Edifier WH950NB Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Headphones -LDAC Codec with Hi-Res Audio and Custom EQ via App After 55H Playtime with Foldable Wireless Over-Ear Bluetooth V5.3 Headphones - Black

Overall: I would recommend these beautiful cans to anyone looking for something that knocks the mid range headphone game out the park with a mid range budget as you cannot go wrong with these for so many reasons, my only gripe and it's small, is that I would have liked these to adjust to be a little bit more wider due to my large head and ears but after an okay amount of use I feel that these will be okay for long period of time and I am most delighted to be keeping these for the foreseeable. Connectivity & Setup: Connecting to these with my Android (Honor Magic 6 Pro) was absolutely beautiful, not sure if it's due to the Google fast pair feature it has but a pop up with a picture of these cans saying it will connect to my device and Google account appeared and one button press and presto. I downloaded the app and had a plethora of options, to activate the multipoint feature, LDAC, safe volume mode and etc. Build Quality & Comfort: The build quality feels and looks premium, I ordered the Black model and it has a soft smooth black appearance with the metallic parts around the outer earcups giving a dark blackish purple look that the product photo doesn't show and I quite like it. The soft padding is a great welcome to comfort and does extend to allow me to wear and use these. I will say however that my head and ears are quite large and it does give me the slight niggling impression of a small (like 4%) discomfort, either due to my ears being to large (although they do fit inside the ear cups or due to it not extending just that little bit more which would probably help with any extra added potential pressure, I've only just got them and have worn them non stop for 1hr and what I have felt hasn't increased in the sightest which is a great sign, maybe for me I just need to reposition, but for people with smaller heads will be absolutely fine. Sound Quality: These sound absolutely phenomenal, the only word I can say to capture what these provide at such a great price, I wasn't sure on how these would be as I've never heard of this brand before and was going to either buy the Sennheiser Accentum Plus or Space One Pro but I am very very thankful that this wasn't a mistake especially with the 15% off discount that just sealed the deal. I have set these to LDAC 96kHz after swapping between LDAC 48/44.1kHz and no LDAC to see the differences and I did lean more into the highest LDAC option, not sure if I need to make sure the music is also of a quality best suited to the headphones but I am very impressed. Mic Quality: These are the first headphones I've owed where the Mic Quality feels on par if not better than my phone mic quality, did some testing and playback via WhatsApp voice recording as I do voice notes and calls a lot and need something that works and these not only work but far excceded my expectations, the experience is astounding, I could hear absolutely 0 background noise during playback and I sounded so absolutely clear. I also played it back on two different Phones and both results came back as impressed and positive. ANC, Ambient Features: The ANC on this really does a tremendous job in blocking out noise, and the Ambient Mode is absolutely incredible, in Ambient Mode I could hear and whole conversation in front of me as if I weren't wearing something blocking my entire ears. I have 5 options to choose from: High Noise Cancellation, Low Noise Cancellation, Wind Reduction, Ambient Noise and ANC off which I can switch between ANC on/off & Ambient with the press off a button via the headphones or change to each option via the app widget or notification bar due to the great app integration. Review after 3 months of use: So far everything above I've mentioned hasn't changed I still have an incredibly joyful experience however I've noticed one particular issue which I've experienced on a rare occasion for the last month a couple updates ago where the headset voice is quiet when turning on, there's no sound giving the impression that the headset is off, yet my devices can still connect to it. I'm then unable to turn it off and the only solution is to quickly plug it into a USB cable as if to charge it, then quickly unplug it and when pressing the on button the voice appears and it works as expected. A easy fix but a bit of an annoyance if you're out and about and don't have a usb cable, portable charger/plug to remedy the issue, otherwise it's perfect.

I bought a pair of these as a pair of affordable headphones for wearing out and about. I have to say they are one of the most comfortable pairs of headphones I've ever worn. They also look pretty good, and care has gone into the industrial design. The Bluetooth sound quality is decent enough on Android, thanks to LDAC. However.... Apple's AAC codec is not supported. This means that using the headphones on an MacBook / iPad / iPhone in bluetooth mode will result on slightly noticable lower sound quality. Connected to those devices with the cable will solve the problem. Aside from that, the headphone's build quality is decent, it comes with all the standard accessories. The App is okay, but not really necessary. All in all, a worthy pair of headphones for the price.

