Cambridge Audio Melomania Touch

The Cambridge Audio Melomania Touch earphones offer excellent sound, but the experience of using them can frustrate

Entertaining, melodic sound ; Premium looks ; Long battery life ; Visually distinctive app

Inconsistent touch controls ; Pairing with device can go AWOL

The Melomania Touch are one of the best-sounding budget earbuds, but issues with the touch controls diminish the user experience. They come recommended (just) and here’s hoping whenever the 2 nd model appears that the issues are rectified.

Cambridge Audio Melomania Touch review: Touchy feely

Is the follow up to the surprisingly stellar Melomania 1 any good? It's all about touch control this time around, which brings positives and negatives

Great sound ; Faux leather case is lovely ; New app is attractive and easy to use ; Good battery life

Connectivity issues at times ; Too easy to accidentally touch the touch-sensitive areas

After loving the sound that came from the original Cambridge Audio Melomania 1, we had high hopes for the follow-up pair. There's no denying, the audio from them is super. It's vibrant, punchy and hugely enjoyable, but the earbuds suffer from...

Cambridge Audio Melomania Touch

Great value for money on its launch, Cambridge Audio followed up its Melomania 1 wireless earbuds with the Melomania Touch. Thankfully, the rather odd, bullet-shaped earpieces that protruded from the ears and didn't feel very secure have been ditched...

The Cambridge Audio Melomania Touch definitely have the looks, but do they have the desirable "British sound," the company prides itself on? We find out.

Cambridge Audio Melomania Touch Review

Strong audio performance with rich bass and crisp highs ; App has adjustable EQ and selectable Bluetooth codecs ; Secure fit ; Water-resistant build

Sensitive on-ear controls are easy to accidentally trigger ; Light on extra features
