final UX3000

Just received and I've experimented for several hours today. I own a British reference stereo system that cost more than a fancy car. These headphones are a notch or two below the reference system but awesome performers and value for the price of $150. High fidelity sound, including soundspace, and functionality. I will urge friends and family looking around the <$1k mark to purchase these.Aspects in need of improvement:- the box promises a downloadable app which enables product warranty registration but it's late in 2022 and there still is no app available;- product contact page online does not recognize this product among the product line, so you cannot register the product; and- very short USB C cable for charging battery, you either lay the headphones on the floor next to your power strip or else you charge only on a desk top through another device, in my case, given the short length of the cable.Overall these headphones are excellent performers and great value. Buy them unless you want to spend a fortune, especially if you want an affordable pair you can risk during travel, the office, gym and other somewhat risky places. Unless you are a self-involved audiophile, the quality is truly excellent as is the value. Would buy again.

Tired of thumpy v-shaped headphones? Me too. Used app EQ with 3-bands and still getting sucky results? Not impressed with the "top rated" picks from tech review sites? These are for you.If you're familiar with other headphones I'd say these are like AKG k553 Pro with the addition of perfect low-end. Punchy like Beyerdynamic DT1990, minus the sibilance.Less expensive materials, but better sound than Bowers and Wilkins PX7 s2, especially in detail retrieval, imagining, separation, and tuning.Final put serious thought into the dac, driver, and DSP pairing. I don't understand how these seemingly plastic headphones are dampened so we'll.Only draw back is less fun tech stuff like cap touch controls, smart standby mode, etc. In the Sennheiser Momentum 4. But for me sound quality is #1.Bought a second pair for the wife!

Happy with these after a few days of use. Very likable no-frills experience with no app.First impression of sound quality is good. Will update this review later, but I haven't noticed any big differences between my more expensive wired setup (update: I would say SQ is fine, but lacks in clarity. I am still happy to use them as part of a wireless setup on my PC). Noise cancelling is ok and gives a more V-shaped sound.They are light on the head and conveniently fold up. Ear cups are a little small for my big ears.aptX low latency support works well; I get a delay of 20-30ms. For comparison, I get ~170ms using aptX, and ~200ms using SBC. Tested with the Creative BT-W3.They can be used while being charged, which is nice. Noise cancelling operates separately, so you can turn on and use NC without powering on the headphones, which is kinda cool, though you need to turn them both off separately when you're done (my suggestion for Final is to also turn NC off when powering down the headphones).The voice confirmations were recorded by a woman with a Japanese accent, which I find quite charming.

Rarely do I take the time to write a product review. The "final UX3000" over the ear bluetooth headphones are a rare exception. For $150. JUST GO BUY THEM. No discussion is necessary at this price. Before yesterday I never heard of the Japanese company "final" They are known for their audiophile line of earbuds. This is theiir first bluetooth headphone model. Simple design, simple tactile controls, good battery life, and outstanding $300. sound quality. I just ordered a pair for my wife too.

These headphones only sound decent when ANC is engaged. When it isn't, they sound like I have a sock stuffed in each ear cup.And the built-in voice prompts sound stupid because of the heavy Japanese accent of the female speaker.RETURNED

The Final UX3000 headphones sound great. I paired them with my Google Pixel 7 Pro and my windows laptop, and in both the sound is excelent. For some the fact that the ANC has to be turned off even if you turn off the device may be a problem, but you get used to it. Not a problem for me. And the sound... it sounds great. That is the biggest selling point for this headphones.

Muy mala calidad de audio para hablar

These headphones are comfortable and sound good, but they are nearly unusable due to an apparent product defect. Even when the battery is fully charged, the headphones will say 'battery low' at full volume. This is extremely disruptive when I am trying to listen to music or a podcast at around 30% volume. They also say 'device connected' and 'device disconnected' over and over again -- again, for no reason. I wish I had returned these and selected a different product months ago. I had these issues right out of the box, but naively thought they would dissipate after some use. I would love to exchange these for a new, non-defective pair, for which I would certainly change my rating.
