I’ve had plenty of time to really test Sony’s WF-SP800N in-ear buds. I must note that I also own Sony’s WF-1000XM3 earbuds and though there are a few differences regarding premium looks they are still high quality as you would find on anything from Sony. These are a sporty version and slightly smaller. They are sweat, water and dust resistant with a rating of IP55. They fit nicely anywhere, even in my pockets. And unlike other buds with a smaller case that are more prone to fall out or get lost (I own small ones) these haven’t been misplaced or unseen. They are decent size and weight just right.
I’ve gotten about 8-9 hours on a single charge with noise-cancelling on, and about 12-13 hours with it off. You will be able to get one full charge from the built-in battery in the case. When you're running low just pop them back in for 10 minutes and you’ll get another 60 minutes more of play time! Love that!
They are comfortable to wear and do stick out a bit. There’s a weird popping sound when I get out of sync with the connected device and that really hurts. I’ve never experienced this before, and I own about 20 other wireless ear buds. This needs to be addressed because I fear having to run off to the other side of the house and getting disconnected only to get this ear-piercing popping sound.
It does come with a small length Type-C cable, 3 different ear tip sizes and small/larger arc supporters. There is an app (Sony Headphones Connect) that you can download for more customizations which I do recommend for turning on/off features, but they work with or without it as soon as you pair them. They come with a touch interface. One side controls Ambient Sound/Voice Assistant and the other, Playback. You can control volume on the left bud by tapping for volume up or maintaining it touched for lowering the volume. Ambient sound is superb, and they adjust according to the level of noises in your surroundings. I wish they had included the same processor as the 1000XM3 has (QN1e) because the sound quality just isn’t the same on the WF-SP800N.
I have used these for many situations and in different weather. Calls, music, videos, audiobooks, they all sound wonderful. I go from raking my leaves to watering my lawns and I must admit that not having to worry about dust, sweat and water is quite relieving. They both have sensors that knows when you're wearing them or not and you can customize them to pause playback or do nothing. If you tap and hold the left earbud you can listen to the outside sounds and this is an important feature I truly appreciate.
They also work with voice activated assistants and I enjoy using them to control my home. The app will let you create settings for different activities which is a must in today’s fast paced world. You can pair these with multiple devices, but you will have to do it manually. I found it easiest to deactivate Bluetooth from the device I’m leaving and enabling Bluetooth to the device I want to connect to.
These are my favorite in-ear buds. They look nice, sound great, have features that are helpful and last a decent amount of time for my day-to-day life. Worth the buy.

Very comfortable, stays in ears better than WF-1000XM3 and 1MORE TWS ANC, Tweak EQ for better sound
I included a screenshot of my EQ present if you're the type of person that wants less bass and more clarity. These are definetly bass headphones. Alternatively you can purchase Comply Smartcore or Sport Pro ear tips that will also help reduce bass and increase clarity. I am using these Comply tips atm on these bad boys; much more comfortable. TL;DR : Hands down these are the workout versions of WF-1000XM3 earbuds. Durable, water resistant, and a very secure fit with excellent battery life. Same features as XM3s and bassier for an engaging workout. I workout at a noisy private gym that blasts music and the SP-800N cancel out everything for me to focus on my lifts. They have volume controls (customized in the Sony app), good call quality, and an excellent ambient mode. Touch controls are smooth and the touch pad is wide and curved to conform to your index finger. Language voice can be customized and I have these on the Japanese voice pack. The auto play and pause feature upon removal or insertion of the earbuds work smoothly and seamlessly just like the WF-1000XM3. Don't mind the large case since I chuck these in my gym bag and in general they still fit in my pockets fine. Highly recommend, Sony did a great job on them! Context: I have owned the Sony WF-1000XM3 earbuds since last year September 2019. I've tried working out with the XM3s and even biked through a rain storm in NYC with them. I used them in the gym to lift weights and have gotten chalk all over them. The XM3s despite not having an official IPX water rating have still held up. Unfortunately I always disliked how they would over time start falling out of my ears. Even with the official Sony Comply Grip foam tips, I would need to adjust them here and there. Then comes these newly released SP-800N. These SP-800Ns have the wings which is mandatory and what the XM3s should've had. These are amazing, I can now workout, run, or bike without worrying my earbuds will fall. These are just as secure as the Jaybird Vistas I used to own before selling them to a friend. The IP55 water rating is a huge plus. The massive battery, 9 hours with ANC and 13 hours without is amazing. I now use my Sony WF-1000XM3 purely for commuting on public transit (subway and bus) here in NYC and for premium every day carry audio. These SP-800Ns will serve for the gym and as an excellent backup. Because these fit better and seal better, I think they end up blocking more noise in the long run. ANC is almost as strong as the XM3s but the secure fit makes up for it. XM3 buds still have the best ANC. Again, sound signature is bassy which isn't a bad thing. The Sony Headphone Connect App is what makes these one of the best on the market. So many customizable features and full equalizer to tweak the audio to your liking. Only con is lack of wireless charge so hopefully the XM4s and next year's SP upgrade will include this feature. I don't mind the carrying case being large imo. I throw these in my gym bag and they still fit in my pockets fine. Moreover it's kinda eh you only get one charge with the case. Still at least the buds can go for a long time. These are a great purchase! Awesome job Sony!
