Spec score: 80 out of 100

You get up to 80 hours of battery life, which means fewer charges during long weeks of listening. Support for LDAC codecs and a 40 KHz frequency response helps deliver detailed audio from compatible devices. Bluetooth 6.0 ensures a stable wireless connection.

What works

  • Up to 80 hours of battery life keeps you listening for days without reaching for a charger.
  • LDAC codec support allows for higher-resolution wireless audio streaming.
  • The 40 KHz frequency response handles a wide range of sound details.

What does not

  • Portability might be tricky as these are over-ear headphones with a lower portability rating.
  • They rely on bass drivers, which might not suit listeners who prefer flat or neutral sound profiles.

Spec scores — worked out from the specification sheet (chip, battery against screen size, display, camera, ANC…) and the store price, not from hands-on testing. Sound quality and a watch's accuracy are not on a spec sheet, so part of those areas is the price class among similar products. Areas the specs cannot tell us are left out.

Before you buy

Things the product page will not tell you

  • The bass driver configuration alters the sound signature, which might not suit every music genre.

If you want to go deeper

Who should buy it, and who should notStraight answer, both waysHideShow

Buy it if

  • Commuters who need long battery life to last through weeks of travel.
  • Music listeners looking for high-resolution audio support via LDAC.

Skip it if

  • Audio purists who want neutral sound rather than the included bass drivers.
  • People who travel extremely light and need highly portable, compact earbuds.
