Best Headphones I Ever Owned, Especially for the Money
I have spent years fighting to find a decent pair of bluetooth headphones since no phone manufacturer wants to make a decent phone with a jack anymore (which is endlessly stupid, but I digress). I have tried everything form fancy expensive Galaxy Buds to a myriad of budget options, and all have the same problems. Flawed connectivity, noticeably glitchy, slightly reduced sound quality.These finally fix it. The inclusion of an option to use a headphone jack on devices that let you is a great feature. Along with multipoint connect. They fit perfectly around my skinny neck (your mileage may very on that), so travel with them is a breeze. And for the sound quality, these are absolutely the best headphones for your money.I was loathe to go to overears full time because I like being able to take one out to hear my surroundings, and every noise passthrough I used before was sucky. (usually the outside noise obnoxiously trebley). Not with these. I actually go to concerts to listen with my headphones on because it actually makes the concerts sound better than with no headphones. Extremely convincing, near perfect noise passthrough.The app is easy to use and has a great selection of features: from custom EQs, to adjusting the noise pass through, to other various quality of life settings. The 3D adaptive sound feature is great, though a little tricky to set up at first, and noise cancellation is very good, though not the best in the world. The battery life is also almost unbelievable. I use these headphones a lot–sometimes all day–and I still only have to charge them once or twice a week. Multipoint connection is also a very nice plus if, say, I am working at my computer and still want to be able to answer phone calls hands-free.There are some minor flaws with them, though. First sometimes very low bassey notes from the outside world can trigger the speakers in them and give you very loud, deep popping noises. (E.g., this occasionally happens when I am riding in the car and hitting bumps in the road). Occasional outside sounds in passthrough through will sound muddled. Also the noise cancellation–while quite good–isn’t perfect for every situation. Specifically, it has more trouble than, say, Bose headphones with loud, sudden sounds like fireworks. But for the money, it is still the best noise cancellation and passthrough system you can buy.Another (minor) complaint, though, is that the adaptive settings aren’t always very great. It often thinks I am sitting and automatically turns on noise cancellation when I am very much driving or walking around town or once even ice skating–all situations where passthrough is crucial. And even if I am sitting, sometimes I really want passthrough on (like if I’m in a cafe), but it automatically tries to turn noise cancelling on annoyingly. Thankfully, it can be easily overridden in the app. These days, I usually just keep the adaptive sound setting off and adjust the settings to fit the situation but sometimes it will randomly go back to automatic/adaptive mode.My final and complaint is with the microphone for phone calls. Sometimes it works perfectly and the other line can hear my fine, sometimes all they can hear is background noise, sometimes they really can’t hear me at all. I am not sure if it is some sort of firmware issue or if the microphone placement is just too far from my mouth, but for phone calls it can be a tad unreliable. When it works, which is around 75% of the time, it’s perfectly good even though I have to talk a little louder than I normally would sometimes.But all those flaws aside, these are probably the best all-around headphones I have owned and for the $120 I paid for them it’s a steal. They may be more expensive as I got them on sale, but I have used headphones multiple times the price that are poorer quality and less functional than these. I’d have paid upwards of twice the price for what I got.
