In the ever-growing world of wireless headphones, standing out is no easy feat—yet Edifier continues to impress with its latest over-ear set, the W800BT Pro. Having tested them this week, we can confidently say this model offers more than just good looks.
Design & Build Quality
Straight out of the box, the W800BT Pro oozes thoughtful design. The foldable construction makes for a compact carry, while the overall build quality feels solid and well-executed. Edifier’s design team has clearly focused on premium styling without venturing into premium pricing territory. The materials used here are not just comfortable—they suggest durability that will hold up to daily wear and travel.
Comfort That Lasts
Comfort is another area where these headphones excel. They sit securely over the ear, avoiding the common pinch or pressure some sets impose after prolonged use. The lightweight feel, combined with plush ear pads, makes them ideal for extended listening sessions—whether you’re commuting, working, or just enjoying a film.
Sound & Noise Cancellation
Of course, headphones live or die by their audio performance—and here, Edifier truly delivers. The 40mm dynamic drivers paired with a titanium-coated diaphragm offer a full-bodied soundstage with crisp mids and satisfying low-end punch. Even more impressive is the hybrid active noise cancellation, which effectively blocks out ambient distractions, bringing a level of immersion that’s genuinely surprising at this price point. In the office, on the street or in the garden, what it does is very impressive.
Battery & Connectivity
Battery life is another high point. With up to 45 hours of playback time (with ANC off), and a quick 10-minute charge delivering up to 5 hours of use, the W800BT Pro easily keeps pace with a busy lifestyle. Bluetooth 5.4 provides reliable connectivity and the added bonus of dual-device pairing—a feature typically reserved for higher-end models.
Final Thoughts
At £49.99, the Edifier W800BT Pro punches well above its weight. From its sleek design and all-day comfort to its standout ANC and excellent sound performance, it’s a serious contender for anyone seeking premium features without the premium price tag. If you’re in the market for over-ear headphones that deliver across the board, Edifier has made your decision a whole lot easier.
Verdict: 4.5/5
A top-value headphone set that doesn’t cut corners. Perfect for everyday audiophiles, frequent travelers, and remote workers alike.
