QCY, a global leader in wireless audio industry, today unveiled the H3S, the latest evolution of its popular H3 headphone line. Building on the strengths of its predecessor — powerful noise cancellation, immersive sound, and all-day comfort — the new H3S introduces meaningful upgrades in ANC, audio performance, endurance, and ergonomics to set a new benchmark in flagship headphones at an accessible price point. We have been testing these out for a few weeks and they deliver..
Flagship-Grade ANC & Call Clarity
The H3S features adaptive –56 dB active noise cancellation, powered by a 7-microphone array (6 ANC mics) and a DNN Neural Network Algorithm. This intelligent system reduces subway noise by up to 92% and filters 85% of background chatter. For calls, three anti-wind microphones combined with the DNN algorithm improve clarity by up to 80%, even in crowded or windy conditions. Multiple ANC modes — including Commute, Indoor, and Anti-Wind — ensure a natural, pressure-free listening experience in any environment.
Studio-Quality Dual-Driver Audio
With its dual-driver architecture, the H3S combines a 40 mm titanium-coated diaphragm for powerful mids and bass with a 13 mm tweeter for crisp highs — perfect for music lovers. Certified for Hi-Res Audio and Hi-Res Wireless with LDAC support, the H3S covers a frequency range of 20 Hz–40 kHz, delivering every detail — from the punch of EDM to the spacious textures of orchestral scores.
Ultra-Light Comfort, Extreme Endurance
Weighing just 240 g, the H3S is built for long sessions. A 13° angled speaker mesh improves projection and passive isolation, while deeper earcups fit larger ears without pressure. Soft protein-leather cushions and a padded, adjustable headband ensure lasting comfort. Rotatable, foldable earcups and an IPX5 water-resistance rating make the H3S equally ready for commutes, workouts, or long-haul travel however no carry case is given with them.
On battery performance, it leads the category with up to 102 hours of playback (58 with ANC on). And for those always on the go, just a quick 10-minute charge powers up an impressive 7 hours of listening, keeping music flowing without interruption. Real time battery life will vary per users settings and this is the norm for all earbuds and headphones.
Smarter Connectivity and Controls
The H3S is designed for seamless everyday use. It supports Bluetooth 6.0 with dual-device pairing, enabling smooth switching between phone and laptop. Users can also choose between wireless and Type-C wired listening, with ANC available in both modes.
The QCY App enhances the experience with customizable EQ, Adaptive ANC, Transparency mode, and dedicated Music, Movie, and Gaming profiles. OTA firmware updates ensure the headphones continue to improve over time. On-device controls provide quick access to playback, calls, ANC modes, and a low-latency gaming mode.

The ANC performance is a great feature on the ES850NB. With a rating of up to -45db, indoors you can not hear a thing and mostly the same outdoors.

Knowles Corporation a leading manufacturer of specialty electronic components, including high performance capacitors, radio frequency (“RF”) filters, advanced medtech microphones, and balanced armature (BA) speakers, today announced that Baseus has selected Knowles BA drivers for its flagship open-ear clip wireless earbuds, the Baseus Inspire XC1. This marks the first time Knowles BA technology has been integrated into an open-ear wireless design, representing a significant breakthrough in personal audio innovation.
Revolutionary Hybrid 2-Way Sound Engine
The Baseus Inspire XC1 features a pioneering hybrid 2-way sound engine that pairs a Knowles BA with a 12mm dynamic driver in each earbud. This distinctive combination addresses longstanding acoustic challenges in open-ear designs while delivering crystal-clear sound that rivals traditional in-ear models. Tuned with Baseus’s adaptive SuperBass 3.0 technologies, these open-ear headphones deliver full-range, high-fidelity sound—just as the artist intended. This distinctive combination addresses longstanding acoustic challenges in open-ear designs while delivering crystal clear sound that rivals traditional in-ear models.
Open-ear wireless devices sit outside the ear canal, allowing ambient sound to naturally coexist with the audio experience while providing benefits such as comfort during extended wear, reduced occlusion effect, increased battery capacity, and enhanced situational awareness. However, open-ear designs have historically faced acoustic challenges, including sound leakage, low-frequency drop-off due to a lack of seal, and difficulties in delivering full-spectrum audio.
