PUSH5

Hi there Amazon deal was short lived, this deal is very similar to playswithfire's TGG deal,
except delivery is cheaper from TGG eBay store. (TGG $8 vs TGG eBay $5.26).
PLUS USE COUPON: PUSH5
Original PUSH5 5% off Sitewide on eBay Deal Post
for $150.61 Delivered or $145.35 C&C from Tuggerah if you live in the Central Coast or Ipswich in QLD.

WARNING: Just looked up the details to the FIRMWARE UPDATE, and it says as follows.
Firmware update 3.0.0
Optimises the headphones for Google Assistant
IMPORTANT:
Installing this firmware will only make your headphones compatible with the Google Assistant.

As far as I know you can pull up Siri with long press of the button with default firmware. It appears if you update your firmware it may ONLY work with Google Assistant. Please do your own research before updating firmware. It is often difficult or impossible to roll back firmware.

Sony WH-CH700N Noise Cancelling Bluetooth Over Ear Headphones $150.61 Delivered (TGG eBay + PUSH5 code) [$145.35 C&C@Tuggerah]
https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-Sony-WHCH700NB-Wireless-Nois…

Previous Prices ($179 TGG, $197 Videopro).
Currently $249 on Sony Australia Store website. $299 at JB hiFi.

  • 35 Hours battery life (When connecting via the headphone cable with Noise Cancelling ON :
    Max. 50 hours)
  • Charging Time Approx. 7 hours (Fast Charge for 10 mins = 60 mins music playback.)
  • One touch NFC Pairing and Bluetooth.
  • Smartphone App + Voice assistant with firmware update
  • Supported Codecs: SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD

From what I've read and heard:

  • Weaker noise cancelling than WH-1000XM2,XM3. These will do a decent job with constant droning sounds, less so with people talking/traffic etc.
  • Comfortable for people with big ears and big heads, due to large earcups and moderate clamping force of headband.
  • These fold flat, but XM3 folds inwards once more to become more compact.
  • Better battery life compared to XM3's (35 Hrs vs 30 Hrs for XM3)
  • Cheaper price appealing to those who just use casually/occasionally.
  • Sony has an app to adjust EQ to change the sound to your own taste. (I think once you set the eq it saves it inside the headphone, so no matter what you connect the EQ continues to work in custom setting [Please do some research on this as I am not 100%])
  • Voice Assistant is accessed through holding an actual button. Which most people find easier and less troublesome than the tap and hold of touch sensor on XM3.
  • Works wired and wireless. (So you can continue listening after battery is flat, although without Noise Cancelling).
  • Good reviews. 4.3/5 Stars - Sony AU website. But if you want the best noise cancelling at the moment go for XM3.

Im sure other ozbargainers can chime in on user experiences.

    Forgot to redact my vote straight after posting… noob mistake… vote redacted.

    • pretz92 on 13/01/2019 - 16:09

      As long as you aren't associated you can positive vote your own deals can't you?

      • thebadmachine on 13/01/2019 - 16:11

        it auto votes +1 from your own account when you post a deal. so you just have to redact it.

        • pretz92 on 13/01/2019 - 16:14

          Yeah but you don't have to redact it if unless associated is what I mean (also when ticking associated it doesn't auto vote).

          • thebadmachine on 13/01/2019 - 16:15

            @pretz92: I think its an unspoken rule that you should redact your own vote, as it is not an accurate display of true upvotes.

              @thebadmachine: I've never heard of that before and as far as I can tell none of the top posters redact their own vote: tightarse, Being Askhole, chibot, nocure, Clear, etc.

              I think you can relax ;)

              • thebadmachine on 13/01/2019 - 20:06

                @dazweeja: I heard it… somewhere in the comments sections… may have only been mentioned once…

                • Moderatorneil on 13/01/2019 - 22:44

                  @thebadmachine: It's so unspoken, no one has every spoken about it. No need to revoke your vote. The vote signifies you think it is a good deal so unless you are posting a bad deal (which shouldn't happen either), then you shouldn't be revoking your vote.

  • Cheapascents on 13/01/2019 - 15:31

    i would buy it, but i already have a lot of headphones and earbuds i dont use.

      commended. certainly i am one for only getting quality items and when they will be put to use.

  • ultraviolet on 13/01/2019 - 17:53

    I have one of these. The battery life is extremely long. Quality is very good. Sound quality is excellent as well.

    • hindo on 13/01/2019 - 20:31

      How is the noise canceling on them?

      • thewarden on 13/01/2019 - 21:45

        It's not bad - not at QC35 or the 1000 levels, but it works fine on the train/bus. Like others have said, I prefer the sound from these, but they do have an issue with the swivel sections breaking. I had two pairs replaced under warranty, and have now just taped the swivel section so it can't swivel anymore.

      • ultraviolet on 13/01/2019 - 22:31

        I think comments from others on noise cancellation were correct - weaker than the more expensive Sony models or Bose models. It could cancel the sounds from someone using the treadmill next to me.

  • jimmytuan on 13/01/2019 - 21:45

    I've been looking into getting a wireless set for myself, would these be a good bang for buck headphones? Or am I better off spending more on a Bose or Sennheiser? I'll mainly use it when I travel on the plane.

  • Hinee on 14/01/2019 - 09:47

    Shouldn't have thought about these for too long - doubled in price :(
