Excellent audio performance with rich bass depth and detailed highs ; Above-average noise cancellation ; Case supports wireless charging ; Solid battery life

Expensive ; App lacks customizable EQ and controls ; Capacitive touch controls can sometimes lag

The Beyerdynamic Free Byrd earphones deliver exceptional audio and reasonably good noise cancellation, but their app and on-ear controls could use a bit more attention.

Great build quality ; The same excellent sound Beyerdynamic is famous for ; 8 pairs of included ear tips ; In-ear detection ; Fast Pair ; 2-year warranty ; Low latency gaming mode

Autopause takes a while to activate ; Occasional phantom touch inputs ; Buds are a little hard to get out of the case ; Controls in solo bud mode are a little wonky ; Unclear if replacement foam tips will become available
