Sony Bluetooth Earphones, Wireless

I think I reviewed these a while back after my first pair but I have bought SO many of these as presents and for myself since, I thought I ought to say why...1. They have excellent noise cancellation, decent sound ( not incredible but decent) , decent battery life, decent sleep time , quick charge time and come with a neat little usb cable and a bag of earbud covers to suit all ear sizes.2. The quality of these are higher than the price . There often seem to be offers on then & I don’t think I have ever spent more than a tenner on these earbuds . Not much else as good as I have described above costs a tenner these days! I have only ever to return one and I think that was carrier damage ( It was a while ago)3. I am married to a loud , incurable snorer. This allows me to sleep saving me from certain madness and possible mariticide.4. I have given them as gifts for friends who are also have partners who are loud , incurable snorers ( and a daughter who sleep deprivation was down to cute , unbelievably loud , nocturnal chinchillas!) allowing them to sleep and turning me into Mrs Wonderful.5. You don’t need a degree in computing to use them .6. They are unobtrusive - I admit I am vain and don’t want to look like a Cyberman / like I am connected to NASA. The magnets are good & mean I can safely wear them around my neck and tucked in my top when not in use. I have quite small ears & (hopefully) you can see from my picture that they are not obtrusive when worn .7) The well sized length wire/cable that connect to two earbuds is flat - so no tangles . I simply don’t understand why all earbuds, wired or bluetooth don’t all have this - and is the reason my wired headphones that came with my phone are untouched in the bottom of my bag in their constant , tangled, knotted mess!I could say more but I would have to buy a badge that says geek or similar .Lastly - I have Not been promised or received any review incentives or promise of freebies and don’t own shares in company :-)!

Wow I was sold on the good reviews! Thought they were gonna be amazing! Wondering now if people got a free product for the review because unfortunately I don't see the hype. I've had apple earphones (wired) for about 4 years now (cost me £10), they've never broke on me and they have a little bit more bass than £1 earphones. I've been looking for bluetooth earphones for a while now as I can't afford £150 apple earphones. I can barely afford my car's tax at £200 a year alone. Anyway, tried these earphones and they sound like £1 earphones. There's no bass at all, literally. They are so tinny! No sound isolation as I can still hear my neighbours banging against the walls, unless it means others can't hear your music, I have no idea. The Bluetooth is about a 0.3 seconds slower than voice so there's a slight noticeable delay that was bugging me but it's not as bad as some bluetooth headphones I've seen. But the biggest drawback for me was connection. I have a Huawei P9 running Android 7.0 and for ages it couldn't find the device and finally when it did find it, the headphones kept 'freezing' like the voice would go all choppy as if my phone was lagging (but the video ran fine). Others have commented about the earphones breaking under 6 months so not sure about build quality.

I bought 2 pairs of these for my wife and I to take on holiday. I also use them daily while dog walking & to listen to audiobooks/podcasts. My wife runs in them but they aren’t well suited to it. For £10 they do the job, but don’t expect anything special! One pair stopped working after two months....Pros:Good battery lifeComfortableCheapNo constant flashing light unlike most Bluetooth headphones.Talks to you to say when on/off and connected to a device.Cons (where to start!)If you turn the volume down too far it shouts at you “minimum volume!!!” Not good if trying to quietly listen to an audiobook at night.The quietest volume is still far too loud.The controls make NO SENSE! Up = rewind down = fast forward. You hold down to change volume, its all counterintuitive.There is a noticeable white noise sound when in use.Rubbish sound quality for music, but ok for podcasts, radio, audible etc.Potentially short lifespan; one pair lasted 2 months but the other is still ok.The blue ones look really cheap, go for black.The battery/control unit is very heavy so not good for running.I wouldn’t buy again and would ‘splash out’ on a £20 pair if I were you!
