At The Gadget Man, I’m always on the lookout for tech that genuinely pushes boundaries — and Edifier’s latest release has me seriously impressed.

Why the NeoBuds Planar?

Unmatched Sound with Planar Magnetic Drivers

Most true wireless earbuds use dynamic drivers, but Edifier has taken a different path, packing planar magnetic drivers into the NeoBuds Planar. The result? Absolutely crisp, immersive audio. Whether you’re blasting your favourite playlist, tuning into a podcast, or taking an important call, these earbuds deliver an unbelievably rich and detailed soundstage.

Next-Level Noise Cancelling

Noise cancelling is no longer just a luxury – it’s essential. The NeoBuds Planar feature advanced active noise cancellation (ANC) technology, cutting out distractions whether you’re commuting, working in a noisy office, or just zoning out at home. Simply put, they create a cocoon of beautiful sound around you.

Premium-Quality Wireless Audio

Powered by Qualcomm® QCC5181 Bluetooth® audio SoCs and supporting the full Snapdragon Sound™ Technology Suite, the NeoBuds Planar are a true audiophile’s dream. They handle a variety of HD codecs including aptX™, aptX™ Adaptive, aptX™ Lossless, Snapdragon Sound™, LDAC, and LHDC – all of which combine to deliver an extraordinary audio experience across any device.

And yes, they come with Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification — meaning they meet the highest standards for wireless audio quality. This isn’t just marketing hype; the difference is tangible.

All-Day Power and Crystal-Clear Calls

When it comes to convenience, Edifier hasn’t cut corners. Six high-sensitivity microphones combined with Qualcomm aptX™ Voice technology mean your voice comes through clearly during calls or when speaking to your favourite virtual assistant. And with up to 30 hours of total playtime (including the charging case), they’ll easily keep pace with your busy day.

Smarts to Match the Sound

The EDIFIER ConneX app unlocks a host of smart features, including automatic music pause/play when you take them out or put them back in, and full customisation to tweak your audio to perfection.

Final Thoughts

The Edifier NeoBuds Planar aren’t just another pair of wireless earbuds – they’re a serious step forward in audio technology, offering planar driver performance in a true wireless form factor. If you’re serious about sound — and you want freedom from wires without sacrificing quality — these could well be your next favourite gadget.
