Exceed your expectations
The WI-C100 redefine entry-level wireless in-ear headphones. With Sony’s exceptional sound quality, they offer a rich listening experience while a long 25hr battery life and splash-proof design give you peace of mind when you’re out and about. They’re also compatible with the Sony | Headphones Connect app, so you can adjust sound to suit your tastes.
Long battery life of up to 25 hours
Enjoy up to 25 hours of non-stop music. And if your headphones are running low on power, a 10 minute quick charge will give you up to 60 minutes of playback.
Make your music sound more natural
When an original music source is compressed, it loses the high-frequency elements that add detail and richness to a track. Our Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) faithfully restores them to produce high-quality sound that’s closer to the original recording.

Your sound, just how you like it
Tailor your sound to your personal preference. Choose from a variety of presets to match the genre of music you’re listening to, or create and save your own custom presets using the equaliser feature on the Sony | Headphones Connect app.
Well-balanced tuning
The sound tuning is intentionally designed to be well-balanced from low to high frequencies, and vocals are natural and clear. So the WI-C100 headphones match any music genre.
Splashes and sweat, no problem
With an IPX4[1] water resistance rating, splashes and sweat won’t stop these headphones – so you can keep on moving to the music.
Fits easily into your life
Lightweight and portable, the WI-C100 headphones have a flexible neckband that makes them even easier to slip into your bag when you’re on the move.
A comfortable fit
The WI-C100 headphones drape over the back of your neck for a stable fit, while the housing follows the contours of the ear for maximum comfort.
Easy operation with buttons
The WI-C100 headphones are easy to operate, with buttons to play and pause, skip tracks and adjust the volume, as well as receive calls. For convenience, the buttons have even been redesigned, with a more pronounced shape making them easier to press.
Stable wireless connectivity
Say goodbye to tangled wires – with Bluetooth® wireless technology, you can connect to your device wirelessly and enjoy stable, uninterrupted listening.
Clear hands-free call quality
