    I bought these at Singapore airport without reading many reviews. I tried a few and these were very comfortable and the price was lower than in Australia. I charged it for maybe 15 minutes at the gate and on the plane it was 80% charged. The noise-cancelling is amazing. I couldn't believe it and it surpassed my expectations. Great product. I also got the blue one :D

    Loved you're video on the 720. Super detailed. And i learned with you about the 40 hr burn. I wanted a one of these headphones for a while but too expensive. I'm so glad I waited, and this headphones came out. Sony does amazing things and this is one of them. To have a headphone do all this for this price it's amazing. My fave thing is the old school jack cable ( that's a classic) sometimes you can't charge your headphones anywhere or you need them to watch the movie on the plane, and with the wired cable it's best of both worlds. Im so happy with my Sony 720. Thank you for the great detailed video. Hope you enjoyed them too, and i got mines in blue too. 👍🤗

    This was a refreshingly-useful and comprehensive review; thank you. I'm really interested in adding a lightweight option to my other pairs of ANC headphones, though I can't find one weight for these across sites, but I'm assuming Sony's site can be trusted on specs. I'm very interested to hear how these are different from the XM4s, other than that these are less likely to last as long (tough to say whether Sony has that in mind after the CH710s failed in that department).

    Burn-in has been proven to be bogus. The trick is that as you get new headphones, it'll take a while before you get used to their sound signature. But they will measure the exact same no matter how long you run them.

    I bought these after my much loved XM4s bit the dust (they started making this dreadful high pitched whine using anc). I couldn’t afford the XM5s so I picked these up. Honestly I’m pretty impressed for the price point. They’re not XMs, for sure, but the audio quality is pretty good, the anc is good, the battery life is long. If you keep the price point in mind, and keep realistic expectations, I think these are awesome headphones.

Today I decided to stop shamefully sharing and find myself something comparable. I stumbled across this video...and ran to Best Buy immediately after watching lol I love these so much more than the XM5's (mainly because of the fit, price and physical buttons).

Ay ay ay you're in for a ride I'll just put it as nicely as I can : *you don't buy the XM4s for sound quality* ☠️ The WH-720N either ☠️ though I will say that it sound a trillion times better than the XM4 simply because you don't get that hedonistic amount of bass the XM line is infamous for on the WH-720s Also if you're into relax listening, these are perfect, warm tonality and relatively tame treble makes it great for classical or lo-fi If you want sound quality, uh damn ☠️ 20$ Chinese earplugs literally sound way way better than any Bluetooth headphone on the planet And I'm not joking, look up Tangzu Wan'er.

    It would be helpful to comment on audio quality of the WH-CH720N model as it compares to Sony's higher end models, WH-1000XM4 and WH-1000XM5.

    Usually Sony has a habit of making lower-end models sound much better than their flagships for some reason I got the 720s and the XM5s, and let me tell you one thing, the 720s sound like a goddamn electrostatic headphone after hearing the XM5 You'll notice that there's not as much bass and treble is darker albeit smoother sounding Also benefits quite substantially from a DAC-AMP, surprising ! But does it sound better than some cheap chi-fi earplug like the Wan'er ? Of course not But do normal people care ? Also nope Unless Sony goes Harman, most people on earth will never heard what music is actually supposed to sound like 😢

    Funny that you mention the audio supposedly being better through the wire. I'd assume it would be too, with any pair of headphones. But with my 700Ns the audio quality sounds worse wired. Not necessarily the bitrate, but the frequency spectrum sounds different. Highs are muffled, and the mids and lows are muddy.

  • @Man_Ray78

    I just got the blue ones that I ordered 3 weeks ago from China, and I am learning it all. It's a large Win for Sony, if I compare them with the others I owned before ( WH-520s or something ) that were in this low-mid category . I found them 2 years ago on the top of the paper-trash container, outside my Apartment building but lost them 2 months ago in the bus. These 720's are very lightweight and feel like are the ones I'm always going to take with me on my way out. It has this Chip and all the comfort, but a Big nono for me is that I can't use the 360 reality Audio with Spotify, that is the platform most of us use for music. The preview of how 360 reality audio feels, left a bad taste in my mouth that Sony would do that so we all go to TIDAL or somewhere. I still got my 1000XM1 that are broken. I need to fix them, like I was going to do when they broke, 3 years ago, and then I'll compare them to these 720's. It will be interesting to see if they'll stand the test of time because they still worked perfectly when I sat on them and broke it. Will the App and updates translate or does Sony the same as Samsung, Apple and others, make it impossible for us to use it and stop updating them? Thanks for this review, useful for me now. Look, Influencers are doing their jobs, like you but I have not heard about this 40 hour breaking in with headphones. But when you told us you had gone with Sony to Amsterdam, then it made sense that you did not critique these 72's one time in this video. So this is just a long form Sponsored AD, disguised as an Review?! You said nothing about that this is an AD. That is just great. Who can you trust of all of them that get this stuff for free and are afraid to say the bad things so they don't get to travel the world and free stuff.
