Introduction

For weeks, I’ve been putting the WH-CH720N/WCE White noise-cancelling wireless headphones through their paces. These over-ear headphones promise a comfortable and immersive audio experience, ideal for long commutes, flights, or simply enjoying your music at home. Let’s delve into whether they live up to the hype.

Features

The WH-CH720N/WCE boasts several key features designed for both convenience and superior sound quality. The standout feature is undoubtedly the Adaptive Noise Cancellation (AINC). This technology is supposed to intelligently adjust the noise cancellation based on your environment. Beyond this, the headphones offer Bluetooth connectivity for seamless wireless pairing with your devices, a built-in microphone for hands-free calls, and comfortable over-ear design. The lightweight build was a surprise given the impressive noise cancellation capabilities. Pairing was quick and straightforward.

Performance

The noise cancellation on the WH-CH720N/WCE is genuinely impressive. I tested them on a busy subway commute and was pleasantly surprised by how effectively they muted the surrounding noise. The low rumble of the train and the chatter of other passengers were significantly reduced, allowing me to fully immerse myself in my music and podcasts. The AINC feature definitely seems to work, adapting to different noise levels quite well. However, I did notice that very high-pitched sounds, like a shrill whistle, were less effectively cancelled. Sound quality is also excellent. The bass is surprisingly powerful for a headphone of this size, providing depth and richness to my music. The mids and highs are crisp and clear as well, offering a balanced audio profile. I listened to a wide range of genres, from classical music to hard rock, and was consistently impressed by the clarity and detail. The microphone also performed admirably, delivering clear and understandable calls even in moderately noisy environments.

Pros & Cons

Let’s summarise the good and bad points:

• Pros: Effective noise cancellation, great sound quality, comfortable design, lightweight, easy pairing, decent microphone quality.
• Cons: Less effective at cancelling very high-pitched sounds, battery life could be slightly longer.

Final Verdict

The WH-CH720N/WCE White noise-cancelling wireless headphones deliver a great all-around audio experience. The impressive noise cancellation, combined with excellent sound quality and a comfortable fit, makes them ideal for commuters, travellers, and anyone who wants to lose themselves in their music. While not perfect, the minor drawbacks are easily overshadowed by its strong points. I highly recommend the WH-CH720N/WCE to anyone looking for a reliable and well-performing pair of wireless over-ear headphones.
