    TechRadarHands-on review · 2026

    Delivers sound, features and battery life well beyond its price, though the bass is big and spatial audio underwhelms.

    A competent mid-range over-ear that is comfortable and enjoyable to listen to, with strong battery life.

    Expert ReviewsHands-on review · 2026

    Stylish, feature-rich and long-lasting, but excessive unrefined bass and weak voice handling hurt it.
