Microsoft revealed their new wearable device, the Surface Headphones. The premium over-the-ear headphones feature adjustable noise cancellation, giving users precise control over how much outside noise to let in. The headphones also support “Hey Cortana” for voice commands and automatically pause music when removed from your ears. They’ll be shipping out later this year.

Wow the headphone has USB‑C and the laptops and tablets dont
Bring Windows Phone Back
The first pair of headphones (that I am aware of) with a usb C port. FINALLY!!!! Hopefully other companies will follow this trend.
How will compare to Sony 1000X models or Bose Models of noise cancelling headphones?
The design feels very Windows 95 era hardware
bose qc35 has adjustable noise cancelling. that is not new.. not unique..
Touch to pause is a terrible feature
ohhh!! they go on your ears, that are on the side of your head. lolololololol woi! if mi laugh one more time. @0:23
So you put a USB type C on a headphone 🎧 but not on you $2000+ more tablet and laptop
I don’t think is worth the money
Instant Bluetooth connection? No? Not a buy.
Correction not first wearable there is still the Microsoft Band and Band 2
You’re kidding, right? $ 350 and NOT audiophile quality? The headphone market is absurd. Why does the Apple and Microsoft customer base not care at all that they always over pay for less technology? But it looks good ! ( Airpods NOT!)
Microsoft Holo was a wearable.
You lied to me ;_;
atleast Microsoft used usb‑c on this Surface product…
if we can replace cortana with google then i’d get it
the overall battery life seems like a letdown when compared to other rivals.
a cortana on a pixel phone hmmmm 0:54
The parrot Zik can adjust the noise cancellation… Freely.
is it possible to use them wired?
2:24 “They go on top of the ears on the side of your head”. Where else could my ears be 🤔???
So annoying and a little sinister; you preview headphones and then blow off the most important factor: “You shouldn’t expect audiophile…sparkly highs and stuff.” @ 2:22 What are you talking about man?
Don’t like the Cortana always-on function.
the only dealbreaker
Cortana
Quite a mediocre review
They look boring and mediocre like 90% of the mediocre stuff microsoft make. I think I’ll stick with My Sony WH 1000X M2’s.
$220 New on ebay
love these headphones. But a little “click” sound for adjusting the ANC or Volume is missing. Also, I miss the App in Germany. Only the US Market has it. Buildquality, comfort and design is way better than Sony WH… . And i like how they sound.
Do they sell earcuffs?
no quality worse product ever I brought, with in 6 months earpads spoiled
I bought a pair of these used from Amazon. They’re amazing. The EQ in the app allows you to dial in the sound to your exact preference and they still get software updates in late 2022. The noise canceling is top tier and you can probably get them for little more than a hundred bucks right now.
