    Poor quality, not suitable for use.

    In general, I returned these headphones. They left the most vivid impressions about themselves The price doesn't match the quality.

    Pros
    • Good design, not the worst sound
    Cons
    • Used on Samsung Galaxy S8+ 1. They don’t sit well in the ears, I tried all the options and still strive to jump out when running. As a result, I got used to it and seemed to hold on, with grief in half. 2. I have been using SONY MDR-EX750BT headphones for a very long time, they surpass this model in terms of sound quality and duration of work. 3. The duration of work from one charge is negligible. You listen to music for an hour, and it takes more than an hour to charge. And one ear is charged, and the other is waiting for the end of the world 4. Management . You need to tap your fingernail on the earpiece, and not your fingertip. Insert an earpiece into your ear and tap it with your fingernail, the feeling is not pleasant 5. The sound quality seems to be normal, but . Periodically, a "wave of silence" passed. That is, for a fraction of a second, the sound in the right ear disappears and then in the left. I tried to connect to the iPhone, the story is the same. I contacted the support service, they assured me that the problem was solved in the new firmware. I reshuffled and as a result the sound began to disappear simultaneously in two ears. 6. Elastic bands in the auricle constantly strive to slide off the seat

    Could not be worse! Waste of money.

    Huge disappointment. This has never happened before with a solid brand. Thank you, it's easy to get back. Only twice I paid 50 for a package and spent two evenings on sorting out problems. I will wait for the money.

    Pros
    • It is difficult to evaluate since the headphones did not work. These were already the second, bought in two days.
    Cons
    • The first headphones did not charge both. Flashing red and all. Did not turn on, did not connect via bluetooth. What I just did not do according to the instructions! And I ated the software and tried to reset the settings . Returned and ordered a second one the next day. Well, you never know, there is a marriage. With the second there was a clear progress - one earpiece (right) was charged and blinking green! And it's all! The left one continued to blink and again the player did not work and the bluetooth did not connect. ated software and reboot did not help. So I can't rate the sound. Returned these too.

    The quality was generally satisfied, there were minor shortcomings.

    These headphones have a peculiarity, when you swim, for example, crawl and turn your head to the side to inhale, the volume “beeps” in the headphones as if they were tapped with a finger. The same thing happens when you swim breaststroke and your head enters the water. In general, these "beeps" from false "taps" at first infuriated, but after a while I got used to them. I dry the headphones before charging when I come home, but after about 6 months (when using about 1 time per week), corrosion

    Pros
    • These are the first headphones that stay in my ears while swimming; before that I tried other walkmans from Sony, but they did not withstand more or less fast crawl or turns at the sides - these headphones stay in my ears normally and it's great, because without music it's terribly boring to swim. In general, the headphones are OK, but it's a pity that they only lasted for six months, especially at this price.
    Cons
    • I bought these headphones almost as soon as we got them - in December 2022 for ~ 20_000 (now they are sold at about half the price) at the Sony Center. I swim about once a week in the pool, I took them with me to the sea. After I get out of the pool, I wait for the string to dry, put them in the charger, they charge and I put them in a swim bag until the next weekend. But for the last few weeks I’ve been breaking off - I put them in the pool in my ears and they either don’t turn on at all, or turn on and immediately say that the battery is dead and turn off. Those. charged headphones that are in a charged case for some reason began to lose charge in a week. This is hardly normal. And this is very sad, because a little more than 6 months have passed since the date of purchase.

    The quality is so-so, the price does not match the quality.

    The cost is prohibitively exorbitant (considering the existence of such drawbacks), and until Sony addresses these issues, you should not even consider buying the product. Yes, I quickly affix a check in order to ensure that this does not impede the progress of my review. Video critique can be found here:?v=E8XTh44Qg4g&t=74s Pros: - Excellent sound quality - Excellent sound isolation (but it does not eliminate all ambient noise completely) - Waterproof - The capability of storing and playing…

    I did not find the advantages of the product, I do not recommend it.

    Video review: ? v=E8XTh44Qg4g&t=74s The price is too high (in the presence of such shortcomings), if Sony fixes them, then you can only think about purchasing them. Got pros: - Great sound - Good soundproofing - Completely waterproof - The presence of internal memory for storing and listening to music 4 GB - Convenient case - Ability to charge headphones from the case Different cons: - Maximum operating time from Bluetooth - 3 hours - Maximum operating time from internal memory - 4 hours…

    Performs its functions, nothing unusual.

    Survived after an hour of washing at 40° with powder and conditioner. Before washing, they were in a discharged state and after a day they were dried on batteries, after which they were perfectly charged, until there were no problems with them. (Now I don’t understand at all how people drown them. This campaign needs to be drowned in working order) Bathed in them in the shower. Swimming in the pool. When immersed, even for a couple of cm, the sound is interrupted (option to switch to the…

    Pros
    • 1. Sound quality 2. Complete set 3. Appearance worthy 4. Waterproof
    Cons
    • 1. Quiet sound 2. The charge lasts ~ 1.5 hours when listening through the phone. 3. Three different applications (360° ear shot, music center (for uploading to ear memory), headphones (equalizer presets, .)

    There are pluses and minuses, think before you buy.

