What we can tell you
The budget end of hybrid cancellation in this line, and one of the least documented entries here: the record holds a form factor, a cancellation type and a connection, and nothing else at all. If active cancellation at the lowest price is the requirement, that is what this is. If you want to compare it against anything on detail, there is no detail here to compare.
What the specifications favour
- Hybrid cancellation at the bottom of the price range
- Over-ear fit rather than in-ear
- The recorded price was under the list figure
What to check before you buy
- Almost no specification is published: no battery, weight, driver or app detail
- Bluetooth only, with no wired mode published
