Microsoft Surface Headphones 2 review: noise cancelling done right

 

Microsoft Surface Headphones 2 are a little bit better and a lot more affordable… That's much more like it

Microsoft Surface Headphones 2 review

 

“Microsoft steps up by pricing down”

Outstanding noise-cancelling ; Big, controlled and detailed sound ; Comfortable even over extended periods

Tentative high-frequency reproduction

Sonic improvements and a stiff price reduction make Microsoft’s wireless active noise-cancellers a much more mainstream proposition than before

Microsoft Surface Headphones 2 review: Now a competitor

 

Microsoft's first-gen Surface Headphones were surprisingly good but also way overpriced. The Surface Headphones 2's lower price takes them from good to great.

Well-priced ; Great sound ; Excellent controls ; Good noise cancellation

Disappointing battery life ; Distortion at higher volumes

The Surface Headphones 2 may not be a major upgrade over the original, but they offer some small but notable improvements and cost less.

Microsoft Surface Headphones 2 review: perfect for work-from-home life

 

A lower price makes all the difference.

Dial controls remain terrific ; Improved battery life ; Excellent multipoint Bluetooth support

Audio quality is decent, but not on par with Sony ; Headband can cause discomfort during extended use ; Headphones can’t fold for more compact carrying

Microsoft’s Surface Headphones 2 cost much less than the company’s original noise-canceling headphones. They retain the intuitive dial controls, good noise cancellation, and now have improved battery life. Plus, they come in matte black.

Integrated and in-line microphone. Companion app with graphic EQ and presets. Adjustable active noise cancelling feature. Decent leakage performance. Excellent, easy-to-use controls. Comfortable, lightweight design.

Bass-heavy sound profile. Bass and treble delivery varies. Bulky design. High wireless latency on PC and iOS. Sub-par integrated microphone.

The Microsoft Surface Headphones 2 are satisfactory for mixed use. Thanks to their great, adjustable active noise cancelling, you can choose how much sound you want to block out, which is great when you're on the move. They're also comfortable, and...

Microsoft Surface Headphones 2 review

 

Dynamic in sound and functionality, the Microsoft Surface Headphones 2 is a noise-canceller that silences the skeptics.

If you’re looking for the absolute best noise-cancelling experience at a similar price point, then the Sony WH-1000xM3 is an amazing alternative, along with the top-dollar Bose 700. Otherwise, the Surface Headphones 2 can be a rewarding purchase for...
