Sony Launches WH-CH730N Wireless Headphones With 50-Hour Battery Life
Sony has introduced the WH-CH730N mid-range over-ear headphones, featuring 50-hour battery life, active noise cancellation, and a foldable design priced around 360 to 410 NIS.
Sony has expanded its mid-range audio lineup with the release of the WH-CH730N over-ear wireless headphones. Positioned as an accessible alternative to flagship models approaching the 1,000-shekel mark, the new device targets budget-conscious consumers seeking reliable performance. Retailed between 360 and 410 NIS via official importer Isphar, the headphones combine lightweight portability with a robust feature set.
Design, Controls, and App Integration
Weighing 207 grams, the WH-CH730N features a foldable over-ear design available in a range of colors, including pink, blue, white, black, and beige. Physical controls include a power button, independent volume adjustments, a play/pause key, and a dedicated button for cycling through noise-canceling modes. Users can customize double and triple presses on the ANC button to launch services like Spotify, YouTube Music, or Endel. However, the package lacks a carrying case and a proximity sensor for automatic playback control. The companion Sony Sound Connect app provides extensive customization, including equalizer settings, activity-based noise cancellation modes, and usage tracking.
Audio Performance and Connectivity
Equipped with 30-millimeter drivers and Bluetooth 6.0 connectivity, the headphones support multipoint pairing for two devices simultaneously. While high-resolution LDAC is absent, the device supports standard SBC and AAC codecs alongside the power-efficient LC3 codec. Sony's proprietary DSEE technology enhances compressed audio files, delivering a warm and satisfying sound profile right out of the box, though distortion may occur at maximum volume levels. Active noise cancellation relies on two microphones per ear cup, effectively muting low-frequency background noise such as air conditioning units. Additionally, transparency mode allows users to converse without removing the headphones, while AI-powered beamforming microphones ensure clear call quality in noisy environments.
Battery Life and Value
The WH-CH730N delivers an impressive battery life, offering up to 50 hours of continuous music playback with active noise cancellation enabled. Despite minor limitations in top-tier noise isolation and high-volume audio clarity, the headphones provide exceptional value for everyday listeners seeking comfort, long endurance, and rich software features at an affordable price point.
