I bought this online and as I am writing this review, I am currently using them to listen to music. Also, the microphone is really clear, since I work mostly on my computer and online meetings are a norm now. Everybody understands me very clearly. Great headphones for the low cost.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi Plupatelas, Awesome! We are so glad to hear that you are happy with your new WHCH520! Thank you for choosing Sony! -Carl
I ordered a pair of these headphones for myself and they were perfect! Not too expensive but it played well and looked really nice. Overall they're a great budget product! But three months go by and the right side stops playing sound. This was a huge bummer but luckily I called customer support and they helped me ship it back and gave me a new free pair. However, about the same amount of time goes by and the right side stops working again. This time I noticed that if I pressed on the joint between the band and the speaker it would play for a millisecond. So really I think a wire was just being pinched and it was just a simple manufacturing problem. I haven't heard anyone else struggle with this issue but it's weird that it happened to me twice with this product. Now I have just decided to upgrade to a nicer pair since I don't want to fight the budget battle and I still love Sony products. Just keep this in mind when ordering :)

Hi Brotu, Thank you for reaching out to us. We're sorry to hear the issue that you experienced with the original and replacement headphones. This is definitely not the news we'd like to hear. Your needs and satisfaction with our product is our top priority. We'd like to help and do the best possible for you.
Please try some solutions below if no sound or sound is only heard from one side of the headphones: Turn on the headphones, then check if the Power indicator flashes. Charge the headphones and check if the headphones turn on and the sound is heard from the headphones. Turn up the volume on the connected device. Reset the headset or Initialize the headset to restore factory settings, and pair the headset and the device again. If you have a different smartphone, Walkman, or other devices, perform a Bluetooth pairing with the headphones and one of these other devices, then check to see if the sound is heard from the headphones.

Got these as a Christmas gift and after a couple months of use the left side earpiece fell off. There is no physical damage on o the headphones except where the earpiece rotates inside the headband. The wire is still intact and sound still works. Really liked these until they fell apart.
