Expert Opinion
Professional reviewers praise the PH805 for its ultra‑light 235 g build, ergonomic cushions, and innovative flat‑folding design that enhances travel convenience. The hybrid ANC with four microphones delivers impressive -27 dB noise reduction, making it effective against transport and voice noise. Its wired Hi‑Res capability (7 Hz‑40 kHz) is highlighted for detailed audio, while criticisms focus on average passive isolation, fit gaps for certain head shapes, and the Bluetooth‑limited frequency range.
What Users Say
Everyday users echo many of the expert points, lauding the lightweight comfort, strong ANC for commuting, long battery life, and portable folding with a pouch. Recurring complaints center on fit gaps that cause ear leakage, a perceived drop in sound quality over Bluetooth, and occasional connectivity issues.
Common Complaints
Fit gaps leading to ear leakage, reduced sound detail when using Bluetooth versus wired, and average passive noise isolation that lets some ambient sound through.