M.O.S. –
These won out over every other set of headphones I tried
UPDATE 3/13/23: I noticed another reviewer mention that the padding has given out some after a while and I will concur that this has been my perceived experience as well. The padding flattens easily and I wish it was a bit more robust. I wouldn’t say that the speakers are poking my ear, but I do feel my ear being pressed slightly and it does lead to minor discomfort over time. So I would say that the padding could definitely be better on these, and it should be at this price point. I would maybe deduct a half star for this if that was an option, but since it’s not, I’m keeping my 5 star rating. I’m still happy with the sound, but I’ll definitely be looking out for some better pads.Original Review:I’m impressed with these headphones. They are really good. I will, however, call out from the beginning that you lose some functionality and build quality (potentially – more on that below) seen in more expensive headphones and even though these are “only” $150, I think it’s a bit pricey. But I think good headphones are just ridiculously expensive in general. With that out of the way, here are the headphones I tried in addition to the WH-CH720N: Sony XM4 & XM5, Sennheiser Momentum 4, Soundcore Q30 & Q45, and Technics EAH-A800.My main objective in getting new headphones was to get a serious sound quality upgrade from the Soundcore Life Q20âs that I’ve had for several years now, and I was finally ready to pay $300-$400 for it if I had to. I was looking for clear mids and highs with deep, clear, separate bass (think of the difference between a sound system with a separate subwoofer vs a sound system without that tries to pack the bass into the main speakers). With the caveat that sound quality is subjective to the listener, here are my thoughts on each of the headphones I tried:Technics EAH-A800 – absolute garbage and a joke at their price. These didnât even merit more than a few minutes of listening.Soundcore Q45 – disappointingly uninspiring sound compared to the much cheaper Q30. They lack bass. I spent very little time with these because I knew that I would take the Q30âs over them without question.Soundcore Q30 – These are very good for their price (compared to the other options at that price). If I hadn’t been willing to spend $300+ for the best sound, I would have kept these despite the fact that they powered off in the middle of calls (a problem I believe is specific to OnePlus phones based on my research). But compared to more expensive headphones, the Q30’s bass was not as well defined/separated and it bled into all the frequencies, lending to an overall muddy sound – comparatively. But these are good, and at their price point, I doubt you can find better headphones.Momentum 4 – These headphones had, hands down, my favorite bass signature; it was fantastically clean and able to hit impressive lows I could not hear in any other cans. The overall sound was very good, although I never could get them to sound as clear as I wanted once I experienced the 720’s. The M4âs have fantastic battery life. Sadly, there were quite a few issues with the M4âs. They sound awful in wired mode – like, donât even bother, theyâre that bad. Taking calls on the M4s was a very weird experience; itâs hard to explain, but voices sounded kind of echo-y, but in the sense that it was like the voice was everywhere around me to the extent that I was sure that everyone else in the room was hearing the voice just as clearly as I was. I couldnât decide if I liked it or not – all I can say for sure is that it was a very strange experience. The M4’s had software bugs that I just couldn’t overlook, such as the audio being out of sync with video when using aptx (I had to use the lower SBC format to get the audio in sync and this just didn’t make any sense!). The touch controls and on ear detection were a bit of a hit or miss. Software updates are unreasonably slow – like 20 minutes or longer. They are quiet – I found that I had to crank them up well past 50% to get enough volume, but at the end of the day, it didnât really matter because they did get as loud as I ever needed and still had the ability to go louder. And they are on the heavier side, which meant they didn’t stay in place on my head if I looked down or up. I actually ordered a second pair hoping that the software issues were a defect, but the replacement had all the same issues. But that bass was so good I was tempted, even prepared, to overlook all of those shortcomings. Until I tried the XM5’s and the 720’s.Sony XM4 – I’m sure these were great for their time, but their age is evident. The sound was muddy and uninspiring to me. I quickly moved on from these.Sony XM5 – these are good – very good. I would have kept the XM5’s if the 720âs hadnât been released just as I was comparing all of these headphones. The sound is very close to the 720’s, but just not quite as clear, though I think the bass may go a bit lower than the 720’s. It really mostly came down to price when deciding between the XM5 and 720. The XM5’s are feature rich with an excellent ambient mode (the best Iâve experienced). ANC is good, but not at the level I expected for their reputation and really not significantly better than most other headphones. Compared to