Review on Sony WH-XB700 wireless headphones, blue by Bima ᠌

The headphones are not bad, I really like the sound in them, but they have a wagon and a small cart, consider this when buying. Has pros: Sound via Bluetooth - for me it is beautiful, but it is very hard accentuated on the bass, which lovers of a perfectly even frequency response will not appreciate at all and immediately write these headphones in the trash, throwing them out with two fingers, as if showing all their contempt for them. But this bass is exactly the bass that I like (and I'm not a basshead, I can't stand everything that even remotely sounds like beats, krakens and Chinese farts with bass), it's powerful, drafty, pleasant. Covers the stage, yes, but nothing criminal. The design is spartan, cheap and rough. But he is still very stylish, for which he is a huge plus, he is not defiant like the marshalls, for example, who with his whole appearance shows that the owner loves the brand, that the owner is fashionable, stylish and youthful. He doesn’t say anything, in general, he is stylish and minimalistic (it’s a pity that in PS5, Sony went completely in the opposite direction). Type-C - for some reason, headphone manufacturers sincerely do not understand that micro-usb is already the Paleozoic era, and in the releases of 2022 and 2022 it is he who prevails. Sony is a fat plus for this, all new headphones are on Type-C and it's great. The microphone accurately transmits the voice, albeit not always and only in a quiet room. They are very tenacious in terms of work, if you do not twist 100% volume. 30 hours exactly keep in normal mode. Its cons: Sound on the wire - it's terrible, it's disgusting, it's insignificant. If in older full-size models this is solved by the fact that the internal DAC or that the Chinese soldered on the board under Japanese supervision can be turned on even in wired mode, then there is no such possibility and will not be. This is a fat minus, I can’t perceive sound at all over the wire, the complete opposite of what I hear via Bluetooth. It is slightly corrected by the equalizer, but only superficially, from the level "I can't listen to this" to "well, you can look at them on YouTube". Accordingly, they cannot be used with the console either because of the above. And the second main disadvantage is the mode of operation when the microphone is turned on (ie, in headset mode). I'll try to explain. When the headphones work like headphones, everything is fine, but when the microphone is turned on, the headphones switch to a completely different mode of operation, and the sound becomes even worse than when connected with a wire, and the microphone perfectly catches what is happening inside the speakers, which is why you hear everything around you and yourself too. This is a disgusting mode of operation, it turns on every time you use the microphone, regardless of whether it is a call to a smartphone or a conversation on Skype. This is a fat minus, how to use their headset is a torment for me. Further subjectivity, all the worst is described above. Landing - it is comfortable, does not put pressure on the ears like 90% of overheads, but another drawback comes from this - they simply strive to fly off when walking fast, I generally keep quiet about running. Accordingly, athletes can immediately skip this model. Their ears sweat when it's hot. Wearing around the neck is not very comfortable, even opening the bow to the maximum. Complete set - cable for wired connection and charging cable as cheap as possible. Bluetooth 4.2 - this affects the range and stability, the signal is very well cut off by any obstacle, and the range is also not so hot in open space.
