Bang & Olufsen Beoplay HX Headphones

If  you’ve never experienced active noise-cancelling headphones, just imagine floating in a hot springs pool staring up at the sky, your ears just below the surface of the water. The real world disappears and all that remains is an all-encompassing calm. Now layer your favorite chill hop beats or a Criminal podcast over that and you get the idea. 

Bang & Olufsen Beoplay HX Headphones are taking the cottony envelopment of ANC headphones and maximizing the experience. To start, they brought nearly a century of audio expertise to create custom-made 40mm drivers for outstanding sonic clarity. 

Next, they focused on comfort. Doesn’t matter how good the audio or the noise cancelling is, if it feels like there’s a tourniquet atop your head, all bets are off. Lightweight with a “center relief comfort zone” on the headband and memory foam/lambskin ear cups, these are going to stay comfortable when you’re plowing through deadline after deadline. 

And speaking of longevity, Beoplay HX Headphones have a massive 35 hour play time with ANC on and an insane 40 hours with just bluetooth running. As B&O are a Scandinavian company, the design must be mentioned. Modern and clean, they’re made from primo materials like pearl-blasted recycled aluminum, knitted fabric, polymer-painted plastic, and the aforementioned lambskin. 

When it’s time to TCOB as you WFH, clap on a pair of Beoplay HX and get focused.
