Marshall Major IV review: A minor masterpiece

These on-ear headphones do absolutely everything right - improving on the series predecessor with truly epic battery life.

Comfortable and light ; Ridiculous battery life ; Great sound

No active noise-cancelling ; Wireless charging can be a bit fiddly to get right

If you're looking for some lightweight headphones with sonic clout, Marshall's on-ear cans hit the mark, with battery life that beggars belief, great style, and impressive sound.

Marshall Major IV review

The Marshall Major IV delivers terrific sound and battery life in a retro package.

Doesn’t support Marshall app or customized sound features ; Mediocre noise isolation ; No carrying case

Marshall Major IV headphone review: On-ear sonic sweetness
