Verdict

The Sony WH-H900N (h.ear on 2) are closed-back, over-ear wireless headphones featuring active noise cancellation (ANC), 40mm titanium-coated drivers, and high-resolution audio support via LDAC (up to 990 kbps) and DSEE HX. Key pros include an impressive 28-hour battery life (ANC on), intuitive gesture-based touchpad controls, lightweight comfort, and a balanced, clear sound profile suitable for various genres. Main cons include only moderate, non-elite noise cancellation compared to flagship models, no hard shell case included, a slow 6-hour charge time via micro-USB, and sometimes weak ANC performance in high-wind conditions.
