The Sony WH-H900N "h.ear on 2" was introduced in 2017 and placed as a slightly cheaper alternative (RRP 299 euros) to the then top model WH-1000XM2 (RRP 379 euros). In the meantime, successors to both models have appeared, namely the Sony WH-H910N (RRP 299 euros) and the Sony WH-1000XM3 (RRP 379 euros). The Sony WH-H900N "h.ear on 2" is, in a sense, a discontinued model - although one has to say that the technical equipment is still good. However, the price trend shows a clear trend, which is of course welcome for us savers as consumers:

There is now a good chance that you can get the Sony WH-H900N "h.ear on 2" Bluetooth headphones on the market for less than 150 euros, which we believe is a fair price for this model. In the medium term, we do not expect a further significant and permanent drop in prices to EUR 120 or even below EUR 100, at most individual regional offers.

At Amazon the Sony WH-H900N has 4.5 stars and 158 ratings (as of 11/2019). The users praise the good sound, high wearing comfort and noise canceling. The latter fights ambient noise with counter-noise, which works particularly well at low frequencies (aircraft hum). Higher frequencies (voices) are hidden less effectively and can penetrate to the listener.

The wireless Sony WH-H900N was developed with a focus on design by a Japanese team and you can see that: the design is fluid and more fashionable-elegant than technical-cool, as with many competitors. Flat splendor or useless glitter has been dispensed with, instead the value is expressed through a silky matt plastic surface. This has also become an important argument, the headphones have long been more than just “sound tools”, but also a fashion statement.
