Xiaomi has announced the global availability of the Xiaomi 15 and has also announced the new Xiaomi Buds 5 Pro, which comes in two variants, the standard model and a new WiFi model which uses Snapdragon Sound Technology Suite with…
It’s been a while since I last reviewed a Huawei Freebuds model. The Freebuds 5i left a lasting impression, becoming my go-to earbuds despite having pricier options available. The FreeBuds Pro 2 and the original FreeBuds Pro were also standout products, though battery life was a concern with the Pro 2. Having missed out on…
Back in November 2024, I reviewed the QCY H3 Pro ANC headphones and was impressed at how good they were at the affordable price point of under £40.

The Edifier NeoDots are the first earbuds from Edifier I have reviewed this year. The last pair I reviewed were the Edifier NeoBuds Pro 2 this time last year.

Edifier launched the new W320TN open-fit ANC earbuds at the start of September, which appear to be the successor to the W220T which was launched last year. These have a semi-open fit design which lacks the silicon eartips most earbuds have, and this gives them a similar design to Apple Airpods. This style of earbud…
