Description
Enjoy your music, podcasts and calls wherever you go with the Sony WH-CH520 Wireless Headphones in Black.
Designed for comfortable everyday listening, these lightweight on-ear headphones combine Sony sound technology with up to 50 hours of battery life, Bluetooth connectivity and a built-in microphone for hands-free calls.
Sony's DSEE (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) helps restore detail lost when music is compressed, while the Sony | Sound Connect app lets you adjust the EQ and personalise the sound to suit your listening preferences.
Up to 50 Hours of Battery Life
With up to 50 hours of music playback from a full charge, the WH-CH520 are designed to keep going through days of everyday listening.
That makes them a particularly practical option for commuting, travelling, studying or simply listening around the house without constantly reaching for a charger.
Quick Charging
Forgot to charge your headphones?
A 3-minute quick charge provides up to 1.5 hours of playback, giving you enough power to get listening again when you're short on time.
Charging is via USB Type-C.
Sony DSEE Sound Enhancement
Streaming and compressed digital music can lose some of the detail found in the original recording.
Sony's DSEE technology helps restore elements lost during compression for a fuller, more natural listening experience.
The WH-CH520 use 30mm drivers and support SBC and AAC Bluetooth audio formats.
Personalise Your Sound
Using the Sony | Sound Connect app, you can customise the headphones' EQ settings to better suit your music and listening preferences.
Choose from presets or adjust the sound yourself, including Sony's Clear Bass control for greater control over lower frequencies.
Connect to Two Devices
The WH-CH520 support Multipoint Connection, allowing them to connect to two compatible Bluetooth devices simultaneously.
For example, you could be listening to audio from your laptop while remaining connected to your phone for an incoming call.
That's particularly useful if you're switching between work, entertainment and phone calls throughout the day.
Clear Hands-Free Calls
A built-in microphone lets you make and receive hands-free calls directly through the headphones.
It also makes the WH-CH520 useful for online meetings, classes and video calls as well as everyday music listening.
Lightweight Everyday Comfort
At approximately 147g, the WH-CH520 are impressively lightweight.
Sony combines the adjustable headband with soft ear pads and swivel earcups to create headphones designed for comfortable everyday use. The swivel design also makes them easier to slip into a bag when you're finished listening.
Bluetooth 5.2
Bluetooth 5.2 provides convenient wireless connectivity with compatible smartphones, tablets, laptops and other Bluetooth devices.
Sony specifies an effective Bluetooth range of approximately 10 metres, depending on the surrounding environment.

The WH-CH520 support Google Fast Pair for compatible Android devices and Swift Pair for compatible Windows computers, helping make initial setup quick and straightforward.
