Introducing the Amazing Edifier QD35 Bluetooth Speaker – “Acoustics, Lumia, and Electric All-in-one System”.

High-quality acoustics expertly combined with Hi-Res Audio and Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification and support for LDAC. Lighten up your mood with the stunning ‘Lumia Art’ effects: – pulsating, dynamic, vivid lights combined with powerful audio to give a creative, musical experience.

Edifier, the forward-thinking audio-technology brand, have announced the release of the QD35 – a tabletop, Bluetooth speaker expertly designed combining high spec audio features with ‘Lumia Art’ effects for the best acoustic/visual effect. The term Lumia was coined by a twentieth-century artist, Thomas Wilfred, when artists began to promote colors and light together in their works as a form of art that uses light. ‘Lumia Art’ was originally associated with music then latterly paintings. The QD35 is a perfect example of how Edifier have created an aesthetically pleasing speaker incorporating a brilliant, kaleidoscopic display of colored lights. Various preset light effects are available but you can also customize your own light effects using  the Edifier Connect app. 

The QD35 is an all-in-one music system. It is certified to both “Hi-Res Audio” and “Hi-Res Audio Wireless” standards. The USB-A port and the AUX jack on the rear panel support high-resolution audio signals. With the enhancement of LDAC technology, you can also stream high-quality music with a 96kHz sampling rate to this speaker via Bluetooth. 

The full-digit DSP chipset divides the signals precisely into treble and mid-bass. In two independent ways, the TI Closed Loop digital amplifier distributes enhanced audio signals of different frequency bands to target drivers for accurate reproduction. With a total power output of up to 40RMS, the audio blasting from the QD35 can easily fill your lounge, studio or other home living space. 

The casing for the QD35 has been designed to perfectly intensify and balance the acoustics. The 3-inch mid-bass drivers, with the aluminium alloy diaphragm (benefitting from the ‘long stroke’ design) reproduces bass frequency down to 60Hz and provides a mid-sound which is intense and rich. The 1-inch silk diaphragm dome tweeters are finely tuned for the exact reproduction of highs, from which the trebles sound crisp and bright. With the enhancement of MazeTube Bass Reflex Channels and TurbMuff Air Noise Suppression Technology, port noises and resonance are reduced to their lowest level.

Powered by TurboGaN’s high-efficiency charging technology, it can charge 1000+ compatible devices. With the addition of full-time fast charging technology, full time temperature control technology and smart power assignment technology, charging is quick and safe.

The Edifier Connect app allows you to synchronize the clock automatically or manually, customize your own EQs and share your EQs with friends. 

Main Features:

  • LDAC codec with Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification
  • “Hi-Res Audio” and “Hi-Res Audio Wireless” standards
  • Stunning lighting displays
  • Bluetooth 5.3, USB-A, Aux-in
  • 40 RMS setting

Tech Review – Edifier MF200 Portable Tabletop Bluetooth Speaker

Bluetooth speakers come in all shapes and size be it large or small but when it comes to portable options it is not often you see them built with high quality materials like the latest from Edifier which we have been testing out the last while. Not only that the presentation is excellent and you get a protective cover to keep it safe when not in use which is another bonus and again I have not seen such at all the speakers I have reviewed and to top it off it sounds great too.

The built quality of this speaker is fantastic with a cold to touch feel elegant slim design and touch capacitive buttons for controls which is housed in aluminium alloy which has a nice bit of weight to it but not too heavy and again it will not move around on your table or bedside locker for example, there is also rubber footing to keep it in place and from me testing at max volume it did not shift once and also no distortion to the sound either.

On the front we have a nice grille and to the right is the touch control which work well also on the right is your power on/off dial which has a light that emits from it to show your status and looks cool. On the left side is you AUX input and USB-C port for charging. The stereo acoustic system is composed of two full-range units, together with the well-tuned one-piece dual-diaphragm low-frequency radiator, which not only effectively utilizes the cabinet space, but also enhances the driving ability, so that the low-frequency effect is significantly improved.

High-Quality Drivers

With 36mm neodymium iron boron full-range units, full of energy, of compact body and rubber edge diaphragm with special coating, the sound is clear, and the details are abundant, clear and full.

DSP Digital Circuit

All-digital circuit platform and professional audio processing IC, with complete sound source processing and dynamic management, finely control every detail of the sound.

Class D Amplifier

The stereo class D audio power amplifier provides sufficient power for speakers and has the characteristics of low distortion and anti-overload.

