Furitaanka Sony WF-C500 Dhab ahaantii Wireless Taleefoonnada gacanta^{(Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones)}

Sameecado - madaxeedka Sony WF-C500 wuxuu^{(Sony WF-C500)} ku yimid sanduuq yar oo cad, oo leh sawiro tayo sare leh iyo macluumaad badan. Sanduuqu waa kaliya 3.75 x 2.75 x 1.96 inji (95 x 70 x 50 mm) cabir ahaan iyo, sida la filayo, aad u khafiif ah. Dhinaca hore waxa ku yaal sawirka taleefoonnada gacanta ee Coral Orange , magaca moodeelka iyo dhawr arrimood oo farsamo.

Dhinaca hore ee sanduuqa uu soo galo Sony WF-^{(Sony WF-C500)} C500

Gadaasha sanduuqa waxa ku jira tafaasiil farsamo oo kale, iyo sidoo kale lambarka taxan ee alaabta. Sida laga soo xigtay Sony , baakadu kuma jiraan wax caag ah.

Gadaasha sanduuqu waxa uu leeyahay dhawr nooc oo farsamo ah iyo lambarka taxan

Sanduuqa waxa ku jira taleefoonnada dhegaha la gashado, kiis dallacaad ah, laba qaybood oo tabaha birta ah, fiilada USB-A ilaa USB-C , iyo tilmaamaha hawlgalka ee caadiga ah ee dhawr luqadood ah.

Waxa ku jira waa heer: kiis dallaca, talooyinka dhegta, fiilada

Furitaanka kiiska dallacaadda, waxaan ku eegi karnaa jaleecada hore ee taleefoonnada gacanta ee dhabta ah. Daboolka dhexdhexaadka ah ee kiisku waa sahlan tahay in la furo, kiiskuna aad buu u fudud yahay.

Fududeynta^(Simplicity) badanaa macneheedu waa adkeyd, oo WF-C500 sax labada sanduuq

Waayo-aragnimadii feerka-fududku waxay ahayd mid lagu farxo. Sanduuqa ku jira si fiican ayaa loo sameeyay oo si fudud loo furi karaa. Waxaan jecelnahay in aysan jirin wax bac ah oo ku jira baakadaha, sanduuqa gudahana si sahal ah dib loo warshadayn karo. Tayada qalabyada ayaa wanaagsan, waxayna si fiican u soo baakadeeyeen si gooni gooni ah kiiska.^{(The unboxing experience was pleasant. The included box is well-made and easy to open. We like that there is no plastic in the packaging, and the inner box is easily recyclable. The quality of the accessories is good, and they come well packaged separately from the case.)}

Naqshadeynta iyo qeexida qalabka

Ka dib furitaanka sanduuqa, waxaan marka hore eegno qalabka. Xadhkaha USB aad buu u gaaban yahay (kaliya 8.5 inji ama 21.5 cm), laakiin waa in ku filan kiisaska isticmaalka badankooda. Talooyinka dhegta ayaa ah cabbirrada S iyo L, kuwa cabbirkoodu yahayna M horeba loogu rakibay taleefoonnada gacanta.

Kiiska dallacadu wuxuu bixiyaa lacag ku filan 10 saacadood oo dib-u-ciyaarid ah

Kiiska dallacadu waa mid adag oo fudud, oo miisaankiisu yahay 1.23 oz (35 g). Cabbirkeedu waa 3.15 x 1.37 x 1.21 inji (80.0 x 34.9 x 30.9 mm). Daboolku waa simi-transparent iyo meelaha mugdiga ah, marka burooyinku ay dallacaan, qaar ka mid ah iftiinka amber-ka ee ay sii daayaan ayaa laga arki karaa daboolka. Waxa kale oo ay leedahay xaalad LED ah oo iftiimisa marka kiisku ku dallaco. Sida laga soo xigtay Sony , waxay haysataa casiir ku filan oo si buuxda loogu dallaci karo taleefannada gacanta hal mar. Isagoo ka hadlaya, nolosha batteriga ee burooyinku runtii waa wanaagsan tahay: 10 saacadood oo dib-u-eegis joogto ah iyo 10 kale oo ay bixiso kiisku. Nolosha batteriga waa la gooyaa kala badh haddii aad telefoonnada gacanta u isticmaashid. Waqtiga dallacaadda kiisku waa qiyaastii 3 saacadood, halka burooyinku ay ku dallaci doonaan 100% saacadaha 2.5, sida laga soo xigtay Sony .Intaa waxaa dheer^{(Furthermore)} , toban daqiiqo oo waqti dallacaad ah ayaa ku heli doonta saacad dib u ciyaar, taas oo fiican haddii aad degdegsan tahay oo aad ilowdo inaad dallacaadda dhegaha ka hor.

