The Integrated Processor V1 is the standout upgrade over Sony's entry-level headphones — it drives genuine Active Noise Cancellation through Dual Noise Sensor technology, meaningfully reducing background noise on commutes, in offices, or while studying, while Ambient Sound Mode lets you dial awareness back in when needed. The same chip works alongside DSEE to restore detail lost in compressed audio files, and the headphones carry 360 Reality Audio certification for a more spatial listening experience with supported streaming services.
Calls benefit from Precise Voice Pickup technology, which combines beamforming microphones with a wind noise reduction structure to keep your voice clear even outdoors. Bluetooth Multipoint lets you stay paired to two devices at once, and the Sony Headphones Connect app unlocks EQ customization to tune the sound to your taste. Battery life remains a strength: up to 50 hours with ANC off, 35 hours with it on, and a 3-minute quick charge good for roughly an hour of playback. A 3.5mm wired input covers you if the battery does run out. The earcups swivel flat for storage, though the headphones don't fold down further, and there's no official water resistance rating.
