Design and Features

The first impression from this headphones can be quite unappealing. For once, the packaging of this product is plastic, which is not environmentally friendly and moreover, the sharp edges can nip off your fingers if not careful. The over ear headphones are primarily made up of plastic and the audio cable is connected to both of the earcups, adding clutter and cannot be detached.

However, the Edifier H840 is extremely lightweight, adding the element of comfort.

Audio Quality

Experience superior Hi-Fi stereo sound quality with this headphone. With deep, balanced and powerful sounds, every note is clear and there is no scratching. If you’re an “audiophile” type of person, the sound quality on these will seem medium. However, it provides decent hi-fi audio quality, with a careful balance between treble and bass. Unfortunately, there are instances of overwhelming bass even at medium volume levels, it is not tight and punchy, offering unclear audio. But, for those bass “junkies” this can be an advantage.

It may not produce a lifelike music experience, but it’s fun to use, more so if you’ve already used neutral tones headphones for a while.

Over the Ear Noise Isolating

The Edifier H840 over the ear noise isolating feature is what really draws people to purchase this product. They enable you to focus on the music being played by isolating exterior noise, unfortunately, it doesn’t feature Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) technology. You can still enjoy listening more comfortable and clearly from it.

Comfort

As mentioned earlier, these headphones are lightweight enabling you to wear them all day without feeling any discomfort. Moreover, the ergonomic design of the soft leather cups provides remarkable comfort. Additionally, the headband adjustability feature makes it ideal for all head sizes. The case also has a nice look and comes with both a charger cable and 3.5mm jack with which you can connect to your phone or computer headphone jack.
