硬件规格

说到蓝牙配对(Bluetooth pairing)，索尼(Sony)创造了这款耳机，对我们这些想要在许多不同设备上使用相同耳机的人来说很友好。索尼 WH-CH500(Sony WH-CH500)支持NFC(NFC support) ，因此您可以将智能手机或平板电脑(smartphone or tablet)轻触耳机的NFC 标签(NFC tag)以使其连接。
耳机上还有一些媒体控制按钮：Power/Pairing/Play按钮和音量摇杆(volume rocker)，也可以用作Forward/Back按钮。
无线意味着耳机内部也有电池。索尼(Sony)为它配备了锂离子电池组，可以(battery pack)播放(playback time)20 小时，使用右侧耳机上的微型USB端口在大约 4 个半小时内充满电。
声音来自两个直径为 1.18 英寸（30 毫米）的紧凑型驱动单元。考虑到我们谈论的是入耳式耳机，驱动器非常大，应该提供比其他类似耳机更好的音质。(sound quality)

使用索尼 WH-CH500 无线(Sony WH-CH500 wireless)耳机
索尼 WH-CH500(Sony WH-CH500) 无线耳机(wireless headset)具有包耳式耳机，这意味着它们旨在在您佩戴时覆盖耳朵的外部。但是，我们会将它们归类为贴耳式耳机。然而，虽然它们不像“耳罩式”耳机那么舒适，但驱动单元上的毛绒柔软舒适。您可以将索尼 WH-CH500(Sony WH-CH500)耳机戴在头上一整天，您的耳朵仍然会很开心。🙂
另一方面，头带没有毛绒，上面的塑料直接放在你的头上。一段时间后可能会有点不舒服。如果你的头发不多，那么让你烦恼的那一刻可能迟早会到来。我们还注意到头带很硬，容易挤压你的头部，如果你的头比平均水平大，这不是一件好事。🙂
音频质量高于您从其他类似价格的耳机中获得的平均水平，但如果您是发烧友，这款耳机不适合您。如果您正在听流行、摇滚或嘻哈音乐，索尼 WH-CH500(Sony WH-CH500)可以做得很好。但是，如果您是古典音乐迷，或者喜欢听现场音乐会，耳机就显示出它们的弱点。与中音相比，低音和低音有点太大声，然后一些高音有时似乎会在途中丢失。这并不是说音频质量不好，只是不是最好的。但是，与我们使用过的其他耳机相比，您可以以相同的价格(price tag)买到，索尼 WH-CH500(Sony WH-CH500)听起来要好得多。
注意：(NOTE: )如果您想测试您的耳机并将其与其他耳机进行比较，我们建议您在 Spotify 上收听此播放列表：要测试耳机的歌曲(Songs To Test Headphones With)。其中的音轨非常适合检查耳机是如何产生声音的。
索尼 WH-CH500(Sony WH-CH500)上的麦克风非常出色。我们使用这款耳机和 iPhone SE 打了几个电话，我们和通话另一端的音频质量都非常好。麦克风在消除环境声音方面做得很好，因此即使在嘈杂的环境中说话，您的声音也很清晰。
在耳机的右耳罩上，索尼(Sony)安装了几个媒体控制按钮，我们发现它们很容易够到和使用。它们在听音乐和接电话(phone call)时都很有用。由于它们，您不必接触智能手机 - 您可以按耳机上的右侧按钮来调节音量、更改正在播放的歌曲或接听电话(phone call)。
我们还想提一下，耳机非常轻巧，而且它的耳罩可以旋转。它使它们更容易随身携带，但也使它们看起来和感觉有些脆弱。
虽然索尼 WH-CH500(Sony WH-CH500)不是专为游戏玩家设计的耳机，但我们在玩刺客信条黑旗(Assassin's Creed Black Flag)时也使用过它，耳机在游戏中的音质让我们很满意。
索尼 WH-CH500 是一款性价比不错的蓝牙耳机，无疑比同价位的其他耳机要好。它作为随身携带的便携式耳机特别有用，因为(Sony WH-CH500 is a good Bluetooth headset for its price, and it is undoubtedly better than others sold at the same price tag.