Sony WF - C500^{(Sony WF-C500)} waa kuwo yaryar oo iftiin leh

Taleefannada dheguhu waa kuwa yaryar, iftiin (5.4 g midkiiba) waxayna leeyihiin 5.8mm unugyada darawallada oo leh jawaab celin joogto ah oo ah 20Hz-20,000Hz (muunadeynta 44.1kHz). Waxaan dib u eegnay nooca Coral Orange , laakiin taleefoonnada gacanta ayaa sidoo kale lagu heli karaa cagaar, madow iyo caddaan.

Qalabka dhegaha-dhegaha ee Sony WF-C500^{(Sony WF-C500)} waxa kale oo laga heli karaa madow, caddaan, iyo cagaar lime

Naga soo wac qaab duug ah, laakiin waxaan jecelnahay xaqiiqda ah in Sony WF-C500 uu leeyahay kontaroolo jireed. Badhamada ilaa xad way fududahay in la riixo oo waxay bixiyaan jawaab celin ku filan. Shahaadada IPX4 waxay ka dhigan tahay in burooyinku ay ka badbaadsan yihiin qulqulka biyaha ee marmar. Xiriirinta waxaa lagu sameeyay iyadoo la adeegsanayo Bluetooth 5.0 .

Waxaad ka heli kartaa dhammaan tafatirka farsamada boggan: WF-C500 Dhab ahaantii Wireless headphones^{(WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones)} .

Guud ahaan, alaabta la isticmaalo ma aha kuwo raqiis ah, iyo daboolka semitransparent ee kiis dallacadu waa doorasho wanaagsan oo naqshadeyn ah fikraddayada. Burooyinku iyo kiisku ma dareemaan qiimo sare, laakiin waa kuwo adag oo ku habboon isticmaalka maalinlaha ah. Ma jirin arrimo muuqda oo ku saabsan tayada alaabta, iyo farsamooyinka farsamada ayaa ku habboon qiimaha.^{(Overall, the materials used are not cheap, and the semitransparent lid of the charging case is a nice design choice in our opinion. The buds and the case don’t feel premium, but rather sturdy and fit for daily use. There were no visible issues with the quality of the materials, and the technical specs are in line with the price.)}

Isticmaalka Sony WF-C500 Dhab ahaantii Wireless-ka Sameecaadaha^{(Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones)}

Hadda, ka sii gudub walxaha xiisaha leh. Waxa ugu horreeya ee indhahayaga soo jiitay waxay ahayd xaqiiqda ah in taleefoonnada gacanta ay leeyihiin kontaroolo jireed. Waa maxay sababta, da'da badhamada awooda iyo shaashadaha taabashada, ma u baahan doontaa badhamada dhabta ah ee dhegahaaga? Waxaa jira laba sababood oo taas:

• marka la barbar dhigo dhegaha-dhegaha-xasaasiga ah, suurtogalnimada soo saarista amar si lama filaan ah aad ayey uga yar tahay;
• Dareen-celinta haptic-ga ee ka timid marka la riixo badhanka inta badan burooyinkeeda xasaasiga ah waa eber. Waxa kaliya oo aad helaysaa dhawaaqyo, taas oo ka cadhaysiin karta isticmaalayaasha qaarkood. Iyadoo Sony WF-C500 , waxaad dareemi kartaa markaad si guul leh u riixdo badhanka, markaa isticmaalka waa la hagaajiyay.

