Sony has been on the top of the ladder when it comes to a premium range of audio products across the globe including India. The Japanese tech giant has a wide product portfolio that caters to the audience demanding a rich audio listening experience. However, of late, the company has also been expanding its affordable product lineup across India and other markets. We have seen several TWS earpods and over-the-ear headphones, along with portable speakers catering to the budget audience in India. The latest TWS earpods from Sony have arrived as one of its cheapest audio devices in the Indian market. Called the Sony WF-C500, the newly launched earpods packs some modern hardware along with a bunch of Sony’s signature audio tech.
Sony WF-C500 TWS Earbuds Key Features To Check Out
Starting off with the design, the Sony WF-C500 ships in a pill-shaped cylindrical charging case inside of which you’ll find the small earbuds. The top of the charging case has a translucent cover that gives it a slightly different appeal from other available Sony TWS earbuds cases.
Notably, the earbuds aren’t touch-sensitive rather are equipped with button-feedback to allow media playback and volume controls. The Sony WF-C500 further employs 5.8mm drivers under the hood that deliver a frequency response range of 20Hz- 20,000Hz. Sony has packed these new affordable TWS earbuds with its signature Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE). This technology is used by the company in its premium-range products as well for high-end audio delivery.
Additionally, the WF-C500 TWS earbuds also come with Android Fast Pair support for quick connectivity with Android smartphones. Besides, the earpods are also compatible with iOS devices, tablets, laptops, and PCs via Bluetooth. The wireless earbuds are also enabled with voice-based Digital assistant support. The handset supports both Siri and Google Assistant on Apple and Android smartphones respectively.
Sony has decided to skip ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) feature on this model. As for the battery, the company hasn’t specified the size but claims up to 10 hours back up on a single charge (earbuds) and another 10 hours additional capacity (charging case). It has quick charging support where the case can refuel the earbuds to last an hour with 10 minutes of recharge.
