Best Sony WF-C510 wireless earbuds deal

If you thought that the five-star Sony WF-C500 couldn't be improved upon, think again. The C500 were our favourite wireless earbuds for a good while, scooping multiple Awards in the process, and while they're still a great set of buds at an excellent price, the latest iteration of Sony's budget line has gone all-out on affordability and sound-per-pound value.

You might ask how Sony can deliver such incredible sound at this price point. In essence, they've focused their efforts on sound quality rather than build quality. That's not to say that they're going to fall apart but they are noticeably plasticky.

Feature-wise, the new wireless in-ears offer a total of 22 hours of battery life with the case included, as well as Bluetooth Multipoint, Ambient Sound Control, on-ear button controls and even access to a five-band equaliser via the Sony Headphones App. That's not bad for a pair of buds at this price.

Sonically, the C510 are a departure from the C500. They're richer and more full-bodied than their predecessors, making the outgoing buds seem a little lean and small-scale by comparisons. The quality is all still there though, with impressive detail, clarity and more refinement than you're going to hear from any set of rivals at this level. They do trade off a little dynamic dexterity and agility, but the weight and scale they bring to your music will certainly have its appeal.