Badhamada jireed waxaa lagu lamaanaa heer sare, haddii aasaasiga ah, nidaamka xakamaynta: laga bilaabo badhamada waxa kaliya oo aad ka heli kartaa xakamaynta mugga, ciyaarta / hakinta faylasha warbaahinta, ka jawaabista iyo joojinta wicitaanada, laakiin marka ay timaado amarrada, fudud ayaa mararka qaarkood ka fiican. Tusaale ahaan, si aad mugga u kordhiso, waxa kaliya oo aad u baahan tahay in aad riixdo badhanka bidixda hal mar, si aad u yaraysona waxa aad si fudud u haynaysaa isla badhanka ilaa uu mugga hoos u dhaco heerka la rabo.

Koontarooladu waa sahlan yihiin, laakiin sidoo kale waa sahlan yihiin

Lahaanshaha nidaamyo amar adag oo ku lug leh laba-laab ama xitaa saddex-geesood oo ku yaal badhamada xasaasiga ah, habkani aad buu u waxtar badan yahay oo sax ah.

Burooyinku waa yar yihiin oo ku filan inay ku habboon yihiin dhegaha intooda badan, iyo talooyinka bud-dhigga ku jira waxay daboolayaan cabbirro ballaaran oo kanaalka dhegta ah. Innagoo xidhan ayaannu isku daynay inaan orodno, mana ay dhicin. Wax fiican, maadaama ay aad u yar yihiin. Tilmaamaha Pro: haddii aad doorato kuwa cad ama liinta, waxaad si fudud u ogaan doontaa haddii ay dhacaan 🙂

Badhamada jirku waa weyn yihiin waxayna bixiyaan jawaab celin wanaagsan

Waxaan marka hore tijaabinay burooyinkeeda annagoo dhageysanay muusikada. Tayada dhawaaqa bilawga ah ma ahayn mid la yaab leh, mugga iyo basku waxay ahaayeen kuwo ku filan, laakiin dhexda iyo kuwa sare waxay ahaayeen, la'aanta erey ka fiican, qallafsan. Burooyinku waxay u dhawaaqeen celcelis ahaan, laakiin ma jirin arrin dhab ah oo tayada leh. Ka dib waxaanu soo dejinay Isku- xidhka Sameecaadaha^{(Headphones Connect)} , app-ka Sony oo u heellan dhammaan taleefoonnada gacanta ee wireless-ka ah, ee loo heli karo Android^{(for Android)} iyo iPhones^{(for iPhones)} labadaba . App-ka waxaa ka buuxa astaamo wuxuuna leeyahay is-dhexgal isticmaale oo nadiif ah. Xitaa waxay la mid tahay midabka dhegaha-dhegaha ee ay ku xidho, sababtoo ah waa maxay sababta?

App-ka, waxa aanu awoodnay in aanu si fiican u hagaajino codka dhadhankayaga,maadaama abka uu bixiyo horudhacyo badan iyo jaangooyooyin isbarbardhiga caadada ah. Waxa kale oo ay leedahay qayb u go'an in ay bixiso codka ugu fiican, oo ku salaysan ... sawirada dhegahaaga. Haa, si sax ah ayaad u akhriday. Marka laga reebo xaqiiqda ah in ay ku shaqeyso dhowr apps (sida Tidal , tusaale ahaan), kuma qanacsanin in sawirada dhegahayaga ay gacan ka geysan doonto helitaanka dhawaaq wanaagsan. Waxay la mid tahay siinta sawirada gaarigaaga shirkadda hagaajinta si ay u kordhiso waxqabadkeeda iyadoo ku saleysan sawiradaas oo keliya. Waxaan aaminsanahay in habka tartanka, oo dhab ahaantii ku tijaabinaya maqalka isticmaalaha dhowr jeer, uu faa'iido badan yahay oo uu keeno natiijooyin wanaagsan. Taas oo la yiraahdo, apps-yada la xushay ee la shaqeeya sifadan ayaa aad u wanaagsan.

