What reviewers said
Edifier W800BT
The Edifier W800BT is a budget-friendly over-ear wireless headphone that prioritizes long battery life and straightforward functionality. It delivers a bass-heavy sound signature that may appeal to some listeners, though the strong low-end can mask midrange and treble details. With Bluetooth and wired connectivity options, it offers decent flexibility for the price, but its plastic construction and lack of advanced features keep it firmly in the entry-level category.
- Pro:Exceptional battery life that matches advertised claims
- Pro:Can be used wirelessly or with a 3.5mm cable
- Pro:Very affordable price point for budget buyers
- Con:Bass overwhelms mids and highs at times
- Con:Plastic build feels less durable
- Con:Only supports basic SBC codec
Sennheiser HD 400
These over-ear Sennheiser headphones are built around a neutral, open-back design aimed at studio work, delivering a wide soundstage and detailed, transparent audio for critical listening. They are lightweight and comfortable for long sessions, with a high-impedance driver setup that helps maintain low distortion, though they lack isolation and come without a carry case. Wired connectivity via USB-C and detachable cables adds versatility, but the open-back nature means sound leaks both ways.
- Pro:Accurate, transparent sound with wide soundstage
- Pro:Lightweight and comfortable for extended wear
- Pro:Detachable cables and USB-C connectivity
- Con:No included carry case or spare ear pads
- Con:Open-back design leaks sound and offers no isolation
- Con:High impedance may require a dedicated amplifier for best results
