Plush, well-sealing pads, light enough for long wear

Each part is rated on one scale for every earbud and headphone, from lab test measurements where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports. It rates the product itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Pleasant, well-judged sound in the lab; lots of EQ control
  • Plush pads that seal well and stay comfortable for long sessions
  • LDAC, AAC, multipoint and audio over USB
  • Clear separation, forward vocals, solid bass that EQ can raise
  • Battery claim of 94 h stands out
  • Detailed app with custom EQ and ANC modes
  • Wider stage than most budget wireless pairs, clear mids, smooth treble

Cons

  • Noise cancelling below average in their test
  • Mic copes poorly with office noise and wind, though usable
  • No IP rating, no case, plastic scuffs easily
  • ANC decent but behind big brands
  • Spatial mode sometimes sounds muffled
  • A little less comfortable than Edifier's WH950NB; no case or 3.5 mm cable
  • Bass lacks low-end foundation without EQ
  • SoundGuysJan 2025

    A strong budget over-ear with tunable sound and a comfy folding build; ANC measured below average for the class. US version.

  • Cult of MacJul 2024

    Good value budget ANC headphones with huge battery and a capable app; not in the league of Sony or Apple. US version.

  • MajorHiFiJun 2024

    More than solid for its price, with features usually found on dearer pairs. US version.

  • Their new favourite under $100: light, comfortable and long-lasting, with ANC the weak spot. US version.
