Features
EXTRA BASS™ for impressively deep, punchy sound
As part of the EXTRA BASS™ range from Sony, the WH-XB900N noise cancelling headphones enhance all your low-end frequencies for exceptional bass. A dedicated bass duct on the headphone housing and increased air-tightness between the driver units and eardrums help to create precise, punchy rhythms that lift every track. Yet the headphones also maintain vocal clarity for a wonderfully rich, well-rounded listening experience.
Noise Cancelling technology
Shut out the world and enjoy your own party for one with digital noise cancelling plus EXTRA BASS sound quality.
Enjoy wireless freedom with NFC and Bluetooth® technology
Near Field Communication (NFC) and Bluetooth® wireless technology remove the need for wired connections and complex set-up sequences. Simply touch your NFC-enabled device to the headphones for a quick, seamless connection, then start streaming your music collection. No NFC? No problem. Connect via Bluetooth and you’re ready to go.
Long battery life for all-day power
A charge of around 4 hours keeps you powered all day with approximately 30 hours of play time, so you can keep on listening, track after track, mix after mix.
Quick charging when you’re pressed for time
If your headphones are running low on power, a 10-minute quick charge will give you up to 60 minutes of play time. Ideal if you’re rushing around from place to place.
Sleek, foldable design and long-listen comfort
Whatever your look, the simple, sleek, sophisticated design of the WH-XB900N noise cancelling headphones with a one-colour accent on the housing is the perfect match. Soft cushioned ear pads offer long-lasting comfort, ideal for listening to your favourite albums, back-to-back. Finished listening? Simply fold them up for easy carrying.
Built-in mic for easy conversation
It’s easy to talk, even with your headphones on – a built-in mic enables you to take hands-free calls from selected smartphones. Just double tap the headphones’ right housing to answer a call and swipe up or down to adjust the volume.
Control at your fingertips
Change the track, turn the volume up or down and take or make calls by tapping or swiping the touch panel on your headphone housing. For the Quick Attention function, just touch the right housing and the music volume is instantly reduced, enabling you to hear ambient sounds – from someone asking you a question in a cafe to announcements at a train station.
Sony | Headphones Connect app
Download the Sony | Headphones Connect app to customise your listening experience. Features include Adaptive Sound Control, which automatically detects what you’re up to – for example, travelling, walking, or waiting – then adjusts ambient sound settings to suit the situation. The app also lets you customise these to your preferences, adjust sound levels with the equalizer, and more.
Be smarter with Voice Assistant
Manage your day by connecting to your smartphone voice assistant through the headphone’s built-in mic. Enjoy entertainment, connect with friends, get information, listen to music and notifications, set reminders, and more.
