Oddly there is in the written review that that mentions sound an it looks like it may have overemphasised bass at the expense of upper mid range frequencies. You can find the review here www.tomsguide.com/audio/headphones/dyson-ontrac-headphones-review There isn’t much comment on comfort though as they are heavy at 450g/ 15.9 ounces which , for context, is 65g/2.3 ounces more than the AirPod Max.
Thought it was assumed that wireless noise canceling headphones are not HI-FI and their main marked doesn't care that much (or can't notice that much) about differences in sound quality. I mean, Sony's and Bose's headphones tend to have a LOT of bass that actually sounds kinda bad, but that in these reviews (focused on characteristics aside from SQ) that excessive bass is considered something good. So, even if sound quality had been mentioned, it would have been a very subjective interpretation. Even in "HI-FI" channels subjectivity is still king.
A note on Bluetooth 5.0 - Bluetooth 5.0 is not necessarily worse in sound quality compared to newer versions, but newer versions like Bluetooth 5.1 and 5.2 offer improvements in connectivity, efficiency, and potentially lower latency, which can enhance the overall audio experience. The sound quality primarily depends on the codec used (e.g., SBC, AAC, aptX, LDAC) rather than the Bluetooth version itself. However, newer versions may support advanced codecs and features that improve the listening experience.
@@Tigerex966 No, Bluetooth 5.0 cannot be upgraded to a newer Bluetooth version (e.g., Bluetooth 5.1, 5.2) via a firmware update alone. Bluetooth versions are determined by the hardware capabilities of the Bluetooth chip itself, not just the software or firmware.
@@kevinmcgrath3591 I thought I read somewhere that apple or someone flashed new blue tooth features in software. Meaning each version..1 upgrade may actually be sometimes software not hardware? Unfortunately I forgot this story so IT may not be true.
@@kevinmcgrath3591I know that's correct fir full number updates. But im not simo sure if that's correct in all cases for .1 updates ..but I will take your word for its..🤔👍
have several brands of headphones, Sennheiser momentum, JBL, AirPod pro, Beats fit pro, so I find it difficult to go from paying 100 dollars less for a Sennheiser to paying 500 for a brand without the experience and trust that Sennheiser has, for example.
Can you use a wired setup with cancellation does it have hires Bluetooth codecs are the batteries replaceable down the line like all the other parts making them.easy to repair and eliminating ewaste
I do love the look of these but i also love the momentum 4 which sounds better and has better battery life. The design is impeccable though. The designer should get with nothing and make a nothing headphone. It would mesh with their asthetics nicely.
I reviewed this review. And I highly do not recommend it. You will not learn anything about the sound quality of the headphone, which is it's primary purpose. Otherwise, go for it.
Well, that was seven minutes. I’ll never get back. What did he sound like? It’s like you eating a chocolate muffin or a lot of chocolate muffins and telling me that they’re brown without telling me what they taste like .
What a crap video, these are headphones… do a proper comparison, sound stage, frequency range, etc. You talked more about the noise cancelling and design over audio. SMH
Yea … right Glad I’m not you and those who would think like you lol Had been enjoying my Dyson zone since day ONE preordered at FIRST moment ( all these air pollution and human odor people said they hate smelling those sweat stink from others on the subway and commuting during summertime ) And also the apple mac M1 ? The power / performance :/ cost blow intel away and still no one here to competitive with them Don’t buy first generation eh ?
Dyson has a really bad track record in my book. My V10 Vacum has maximum 10 minutes battery after 3 years. My Dyson fan, I have not been able to get new filters for 2 years. Its also extremly plastic, everything feels like cheap plastic that squeeks whenever it moves. I doubt it will be worth $500. Both Bose and Sony has cheaper alternatives with the best ANC and sound.
Better quality than all the plastic toy junk overpriced Sony / Bose headphones on the market which are junk - I also own the Dyson Zone which allows a wired connection as well amd they do sound very good amd all metal - very little plastic and hefty because they are built like a tank and should be for this price. I also use Focal Celestee - closed back - made in France - non- wireless - focal clear mg - $2,200 - wired made in framce - non-wireless - Focal Bathys - wireless and wired - Sennheiser HD 660S2 - open backs (wired) - Sennheiser HD 800s open backs (wired) and Sennheiser HD 820 - closed back versions of the 800 - all made in France. All combined with a FiiO M17 - dac / dap / amp - AU$2,200 alone
Sound quality and staging is terrible on these, it’s all just mostly for show! Just like the AirPods max Expensive materials on the outside to hide cheaper materials on the inside (drivers)! At price point of 200 - 300 sure! 500 hell to the naw naw naw! Better to buy something form bang & Olufsen or bowers & wilkins with many decades of experience in the game of high end audio products and speakers but even they are no match for the accustic and sound performances of my focal bathys, mark levinson 5909 and dali IO 12s that i have laying around! Not to mention my Audeze LCD-5 and focal stellia with my mcintosh mha200 Keep sound to the big boys dyson and apple! stay in your lane with your vacuums, phones, tablets, and computers! The fact that they say shit about sound proves my point! More like a cashgrab than anything else Ashame that these type of headphones exist and that people are actually stupid to buy them 😂
WORST COMPANY DO NOT BUY FROM THEM YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!! I cannot return my item because they won't pick it up!!!!! They sent it to the wrong address when details were correct!!!! Customer service is awful!!!!! I have opened a case with Paypal and now have to pay for the return myself!!!! Worst online shopping experience ever!!!! AVOID THEM LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!
Review of HEADPHONES without talking about SOUND QUALITY…..
The air purifier headphones had unreal sound quality with specific eq applied , I hope these follow the same sound profile
Thank you Sir
If you came looking for an unbiased opinion forget it!
Thank you, you’re a hero

Indeed
Competitors? Comparisons!?? 😂 …not in a paid for “review” *cough*AD*cough*
Yeah, this was a ridiculous waist of time
And replaceable battery?
does wired use still allow noise cancellation?
what are the hires Bluetooth codecs.
Repairability
Durability.

