Review: Edifier WH950NB

Price: £152 from fave.co/41t9pCS

The Edifier WH950NB Bluetooth wireless headphone looks great, is comfortable to wear for long stretches, has easy-to-use physical buttons and delivers solid active noise cancellation. Unfortunately, it’s also a headphone that won’t deliver its best performance unless you’re using a Bluetooth playback device that supports the LDAC codec.

For most people, it won’t perform at a level that’s comparable to other quality headphones in its price range. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t deliver good sound at the lower-resolution SBC codec, but there’s no good reason to spend £152 on a headphone that won’t take full advantage of what your playback device can deliver.
