Rundown
Reviewers from Digitaltrends have found the following[***]:
Sony's WF-XB700 are true wireless earbuds that are meant to sound more fun than refined. They have a pronounced footprint that extends well outside of your ear, a quirk that only gets more irksome each time it happens. The buds would easily take me through an entire workday before having to recharge. But again, if you're after reference-level audio, these aren't the buds for you.

Reviewers from Pcmag have found the following[***]:
The WF-XB700 earpieces have a somewhat nondescript, eggshell-like finish on their outer panels. Internally, 12mm Neodymium drivers deliver a frequency range of 20Hz to 20kHz. Sony estimates battery life to be roughly nine hours, with another nine hours in the charging case.

Reviewers from Phonearena have found the following[***]:
The Sony WF-XB700 truly offer good bass, up to 18 hours of battery life (with the case) and sport an IPX4 rating. All that, along with their snug in-ear fit and resulting passive noise canceling makes them a good choice for running or use at the gym. Unlike the slightly more expensive headphones, these don't come with a companion app.

Reviewers from Rtings have found the following[***]:
The Sony WF-XB700 are a decently versatile pair of truly wireless in-ears, though they lack a lot of features. As part of Sony's "XB" series, they're designed to provide an extra thump and punch in the bass range. They don't have an active noise cancelling feature, a companion app, or any sound customization features, but they should still be suitable for most casual listeners.

Reviewers from Techadvisor have found the following[***]:
Sony WF-XB700 earbuds come in a choice of either black or dark blue. The exterior of the headphones are made from plastic and are an oval shape. On the rim of each bud, you get manual button controls which can be used to pair the headphones, adjust the volume, skip tracks and pause/play your audio. There's no support for the aptX codec on these buds - only SBC and AAC.

Reviewers from Techradar have found the following[***]:
The Sony WF-XB700 are one of Sony's cheaper true wireless earbuds and come in at $129 (£130, around AU$200) That's a sizable savings compared to the $199 (£169, AU$319) Sony Wf-1000XM3. This three-level design isn't exactly space-efficient – and is likely to be incredibly polarizing for people who just want slim, sleek buds – but it does have some advantages. That secure feeling plus their low weight makes them surprisingly comfortable and easy to wear for long periods.

Reviewers from Trustedreviews have found the following[***]:
The Sony WF-XB700 are large true wireless earphones. They are part of the Extra Bass family and cost less than the ANC XF-1000XM3. The earphones have powerful low bass, which adds a muscular power to music. They last for ages between charges, should fit in most ears well, are suitable for exercise and sound good too.

Reviewers from Whathifi have found the following[***]:
Sony WF-XB700 are part of the company's Extra Bass range of audio products and are tuned to emphasise low-frequency response. Design is aimed at fitness fanatics who value sweat-resistance and an ergonomic fit. Bluetooth 5.0 is onboard to provide reliable connectivity between your source and the earbuds.
