Hands on: B&O BeoPlay H4 review

Scandinavian entry-level over-ears

Stylish looks ; Solid, refined bass ; Comfortable

Bass has potential to overwhelm ; Potentially confusing controls ; Poor noise isolation

With a sound signature that's consciously going after the bass-lovers out there, we weren't expecting to like the sound of the BeoPlay H4 headphones as much as we did. Certainly it's a sound that suits some genres more than others, but otherwise this...

B&O Play Beoplay H4

The B&O Beoplay H4 headphones deliver a wonderful Bluetooth audio experience and look particularly good doing it.

Excellent audio performance with bright, detailed highs and deep, rich bass. Exceptionally comfortable over-ear fit. Handsome design with luxurious materials.

Light on accessories.

Purists seeking flat response will generally love the higher frequency signature of the Beoplay H4, but perhaps wish that the deepest bass frequencies were dialed back slightly. Those who value crisp detail in the highs but also appreciate the subtle...

B&O Play Beoplay H4 review: This wireless headphone is sweet and simple

B&O Play's new entry-level (but pricey) wireless over-ear headphone isn't loaded with features, but it's attractively designed, comfortable to wear and sounds very good.

The B&O Play by Bang and Olufsen H4 is a very comfortable, excellent-sounding Bluetooth headphone with decent battery life.

It doesn't come with a carry case and has a small annoying quirk with the power button as well as an expensive price for a headphone with no active noise-cancellation.

While it's not feature loaded, the Beoplay H4's sound quality and comfort level earn it the right to be in the conversation if you're considering a full-size Bluetooth headphone for around $300.

Excellent sound reproduction

Purchased just a week ago. I had to buy a Bluetooth transmitter to pair the phones to my amplifier which was easily connected and effective. There was a slight, even trivial, interference sound when using the Bluetooth transmitter but still it was...