I've been using these headphones for little over a week now, and I have some thoughts, including some criticisms, but the TL;DR is that these headphones are an absolute steal for the price-to-performance proposition. Let's start with where I've come from, the expensive elephant in the room so to speak. The Sony WH-1000X series from XM2 to XM5. I'm seasoned with the higher-end when it comes to Active Noise Cancelling (ANC), and while the Edifier's don't quite match-up to those units, they still offer a completely surprising and quite refreshing noise-cancelling experience for the price, I'd say reaching around 80% of the ANC performance of their Sony counterparts. This came as a complete surprise to me, and I have a feeling it won't be long before the midrange category are nipping at the heels of the bigger players in the industry. Sound quality is where I was completely blown-away, and the breadth of customisation that Edifier provide in the companion app is absolutely fantastic. When left in the default "Dynamic" setting, the headphones have a noticeable v-shaped sound, putting strong emphasis on clarity with the high-range, suppressing the mids to a manageable level, while accentuating the bass to give a sort-of pseudo sub-bass that is sure to please keen bass-lovers. EDM, hip-hop, and rock titles are amongst my music preferences, and these headphones easily breezed through every single track with a pleasant sound, while sometimes being a little sharp for my ears on the high end, this was easily manageable through the app, and I'd encourage any owner to download Edifier Connect and tune these cans to your liking for the best experience, trust me, you won't be disappointed. The build quality is, for lack of a better word, fine. You can see the cost-saving measures in manufacturing at work here, but this doesn't affect the wearing experience at all, in fact they're very comfortable to wear for long periods of time, and I found myself only starting to fatigue after about 4 hours of constant listening, but this is my limit for most headphones, so your mileage may vary. Overall, these headphones are easy to recommend. The noise-cancelling performance is great, sound quality is awesome, and the comfort is spot-on. All of these categories are an easy win for the price, blowing Soundcore and similar budget-friendly alternatives right out of the water easily. So, should you Avoid, Shortlist, or go right ahead and buy? I think you should absolutely go right ahead and buy them, if you're searching around this price-point and have managed to avoid all of the up-sell sponsored spots from Sony and Bose, you'll love these headphones and they'll quickly become an EDC for you!

Le Edifier WH950NB sono un’ottima scelta per chi cerca cuffie con cancellazione attiva del rumore (ANC) e un suono di alta qualità, sia in modalità wireless che cablata. Uno dei punti forti è proprio la possibilità di utilizzare l’ANC anche quando le cuffie sono collegate via cavo, un’opzione non sempre disponibile in questo tipo di prodotto e che le rende particolarmente versatili, ad esempio in volo o quando si preferisce risparmiare batteria. In modalità wireless offrono una connessione stabile e una qualità sonora davvero notevole: i bassi sono pieni, gli alti nitidi e il bilanciamento generale è molto piacevole, adatto sia alla musica che alla visione di film o alle call di lavoro. Anche l’ANC è efficace, in grado di ridurre sensibilmente i rumori ambientali senza compromettere la qualità del suono. Dal punto di vista del comfort, le WH950NB sono ben costruite e leggere, con padiglioni morbidi che aderiscono bene alla testa. Unico piccolo neo: lo spazio interno per le orecchie non è particolarmente ampio, quindi chi ha orecchie più grandi potrebbe avvertire un po’ di pressione dopo un uso prolungato. Tuttavia, nel complesso, restano molto comode anche per sessioni d’ascolto di diverse ore. In conclusione, le Edifier WH950NB offrono prestazioni di alto livello a un prezzo competitivo, distinguendosi per la qualità audio, la versatilità d’uso e la cancellazione del rumore anche in modalità cablata – un dettaglio che fa davvero la differenz

A good headset for it's price. Noise canceling definitely not was good more expensive models. Music sounds great. Easy to control.

Die Edifier WH950NB haben mich rundum überzeugt. Der Klang ist klar, ausgewogen und bietet sowohl bei Musik als auch bei Podcasts oder Videos ein tolles Hörerlebnis. Der Bass ist präsent, aber nicht übertrieben – genau richtig. Das aktive Noise Cancelling funktioniert überraschend gut, besonders in Büros oder unterwegs – Umgebungsgeräusche werden zuverlässig ausgeblendet. Auch der Tragekomfort ist top: Die Kopfhörer sitzen bequem, selbst bei längerer Nutzung. Akkulaufzeit, Verarbeitung und die App-Steuerung runden das Gesamtpaket ab. Für den Preis bekommt man hier wirklich viel geboten – klare Kaufempfehlung!

