Noise-canceling technology, once reserved for big, expensive headphones, is now part of the basic arsenal of any self-respecting in-ear headphone. Including the most affordable models, as demonstrated by Mobvoi.
ANC Earbuds are quite simply the cheapest wireless noise canceling headphones on the market, claims Mobvoi. And given the offer for this type of product, the manufacturer is probably not wrong: it must be said that these headphones cost 59.99 euros. To be compared with much more expensive models, such as the AirPods Pro, and even the Ear(1) from Nothing which are billed at 99 euros…
Featherweight and light price
For this price, Mobvoi provides headphones suitable for sports since they are IPX5 certified (water and sweat resistance). They weigh only 5 grams, a real featherweight that will not be felt in the ears! The battery life is 4.5 hours when noise reduction is activated. By using the case, the autonomy increases to 21 hours.
The headphones incorporate a button that allows you to control music playback, calls and launch the smartphone assistant. You can also say ” Hey Tico to activate the wizard! And audio controls, only in English, are available to manage the music, useful when playing sports.
The button can also be used to switch from one mode to another: silent, transparency or deactivation of the ANC. The two microphones are used to analyze and reduce ambient noise, as well as to improve voice clarity during calls. It will nevertheless be necessary to test these ANC Earbuds, because often on this type of inexpensive product the noise reduction is quite limited. Nevertheless, given the asking price, it will be difficult to be too demanding.
