Sony’s new entry-level C500 earbuds were released just a few weeks ago.

But the buds are compact, lightweight, fit comfortably and sound good for an entry-level model.

While these earbuds have background noise reduction during voice calls, they only have one microphone in each earbud.

Many earbuds now have two or more microphones to help process ambient noise and capture your voice.

A tight seal is crucial for optimal sound quality and getting maximum bass performance.

The same digital processing technology is found in the 1000XM4 models.

They interface with the Sony Headphones Connect app, so they will be able to get firmware updates.

That’s impressive battery life.

There’s also an extra charge in the charging case, which uses USB-C. Sure enough they now are.
