Available operating time

The available operating times of the headset with the battery fully charged are as follows:

Bluetooth connection

Music playback time (AAC): Max. 8 hours

Music playback time (SBC): Max. 8 hours

Music playback time (LC3): Max. 8 hours

  • About 1 hour of music playback is possible after 3 minutes charging.
  • If you make the following settings on the “Sony | Sound Connect” app, the available operating time of the battery becomes shorter than the ones described above.
    • Equalizer
    • DSEE™
    • Speak-to-Chat
    • Function to launch the voice assist function by your voice
    • Service Link
    • Adaptive Volume Control
    If you run the above settings at the same time, the available operating time of the battery becomes even shorter.

Communication time

Communication time: Max. 4.5 hours

Standby time: Max. 13 hours

Hint

  • By using the “Sony | Sound Connect” app, you can check which codec is used for a connection.

Note

  • Usage hours may be different from the time described above depending on the settings for the headset functions and usage conditions.
  • The left or right headset unit works as the main headset unit, so it consumes the rechargeable battery faster than the other unit. There is a difference in remaining battery charge between the left and right headset units, but this is not a malfunction.
    The left or the right headset unit can be the “main headset unit” depending on the usage environment.
