Review on Grey Hazel Beoplay H8 Wireless On-Ear Headphone with Active Noise Cancelling from Bang & Olufsen by Jared Gopalan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wow! I was very surprised. Amazing workmanship, functionality, sound and quality. Worth the cost.

Wow! I've always liked B&O products, but I've always understood that they're overpriced because of their design, and while they sound good, they've never been truly high-end in sound. B&O prices destroy everything Bose does and have always been high. The $499 h8 headphones are expensive, but they have headphones that range in price from $1,600 to $3,500 but are comparable to headphones in many ways in terms of sound quality. They're flying off the shelves for some reason. Even B&O stores are always sold out and I had a hard time getting my pair at Revain as they sold out (at least in brown ones) within a day or two of going on sale. The bluetooth paired quickly, the sound was so nice and balanced (btw they will kill everything at Best Buy), they are comfortable, fit perfectly, have a high standard of finish and the touch controls are excellent. .So glad I went with them. On-site reviews. I liked them so much that I ordered the A9 and the Beolit 15 from Revain yesterday. Fantastic. No regret. Wireless, noise canceling, it's all there. Even wired use without affecting the sound quality when the battery is low.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • unreliable