Para empezar, diré que no soy ningún experto en sonido, soy un usuario normal para el que expresiones como "bajos coloreados" no le dicen nada. Antes de decidirme por estos auriculares, visité un montón de reseñas de muchos modelos de entre 70 y 400€. Básicamente buscaba unos auriculares con buena cancelación de ruido para aislarme a la hora de estudiar y trabajar. Al final me decidí por estos después de ver varios vídeos y leer varias reseñas. Creo que he acertado plenamente. Sonido: Me parece redondo. He probado el sonido HD pero sinceramente lo he acabado desconectando porque primero, la mayoría de plataformas no emite con esa calidad, y segundo y más importante, lo cual pasa en todos los modelos de todos los precios si no me equivoco, se pierde la conexión multipunto... y eso para mi es más importante. Si escucho música en mi ordenador y me llaman al móvil, me encanta poder descolgar, responder la llamada, y seguir escuchando mi música sin tener que hacer nada. Sinceramente, no he apreciado una diferencia como para rasgarse las vestiduras entre el sonido de alta resolución y la calidad normal... porque ya la calidad normal es sencillamente buenísima a mi juicio. También vuelvo a decir que no soy un experto, no soy capaz de diferenciar los instrumentos y sus posiciones como he visto que hacen en algunas reseñas. Me sorprendió muchísimo un día que me dio por jugar a un videojuego de tipo shooter y sabía perfectamente desde dónde venían los tiros gracias al audio espacial. Por este último motivo los he probado con vídeos de sonido espacial y rinden de forma sobresaliente. Micrófono: No hay mucho que decir, en las llamadas, sobre todo al principio, le preguntaba a la gente cómo me oían y todos me decían que perfectamente, yo también oía la llamada muy bien... eso sí, recomiendo no hacer llamadas con la cancelación máxima de ruido porque oyes tu voz super bajita y como dentro de una lata... al menos a mi, eso me desconcentra de la conversación. Mejor conectar antes el modo de sonido "ambiente", que anula incluso la cancelación pasiva de ruido gracias a los micrófonos que incorpora... una pasada. Cancelación activa y pasiva de ruido: No he tenido ningún otro auricular con esta función, pero como prometían en las reseñas, ya solo con la cancelación pasiva (las almohadillas que rodean las orejas) te aíslas bastante. Con la cancelación activa, se anulan perfectamente ruidos de tipo continuo como por ejemplo el ventilador del ordenador o el ruido de fondo del motor de un avión durante un vuelo. Bajo mi punto de vista es excelente. Por ejemplo, yo estudio en una habitación y me ha pasado varias veces, que no he oído entrar a alguien y me ha tenido que dar en el hombro para que le oyera... y sí, me dio un buen susto :D También diré que tampoco es que te aísle al 100%, no creo que eso exista, pero sí que quita bastante. Si estás en un ambiente demasiado ruidoso, siempre puedes poner una música bajita o por ejemplo algo de "ruido blanco" o "ruido rosa" (este lo descubrí hace poco), que no es otra cosa que una frecuencia que ayuda a anular el sonido ambiental y que al final tu cerebro "cancela" sin darte cuenta. Entre los modos de cancelación, tienes cancelación máxima, mínima, mitigar el sonido del viento, sonido ambiente y desconectado. Diseño: Son geniales para mi gusto. Elegantes y con materiales muy premium bajo mi punto de vista. Además incluye una funda rígida super útil. También incluye cables para cargar y conectar a puerto de auriculares, además de un adaptador para los aviones. Las almohadillas sí que dan algo de calor, pero esto igual es algo subjetivo en cada persona. Una cosa importante, es que las almohadillas rodean completamente la oreja, lo cual es super importante de cara a la comodidad, si los vas a llevar varias horas puestos. Los he tenido del tipo que apoya la almohadilla en la oreja y al rato me dolían. Los botones son pocos y fáciles de localizar. Además el botón de cambio de modo de sonido, se puede configurar como quieras. No tiene controles táctiles, pero esto para mi es una ventaja, estoy seguro de que continuamente los activaría sin querer. Batería: Bueno pues como decían en alguna reseña que vi, "los cargo por aburrimiento". Dura una barbaridad. Por poner un ejemplo, después de varios usos largos, pensé que estarían casi sin batería, y al consultar la carga que quedaba (eso sí, en la aplicación), resulta que estaban al 70% todavía. Una pasada, además cargan por USB de tipo C. Lo que se podría mejorar: Me resulta super engorroso el cambio de sonido HD a normal, tienes hasta que reiniciar la app... pero esto no sé si es igual con otros dispositivos. De todas formas, como dije antes, me trae más cuenta el sonido normal por agilidad de uso. Otro punto en contra es que ciertas funciones las tienes que controlar desde la app. Por ejemplo para ver la batería que queda. Otros modelos, te dicen al encenderlos el porcentaje que queda... tampoco es un defecto gigante, pero me gustaría que lo dijese. Otra cosa que añadiría es que se pusiera el sonido en pausa al quitártelos, pero con lo que dura la batería... como que tampoco es algo vital... y siempre puedes pulsar el botón de pausa... que también es que nos volvemos de un perezoso... jejeje En conclusión. Unos auriculares que recomiendo totalmente si quieres algo bueno. Con una excelente cancelación activa de ruido y que seguramente cumpla todas tus expectativas. Si quieres aislarte para poder estudiar tranquilamente o que no te molesten en exceso, creo que son una opción ideal. No los he probado en la biblioteca, pero casi seguro que serán un complemento perfecto. Espero que resulte útil esta reseña. :)

Totally worth it. Clean and Crisp sound quality. I have tried many headphones. The clean and crisp sound quality of this Edifier headphones is simply fantastic. Go for it without a doubt. This does not have an artificial bass or treble. You will feel the bass where you need it. It has most of the required controls on the headphones itself and you do not need an app to control which is great, especially when you are using this with a laptop or a PC. I took some zoom calls and MS team calls with this headphone and the other person heard me very clearly. I asked them how was my voice and they said it is very clear. I did not test the mic in a noisy condition but when you are in office, this works really well even to take calls. I generally do not write reviews but we get carried away with brands like BOSE and SONY due to their advertising strategies. I was totally impressed with this one as the price was half of what sony and bose has for their premium headphones. Go For It!
