Product details

Listen to your music, not the rain. You can customize the active noise cancellation feature of these wireless over-ear headphones to suit your situation. With 30 hours of playback time and a flexible quick charge function, you are well-equipped for the entire journey. Adjust the volume by swiping up or down on the touch control panel of the ear cup. You can activate or deactivate the noise cancellation feature with a single tap. When the power mode is on, you can hear more of the world around you while the music continues to play. The built-in microphone with echo cancellation ensures clear sound during phone calls. From playlists to podcasts, perfectly tuned acoustic neodymium drivers deliver deep bass and clear mid-tones. The soft ear cushions cover your entire ear, providing a seal that passively isolates external noise. The headband is lightweight, easily adjustable, and features a smooth surface, ensuring that the headphones won't get tangled in your hair. These wireless headphones have soft ear cups that can be folded in two ways. You can fold them flat and easily store them in a drawer at the office. Alternatively, you can fold them flat and inward to create a compact bundle that fits comfortably in your jacket or handbag. Whether it's playful piano sequences or crisp guitar riffs, no matter what music you love, with the High Resolution Audio headphones, you can fully enjoy every note. When you connect a high-resolution source, you benefit from lossless audio recorded at a higher sampling rate than CDs, providing incredibly faithful sound reproduction.
