Our Verdict
Sony WH-CH510 Wireless
JBL Tune 510BT Wireless
The Sony WH-CH510 Wireless and the JBL Tune 510BT are fairly well-matched, though you may prefer one over the other depending on your needs. The JBL have a more comprehensive control scheme, provide superior mic recording quality, and can pair with two devices simultaneously. Meanwhile, the Sony have a more breathable, stable fit and block out marginally more background noise, though their performance in this respect is still poor.
