Sony announce new mid-range headphones arriving in March

Sony has announced a pair of new mid-range headphones offering both over-ear and on-ear options which includes Sony’s great audio tech. 

The headliner is the over-ear WH-CH720N wireless headphones which offer up to 35 hours of battery life, and include Sony’s Dual Noise Sensor technology and Integrated V1 Processor – the same found in their WH- 1000XM5 headphones – and two microphones in each ear cup for improved noise cancelling. 

These headphones will come in a choice of three colours: Blue, White and Black.

The cheaper option is the WH-CH520 wireless headphones which come in an on-ear form factor and though they don’t include noise cancelling, you will get up to  50 hours battery life. Designed to be worn all-day in comfort, the headphones include a padded headband and soft earpads to help you find a comfortable fit, they also include enhanced call performance.

Sony will offer these in four colour options: Black, Blue, Cream and white. 

Both headphones include Sony’s Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) which will produce high-quality sound exactly as the artist intended says Sony, as well as Multipoint connection for easy connectivity between devices.

The WH-CH720N and WH-CH520 can also be personalised in terms of audio performance, with the Sony | Headphones Connect app – available for iOS and Android – offering an equaliser to customise your experience. 

Sony says the headphones are designed with the environment in mind, with no plastic used in the packaging of either headphones – and both headphones use recycled material in their construction.