The Inspire XC1 overcomes these limitations through its sophisticated acoustic system, which combines the precision of Knowles’ miniaturized BAs with the power of a 12mm dynamic driver. This results in a frequency response that captures both subtle sonic textures and a dynamic range that single-driver designs cannot achieve. The dynamic woofer enhances low-frequency response, while the exclusive Knowles BA tweeter delivers exceptional clarity in the mid and high frequencies.
“This collaboration represents a significant milestone for both open-ear wireless audio and our BA technology,” said Jon Kiachian, President of MedTech and Specialty Audio at Knowles Corporation. “This is the first time our BAs have been integrated into an open-ear design, and Baseus has demonstrated remarkable innovation in addressing the unique acoustic challenges of this format. The result showcases exactly what becomes possible when our cutting-edge driver technology meets thoughtful product design—an open-ear audio experience that reveals all the nuances and details of music that conventional open-ear designs simply cannot reproduce.”
Designed for Every Lifestyle
These revolutionary earbuds are ideal for users who want to listen to music while remaining aware of their surroundings. Whether you’re working out at the gym, taking phone calls while walking the street, snowboarding, or skating with music, wearing a clip-on earbud all day at the office for quick calls, or working and studying in a coffee shop, the Baseus Inspire XC1 delivers uncompromising audio quality without sacrificing situational awareness.
Knowles BA drivers enable unprecedented sound performance for their size, allowing Baseus to deliver professional-grade audio quality while maintaining the comfort and situational awareness benefits that make open-ear designs appealing to tech-savvy professionals. The high sensitivity of Knowles BAs also facilitates improved hearing personalization while maximizing power efficiency in the compact form factor.
The Baseus Inspire XC1 leverages Knowles BA technology to achieve the higher frequencies necessary for optimal audio performance, unlocking intricate musical details while preserving natural tonal balance. Advanced features include Dolby Spatial Audio, Hi-Res certification, LDAC codec support, and a leak-proof acoustic design that positions the earbuds among the world’s best-sounding open-ear audio devices.
“When developing our Inspire XC1 open-ear clip model, we needed a technology partner that could help us solve fundamental acoustic challenges that have limited this category,” said Shiyou He, Baseus Founder and CEO. “Knowles BA drivers were the breakthrough we needed, allowing us to achieve frequency response and detail that would be hard with conventional single-driver open-ear designs. This collaboration enables us to create the first open-ear earbuds that can compete with premium in-ear models on audio quality.”
The Edifier ES850NB wireless over-ear headphones combine sleek design with powerful performance, featuring Hi-Res Audio certification, 40mm titanium-coated drivers, and support for LDAC, AAC, and SBC codecs.
With upgraded ANC up to -45dB, AI-powered call clarity, and up to 92 hours of battery life, they’re built for immersive, all-day listening. Lightweight and foldable with skin-friendly cushions and a travel case, the ES850NB offers comfort, portability, and smart features like touch-to-chat, multipoint connectivity, and seamless control via the Edifier ConneX app and TempoHub.
From rich leather-like textures to precision-engineered components, each product in the ES Series is designed to evoke a sense of timeless luxury while delivering the clarity, depth, and detail that audiophiles expect. “ES” also stands for “Edifier Sound”, reinforcing the brand’s long-standing dedication to high-fidelity audio and deeply immersive sound experiences.
Recently we checked out the Edifier ES60 Bluetooth speaker which sits nicely on my desk today so do check that out and if you have any questions on the new headphones drop em below.
The SoundPEATS Air5 Pro True Wireless Earbuds are their latest to hit the shelf and we have been testing these out the last while and it is of course now time to tell you how we got on and with SoundPEATS being a regular here we where impressed at what you get for the price.
The design is familiar here but keeping in line with their product line-up with nice bronze accents to finish them which looks well they have a small stem and look clean and do not stick out which is also nice and do not protrude from the ears much.
