This is a new mod­el from Apple: the most thought­ful design and impec­ca­ble sound. Thanks to the adap­tive equal­iz­er, the sound para­me­ters are auto­mat­i­cal­ly adjust­ed based on the geom­e­try of the ear, so bass and mids are adjust­ed indi­vid­u­al­ly. Due to this tech­nol­o­gy, the sound is volu­mi­nous and real­is­tic.

Head­phones are not afraid of water, as they have IPX4 type mois­ture pro­tec­tion, which the case also has. This allows you to lis­ten to music even in rainy weath­er or dur­ing intense work­outs. Man­age­ment is car­ried out using a pres­sure sen­sor.

The mod­el is uni­ver­sal, suit­able for lis­ten­ing to music, audio­books both in a relaxed atmos­phere and dur­ing vig­or­ous activ­i­ty. Head­phones look styl­ish and will be a great acces­so­ry.

It is worth con­sid­er­ing a full-size mod­el of pre­mi­um head­phones for true music lovers. They repro­duce clear sound, as they are cre­at­ed tak­ing into account many years of expe­ri­ence of pro­fes­sion­als in this field. This is a wire­less mod­el, which pro­vides max­i­mum com­fort dur­ing use and trans­porta­tion. Head­phones are able to work with­out recharg­ing up to 20 hours, and this sig­nif­i­cant­ly dis­tin­guish­es them from com­peti­tors.

This mod­el has active noise can­cel­la­tion, which is also adjustable, and you can also turn on the “ambi­ent mode”, which allows you to hear all exter­nal sounds. Shure Aon­ic 50 embod­ies all the lat­est devel­op­ments and is equipped with many addi­tion­al fea­tures. It is worth pay­ing atten­tion to the pres­ence of a pre­mi­um class ampli­fi­er and the abil­i­ty to con­trol using the Shure­Plus PLAY appli­ca­tion.

This is a styl­ish and mod­ern mod­el of TWS head­phones. Free­Buds 4i are in-ear, due to this they have good noise reduc­tion. If we talk about the sound, it is clean, bal­anced, but to a greater extent, these head­phones are adapt­ed for play­ing pop music.

In addi­tion, the mod­el has pro­tec­tion against water and dust IP54, which allows you to lis­ten to music in almost any con­di­tions. The head­phone case is made in a com­fort­able, stream­lined shape, so it does not take up much space.

Not a very famous mod­el and man­u­fac­tur­er. These head­phones are quite inter­est­ing and unusu­al, start­ing with the case and end­ing with the device itself. The cov­er of the case does not just open, as in most oth­er mod­els, but slides up like a slid­er. The head­phones them­selves are styl­ish, look orig­i­nal. The sound is bal­anced, clear, the voice is clear­ly played, and instru­men­tal com­po­si­tions sound har­mo­nious­ly and bass­es are repro­duced.

To sta­bi­lize the sound, there are sev­er­al built-in modes and an equal­iz­er. A spe­cial fea­ture is the HearID test, which allows you to cus­tomize each ear­bud just for you.

How to choose bluetooth headphones

In order not to make a mis­take in choos­ing the right mod­el with such a vari­ety blue­tooth head­phones on the mar­ket, the edi­tors of the KP addressed to Artem Antonov, Com­mer­cial Direc­tor of Aval­oni­ka.

Head­phone sound qual­i­ty is a high­ly sub­jec­tive con­cept. This is affect­ed not only by the source itself, but also by the state of the user’s hear­ing.

It is gen­er­al­ly accept­ed that the sound qual­i­ty of blue­tooth head­phones is some­what low­er than that of wired ones. There­fore, for blue­tooth head­phones, the dura­tion of oper­a­tion and charg­ing speed are no less impor­tant than sound, since no mat­ter how amaz­ing they sound, an hour of play­back and long charg­ing are unlike­ly to suit any­one.

Popular questions and answers

What should I do if the blue­tooth head­phones keep los­ing con­nec­tion with the device?
First of all, dis­con­nect from the device, then recon­nect. Next, check if the gap occurs in the same place geo­graph­i­cal­ly. There are cas­es of con­stant dis­con­nec­tion with dif­fer­ent head­phones at the same inter­sec­tion.

Also, if pos­si­ble, it is worth check­ing the qual­i­ty of the con­nec­tion with anoth­er source, whether there are breaks with it. Well, you should not for­get about the lim­i­ta­tion of the blue­tooth range and the pres­ence of obsta­cles between the trans­mit­ter and receiv­er.

Are blue­tooth head­phones harm­ful to health?
It’s some kind of elec­tro­mag­net­ic radi­a­tion. But the harm from it is no more than from a per­son smok­ing 10 meters from you on a street with high traf­fic inten­si­ty and, as a result, abun­dant exhaust gas­es.
