Sony Wireless Headphones WH-CH510: Wireless Bluetooth On-Ear Headset with Mic for Phone-Call, Black

I've owned these for a little over a month now and have gotten some time to make some deductions...Reason for purchase - my day to day headphones are AirPods, which I love. I own an Apple TV, and wanted some overhead headphones to pair for movies, especially at night, to avoid disturbing my neighbors. At first, I wanted one of the more expensive headphones (like the Beats or even higher priced Sonys) but wasn't ready to pay so much for something I'm not even using frequently.Pros -These are nice and light, with swiveling ear pieces. The battery life is great (35+ hours on one charge) - I have yet to charge them honestly! As soon as you turn it on, there's a voice indicating the battery percentage which is great. The sound quality is pretty good considering the price, though I'm sure there is better (no noise cancelling capabilities). The Bluetooth is 5.0 so the connectivity is reliable, works well in range, and more importantly helps maximize the battery life. I honestly connect it to my Apple TV and forget I'm not near the TV as I roam around my apartment. I love the simplicity of the cups design, just the logo.Cons -During ongoing phone calls, it's hard to ignore the light echo of your own voice. I can also faintly hear my footsteps while walking around my neighborhood, which could made these challenging to use in a busier setting like a city. The ear cups create a nice suction, but after a few hours, especially with my earrings, my earlobes get a little sore or just feel pressed. There are only 3 buttons on the right cup (skip - power/play - rewind); for some reason (might just be me), since I have it paired to more than one device (in my case my phone and my apple tv), I can't quite figure out how to make it "discoverable" without disabling my Bluetooth on the previously connected device.In spite of the cons, for the price, I am satisfied with this purchase. I probably would use these to travel via plane BUT with no headphone jack, (depending on the airline company) I'd be limited to wireless on my personal devices. Sony is a great company that makes reliable products, so I anticipate they'll last for a while.

Ordered these to replace some wired headphones that I was using for Zoom calls. My wife has the more expensive pair and while hers are truly nice, these are truly inexpensive. If you are on the phone all day, you may want to consider letting go of more cash for the nicer phones. However, for the calls I do, these are fantastic. My goal was to free up a USB port and start using Bluetooth. These work great. The sound quality is fantastic, they are lightweight and most of all, they are affordable. There are some negative points too. Here is my assessment.Pros:- Price, for the money, these are great little headphones.- Sound Quality, again, the sound quality is really good.- Pairing is very easy- Weight, they are very lightweight.- Microphone, it is built into the right ear pad but people say they hear me just fine, as good as my wired set I was using.Cons:- Ear pads are too small. I am a larger man and they do not surround my ears.- Cheap construction. Feels very "Plastic-y". I am hoping they will be durable enough for what I use them for.- Controls too close to the microphone. Now there is no need for this one. Adjusting volume during the call is done with buttons on the ear piece themselves. So everyone on the call can hear you fumbling with the volume controls. Way around that, mute to adjust volume I guess. But they could have put the mic on the other ear piece.Unknowns:- Battery Life, haven't had them that long so I am not sure on battery life. I charge them each night and they last for at least 2 or three calls per day.Conclusion:- These are actually great little headphones for the money.

I'm a first time headphone user and this is my first headphone. Overall, it's pretty great with a few minor problems.Reviews said the on-ear headphones later gets a little uncomfortable and your ears hurt a bit. That's definitely true, but I do minor adjustments or take off the headphones to relieve it and put it back on. Honestly for me it's not troublesome anyways, sometimes I just keep it on even if it does feel uncomfortable.I'd say the problem for me is the connection when it comes to calling. It takes a good minute or so to ACTUALLY connect even when it says "blue-tooth connected". The other day it randomly disconnected when I was in a discord call; I was just playing games with my friends until suddenly I don't hear them and soon the sound is coming from my laptop instead of my headphones. I had to manually reconnect the headphones again. This problem occurred one time though because I don't often call with headphones, but if it happens again I'll probably update this review. This problem doesn't occur when I'm listening to music for hours on end.(IDK if this is relevant, but I wore these headphones over my beanie hat btw, and the music quality is still great.)Also to add the call quality; you can hear your own background noises enhanced, I hear my papers crinkling and my stuff shuffling around when I'm in call with others; when you're in call you're music gets a bit drowned out to have a lowered volume. These aren't big issues though. I was also worried about sounding like I'm underwater but my friends told me I sound clear enough and it's normal if I sound a bit underwater anyways (whatever, as long as they hear me!).BTW I haven't used these headphones to call over the phone, just on my laptop on discord. So I can't say for sure how these headphones are, but when I do use them to call over the phone I'll update the review.Last one is a minor problem and it's the button functions; when I want to go back to the last song, it instead replays the song I'm currently listening. It takes a few attempts for the headphones to actually go back to the last song. Not a huge problem because I only use the button function when I'm too lazy to use my phone.But yeah, overall I like these headphones as my first one. I thought I'd regret it because of the uncomfortable ear part, but I like using these headphones when I want to draw and listen to music. Playing horror games with friends is also a blast!
