    I have both CH720 and XM4s, and I bought them together at same time. I love watching video and noise cancellation in XM4 and music and smaller weight in CH720, which I mostly use for traveling, walking outside everyday and for gym. XM4s I mostly use to watch videos and listen to music at home, to sleep anywhere I need to sleep and also on very long flights they are a savior.

    I bought a pair of these with my Aeroplan points and right away it wouldn't charge and after hours of looking for a solution online, I had to take apart the right earpiece and disconnect the tiny battery pack from the circuit board for a few minutes then reconnect it and put it back together. It actually worked and they've been working just fine since. And they actually sound pretty damn good.

    Thanks for the great review. I´ve heard that the Sony WH CH720 N head piece is made of a fragile plastic, specially on the pieces that join the drivers with the headset so it can easily break down. On the other hand, what about the ear pads material quality? For those who have been wearing them for over a year, please let me know your experience.

    I just ordered a blue one last night. Can't wait for the delivery anymore!!! I've been using Airpods Pro 2 and they hurt my ears and my head after a couple of hours (literally got a headache). So I decided to buy an over-ear headphone to be an alternative.

    I’ve had a pair for six months. Bought to replace my expensive Bose earbuds which were worn out. I wear them on long haul flights and they’re excellent, plus you can plug them into the aircraft audio output. I’ve never run out of battery.
    You do need to run them through the app to get the best sound out of them.

    • @gely3110
      @gely3110 Před 24 dny

      Audio technica is focussed specially for audiophiles, so go with the m20xbt, but keep in mind that they don’t have the most comfortable padding, you can buy an aftermarket ones that will boost the comfort

    • @gely3110

      No, not with spatial audio. However, Sony has their own system of surround sound called Reality 360 Audio. These are not as widely used and mainly work well with music (on specific platforms like Amazon Music/tidal, not on spotify). I believe that most movies don't have this ability

    I've had the oportunity of testing the 720n vs the Philips tah8506 that are cheaper and honestly, Philips ONLY loses to transparency mode and the APP features, all the rest Philips is way better. Better anc by far, better sound out of the box by far, same Confort, better features for example the left hand on the ear CUP to talk to someone, hardcase, better mic for calls by far, and better looking...
    I dont understand why no One is doing reviews on the Philips tah8506 has they are One of the best budget headphones on the market, i can buy them under 100€ at the time. Philips is clearly underrated at this time
