We've got a lot of love for the Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT Bluetooth over-ear headphones. From an audio perspective there's a lot of clout, with great balance and precision from these affordable cans. The comfortable wear for long periods and a battery lif...
Excellent sound quality, Very capable Bluetooth implementation, Comfy and well made
Call quality not great, Controls a little fiddly, Could do with USB-C rather than USB- A
In case you didn't notice from the 2,000 odd words preceding this, I like the M50xBT very much. It is hard to over emphasise how good a job Audio Technica has done with the conversion to wireless operation. They've kept the character of the headphone inta...

A good listen, Long battery life, Comfortable,
A touch bass-heavy, No active noise-cancelling, Make your ears warm,
The Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT headphones carry on the good work started by their wired siblings - adding to the mix a strong wireless connection over Bluetooth, with good battery life and the option of going wired if you get caught short for power.They're...

Great sound quality, Smooth mids, Comfortable, Great price
Clunky design, Treble frequencies could be clearer
Overall, the ATH-M50xBTs are a fantastic pair of headphones, with impressive sound quality, connectivity, and comfort. Compared to similar high-spec models, they are pretty good value for money at $199 (£179 / AU$379), particularly as they have wireless f...

If the thought of phones losing their 3.5mm sockets and just about all headphones going wireless makes you sigh, check out the Audio Technica ATH-M50X. They are classic headphones given just a little tweak to make them play nice with phones. Don't buy the...
