Sony InZone H9 2: Gaming Headphones That Get Back on Track

Published on March 16, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

Sony has presented the InZone H9 2, a direct update to their gaming headphones. This new version addresses the criticisms received by the previous model, with a clear focus on audio quality and a microphone that is now detachable. The set promises comfort, effective noise cancellation, and versatile sound for all platforms, although with a high price and a 30-hour battery.

Audio technology and a microphone that is now truly optional 🎛️

The technical improvement focuses on two fronts. The audio, with 40 mm drivers, offers a dynamic range designed for gaming, where spatial details and bass have presence without saturating. Active noise cancellation remains a strong point. The notable change is the microphone: from being a fixed and criticized element, it becomes detachable, with clear capture quality and integrated ambient noise reduction.

Finally, you can store the microphone... and your dignity 😌

The detachable microphone is a relief. The previous model forced you to carry that stick sticking out even to watch a movie, as if you were eternally on guard for a game. Now, finally, you can remove it and the headphones look like what they are: normal headphones. A technological advancement that, basically, allows you not to draw attention on the subway. Thank you, Sony, for returning our anonymity.