Having tested this both on my phone and laptop it packs a punch with nice bass and not distortion when maxed out it easily beats my laptop speakers and it loud it is ideal for your music or movie binges and not only that it looks good and can be basically placed anywhere, even in your travel bag.

Main Features 

  • Up to 10 hours of playback on a single charging
  • Multiple input types as Bluetooth, AUX, and USB-C
  • Easy operation by touch and press
  • High-quality, crisp and mesmerizing music from two 36mm drivers
  • Space saving and easy to carry from the neat and compact design
  • Comfortable feel and touch from selected materials and quality assembly

Tech Review – Edifier WH500 headphones

The Edifier WH500 headphones are the latest on offer from the company at an affordable price and at first look I did not think these would sound good and I was totally wrong. Why you might ask well small cups and thin bands just remind me of office headsets and do not provide decent audio well let me tell you these give an excellent audio experience they are comfortable, super light and gave me a little nudge not to judge a book by its cover, however coming from Edifier I knew they would not sound terrible but they just excelled in my opinion.

OK so these are packed with features as expected with access to the Edifier Connect app which for me is important with headphones, there is a safety level here to to conserve your ears which again is important and has been in the media of late but this does not take away from the great audio experience you will find here, there is also good battery life to be found with up to 40 hours and based on my test it was around 39 max volume which is still good, you have fast charging which gives you around 6 hours playback in 10 mins which is pretty impressive and it takes 2 hours to fully charge the headphones.

Powered with 30mm drivers these do pack a punch and better than I anticipated and with access to the app enhances the experience with good bass, highs lows and mids and no distortion with that said you have other options in the app to which can also see in the video review below. No lag latency was noted either during testing and calls also very good both ends.

Overall with all the options in the app seen below makes these a good headset and one to watch if you like the small cups approach, for me I never took a shine to such but this pair has changed my mind.

 

Main Features:

    • Personalize EQ and select various music modes via Edifier Connect APP.
    • 2hrs fully charged for 40hrs music playtime.
    • Fast charging: 6hrs playback in just 10mins.
    • 30mm dynamic driver
    • Double protection for safe hearing: Volume less than 85dB and a cut off timer
  • Foldable and lightweight design. Ideal for daily use and travel.

Tech Review – Edifier W240TN earbuds

With a new style at hand here from Edifier these piston inspired designed earbuds as they have called them drew some attention and not only this it is nice to see a new design of earbuds as overall the design element like mobile phones is getting boring now so it was good to see something that looks different and coming in a cool case with an LED light up front was also a good move so how did these fair out after testing them?

The design and looks are good as mentioned and they fit really well they do stand out and have a nice silver accent on the tips which is plastic like the whole earbud but this does not make them uncomfortable either they fit well in the ears and stay put and of course you should ensure you have the right tips so do check them all out for your best fit.

Edifier W240TN – techbuzzireland

The case has borrowed a nice LED effect up front like the Neo Buds Pro we reviewed which again is an excellent pair of earbuds so do check out that review too and see how they done, On the tips you have buttons which is an arguable debate of which is best and I prefer these bit no problem using touch sensitive earbuds and for controlling these they worked really well and have been responsive at all times.

There is app access folks yes that’s right Edifier Connect and great to see and works well and has improved with an update during my test period check out more on that in the video review below. Below is an idea of what you will see in the app and how the UI looks. Battery life is decent here too and good all round and realistic to their claims from my testing.

When it comes to sound these do well again and only expected from Edifier overall without going into the usual definitions these for me passed the test and again at the price point you can’t complain decent volume nice bass and of course the app can help you along and has a gaming mode for those want something  more.. Check the video for more and let us know if you have these and what you think.

The W240TN also includes a range of ergonomic features. For those who lead a busier life,  listening to music in the gym or whilst they’re out for a run, the buds are IP55 certified –  meaning they are water resistant and sweat proof – and feature Edifier’s impressive AI call  noise cancellation technology, which allows users to enjoy clear and life-like call audio  without external noise interfering. To ensure your safety whilst listening to your favourite  artists or calling an old friend, the W240TN also comes with an optional ‘Ambient Mode’  designed to allow environmental sounds (like car engines, tannoy callouts or dogs barking)  to seep through into your listening.

Rugged yet trustworthy, the metallic design carries the legacy of the TWS1 Pro and  the finished product speaks volumes for Edifier’s pursuit of style. The result has an iconic  profile that balances modern lines with a retro, almost 80s-like character; think Robocop  meets Blade Runner 2049.
