Sony is known for producing some of the best wireless headphones we've tested, but the top picks usually cost at least a couple of hundred dollars. Luckily, the company also offers budget alternatives like these Sony WH-CH520 for only $38 at Amazon (was $69.99).
The Sony WH-CH520 offer great value for the price. Balanced sound, a built-in microphone, a 50-hour battery life, and multi-point pairing are just a few strengths that make them a solid pick for anyone looking for cheap, reliable wireless headphones from a reputable brand. These cans also feature on-ear cups that swivel for easy storage, and a lightweight, plastic body that isn't as heavy as pricier counterparts.
Today's best cheap headphones deal
The Sony WH-CH520 are some of the best budget wireless headphones we've tested — and that judgment still stands today. They boast balanced sound quality, up to 50 hours of battery life, and handy features such as multi-point pairing and in-app customization. They're a bargain at $38, plus you can choose from a variety of fun colors that make it easy to express yourself with these lightweight, travel-friendly headphones.
The WH-CH520 aren't meant to compete with the best wireless headphones, but they stand out in the budget tier for more cost-conscious consumers. In our Sony WH-CH520 Wireless Headphones review, we rated them 4.5 out of five stars for the aforementioned sound quality, battery life, and convenient features like Bluetooth multi-point pairing and sound customization through its audio app.
Like many Sony headphones, the WH-CH520 come in many colors, from plain black and beige to vibrant blues and greens. All colors are on sale for the same price, so don't feel shy about picking one that stands out.
Besides our best wireless headphones, I'd recommend looking at our lists for best noise-cancelling headphones, best travel headphones, and best headphones in general.
