At the heart of this cutting-edge product is the patented Edifier Wide-Band Multi-Channel ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) technology. This feature broadens the noise cancellation depth to a staggering -50dB and the bandwidth to 5kHz, which is a notable advancement in the ANC domain. It’s not just about silencing the world around you; it’s about immersing you in a sound experience like no other.

One of the standout features of NeoBuds Pro 2 is the Spatial Audio with Visualized Head-Tracking technology. This innovative feature, aided by a built-in gyrometer and accelerometer, tracks your head movements to adjust the sound stage, offering a 3D auditory feast that surrounds you with lifelike audio from every angle. With the Edifier Connect App, you can visualize this technology in action, taking your listening experience to a whole new level.

Now, let’s talk about the quality of music streaming. The NeoBuds Pro 2 makes streaming over Bluetooth, supporting up to 192kHz/24bit, a reality for the first time, thanks to the latest LHDC 5.0 HD codec. This is a leap from the standard streaming quality, offering audio enthusiasts high-resolution streaming over Bluetooth.

Edifier didn’t stop at just delivering superior sound quality; the brand went a step further to enhance the calling experience. With 4+4 built-in microphones paired with an AI voice pick-up algorithm, the earbuds effectively filter out environmental and wind noise, ensuring crystal clear calls, regardless of where you are.

The NeoBuds Pro 2 doesn’t shy away from showcasing its Hi-Res certification. Boasting a Knowles balanced armature driver, composite diaphragm dynamic drivers, and an array of audio coding including LDAC, LHDC, SBC, and AAC, these earbuds are truly a cut above the rest. The Superior Digital Signal Processing with Active Cross-Over further refines the audio signal, ensuring precise sound details and a rich presentation.

For gamers and those who love an immersive audio-visual experience, the low latency audio gaming mode is a boon. This feature significantly enhances the gaming experience by reducing audio lag, ensuring what you see on screen matches what you hear in real-time.

The design also embodies a blend of elegance and durability. With IP54 dust and splash resistance, these earbuds are your perfect companion whether you’re working out or caught in a drizzle. The fit is personalized with seven different sized ear tips, ensuring comfort for all ear shapes and sizes.

Battery life is often a concern with wireless earbuds, but not with the NeoBuds Pro 2. The fast-charging feature coupled with long playback capability provides 22 hours of battery life from the charging case alone, while a quick 15-minute charge offers two hours of playback time.

The aesthetic appeal is not left behind; the sleek design accompanied by a textured metal plate and changeable LED strip light mirrors the sophistication of a supercar.

Available at a price of £129.99, the Edifier NeoBuds Pro 2 is a steal for the plethora of features it offers. It’s not just a pair of earbuds; it’s a statement of luxury and value for audiophiles seeking the next level of audio experience. Check them out here
