It uses the same V1 chip from the flagship iteration to deliver high-quality sound and ANC, which is active noise cancelation at an affordable price. The company also notes that the WH-CH720N battery will last up to 35 hours even with the active noise cancelation enabled. Additional features include DSEE, which is a digital sound enhancement engine along with the company's audio upscaling technology that is able to improve the overall sound of compressed music files on services including [Spotify](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sony-wfc510). The headphones also have multipoint connectivity with two microphones in each ear cup.