App - ka ku xidhidhiyaha taleefoonnada^{(Headphones Connect)} gacanta waa mid qurux badan oo faa'iido leh

Ka dib markii la hagaajiyay codka iyadoo la adeegsanayo app-ka, taleefoonnada gacanta ayaa si fiican u dhawaaqay, laakiin weli ma helin caddaynta qalabka dhammaadka sare. Waxaan hawlgelinay DSEE ( Digital Sound Enhancement Engine ), algorithm ay soo saartay Sony si kor loogu qaado tayada codka muusiga, saameyntuna waxay ahayd mid qarsoodi ah laakiin si cad ayaa loo joogaa. Natiijada kama dambaysta ah waxay la socotaa tartanka: bass wanaagsan, heer sare oo cad, qalab ku filan oo kala duwan, guud ahaan dhawaaq dheellitiran oo faahfaahsan.

Ka dib waxaan ku tijaabinay xaaladooda labaad ee aadka loo isticmaalo: telefoonada. Nasiib darrose, in kasta oo tayada dhawaaqu ay wanaagsan tahay, qofka dhinaca kale ee wicitaanku wuxuu si joogto ah dhib ugu qabay inuu na maqlo. Waxaan isku daynay dhowr taleefan, laakiin natiijadu waxay ahayd isku mid. Sii socoshada, runtii ma eedeyn kartid Sony WF-C500 Dhab ahaan Taleefanka Wireless^{(Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones)} -ka ah ee la'aanta ANC(joojinta qaylada firfircoon), maadaama ay tahay madaxa madaxa miisaaniyada. Intaa waxa dheer, xakamaynta sanqadha ka imanaysa inay dhegahaaga ku jiraan ayaa ku filan. Sidoo kale ma jiro qaab dhawaaqa ambient (waa marka dhegaha-dhegaha ay ciyaaraan dhawaaqyada ku hareeraysan si aad u maqashid waxa agagaarkaaga ka dhacaya xitaa iyada oo taleefoonnada dhegaha la gashado). Haddii aad door bidayso, in kastoo, waxaad isticmaali kartaa mid ka mid ah dhegaha-dhegaha, doorasho wanaagsan haddii aad baabuur wadid, tusaale ahaan, oo aad weli u baahan tahay inaad u isticmaasho burooyinkeeda sidii madax-madaxeedka taleefanka.

Waxaan u dhaqaaqnay inaan ku xirno Laptop-ka, si aan u aragno in arrimihii ay weli jiraan. Mar labaad^(Again) , inta lagu jiro wicitaanada fiidyaha, qofka dhinaca kale wuxuu ka caban lahaa tayada codka. Dhegayso duubis lagu sameeyay Windows 11 addoo^{(Windows 11)} isticmaalaya abka cod duubaha^{(Voice Recorder)} ee isku dhafan :

Si la yaab leh, marka la isku xidho isticmaalka a Bluetooth 4.0 dongle, xataa ma aan isticmaali karin makarafoonka ee Sony WF-C500 , laakiin waxa ay shaqeysay markii ku xiran via Bluetooth 5.0 . Intaa waxaa dheer, waxaan ogaanay cillad aan kala go' lahayn: mararka qaarkood, markii taleefoonnada gacanta lagu xiro kombuyuutarkeena ASUS Zenbook Duo , mouse-ka Bluetooth -ka (oo sidoo kale uu sameeyay Asus ) ayaa joojiyay shaqadiisa saxda ah. Masaafadaadu way kala duwanaan kartaa, iyadoo ku xidhan aaladahaaga, laakiin waayo aragnimadayada marka la isticmaalayo Sony WF-C500 ee laptop-ka ma ahayn mid fiican.

