See the XB900N in action
Discover these wireless, noise-canceling headphones with a host of smart functions like intuitive touch controls, Quick Attention for easy conversation, and a long battery life, all in a smart design that's made for all-day listening with deep, punchy sound.
EXTRA BASS™ for impressively deep, punchy sound
As part of the EXTRA BASS™ range from Sony, the WH-XB900N noise-canceling headphones enhance all your low-end frequencies for exceptional bass. A dedicated bass duct on the headphone housing and increased air-tightness between the driver units and eardrums help to create precise, punchy rhythms that lift every track. Yet the headphones also maintain vocal clarity for a wonderfully rich, well-rounded listening experience.
Noise-Canceling technology
Shut out the world and enjoy your own party for one with digital noise cancelation plus EXTRA BASS sound quality.
How it works
A small microphone inside the headphones collects ambient sound (traffic noise, for example) and noise canceling circuitry analyzes its signal waveform (A). The headphones then generate an inverted waveform that is the exact negative of the ambient sound (B). By overlaying the original sound with the inverted sound (C), they neutralize each other — so the only thing you hear is your music.
Enjoy wireless freedom with NFC and Bluetooth® technology
Near Field Communication (NFC) and Bluetooth® wireless technology remove the need for wired connections and complex set-up sequences. Simply touch your NFC-enabled device to the headphones for a quick, seamless connection, then start streaming your music collection. No NFC? No problem. Connect via Bluetooth and you're ready to go.
Wireless streaming with a Bluetooth® connection
Wirelessly stream your favorite tracks with Bluetooth® wireless technology by pairing your smartphone or tablet.
NFC™ One-touch for instant connectivity
Touch selected NFC™-enabled devices to the on-body N-mark for a quick, seamless Bluetooth® connection.
Long battery life for all-day power
A charge of around 4 hours keeps you powered all day with approximately 30 hours of play time. Or a 10-minute quick charge provides up to 60 minutes of listening.
Sleek design and long-listen comfort
Whatever your look, the simple, sleek, sophisticated design of the WH-XB900N noise-canceling headphones with a one-color accent on the housing is the perfect match. Soft cushioned ear pads offer long-lasting comfort, ideal for listening to your favorite albums, back-to-back.

Control at your fingertips
Change the track, turn the volume up or down and take or make calls by tapping or swiping the touch panel on your headphone housing. For the Quick Attention function, just touch the right housing and the music volume is instantly reduced, enabling you to hear ambient sounds — from someone asking you a question in a cafe to announcements at a train station.
