Sony WH-CH510 Wireless Review

Update 01/31/2022: These headphones were updated to Test Bench 1.5 and their latency values have changed. Our previous Test Bench 1.4 measurements reported ‘iOS Latency’ at 185 ms. However, our new test bench uses an average of three measurements instead of one, resulting in 119 ms on iOS. As a result, we have updated our text to better reflect test bench 1.5 measurements.

The Bluetooth connectivity of these headphones is good. They support NFC pairing, making it easier to connect them to an NFC-enabled device, and their latency on iOS is decent. Unlike the JBL Tune 510BT Wireless, however, you can’t pair them with two devices at the same time, so you can’t stream music from your phone while remaining connected to your computer. In addition, their latency on PCs and Android devices is quite high, and you may notice syncing issues between your audio and visuals. That said, some apps and devices compensate for latency differently, so your real-work experience may vary.