Sony WF - C500 ayaa^{(Sony WF-C500)} ku xidhan Windows 11 laptop

Ugu dambeyntii, waxaan tijaabinay nolosha batteriga, iyo halkan, Sony WF-C500 Dhab ahaantii Wireless Headphones^{(Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones)} oo si buuxda loo bixiyay: ku ciyaarista codka ee mugga dhexdhexaadka ah, waxaan awoodnay inaan dhaafno wakhtiga batteriga ee uu cayimay Sony . Waxaan helnay kow iyo toban saacadood, taas oo, in kasta oo aysan ahayn natiijada ugu fiican halkaas, hubaal waa mid aad u wanaagsan. Haddii aan la isticmaalin oo aan kiiskooda la isticmaalin, taleefoonnada dhegaha ee Sony WF-C500 wuu^{(Sony WF-C500)} dami si uu u badbaadiyo batteriga. Si aad dib ugu shido, si fudud taabo badhanka dhegta dhegta kasta dhawr ilbiriqsi. Haddii la soo bandhigo doorashada, waxaan ka ganacsan lahayn miisaanka aadka u hooseeya ee kiiska awoodda batteriga kiis weyn, oo awood u leh inuu si buuxda u dallaco burooyinka wax ka badan hal mar. Weli, 20 saacadood ee wakhtiga dib-u-ciyaarista la isku daray maaha mid aad u xun. Dallacaadda^(Charging)degdeg ayuu ahaa - saddex saacadood gudahood, dhegaha dhegaha ayaa diyaar u ahaa inay tagaan.

Isticmaalka Sony WF-C500 Dhab ahaantii Wireless headphones waa waayo-aragnimo isku dhafan: taleefoonnada gacanta ayaa ku fiican isticmaalka maalinlaha ah ee casriga ah, laakiin kaliya dib-u-ciyaarista muusikada. Wicitaanada, codka ay qaadaan makarafoonada isku dhafan maaha mid weyn, iyo markaad ku xiran tahay kombiyuutarada, waxaad la kulmi kartaa arrimo ku saabsan xiriirka adigoo isticmaalaya qalabka kale ee Bluetooth. Nidaamka xakamaynta ayaa ah mid aad u wanaagsan, oo waxaad si fudud u dhageysan kartaa muusikada aad ugu jeceshahay dhegaha dhegaha maalin dhan iyadoo ay ugu wacan tahay nolosha batteriga wanaagsan.^{(Using the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones is a mixed experience: the headphones are perfect for daily use together with a smartphone, but only for music playback. For calls, the sound picked up by the integrated microphones is not great, and when connecting to computers, you can encounter connection issues while also using other Bluetooth devices. The control scheme is very good, and you can easily listen to your favorite music on these earbuds for a full day thanks to the good battery life.)}

Sony WF-C500: Who are they good for?

You should consider the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones if you:

• Listen to a lot of music on your mobile device(s)
• Dislike touch-sensitive earbuds
• Are away from a charger for long periods of time and don’t want to interrupt your listening to charge your headphones
• Enjoy jogging and need a pair of light, robust earbuds with decent sound quality

Pros and cons

There are several positives about the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones:

See price on:

Buy now

• They are sturdy and well-built
• They are comfortable
• The simple control scheme, coupled with the physical buttons, makes the device extremely easy to use
• The battery life for the earbuds is good
• Good-looking color selection

However, there are some things that aren’t to our liking:

• The microphones on the Sony WF-C500 have trouble picking up your voice in calls
• We had some connectivity issues on our test laptop when other Bluetooth devices were also connected
• The battery life of the charging case could have been better

Verdict

The Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones are, first and foremost, a budget product. Thus, we cannot fault them for the lack of more advanced features like ANC. However, the quality of the integrated microphones is inadequate, and that makes them less desirable for phone calls. They are great for listening to music, both because of the long battery life and the fact that they’re comfortable to wear. The sound quality is correct for the price. We would recommend the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones to budget-conscious users who spend a lot of time listening to music on their iPhone or Android devices and don’t need them for frequent phone calls.

Unboxing of the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones

The Sony WF-C500 headphones come in a small white box, with high quality graphics and lots of information on it. The box is just 3.75 x 2.75 x 1.96 inches (95 x 70 x 50 mm) in size and, as expected, very light. On the front there’s a picture of the Coral Orange headphones, the model name and several technical specs.

