Our Summary
Product Strengths
- Gorgeous design and fantastic build quality with premium materials, like titanium, aluminum, lambskin leather, and cowhide leather
- Extremely comfortable and lightweight (around 323-333 grams), with oval-shaped earcups suitable for larger ears for long listening periods
- Intuitive controls, including a mix of touch and physical controls, like responsive touchpads and tactile dials for precise volume and ANC adjustments
- Sound quality is well-balanced and versatile, making them suitable for various music genres, with particularly good performance for classical music, podcasts, and rock
- Amazing noise cancellation performance, effectively blocking out mid- and treble-range noises
Product Considerations
- Very high retail price
- Earcups are not very deep
- Not very portable due to a bulky design
- A heavier side, which can develop a little bit of strain on the back of the neck
- The Bang & Olufsen app does not work well, spending a long time trying to connect to the H95 most of the time
Comparisons (according to reviewers)
- Vs Focal Bathys: The Focal Bathys is cheaper and better in sound quality
- Vs Bose QC45s: The Bose QC45s are a little bit more effective in cancelling the high end of mid-range frequencies that you would get from a busy cafe
- Vs AirPods Max: The H95 manages to separate all the layers very beautifully, the AirPods Max is not on par
- Vs Bowers & Wilkins PX8: The PX8 is more muffled
- Vs Cambridge Audio P100: The P100 has more clarity and crisp sound to that treble without having that sibilance
Takeaway: If you want a luxurious pair of headphones with amazing build quality and very good noise cancellation, the Beoplay H95 could be a good option. The sound quality is great, and they are comfortable to wear for long listening sessions.
