Our Verdict
Sony WH-CH720N Wireless
Anker Soundcore Space One Wireless
Between the Sony WH-CH720N Wireless and the Anker Soundcore Space One Wireless, the Anker are slightly better for most people. That said, the Sony headphones offer virtual surround sound, weigh slightly less, and feature a much better microphone, making them a better choice if you take a lot of calls. On the other hand, the Anker have a longer continuous battery life, an excited sound profile with more EQ options, and comparable noise isolation. They aren't miles ahead, but they're slightly better in these regards.