The front of the box that the Sony WF-C500 comes in

The back of the box contains other technical specs, as well as the product serial number. According to Sony, the packaging does not contain any plastic.

The back of the box has several technical specs and the serial number

The box contains the headphones, a charging case, two sets of bud tips, a USB-A to USB-C cable, plus the usual operating instructions in several languages.

The contents are standard: charging case, ear tips, cable

Opening the charging case, we can take a first glance at the actual headphones. The semi-transparent lid of the case is easy to open and the case is very light.

Simplicity usually means sturdiness, and the WF-C500 tick both boxes

The unboxing experience was pleasant. The included box is well-made and easy to open. We like that there is no plastic in the packaging, and the inner box is easily recyclable. The quality of the accessories is good, and they come well packaged separately from the case.

Design and hardware specifications

After opening the box, we first took a look at the accessories. The USB cable is very short (only 8.5 inches or 21.5 cm), but it should be enough for most use cases. The ear tips are the S and L sizes, with the M sized ones already mounted on the headphones.

The charging case provides enough charge for 10 hours of playback

The charging case is sturdy and light, with a weight of just 1.23 oz (35 g). Its dimensions are 3.15 x 1.37 x 1.21 inches (80.0 x 34.9 x 30.9 mm). The lid is semitransparent and in dark environments, when the buds are charging, some of the amber light they emit can be seen through the lid. It also has a status LED that lights up when the case is charging. According to Sony, it has enough juice to fully charge the headphones once. Speaking of which, the battery life of the buds is really good: 10 hours of continuous playback plus another 10 provided by the case. The battery life is cut in half if you use the headphones for calls. The charge time for the case is roughly 3 hours, while the buds will charge to 100% in 2.5 hours, according to Sony. Furthermore, ten minutes of charging time will get you an hour of playback, which is nice if you are in a hurry and you forget to charge the earbuds beforehand.

The Sony WF-C500 are small and light

The headphones are small, light (5.4 g each) and have 5.8mm driver units with a frequency response of 20Hz-20,000Hz (44.1kHz sampling). We reviewed the Coral Orange version, but the headphones are also available in lime green, black, and white.

The Sony WF-C500 earbuds are also available in black, white, and lime green

Call us old-fashioned, but we love the fact that the Sony WF-C500 has physical controls. The buttons are relatively easy to press and provide sufficient feedback. The IPX4 certification means that the buds are safe from the occasional splash of water. The connection is made using Bluetooth 5.0.

You can find all the technical specs on this page: WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones.

Overall, the materials used are not cheap, and the semitransparent lid of the charging case is a nice design choice in our opinion. The buds and the case don’t feel premium, but rather sturdy and fit for daily use. There were no visible issues with the quality of the materials, and the technical specs are in line with the price.

Using the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones

Now, onwards to the fun stuff. The first thing that caught our eye was the fact that the headphones have physical controls. Why, in the age of capacitive buttons and touch screens, would you want actual buttons on your earbuds? There are two reasons for that:

• compared to the touch-sensitive earbuds, the probability of issuing a command accidentally is much, much lower;
• The haptic feedback from actually pressing a button on most touch-sensitive buds is zero. You only get beeps, which can be annoying to some users. With the Sony WF-C500, you can feel when you successfully press the button, so the usability is improved.

The physical buttons are coupled with a superb, if basic, control scheme: from the buttons you only get to control volume, the playing/pausing of media files, answering and ending calls, but when it comes to commands, simpler is sometimes better. For example, to increase the volume, you only need to press the left button once, and for decreasing it you simply keep the same button pressed until the volume drops to the desired level.

The controls are simplistic, but also simple

Having experienced complicated command schemes involving double or even triple taps on touch-sensitive buttons, this method is much more effective and precise.

