For real gourmets
Specialists from Bang & Olufsen are sensitive to trends and as soon as the demand for true wireless headphones appeared on the market, they immediately fussed and released a very interesting BeoPlay E8 model. Like any brainchild of a Danish company, these headphones are a product for connoisseurs of truly high-quality sound. They cost accordingly.
Hi-Fi sound without reservation
The first thing to start the review is, of course, the sound quality. We say right away, it's audiophile, uncompromising, hi-fi here — insert any favorite word to describe a great sound. Overall, the sound of the BeoPlay E8 is not much inferior to expensive full-length on-ear headphones — it is a clear and involving sound with a well-drawn transparent middle and slightly forward high frequencies. The bass is thick, dynamic and truly grown-up without discounting the miniature size. An additional plus is some prohibitively cool ergonomics, the headphones sit in the ears so clearly and confidently, as if it were a custom-tailored suit. After all, the sound in vacuum headphones largely depends on the quality of the fit in the ear.
Flexible adjustment of sound insulation level
In addition to the basic SBH codec, the wireless channel uses a more advanced AAC, thanks to which the headphones are able to perform well in conjunction with iOS mobile devices. But the headphones, unfortunately, do not support the aptX codec. The built-in microphones work not only for calls, but also allow you to control the level of sound isolation, allowing you to choose one of three levels — from the maximum, when you need to fully concentrate on the music, to the minimum, when, in addition to the sounds of music from the headphones, you need to hear well everything that is happening around. Bang&Olufsen called this technology Transparency Mode.
Stylish charging case
In terms of design, the BeoPlay E8 look nice, but not to say that they stand out in any way. But the miniature charging case with natural corrugated leather trim looks great. It looks more like a jewelry case than a regular headphone case. With regards to battery life, we have a standard 4 hours of operation from a single charge. The battery in the carrying case has a capacity of 365 mAh. This is enough for a couple of recharges, so that the total battery life reaches 12 hours. If it's not enough, then you should pay attention to the BeoPlay E8 2.0 with a more capacious battery.
Convenient control system
The model is interesting not only for its design, but also for control using touch panels on each earphone. It was done wisely and is different for the right and left channels: for example, to start the next track, you need to touch the right earphone, and to return to the previous one, touch the left earphone. It is the same with the sound level: a long touch on one makes it louder, on the other — quieter.
