Dual Noise Sensor Technology

Dual microphones – one feed-forward and one feed-back – on the surface of the headphones catch more of the ambient sounds of your surroundings, whether it’s in-flight noise, city traffic or office chatter.

HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1e

Having caught the ambient sound, the dedicated HD Noise Cancelling Processor QN1e gets to work. It not only cancels significantly more noise across almost all frequencies but also uses less power.

Perfect for TV shows, movies and more

Stable, reliable Bluetooth® connectivity

Optimised antenna design

The placement of the headphones’ Bluetooth® antenna has been optimised to ensure a wider coverage. This helps keep the signal strong for uninterrupted streaming.

With 3 sizes of triple comfort earbuds and 4 sizes of long hybrid silicone rubber earbuds included, you can find the perfect fit for your ears to maximise sound quality and minimise outside noise. A USB-C charging cable is also included in the box.

Handy magnetic charging case

Put your noise cancelling headphones back into the charging case and they’ll nestle into place with a satisfying snap thanks to a magnetic interior. A USB-C cable lets you recharge the case quickly and easily, ready for another day’s listening.
