus, the sound bleeds through the headphones even at lower volumes which is not ideal since I'm often around others. The XM4 are said to have significantly better sound! While still being in my price range ($100-$200) which is great!! But I just first wanted to make sure that there weren't any better options out there within the same price range of $100-200, before I decide on the XM4. What I'm looking for are headphones that work both wirelessly and plugged, have terrific sound, are comfortable to wear where they don't squeeze or feel tight on the head, don't audio bleed too bad... yeah! Are there any that do it all or most of it better than the XM4, or should I just go with them?

Not buds, but I just bought a Sony WH-CH520 wireless headphones, which do both of those things incredibly well for super cheap. The padding would really help with the noice caneling while you are talking on the phone, and they snap on really well and I use them for excercise and they dont come off. It also has an app where you can adjust the settings so you get the sound you are looking for.

Hi, I have a Sony WH-CH520 with a dead left speaker. I can't find proper replacements here for the speaker driver. I'm thinking of getting a cheaper wired headphone with the same driver size and replace both the speakers. Specifically looking at the Sony ZX310AP or the ZX110A, leaning more towards the 310. Would this be a huge difference with the current one? I just need it to be good enough for a while. Thanks in advance.