Unboxing the Sony WH-CH500
The Sony WH-CH500 arrives in a lightweight, small matte white box with a square shape. On its front side, you can see an illustration of the headset, its name, and a few of its main features.
On its back side, there are three additional pictures of the headset, plus details about its features, printed in a few different languages.
When you unpack the box, you get to see what is inside: the headset, a quick start guide and a USB to micro USB cable for charging the battery.
The unboxing experience is quick, and there is nothing fancy about it. You get all the basics you would expect from a headset that is under 80 dollars, but nothing more. However, Sony packaged everything carefully, with attention to details.
Hardware specifications
The Sony WH-CH500 is a wireless headset that uses Bluetooth version 4.2 connections to stream music and any other audio from your smartphone, tablet, computer or any other devices you might pair with it. It supports A2DP, AVRCP, HFP, and HSP Bluetooth profiles, and has a range of up to 30 feet, or 10 meters.
Speaking of Bluetooth pairing, Sony created this headset to be friendly for those of us who want to use the same headphones with many different devices. The Sony WH-CH500 comes with NFC support, so you can tap your smartphone or tablet to the headset's NFC tag to make them connect.
The headset also has a few media control buttons on it: a Power/Pairing/Play button and a volume rocker that can also act as Forward/Back buttons.
Being wireless means that the headset also has a battery inside. Sony equipped it with a Lithium-ion battery pack that should last for 20 hours of playback time, and which fully charges in about 4 and a half hours, using the micro USB ports found on the right headphone.
The sound comes out of the two compact driver units that are 1.18 inches (30 mm) in diameter. Considering that we are talking about an on-ear headset, the drivers are quite large and should offer better sound quality than other similar headphones.
The Sony WH-CH500 wireless headset also has a microphone, and it supports hands-free calling and voice assistant commands. That means that you can use your voice to command Google Assistant if you are using an Android device, or command Siri if you are using an iPhone or iPad.
The headphones are not large, and Sony built them to swivel, which means that they are relatively easy to carry with you, in a bag or rucksack. Another reason for them being friendly with you when you are traveling is the fact that they are lightweight, weighing only 4.94 ounces, or 140 grams.
Everyone has its favorite colors, so it is good to know that the Sony WH-CH500 wireless headset is available in three different colors: black, blue and gray. The sample that we tested was the gray one.

The Sony WH-CH500 wireless headset looks like a well-rounded device that is designed to be comfortable to use especially when traveling. It can play audio for a whole day, and it is useful to be able to pair it with different devices almost instantly using the NFC feature or Bluetooth.
Using the Sony WH-CH500 wireless headset
The Sony WH-CH500 wireless headset has circumaural headphones, meaning that they are designed to cover the outer part of your ears when you wear them. However, we would classify them as on-ear headphones. However, although they are not as comfy as "around the ear" headphones, the plush on the driver units is soft and comfortable. You can wear the Sony WH-CH500 headset on your head all day, and your ears are still going to be happy. 🙂
On the other hand, the headband has no plush, and the plastic on it sits directly on your head. It can get slightly uncomfortable after a while. If you do not have much hair, that moment when it annoys you is probably going to come sooner rather than later. We also noticed that the headband is stiff and tends to squeeze your head, which is not a good thing if yours is bigger than the average. 🙂
The audio quality is above the average you get from other headsets with a similar price, but if you are an audiophile, this headset is not for you. If you are listening to pop, rock, or hip-hop music, the Sony WH-CH500 does a good job. However, if you are a fan of classical music or if you like listening to live concerts, the headphones show their weakness. The bass and lower tones are a bit too loud compared to the midrange sounds, and then some of the highs sometimes seem to be lost on the way. That is not to say that the audio quality is not good, it just is not the best. However, compared to other headsets that we have used and which you can get at the same price tag, the Sony WH-CH500 sounds significantly better.
NOTE: If you want to test and compare your headphones with others, we recommend that you listen to this playlist on Spotify: Songs To Test Headphones With. The tracks in it are great for checking how sounds are produced on your headphones.
The microphone found on the Sony WH-CH500 is excellent. We made more than a few phone calls using this headset and an iPhone SE, and the audio quality on both our part and on the other end of the conversation was excellent. The microphone does a good job at canceling ambient sounds, so your voice is clear even talking in noisy environments.
On the right ear cup of the headphones, Sony mounted a few media control buttons, which we found to be easy to reach and use. They are useful when listening to music but also when taking a phone call. Because of them, you do not have to reach your smartphone - you can press the right buttons on your headphones to adjust the volume, change the song that is playing or answer a phone call.
We would also like to mention the fact that the headset is very light and that its earcups can swivel. It makes it easier to carry them with you, but it also makes them look and feel somewhat fragile.
Although the Sony WH-CH500 is not a headset designed for gamers, we also used it while playing Assassin's Creed Black Flag, and we were pleased by how good the headphones sound in-game.
Sony WH-CH500 is a good Bluetooth headset for its price, and it is undoubtedly better than others sold at the same price tag. It is especially useful as a portable headset to take on the road with you, as it offers superior audio quality compared to in-ear headphones. However, for some people, the headphones can be uncomfortable to wear for a long time, and they also seem to be a bit fragile.
What is your opinion about the Sony WH-CH500 headset?
You now know what we think about the Sony WH-CH500 wireless headset, what we like and what we do not like about it. After reading our review, what is your overall impression about it?
