(SINGAPORE, 26 November 2018) – Sony today unveiled its latest addition to its family of innovative Bluetooth® noise cancelling headphones, the new WI-C600N neckband. Aimed at music lovers, the WI-C600N comes jam-packed with superior wireless sound quality and noise cancelling features, all while ditching the cables to provide wireless freedom anywhere and everywhere.
Enjoy music without distraction
Whether it is travelling on a crowded train or on a long bus journey, Sony’s noise cancelling technology eliminates loud distractions to give you a peaceful commute. Keeping out the clamour of the outside world, never miss a beat with the WI-C600N and fully indulge in your favourite music.
You can also choose to let in surrounding ambient sound by activating the Ambient Sound Mode which lets in just the right amount of outside noise to keep users aware of their surroundings while still enjoying your favourite tunes. Switch easily between Noise Cancelling and Ambient Sound Mode with a simple push of a button.
Designed for everyday wireless freedom
With the WI-C600N, users can go completely hands-free while making calls or listening to music as it comes with a built-in microphone and is compatible with Google Assistant1 and Siri. The magnetic housing also cleverly snaps the earbuds in place to keep tangled cords at bay. The headset is also perfectly engineered to enhance comfort for prolonged use. The impressively light-weight neck band fits securely and is made with an elastic material to improve wearing comfort, making them ideal for all-day wear.
The WI-C600N also supports one-touch listening so users can instantly stream their favourite music via Bluetooth® with just a tap from their smartphone on the NFC™ logo of WI-C600N.
Superior sound quality
The WI-C600N comes equipped with DSEE (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine), a technology developed by Sony which enhances the sound quality of compressed audio files by restoring highrange sound removed by the compression process. The WI-C600N promises the same crystalclear sound that Sony fans have come to know and love.
The WI-C600N comes in three stylish colours, black, grey and blue.
The new WI-C600N will be available at selected Sony Stores, Sony Centres and Sony authorised dealers for S$ 199.00 from January 2019.
