I owns both headphones. MY MDR7506 is a used one, YR 1991, 30 years old and still going strong. MDR7506 is a lot better soundwise. The bass is more powerful and cleaner. MDR7506 shines when it comes to treble. It does not have noise cancellation but I am ok with it. There are a few good points with WHH910N. It is wireless, tactile, lighter and lasts very long on one full charge. I use the WHH910N mainly for watching TV, but as far as music is concerned, I would prefer MDR7506 especially when I am working on the laptop / Desktop. My opinion is that the MDR7506 is the winner when it comes to sound.

I have been using them for nearly eight years, I have changed three pairs of earpads (the last ones perforated and expensive, but fabulous for comfort). Great listening headphones to not faint. When I bought them, discounted by 50%, they were on offer, but their full price was still around € 130-150. They are not completely neutral. A little lacking in the deep bass and excessive in some high frequencies. You can noticeably improve with an equalizer, even software. On pc I use APO equalizer for Windows & PEACE. They have always been comfortable. For listening to movies and series, they are excellent, for music, as mentioned, they must be equalized correctly. They are born as a studio monitor, but I don't know how realistic the pro use is. In any case I feel very comfortable, they are quite comfortable both on the head and on the ears. I changed the first pavilions after about three years of very frequent use: 2-4 hours almost every day. Always the first pavilions are decently insulating, but the outside does not disappear and something comes out. They are very popular and still today they are good headphones, completely repairable, a sign of the pro address.
We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry. A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products.

The first number of the IP rating refers to protection against dust, while the second number refers to protection against liquid. E.g. a first number of 6 denotes that it is completely dustproof, and a second number of 7 denotes that the device can withstand full immersion in water.
The device is designed in a way that allows sound to go out through the back of the ear cups, which usually have vents or perforations. This design provides very natural and accurate sound.
The device is dustproof and water-resistant. Water-resistant devices can resist the penetration of water, such as powerful water jets, but not being submerged into water.
This type of device allows you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the volume to overcome background noise. Ideal for plane rides and morning commutes.
Impedance is the device’s electrical resistance to the current being pushed through it. The lower the impedance, the easier it is to get higher volume and requires less power.

Battery power, or battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store. More battery power can be an indication of longer battery life.

Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
aptx Adaptive is an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that is developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps), which means it can adjust the bit rate for different scenarios, such as listening to HD audio or reducing interference from other devices.
aptX is a codec used for transmitting audio wirelessly with Bluetooth. It is developed by Qualcomm, and supports 16-bit audio at a bit rate of 384kbps.
LDAC is a codec developed by Sony for Bluetooth audio. It is capable of a very high bitrate of 990kbps, which provides high resolution audio. It can also automatically adjust to a lower bitrate of 330kbps or 660kbps to increase stability.
aptX Low Latency is a codec developed by Qualcomm. It uses Bluetooth 5.0 technology to provide low latency audio (around 40ms), which is useful when you want to avoid audio lag (e.g. when playing games).
aptX Lossless is an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that is developed by Qualcomm. It supports high quality 16-bit/44.1kHz audio (at a maximum bit rate of 1200kbps). This codec provides CD-quality audio without any loss of data.
AAC is a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Ambient sound mode uses microphones to pass through ambient noises so that they can still be heard. It’s useful when you want to listen to music but also be aware of what’s happening around you, for example when you’re jogging but still want to be able to hear traffic.

Multipoint allows you to link to more Bluetooth devices and switch between them. For example you can easily switch calls from one device to another without having to manually disconnect and reconnect.
There is a control panel on the device body, so you can easily access the volume control or remote without having to interact with a cable or another device it's connected to.
A headset is one headphone or pair with a built-in microphone. Headsets can be used for apps that require communication i.e. Skype, games with voice chat, mobile phones, etc.
