In-Depth Review
The "Foldable" Comeback. This model builds on the legacy of the XM5 but finally brings back the fan-favorite foldable design, making it significantly easier to pack in smaller travel cases.
The Upgrade: It features the new QN3 Processor, which optimizes 12 microphones to block out high-frequency noise (like voices and metro announcements) much better than previous generations.
The Deal: Frequently available at a significant discount on Amazon.ae compared to its original launch price. While some audiophiles complain about the lack of aptX codecs, for 99% of commuters and travelers, the silence and comfort are unmatched.
Why we picked this
"The new king of silence. With 12 microphones and the QN3 processor, this is the absolute best choice for frequent flyers and open-office workers who need total isolation."
