WF XB700 DRIVERS
WF XB700 BLUETOOTH

ItвЂ™s great to see Sony has decided to bring its true wireless offerings to a broader audience. XB700 seems to hide its vocals behind all that bass while the SP800N sound is more balanced and hits you with just the right amount of everything. Now you see the higher number and you will expect better sound, right? XB700 pushes that EXTRA BASS to the limit thanks to those higher numbers in the drivers.

Codec support for both is SBC/AAC.ДЄs far as audio, XB700 uses 12mm drivers while SP800N has 6mm drivers. Realistically using both I canвЂ™t remember either one distorting or disconnecting which is a plus.

Audio QualityД«oth support Bluetooth 5.0 but SonyвЂ™s SP800N also touts a better chipset for better sound and connection. Neither one has NFC which for me is disappointing since I always enjoy using it. The last one being most important as you can change the EQ, customizable the controls, and most important get updates. SP800N has active noise canceling with ambient sound, touch controls, and app support. This is where SP800N takes the helm compared to the XB700. But this really matters only depending on what you plan on doing. Mainly means the higher number will have more resistance to things. Speaking of activities, the XB700 has an IPX4 rating while the SP800N is utilizing IP55. Also, they werenвЂ™t prone to loosen up on me over time especially doing various workout activities. I found the SP800N not providing discomfort over long periods compared to the XB700. XB700 went for the usual pop in your ear method but they stick upward in the ear rather than outward while the SP800N stick out but provide extra security thanks to its arc support. Rocking each set of earbuds, the comfort experience was definitely different. The SP800N on the other hand has a small led indicator light right on the front. When charging, the XB700вЂ™s lid is rather translucent so you can see the charging indicator lights coming straight off the buds. These you can easily put in your pocket and not even realize they are there too much.Д«oth cases do feature Type C charging though and have magnetic prongs that will secure the earbuds upon contact. The XB700 case on the other hand is super compact and seems to shave about half an inch off space. Big enough to leave a slight budge in the pocket. The SP800N has a similar look to prior Sony cases being curved and quite bulky. The first thing you will notice is the size of the cases. While these are both wireless earbuds designed by Sony their styling slightly differs. But which one will work for you between the two? Design The WF-SP800N on the other hand are feature-rich and should everything to satisfy the music listener and fitness junkie in you. SonyвЂ™s WF-XB700 cater to those that want to get into SonyвЂ™s true wireless lifestyle but not pay their prices. They both look to be aimed at different markets based on their features but most important is the prices. This year so far Sony has released not one but two different pairs of truly wireless earbuds.