the 720âs, Iâd say the ANC actually blocked out less noise, but the XM5âs made almost no static sound with ANC on and that may have played into that perception because I think the slight static noise the 720âs make might just be covering up the external noises that Iâm hearing more on the XM5âs. But getting the absolute best ANC was not the most important thing for me. I liked the touch controls on the XM5âs – it’s easier than feeling around for the correct button. But is it worth the price? Not for me – I’ll take the trade-offs of the 720’s for the savings, especially since I think the 720’s sound better. But I can easily see how someone would buy the XM5âs over the 720âs if money is not an issue.Finally, Sony WH-CH720N – these really are best described as the budget version of the XM5âs. Remember how I mentioned that they sound very similar to the XM5âs? Yeah, sometimes I forgot which headphones I was wearing, they are that close (post EQ-ing them to the best sound I could get from them). The ANC and Ambient modes arenât quite as good on the 720’s, they donât have touch controls (a positive or negative depending on the person), and they donât feel as solidly built (though I might argue that is only because of how incredibly light they are – they actually seem well built and there are no creaks, but their lightness is easily perceived as âcheapâ). The 720âs donât come with a case and they donât fold (but the XM5âs donât fold, either); not a big deal to me. Not folding just means they have fewer breaking points and are less obnoxious to handle when off the noggin. These live on my desk, so a case is not important to me. For traveling, I prefer the compactness of earbuds anyway. The auto off feature only works after they lose bluetooth connection, which for the majority of us, only happens if we turn our phone off or walk far away from the headphones. So, not significant value there, though I do turn off my phone every night, so the headphones will at least shut off at night if I forget to do it manually, and that is good enough for me. The 720âs are strictly controlled with physical buttons that are well placed, though I find myself expecting the ANC/Ambient button to be on the back, not the front (donât know why, because it actually makes sense the way they did it), causing me to push the wrong button more than Iâd like. And I wish the volume up and down were more distinct from the play/pause button. The buttons are my only real (but minor) complaint, but I’m getting used to the buttons and will be fine in short order. The 720âs are slim compared to the XM5âs and the M4âs. And did I mention they are light? They are insanely light and extremely comfortable. Most importantly, the 720âs sound really good. While they donât quite have the bass signature of the M4âs, they are so well balanced and clear across all of the frequencies (without being harsh or sibilant) while still having great, clear bass that it could be argued that the 720âs sound better. I just kept finding myself going back to the 720âs over every other set of cans. These headphones won out over the rest from my limited (but targeted) comparison. There might be better sounding headphones out there, but I haven’t found them.

Super Comfortable
Aesthetics/Design: 3/5These headphones have a typical over-the-ear design, so thereâs nothing groundbreaking in terms of looks. However, they do have a premium feel.Comfort: 4.6/5The comfort is outstanding, even better than the premium version! These headphones are super light and donât press excessively on your ears. The ear cups provide ample room, and your ears wonât heat up even after long periods of wear.Sound Quality: 3.5/5The noise cancellation isnât as effective as more premium models, but overall sound quality is great. The sound is well-balanced and can be adjusted through the EQ if needed.Versatility/Features: 3.5/5These headphones are versatile enough for a light run or gym session if you prefer over-the-ear headphones for workouts. However, they are best suited for lounging and listening to music. A standout feature is the ability to touch and hold one earphone to temporarily allow ambient sound while in noise cancellation mode. This means you can hear someone speaking to you without pausing or switching off noise cancellationâa super clever feature.OverallThese headphones offer good value for the money, especially if youâre not an audiophile and just want decent quality. If theyâre on sale for $100, theyâre a great deal. Their comfort is a significant advantage because high sound quality doesnât matter much if you can only wear them for a short time.

Estou satisfeita com o fone. Ele é leve, emparelha com todos os meus dispositivos e carrega rapidamente. A redução de ruÃdos é muito boa também. Contudo, fiquei um pouco frustrada mesmo por ele não vir com o estojo para viagem, que é vendido de forma avulsa e custa quase R$200,00. Se eu tivesse me atentado a esse detalhe, teria pagado um pouco mais em um modelo mais avançado. Outro ponto que para mim é negativo é que ele pesa um pouquino e sinto os maxilares travarem no inÃcio, mas depois de algum tempo me adapto e não sinto mais incômodo.Enfim, é uma boa opção de fone, mas se estiver disposto a pagar um pouco a mais é melhor comprar um modelo mais recente.
