Is it headphones or a headset for work – and who is the manufacturer? The Poly Voyager Free 60+ UC is hard to categorize. And the answers to the questions are not definitive… Poly is an American manufacturer of telecommunications equipment, including headsets. Many people know the company’s products, including the Voyager series, under the …
The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II have some new features compared to their predecessor, in addition to being reduced in size by over 30 per cent. This is noticeable as the new ones are significantly more comfortable. The microphone also provides better sound on calls than its predecessor’s stemless design. You can save up to four …
Free Byrd is larger than most, almost on par with NuraTrue Pro, which are quite large in order to accommodate perhaps the most advanced technology available in any pair of earbuds. But in Free Byrd, you’ve just got the standard features, including noise cancellation and ambient sound, so strictly speaking, it should have been possible …
The market for completely wireless earbuds has become very crowded, with a few standing out among a large crowd of mediocre ones. With its new top model TW-E7B, Yamaha wants to carve out a place for itself in the premium segment and has invested in large 10 mm drivers to reproduce the music with the …
With the all wireless Fidelio T1, Philips takes on the class-leading premium hearing aids. It’s a bold move, as this price range includes the Bowers & Wilkins PI7, Devialet Gemini and Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EQ. In fact, Philips earbuds cost about 20 percent more than Sony’s latest top model, the WF-1000XM4. That’s a commitment! …
In a day and age when we’re increasingly connected, consuming more music, movies and podcasts than ever, there’s one thing that quickly comes with the wrong equipment: a lack of comfort. It matters little how good a pair of earphones or earbuds sounds, if you get sweaty ears after the first track. At the same …
I would argue that my favorite earplugs are still the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2. They sound great, sit nicely in the ears, are partially waterproof and have both noise reduction and ambient sound. But they are also quite expensive. That’s why last year Sennheiser launched its little brother CX 400BT, with much of the …
Bang & Olufsen has recently expanded its range of wireless headphones at a speed that almost makes you dizzy. Among them the lifestyle gaming headphones Beoplay Portal and the high-end flagship Beoplay H95. Beoplay EQ is a physically much smaller novelty, namely a set of completely wireless hearing plugs. And for the first time with …
When it comes to the ability to entertain, few are above or beside Klipsch. Their speakers ooze rock factor, while being very versatile in music style. They are world famous for their horn speakers, and use horn treble for almost everything. Since horn elements do not exist for headphones that I know of, Klipsch still …
When you get below the thousand mark for a pair of completely wireless earplugs with good battery life, it starts to taste like a bird. Skullcandy Sesh Evo is also water and dust protected with IP55 certification, which means that you can train well with them – even in heavy rain. Skullcandy has something they …
The most affordable completely wireless earbuds from Audio-Technica are also the most modern. For example, the ATH-CK3TW is the first to charge with USB C instead of micro-USB, and the extra playing time from the charging case has increased from 9 to 24 hours, compared to other plugs from the same manufacturer. Where the ATH-CKR7TW …
The Jaybird Vista sports earbuds are special in that the wings that attach the earplugs to the inside of the front helix are attached to the pads themselves. Three sizes included: Medium-sized pillows without wings, medium-sized pillows with medium-sized wings, and large pillows with large wings. My ears should probably have had medium-sized pillows with …
With the Panasonic RZ-S500W, Panasonic really means business. First, they place themselves in a price segment with tough competition. Secondly, the S500W is packed with technology. Extra large Bluetooth antennas improve stability, and Panasonic believes they have some of the best call quality on the market. Thanks to microphones with beam characteristics. These should be …
We recently tested the third generation of Bang & Olufsen Beoplay E8, which had been corrected for childhood diseases from the first two generations of completely wireless earplugs. But Bang & Olufsen had more up their sleeve: a sports version of the Beoplay E8 that has just landed in the reviewer’s ears. The Beoplay E8 …
They look like cheap AirPods copy. But the Timekettle M2 is more than the “original” can dream of. The great thing about these cheap earbuds is neither the protruding microphones, nor that they, unlike AirPods, can play music in aptX format. Instead, Timekettle with the M2 earbuds can translate everything you say into virtually any …
