Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2 review: confident over-ear cans

The second-gen Aonic 50 headphones deliver more battery and a confident sound – at an equally confident asking price

Confident sound with considerable user-customisation ; Comfortable to wear for long periods ; Decent battery life

Not the most powerful noise-cancelling (ANC) ; High price and considerable competition ; Wind tear can be an ANC bother

If you're looking for well-made headphones with top quality sound and high-res audio compatibility the Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2 are a confident pair of over-ears that deliver audio with gusto – and add a little extra thanks to the Spatializer and...

Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2 review: glorious wireless headphones with top-end features and sound, but OK ANC

Shure's second-generation over-ears are great all-rounders

Supreme wired and wireless connectivity options ; Myriad EQ presets ; Outstanding spatial audio options

A little heavy over time ; Only average active noise cancellation ; Occasional treble-heaviness

Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2 offer the gamut of connectivity – 3.5mm and USB-C wired audio (take note, iPhone 15 owners) plus all the top Bluetooth codecs for wireless listening – in a beautifully crafted, demure build. In fact, they're good across the board,...

Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2 review: An audiophile's dream ANC headphones

With Shure's approach to impeccable sound joining with noise cancelling, surely it's a marriage made in heaven?

Great battery life ; Shure sound is enjoyable - especially with the Spatializing feature ; Hi-Res audio support - wired and wireless ; Comfortable to wear and solid build ; Multi-point Bluetooth

They're not cheap ; Noise cancelling is better, but not amazing ; Wind-tearing noise when outdoors

Shure gets a lot right with the Aonic 50 Gen 2. The improved battery life is fantastic, as is the Bluetooth performance. They deliver better - but not perfect - ANC, and have great sound. Perfect for the at-home music listener.

Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2 review

Everyday studio-quality headphones that fall short for daily use

Excellent audio quality ; Premium design ; Very comfortable ; Reasonably good battery

Poor ANC ; Terrible microphone ; No wear detection ; EQ only over Bluetooth

The Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2 headphones offer incredible, studio-worthy audio performance, great comfort and a premium build. The companion app also gives you access to a solid EQ and various spatial modes, making these headphones great for listening to...

Shure AONIC 50 Gen 2 Wireless Headphones: Review

Shure took an already good wireless noise cancelling headphone in the AONIC 50 and improved it without raising the price or cutting corners. It's well worth a look. Shure took an already good wireless noise cancelling headphone in the AONIC 50 and...

With so much competition in the wireless headphone category, the Shure AONIC 50 Gen 2 needed to offer something above and beyond to really stand out.

Shure AONIC 50 GEN 2 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones review - The Gadgeteer

The Shure AONIC 50 GEN 2 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones are very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. They have good adjustability and the sound reproduction is clear with no noticeable distortion. Audio for calls is great and this has...

It feels like a quality build ; Nice features ; Good noise canceling ; Very clear phone calls ; Nice companion app

Needs more range and presence in the low-frequency (This is a personal taste issue)
