Ever since the Bragi Dash was released back in 2015, we have seen a growing trend towards truly wireless earphones. Nearly all the major brands are on board now with Apple and their AirPods and Bose with the SoundSport Free both of which cost well over £150 Conversely, low-cost Chinese makers have released copies too,…
Rock Jaw is a small British company that was established in 2012 and have developed a reputation for high-quality affordable earphones that are designed and engineered in the UK. Alfa Genus V2 is the middle of the range option costing £39.99 for the none microphone option, they also have the Clarito which is just £24.99,…
I reviewed the excellent Sudio Vasa BLÅ back in 2016. At the time they offered a designer look, premium build quality for a reasonable price tag of £69. Sudio have now followed this model up with the Tre, which are priced at £79 but you can get them with 15% off if you use the…
I personally use headphones for a couple of hours a day, primarily at the gym. The problem here is that I sweat a lot, and I am just generally a bit clumsy. Wired headphones always snag and break. Any headphone with electronics like controls always dies eventually. Wireless ones inevitably get lost or put through…
Dodocool is another budget brand that sells peripherals on Amazon. The first of the two products they sent is a pair of Bluetooth wireless headphones. Each earpiece is quite large, but they include a large bendable ear loop that goes over your ears. This creates a very secure fit in my case, they create a…
With the growing number of phones ditching the 3.5mm port finding a good pair of Bluetooth earphones has become essential for anyone that appreciates good quality audio. From a personal perspective, Bluetooth devices are plagued by problems you don’t get with wired options. Getting a comfortable fit is the biggest issue I find, a lot…
The Blue Sadie headphones I reviewed last week set the new standard for headphones that I have reviewed, their sound quality was superb and the built-in amplifier was surprisingly useful. Priced at around £389.99 they were not something that is going to appeal to the masses, regardless of how good they are. Today I have…
Blue is not a brand that I would normally associate with premium headphones, but they do have strong credentials with audio in the form of their universally praised microphones. Their entry into the headphone market is an interesting one, as they are jumping straight into the upper mid and high-end market. Their flagship product called…
Sudio is a Swedish brand that has a strong focus on developing fashionable looking headphones for both in ear and on ear. I previously enjoyed the Vasa Blå and today I have the Regent, which are over the head, on-ear headphones. Priced at a reasonable £119 the Regent not only boasts a sleek ultramodern appearance…
Following our review of the excellent 1MORE E1001 earphones, we have been sent a sample of the Brainwavs B200 earphones/IEMs. Brainwavs are another relatively new Chinese brands producing high-quality audio products at affordable prices. All their earphones seem to be well received on Amazon, and they are also very popular on enthusiast forums such as…
1MORE are a completely new brand to me, but apparently, they are making some waves win the audio world with their affordable triple driver E1001 in-ear headphones. Priced at £99.99 they are still expensive compared to your standard cheap brand you might buy off Amazon, for example, the excellent but poorly built SoundMagic E10. Unlike…
I have reviewed quite a few wireless earphones this year, and most of them have been in the budget end of the market. This week I have been reviewing the new Bose SoundSport Pulse earphones which cost a hefty £169.00 making them one of the most expensive wireless earphones on the market. These are not…
