The highlight of this product lineup is the company’s first truly noise cancelling headphone that also supports digital noise cancelling technology. With smartphone makers ditching the proprietary 3.5mm headphone jack, it has become clear that truly wireless headphones are the way forward for the industry as well as consumers. With WF-SP700N, Sony is offering the flexibility to experience without tangling with any cables, and yet get core features like noise cancellation and splash-proof design.
The headphone also supports an Ambient Sound mode where users can hear what’s happening in their ambient environment. The headphones also support Sony’s Extra Bass sound that offers deeper bass in coordination with noise cancelling technology. Sony WF-SP700N users can further tweak the EQ settings of their headphone using Headphones Connect app. The wireless headphone has a battery life of around three hours, which offers two additional charges to the headphone.
In addition to WF-SP700N, Sony is also introducing two standard wireless in-ear models in the form of WI-SP600N and WI-SP500. These headphones are sports headphones and WI-SP600N features same digital noise cancelling and splash-proof rating of the WF-SP700N and has a battery rated for approximately six hours. The WI-SP500, on the other hand, offers eight hours of battery life in one charge. Sony is also introducing WI-C300, WH-CH400 and WH-CH500 as part of the revamped lineup in India.
In a released statement, Sony says these headphones will be optimized for Google Assistant with an update. After the update, those using these headphones can ask questions and get things done.