The buds are small enough to fit most ears, and the included bud tips cover a wide range of ear canal sizes. We tried running while wearing them, and they didn’t fall off. A good thing, since they’re so small. Pro tip: if you choose the white or the orange ones, you will spot them easily if they do fall off 🙂

The physical buttons are large and provide good feedback

We first tested the buds by listening to music. The initial sound quality wasn’t amazing, the volume and the bass were good enough, but the mids and highs were, for lack of a better word, bland. The buds sounded average, but there was no real issue with quality. We then downloaded Headphones Connect, the Sony app dedicated to their whole range of wireless headphones, available both for Android and for iPhones. The app is packed with features and has a clean user interface. It even matches the color of the earbuds it connects to, because why not?

With the app, we were able to fine-tune the sound to our taste, as the app provides several presets and custom equalizer settings. It also has a section dedicated to providing the best sound, based on… pictures of your ears. Yes, you read that right. Apart from the fact that it works with only a few apps (like Tidal, for example), we’re not convinced that taking photos of our ears will help in achieving better sound. It’s like providing photos of your car to a tuning company so that they increase its performance solely based on those pictures. We believe that the competition’s approach, actually testing the hearing of the user on several frequencies, is more useful and yields better results. That being said, the selected apps that work with this feature did sound quite good.

The Headphones Connect app is good-looking and useful

After tuning the sound using the app, the headphones sounded better, but still lacked the clarity of higher-end devices. We activated DSEE (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine), an algorithm developed by Sony to enhance the sound quality of the music, and the effect was subtle but clearly present. The end result was in line with the competition: good bass, clear highs, sufficiently-spaced instruments, overall a balanced and detailed sound.

We then tried them in their second most-used scenario: phone calls. Sadly, while the sound quality was good, the person on the other end of the call constantly had trouble hearing us. We tried it with several phones, but the result was the same. Moving on, you can’t really fault the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones for the lack of ANC (active noise cancellation), since it’s a budget headset. Furthermore, the noise suppression from having them in your ears is good enough. There is no ambient sound mode either (that’s when the earbuds play the surrounding sounds so that you can hear what’s happening around you even with the headphones on). If you prefer, though, you can use only one of the earbuds, a good choice if you’re driving, for example, and you still need to use the buds as a phone headset.

We moved on to connecting them to a laptop, to see if the issues were still present. Again, during video calls, the person on the other end would complain about the sound quality. Take a listen to a recording made in Windows 11 using the integrated Voice Recorder app:

Strangely, when connecting using a Bluetooth 4.0 dongle, we couldn’t even use the microphone on the Sony WF-C500, but it worked when connected via Bluetooth 5.0. Furthermore, we noticed an intermittent bug: at times, when the headphones were connected to our ASUS Zenbook Duo laptop, our Bluetooth mouse (also made by Asus) stopped working correctly. Your mileage may vary, depending on your devices, but our experience when using the Sony WF-C500 with a laptop wasn’t great.

Finally, we tested the battery life, and here, the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones delivered in full: playing audio at moderate volume, we were able to surpass the battery run time specified by Sony. We got eleven hours, which, although not the best result out there, is certainly very good. If they aren’t used and not in their case, the Sony WF-C500 headphones turn off to save battery. To turn them back on, simply press the button on each earbud for a few seconds. If presented with the choice, we would have traded the very low weight of the case for a larger case battery capacity, able to fully charge the buds more than once. Still, 20 hours of combined playback time is not too shabby. Charging was quick - within three hours, the earbuds were ready to go.

Using the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones is a mixed experience: the headphones are perfect for daily use together with a smartphone, but only for music playback. For calls, the sound picked up by the integrated microphones is not great, and when connecting to computers, you can encounter connection issues while also using other Bluetooth devices. The control scheme is very good, and you can easily listen to your favorite music on these earbuds for a full day thanks to the good battery life.

What's your opinion about the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones?

The search for wireless earbuds is long and tedious. You are bombarded with technical specs and feature lists, but more than other wearables, choosing the right earbuds depends a lot on your anatomy and personal preferences. We hope we were able to shed some light on what it’s like to use the Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones. Before you leave, we’d like to know your opinion on these budget wireless earbuds. If you own a pair, it would be great if you could also describe in the comment section your experience with them, so that other users can get a clearer picture.