They are light fit securely with the right tips and block alot of outside noise out of the box before you even play around with the EQ in their app which we look at along with the settings in the video review below.
The controls work well and can be customised to your needs which is nice and all the features you expect present and both earbuds offer commands and it is then up to you as to what settings you apply.
We again see Hi-Res LDAC with Snapdragon sound here which is good to see at their pricepoint making way for a great audio experience overall with no issues to report, during my usual testing loop no tinny sound noted no lag latency with LE Audio, and aptX Lossless for seamless gaming and streaming which is a win for anyone. With 10mm composite drivers ,highs lows and mids all good and really good bass but the EQ app is where it is at where you can modify to your needs and turn the notch up even more. You also get AI Adaptive Noise Cancellation cuts noise by up to -55dB and the ANC is quite good. Not forgetting transparency mode and normal mode.
We have also multi-point connection which is now a standard these days and this also works well as my reader know I work with a laptop and phone all day and it is standard procedure to test this out and all good including calls. Battery life is good but will vary on the users settings as always the case but expect up to 37 hours without ANC and a ten minutes charge gives you two hours more use. There is also an IPX5 rating so can we worn outdoors for you commute..

The ROSESELSA EARFREE-i5 TWS Earbuds Hybrid ANC Headphones are the latest earbuds to cross my desk and for it being a first from the company and looking at the specs on the box alone.
Presentation here is excellent and a great first impression for any brand in my opinion and what you get in the box is also a good start with extras on board they have hit the right notes here.
The Design is a standard affair however the case they come in is a different story it is not a cheap plastic case but a CNC machine finished case that feels premium all round and will protect the earbuds should you drop them.
The fit is great and will not out of ears once the right tips are applied and this is something you should always check regardless and you can also purchase Super NC 200 Memory foam ear tips if you wish though I find the supplied tips just fine after testing for a good period of time.
The sound is the important bit here and it is excellent better than expected to from a new brand here and really impressive with highs lows and mids their EQ app lets you pick the best settings for you and there is gamer mode too so these are for everyone and the volume level is decently loud which is how I like it but I would suggest you go through all the settings and EQs yourself to get the right sound profile for you and you will find it, the controls also work well here to and can be customized to your own taste.
You can pair two devices too with up to 50 hours of battery life and fast charge which for someone like me and many out there who use a phone and laptop all day which is a seamless transfer from one to the other and perfectly suits my needs, and as for the ANC this again is up there with more expensive earbuds out there and will keep you free from outdoor and noise distractions whilst taking in the audio these earbuds offer which is one of the best I have seen at this price.
Check the video below for more and see what you get here with the earbuds and their app it is quite good and something you should put on your list if you are in the market for new earbuds, long is the day now you need to spend over 150-200 quid on them..

The OneOdio Focus A5 Hybrid ANC headphones are a clean to the point pair of cans that look well and have a decent build quality and do not cost a fortune.
The do not have an app or case out of the box but again these are not high end headphones and not targeting that high end market either but with other dangling carrots on the box how so they sound overall without the aid of an app to enhance the listening experience.
The build quality is rather good here to start with which is good and the look good to and kept simple, the cups are soft and so is the headband and can be worn for hours not clamping your head either.
The control also kept simple here and all one side and the expected features are still here given there is no app to give oyu more you can access your voice assistant skip and reverse tracks and control the volume you can also control your calls with these too and they sound ok.
The audio is fine for the money but not what it says on the tin with LDAC support and will not win an audiophile over anytime soon, they have 40mm drivers but you need more than this to use LDAC and this did not come across at all and with no EQ the brand did themselves no favour here and there is other brand here with headphones and earbuds that do come with an app and sound better.
They are loud and sound OK though to be fair if you just want a simple turn on and pop on your head and away you go pair of headphones these are fo you the ANC is OK but not the best I have seen and they offer really good battery life and given the marketing of LDAC etc they hit that target also not having and EQ settings.
Overall they are comfortable with simple to use controls and kept clean and simple and there is plenty out there who just want that in a pair of headphones without all the fuss.