    For swimming, special ear pads are attached, sealed, without a hole so that water does not get into the earpiece. The sound quality with such sealed ear pads of course drops a little. But, let's say, you can quite listen to the talking head. At the same time, good sound insulation. Although, the sound volume also drops with them. Since they are controlled by tapping, it is not very convenient to tap when swimming. Such an earpiece sits very tightly in the ear, like a piston, and is even sealed…

    Pros
    • You can listen to music in the pool, and since there is an internal storage, you can listen separately from your smartphone. The price is much cheaper than a well-known competitor. The sound quality suited me quite well, although I don’t like to listen to cheap headphones. The bass is not bad. Easy to put on and fix, hold well, do not fall out like a well-known competitor.
    Cons
    • Broke down quickly. No rewind within a track.

    Not a bad purchase, worth the money.

    I love everything about SONY! Some pros: The most important thing is the built-in 4 GB of internal memory. Thanks to this, while jogging, you can not take your phone or player with you, since in fact these headphones are a player. Even with the strongest shaking of the head, they do not fall out of the ears! Some cons: It did not live up to my expectations with a plus sign that after reading the reviews before buying these headphones, I expected a much less loud sound at maximum volume. As it…

    The right product for me, there were no problems.

    ate to 1.06 firmware! A bunch of problems will go away. Elastic bands after the pool should be removed to dry regularly. It is better not to put wet ones in the case, and when we put the lid a little wet, at least do not close it. Then you can dry it once every couple of weeks. The bass became bad and the sound was deaf - we dry it. We select the rubber bands according to the depth of the fit on the player and the depth in the ear canal. We put it on several times, if the sound is not very…

    Pros
    • Headphones are great! Like - so that people read how to live with them. The third year pleases in the pool. The sound was made louder compared to the previous model. FLAC play, I upload 600-700 megabyte albums with excellent quality. Bluetooth works great with Apple Watch. In the water, of course, bluetooth will not work, but for land activities, please take a watch and headphones. Everything on hand switch, podcasts, rewind, music, audiobooks, etc. I have never fallen out without a lace. Insert into DRY EARS, then into the shower in front of the pool. Then they sit tight. They don't fit well in wet ears. Hammam and jacuzzi stand, I went 20 times. I would not go to the sauna.
    Cons
    • Need to read the instructions. Sometimes dry, sometimes even wipe with cotton swabs once a year. Do not put wet in the case. Applications are confusing, who have not encountered Sony features will suffer. This is not my first Sony pool player - I knew what to expect. You need to get confused with the size of the rubber bands, the depth of the location in the ear.

    There are disadvantages, but the product is usable.

    Relative water resistance - tk. in this case, waterproof ear pads are used, and this is an air channel closed by a small rubber membrane. The sound passes through it with the quality "sings and okay." This is a compromise, but the advantage there is in the direction of water resistance, not sound. However, when you're underwater with your music, it's a completely new experience, you can even forgive the lack of quality. The bass is weak, apparently cut off by the internal crossover, but…

    Pros
    • Design, relative water resistance, secure fit in the ears.
    Cons
    • Sound, RELATIVE water resistance, autonomy: play 2 hours, charge one and a half - a nightmare; BT range is no more than a Chinese headset for 700r, which also connects faster (maybe it depends on the smartphone); I paused in the headset and walked all day, the Sony headphones will still soon sit down, even with or without sound. I just stuck it in, went to the pool or the gym and put it on charge (if you have time to change clothes before that)). It is unpleasant to peck in your ear to change the volume.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

    Headphones are good, but the price is right. What I didn’t like was the pause control buttons and the rewind of the track, with bare hands it’s normal, easy to feel, but in winter it’s not convenient at all with gloves, and the touch pad is only responsible for the volume and you need to get used to it. You can only drop music through a cable, and the bundled one doesn’t stand out very long, it doesn’t stand out very much, but it pleases at least that USB-C. Pleased with a large number of ear…

    Pros
    • Sound, assembly, functionality, software.
    Cons
    • Large case, control with small buttons, you need to get used to the touch pad.

    Revainrating 4 out of 5

    Cool product, happy with the purchase, maybe I'll buy it again.

    Despite the shortcomings voiced, there are no special alternatives for swimming. This is due to both the high price tag and low sound quality. In my opinion, the most correct application is audio books, educational audio tracks and podcasts. Who swims for long distances, he will understand:) You should not take it not for the pool. Look at more affordable models.

    Pros
    • 1) Work underwater 2) Not afraid of salty (sea, ocean) and chlorinated water (pool) 3) The presence of its own 4GB of memory. Bluetooth does not work underwater.
    Cons
    • 1) Sufficiently low sound quality. Much worse than the same Sony WI-1000X. 2) Listen to music in general. When the head is immersed in the water (for example, the breaststroke) or the head is turned into the water (crawl), the volume of the sound changes slightly. Coupled with rather mediocre sound insulation, and there are plenty of extraneous sounds in the pool, it is a moot option for listening to music. Is it something in the pop genre and at high volume. 3) Bluetooth only supports SBC and AAC. There are no aptX and LDAC in headphones for 20 thousand at all. 4) I did not find the ability to rewind the track back and forth. The ideal interval would be 10 seconds.

    A complete disaster, definitely did not pass the quality check!!!

    I bought Sony WF-SP900 headphones, not a single device sees them, which I just didn’t do: I overloaded all devices, reset settings in all devices, overloaded the headphones themselves, charged them all the way, it’s useless, they seem to be gone. It turns out that you can only listen to them using the internal player, but you can’t watch a movie, for example, using them. I will be making a return tomorrow.

    Pros
    • Design
    Cons
    • Does not work

    The product is not good, I will not buy any more.

    after 10-15 minutes of swimming, the headphones in the pool stop working. I bought it for the pool, very disappointed. they work on land, but the sound is rather mediocre, worse than that of the Chinese 3-4 times cheaper