Hiss sound.
Ear pressure.
More info in modes and eq.
Can it be used and it saved without having a phone app.
welcome to modern tech media
No comments on sound quality vs the competition? 😕
And if fact, it´s one of the most important point for the ones paying such price for premium headphones. Very good point indeed.

SOUND QUALITY is the number one concern in a review of headphones... Do your job..
Hi-FI quality like the Sony ones? Nothing mentions about the sound quality which is basically one of the most important points for premium Headphones

Van a firmware update push out a newer Bluetooth version or features.

They need to make the Dyson branding more subtle
Where the fuck is sound quality check?
so.... do they suck? or blow?
Dyson is being boycotted in the UK from their appalling treatment of workers because £1bn is not enough profit.
Im sticking with my Momentum 4. But it is interesting watching bewcomers bringing interesting products to the scene. Good atempt Dyson.
Terrible review. How was sound quality? How was the noise cancelling?
Gotta wait for MKBHDs review I guess
He's a big Apple and Tesla fanboy. Lmao.
Pretty sure the "Headphone Show" would be a much more reliable source.
But not a Dyson fan boy so his review should be better i am guessing according to your analogy?😊@@rubendhernandez4748
How is transparency mode and phone call quality?
Love that gold tone! These look sweet
I focus on sound quality. How do they sound BTW
When are they coming out? Can't find a release date anywhere, which is beyond strange. Don't they want to sell these?
"OK Google..."
"Don't recommend this channel."
Love the design and the customisation part, will definitely buy. Great review, thanks.
Sennheiser momentum 4 has a 60 hr battery life, are very comfortable, and the sound quality is incredible.
have several brands of headphones, Sennheiser momentum, JBL, AirPod pro, Beats fit pro, so I find it difficult to go from paying 100 dollars less for a Sennheiser to paying 500 for a brand without the experience and trust that Sennheiser has, for example.
Why do they cost twice the Sony or Bose but with less features except the "customization"?
Also, customization: 2 cushions and 2 shells-> 50 bucks. Nah.
Dyson is trying to become a fashion brand. Easy recognition for the simple mind, kind of like LV bags.

NO SOUND REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
…but but you can change the caps!! 😁😁😁
Hey #Sony, please incorporate some of the design cues of the Dyson OnTrac (replaceable headphone covers) in the eagerly awaited WH-1000XM6's. Thx
Do you have a part 2 on comparison of sound quality ?
When do they drop???
No way I would buy these for 500 freaking dollars. I'm sticking with Skullcandy.
I think this lady is more suitable for a vacuum cleaner review rather than for headphones.
Tap the top of the band to turn on ANC or off.
I do love the look of these but i also love the momentum 4 which sounds better and has better battery life. The design is impeccable though. The designer should get with nothing and make a nothing headphone. It would mesh with their asthetics nicely.
Right out of the gate...buy these headphones because the design can be changed. It's an AUDIO device not FASHION accessory. Awful review.
I reviewed this review. And I highly do not recommend it. You will not learn anything about the sound quality of the headphone, which is it's primary purpose. Otherwise, go for it.
really bad review
Well, that was seven minutes. I’ll never get back.
What did he sound like?
It’s like you eating a chocolate muffin or a lot of chocolate muffins and telling me that they’re brown without telling me what they taste like .
$899.99CAD how do they compare to the Bose QC Ultra?
Why did you not mention the most fundamental part about a headphone? The sound quality...
Does it clean ears ?
Yes, microsuction, naturally.
I think all headphones should be customizable like that especially Sony
Worst review in the history of paid reviews! So much word salad, and zero sound examples.
I’ll stick to My Sony XM5’s 🤘
It's more of a fashion statement rather than top notch headphones. .
Just got a mail about this was the first time hearing about them.. and I just thought April 1st joke.
Beyerdynamics made customisable headphones more than a decade ago.
How is its been 3 years and the sony xm4s are still better than 99 percent of whats coming out and its half the price?
No specs to be found anywhere. Why is that?
spatial audio ?
Until Flossy Carter reviews these I won’t even consider them
3:34 for audio quality!
Lol, What about the sound quality compared to Sony? Sony WH series is the best
Mic test?
What a crap video, these are headphones… do a proper comparison, sound stage, frequency range, etc.
You talked more about the noise cancelling and design over audio. SMH
Worth a buy because of the customization options?
Come on😊
Go buy,buy,buy maybe she’s work in Best Buy.Didn’t talk about headphones nothing 😊😊😊😊😊
What is this review??
Never buy the 1st gen. Buy the 3rd gen and older.
Yea … right
Glad I’m not you and those who would think like you lol

Some novel tech in Dyson products
But they are as flimsy as heck and last two minutes

No 5.4 Bluetooth…..not worth the price
Great review, long battery life great sound, great price. Comfortable.
DEI hire?
Это потом все будет отваливаться и потеряется
Does the battery explode and your brain pop out? Will the battery iron your hair?
Extremely poor review tbh.
Not a single word about how they sound 🤦♂
Why bother, Dyson??? 🤔
Frequency chart??? No actual technical specifications. This isnt a review. This a shill video.
You lost me at 500$
Your so entertaining 🤭🤭🤭
This lady has ZERO clue about making reviews 😂😂😂
Waste of time, rethink how you do reviews as a review channel.
What a weak review, but hopefully you got paid 😂
Just a hate review. poor. Not well thought of content
Is that a review?😅
