Bang & Olufsen Beoplay HX – Premium Over-Ear Wireless Bluetooth Headphones, Active Noise Cancelling, 40 Hours Battery, 6 Microphones, Headset for Work with Carrying case - Black Anthracite

I’ve had these headphones for 2 years and 3 months now and I am very impressed with them. They’re not noise cancelling but I don’t really care about that. I do care about sound quality and the Beoplay HX does not disappoint. The sound is crisp, balanced and loud without being annying. I wear these to the gym and put them through a few sweaty work outs every week and over 2 years on, they haven’t flinched. The icing on the cake is the stunning retro looks which I really love. It is true that you get what you pay for and I’d say if you have the budget, just go for these fabulously engineered headphones. You won’t be disappointed.

Incredible sound, I find them very comfortable very lightweight. The sound quality is superb but a little lacking in sub bass, compared to the Sony xm4 which have an incredible sub base sound. The overall sound is absolutely superb with the Sony, but I love the look of the Bangs They are as classy as they get. I do find that the B & O app doesn't really give you any real creativity. I would much prefer a traditional, graphic equaliser with sliders and not the preset dial thing, I like to be able to turn up the sub bass to give me that moving almost undetectable, feeling you get with good quality, very low bass (Sony xm4) does this so well.. I do have B & O Tower speakers at home and they sound superb, but they to suffer with a little lack of bass I don't think I would've paid £400 for these. I think £265 is enough I don't think you can go wrong with these at all. I have listened to a lot of audiophile tracks on Amazon Prime and they are absolutely incredible, especially playing classical, you can hear every stroke of the violin and the intake of breath from the performers.. I have an update on these incredible headphones, I have managed to tune them just right for a full subbase experience, I left these running for a few hours with a 5hz to 20hz sloping signal going through these at full volume, and I can tell you that the drivers seem to have improved the bass response, I have heard something like this been done before with speakers and it’s true, they need to be worn in a little bit

The sound is absolutely brilliant and the battery life is extremely good.

I love these headphones, they are comfy to wear and the sound is brilliant. With the app you have loads of different options on how you like your music to sound. The colour (timber) is lovely. There is just one thing that is a bit annoying… the volume up and down, you have to put your finger on the ear cup and swirl it around to operate the volume and it is so hard to get to the right volume, also to skip to the next song is a swipe with your finger on the ear cup which also does not respond very well, sometimes you have to swipe 3 or 4 times to get it to work. I wish it had a one button operation like my old Marshalls. Other than that they are great headphones.

I bought these in a sale and got them for around £300 instead of the usual price. After using them for a while I would definitely say the sale price is “getting your moneys worth” but at the normal price, I’d understand if someone said they were disappointed. I work as a mechanic in a workshop environment, it’s always noisy and the headphones get bashed about a bit. I’ve owned them for two months now and have hit them, scraped them and dropped them against all sorts of car components and I’m very impressed by the complete lack of damage. The noise cancellation is okay, I wouldn’t say it’s absolutely amazing. Anything noisier than a hand dryer and you can hear it as if you’re not wearing the headphones, but for commuting or general use, it’s fine. I am overall impressed and would recommend them, the battery life is pretty impressive but the app is a bit clunky and a bit of a let down.

Bought as used "Very Good" Unit was grubby and looked like it had been handed around a 6 year olds party after the jam doughnut course. The controls didnt work on the unit. Sound was nice, but at full volume (albeit whatever preset it was on) disappointingly low. On reflection top of the range Sony or Sennheisers would have been a better choice than base B & O..... Still disappointing and not happy with the quality checks and lack of a little cleaning before re selling. Now the refund of just south of £300 is looking to take 14 days plus. Not cool at best, immoral at worst.

Absolutely perfect sound! Couldn’t be more pleased, quality manufacture and audio

I was so excited and looking forward to receiving my headphones, they are very nice looking, love the design. The sound quality of great and crisp. However, I can barely notice any obvious difference when noise cancellation isn’t on, considering they retail for £549, you’d think it would be incredible. They are very nice headphones though so I’m keeping them for the aesthetics (that’s really why I bought them)
