Tech Review – Edifier WH820NB Plus headphones

The Edifier WH820NB plus are an affordable pair of headphones with a bit of punch thrown in when it comes to the audio experience, over the years we have being checking out the tech from the company they have been consistent when it comes to audio at all price points and in short there is no cheap take on it when it comes down to how your music is delivered to you via their products

The headset itself this time around comes in several colours which is a good start and might look and feel a bit cheap but still it is robust and it is a headset that can be worn for hours on end with no clamping effect and sweaty cups, I have tested these on my travels to Milan recently and with the humidity over there they did not cause any issues for me and the fact they are so light makes them super comfortable over hours of listening to music or even gaming if you wish as these have a gaming mode included.

The buttons on the headphones are on the small side but work well and all is kept to one side which makes navigation simple and after a few minutes use you will have no issues using them and they are tactile and work really well dishing out the commands you want with no mistakes so in that department all is good. On the buttons you can control your listening mode volume levels track selection and so on.

With the audio aspect again the company has delivered here with an excellent pair of cans with 40mm drivers and a great audio experince in gaming music and more so for those who want to take a punt you will not be sorry, during my usual test run they surpassed all expectations with nice volume decent ANC was noted, no distortion on maxed out volume and overall the highs lows and mids and no matter what genre was listened to they done a superior job and I would not expect anything less from the company anyway at this stage. Calls also done really well for me on my testing and from the few calls I tool people could here me clearly and same on my end and you have built in DNN which aides the quality.

Battery life is also excellent here on the headphones and at the higher end of the tier for longevity

The app as seen below is again available for the headphones and works really well and is simple to use you can also avail of their widget too if you wish, check out the video review for more where we take a look at the app and discuss the features and more and you get to see what value you get for your money here.

Tech Review – Edifier WH950NB Hi Res Audio Wireless Headphones

Edifier have always delivered a robust good sounding pair of headphones no matter the cost and that surprised me some months ago when we test out a pair of headphones I was not expecting to sound good at all which was the wH500 which were fantastic for the price and sounded great despite not being the ususal style of headphones I would take shine to.

The latest from Edifier the WH950NB are no different and for me have been a joy to use over the last few weeks and again exceeded my expectations and not only this their app which has got better it seems really helps out and gives you more control over how you want things including sound and some controls.

The build and design is very clean here and most of the time are for the company keeping things simple with simple controls on one side which we go through in the video review below and of course we check out their app so be sure to check it out as it might also help you.

The headphones are comfortable and sit nicely on the ears and once placed correctly they omit much of the outside world and with their superb ANC you can forget about what is going on outside as they just block it all out which I like but you do have the option to have ambient ambient mode turned on and not only that you have gamer mode so everyone is covered here.

For the Audiophile here we also get LDAC which changes the sampling rate which is a bonus we also have multipoint connection too so again a great bonus for those working with two devices LDAC is only available on Android devices take note.

The sound overall is fantastic using their 40mm dynamic drivers and one thing for me and remember it is my personal finding from the review is theatre mode which pouts you right in the centre of everything and sounds just great with not a peep from what is going on outside given we have a level of protection with safe volume they have done an excellent job on the ANC end of things here.

You can skip and reverse tracks adjust the volume and control calls and access your AI voice assistant from the controls on the headset or use the app for some features too making it an easy pair of headphones to use all round, there is an MFB button which you can access your voice assistant from or change the ANC settings and the keys overall on the headphones worked really well with no issues to report at all and worked as instructed in their manual.

Overall excellent sound to be had here for gamers and more with no distortion at maxed out volume noted nice bass and good on phone calls too, I would like to see more colours perhaps but apart from that there is nothing to complain about and we have a decent battery life too but this worked out under their claims as all do but this is down to you and your settings and mine is always volume up and so is the bass which naturally takes a hit but for anyone else who uses 70-80% volume will reach the figures claimed. Another feature to note is the 7 hours playback with just a 10 minute charge.

The App 

Conclusion –  These are an excellent pair of headphones and work well sound great and give you a real theatre experience and much more and do not cost as much as other competitors on the market offer sub par experience for the price. See the video review for an in depth look at what to expect and check out their app Edifier Connects.
