Review on Shure AONIC 50 Wireless Over-Ear Noise Cancelling Headphones (White) by Itthipon Thiamwong ( ᠌

Very good sound quality across all 3 connection options. I compared it with many, starting from the M50xBT to the B&W PX7 and Sennheiser M3, I can’t single out which sound I liked more, I consider the differences small (rather nuances) - a slightly different handwriting in tonal balance, in different genres and the conditional leader was different, frankly the worst to my ears there were only Sony WF-1000XM4. Shure liked the smooth monitor sound with very high detail. At first, it seems a little less spectacular compared to its competitors, but then you realize that the absence of a protruding bass is rather an advantage, and long listening is noticeably less tiring, the emphasis on the midrange makes vocals more interesting. But in terms of design, build quality and materials, I definitely liked Shure the most. The design looks very reliable, without weaknesses. They look neat and unmassive on the head, they are just nice to take in hand. The round box is chic - in such a package, the headphones (among other advantages) are ideal for a gift, including for a loved one. There are no complaints about the convenience of landing, they wrote about the pressure on the temples, but you just need to slightly deploy the tight hinges (finding the optimal angle) by redirecting the pressure of the ear pads from the temples to the behind-the-ear part. I can sit in them for hours, nothing presses, the most delicate leatherette. The weight is slightly more than that of all-plastic ones, but they do not seem heavy on the head. I immediately removed the transport pads at the points of contact of the cups with metal arms, there are no traces for a month of active use - the problem is far-fetched. Connection with PC, phone and tablet is fast and hassle-free. This is surprising, but my connection is confidently and without stuttering, even through 2 reinforced concrete load-bearing walls (with a PC through one), this despite the fact that a powerful WiFi6 router "phonites" nearby. There is a simultaneous connection to 2 devices, they switch quickly. There is BT5 and all modern codecs from SBC to LDAC. The battery is not a champion in capacity, but autonomy is more than enough for me. Modern Type-C USB connector.
