Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT Over-Ear Wireless Headphones, Professional Studio Headphones, Professional Monitor Recording and Mixing Foldable Headphones with Stereo Sound, Bluetooth, Monitor Headphones (Black)

This review is almost after 1.5 years of usage. I owned a pair of audio technica M20X before these headphones, so I was already impressed by the sound quality of these headphones in the wired form however I was slightly apprehensive about how they would perform wireless. Below are the likes and dislikes I have developed over the last 1.5 years.Likes:1. Excellent sound quality: They produce excellent mids and high and adequate bass(not too much of it to interfere with the music). Very clear and accurate sound. Perfect for all types of music but if you're looking for bass heavy headphones, these are not for you2. Build quality: These are built like a tank. Even with my rough usage there are hardly any issues with them. Really sturdy overall.3. Comfort: These are highly comfortable and can easily be worn for long periods of time. It might take being used to if these are your first over the ear headphones.4. Battery life: Quite impressive battery life. They charge to full in about 4 hours or less and with real world usage they have about 3-4 days of battery.5. Bluetooth connectivity and zero lag: The range on these is pretty good, and there's no noticeable lag even when gaming casually.Dislikes:1. Poor microphone quality: One big issue I realised during the pandemic is how appalling the mic is. Several times people have told me that my voice is too low when I am using the mic on this headphone. So if you want a good mic this doesn't have it.2. Charging mechanism: it doesn't have the type c port for charging which could be an incovenience if your other gadgets are type c compatible. Also there's no fast charging.3. Absence of active noise cancellation: The headphones isolate the noise well but if you're looking for ANC then these headphones don't have it, but given the price(12.5 K INR) at which I bought them, I don't miss it.4. Servicing centres: Although these headphones are really high quality, I am not sure if they have any service centres in India, so if they I am not sure who to reach out toConclusion:These headphones are a really good upgrade over my previous m20X wired headphones and I was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality being so good. So if you're looking to buy a pairs of well built wireless headsets which get the basics rights in terms of sound quality, I can wholeheartedly recommend these, however you'll have to live the poor quality mic.

These are neutral sounding headphones. Sound clarity is exceptional. With these I could now hear minutest sound / instruments with great amount of clarity, which I hadn’t noticed while listening on other pairs I had owned before.Pairing is easy with iPhone (just like any other Cans). Audio Technica app is not great though. It gives basic info related to battery, codecs etc. No equaliser options provided in the app.Noise isolation is poor. These Cans are not meant for noise isolation. If you are particular about this feature, look elsewhere.Battery life is great. I listened to music for about 1 hour a day for couple of weeks since the time I bought the Cans. And I have not used the headphones for the last 2 weeks. The headphones still have 50% left.These are bit heavier than Bose QC or Sony’s. For some, your ears may get hot after a short while (my friend experienced it). My ears extremely comfortable even after listening continuously for over 2 hours.These are one of the best headphones I have listened to so far. They include Sony, Bose, and Sennheiser. If you are looking for noise cancellation / isolation, these are not for you. They let every sound around you filter in. But if you are looking for a good neutral sounding headphones, that sound amazing, brilliant clarity and sound reproduction, Bluetooth and wired, and one that carries a great brand value - this one is for you.

TL;DR Best headphones for the price. Not built for workouts etc. No noise cancellation and it's not a big deal as you might think unless you travel a lot or have an annoying co worker next to you.This is the best headphones i have used under 20k price range. If you really care for sound quality and don't like the hassle of using wires, this is the headphone for you.Now there is a question in many people's mind on sound quality of bluetooth headphones and does the price difference w.r.t it's wired unit justify... I too had the same question but after using it, one thing was very clear that the price difference did justify as the sound was spectacular on both wired and wireless modes.. So that extra money is a premium you would be paying to getting sound clarity like you would be getting on older M50x but without a wire.The headphones produces more crisp tunes with Apple music than Spotify and does have connectivity issues with older macbooks.. But laptops or computers running windows, linux or phones running android or iOS don't have any issues.Comfort is ok but definetely could have been better. Weight of the headphone is ok but it may not be comfortable for everyone so that can be a deal breaker.It comes with a soft pouch and that doesn't protect the headphones at all. Instead buy it's official headphone case from headphone zone.Overall:Sound quality - 4.8/5Comfort - 3.5/5Build Quality- 4/5Noise cancellation - Not applicable

Writing this review after 2 months of using this amazing headphone. Sound quality, you cannot find better sounding headphones in this price bracket. Cristal clear vocals.. like you can hear stuff in your favorite song you never heard before. Bass is punchy not over powering at all, not bleeding into the mids and highs, balanced as it should be.. You will hear your song the way the creator of that song intended to. Built quality is also great, no complaints but just to nit pick I think these are a little heavy price to pay for durability maybe.. lastly.. battery holds up for a week, 4 days if used intensively.. Definitely a no brainer if you want to hear high quality music instead of just overpowered bass and banging your head into the wall at the end of the day.. remember, good headphones take 300 to 500 hrs of burn in time until they reach there true potential..
