Sony WH-XB910N price in India and availability
The Sony WH-XB910N costs Rs. 14,990 in India, which is significantly less than the flagship Sony WH-1000XM4, which typically sells for roughly Rs. 25,000 online. The new XB910N headphones will be available both online and in-store, through major portals and merchants around the country, as well as the Sony online store.
At this price, the Sony WH-XB910N positions itself as a less expensive option to the WH-1000XM4, but it is priced at the same level as the previous generation Sony WH-1000XM3 (review), which is still an outstanding headset for the price. There aren't many capable over-ear wireless headsets in this price bracket, so Sony's WH-XB910N is in a good spot given its affordability.
Sony WH-XB910N specifications and features
Sony WH-XB910N headphones are part of the Extra Bass line and are tuned for more snappy bass and attack. According to my early thoughts, the headphones produced a powerful and forceful sound, akin to the Sony WH-XB900N (review) headphones.
Furthermore, the headphones connect through Bluetooth 5.2 and support SBC, AAC, and LDAC Bluetooth codecs, resulting in enhanced quality with high-resolution audio recordings. Many listeners searching for a more active set of headphones will be drawn to the bass-friendly audio character, which is best suited to current techno and pop music. The WH-XB910N headphones are best utilised with an Android device because they support the LDAC Bluetooth codec, but they also support the AAC codec, so they won't seem out of place with an iOS device.
The Sony WH-XB910N headphones also include active noise cancellation and a battery life of up to 30 hours on a single charge. There is USB Type-C rapid charging, which is touted to offer 4.5 hours of listening time with a 10-minute charge. The headphones are compatible with the Sony Headphones Connect app, which is available for both Android and iOS and allows for firmware upgrades, equaliser adjusting, and other customizations. The app may also be used to configure Sony's 360 Reality Audio and view critical metrics such as the Bluetooth codec in use and the remaining battery % on the headphones.
