easy to use and set up even for a novice like me sound is great but dont work when you try to answer phone with them which could be me and not finding the setting on my phone .

The ambient sound is the selling point with me. I can hear cars coming, people talking, and my music, or media too. You stay in touch with your surroundings when you need to and you can zone out when its safe. The sound is Sony good when the world around shuts down.

Ambient sound; no wires; decent fit; easy to use

Have tested these for 2 weeks now and like them sharply got them when I bought the new Sony xperia xz2 handset. What distinguishes these in-ears with others is that they have very much bass that I also like, so if you like a lot of bass buy these!

The Sony Sport WF-SP700N earphones are actually very good earbuds, well designed, comfortable and with respectable sound. Just don’t expect to get anything much out of the active noise cancellation.

Very solid Bluetooth connection; good sound; control app; good fit

Battery life lags compared to competition; First-gen connectivity dropouts

Though the noise-cancelling capabilities are impressive, the omission of aptX support but inclusion of AAC support is curious.

Digital noise-cancelling; IPX4; AAC support; Great fit; Customization through app

Mic quality; Battery life; Audio-visual lag (unless using iPhone; No aptX; Difficult to fit earbuds into case

It was just a matter of time before Sony , given its history in the audio segment, jumped on the wireless earbuds bandwagon popularised by the Apple AirPods and Samsung Gear Icon X.

Let's go back to the topic and ask should you spend the money I would say it is subjective. If you want a earbuds that can produce sound when you are working out and SQ is not a concern, go for those on AliExpress. Else, if you appreciate good music during workout, you could give it a try.

Low Latency is not supported

Active noise canceling has been a bit of a revelation in headphone technology and 2018 feels like the year it went mainstream. Look at how many people you see on your daily commute wearing Bose Quiet Comforts or Sony WH-1000XM2's and M3s, for example.

Noise canceling is great; Rock solid fit for sports; IPX4 splash-proof; Easy to connect via the app

Battery life; Connectivity issues (in bulky clothing

I bought these for my husband as a gift after looking at lots of brands and reviews. These were reviewed as having the best sound quality while still being very comfortable. Happy to say my husband agrees - he says they fit well, charge easily and the sound quality is great.
