Sennheiser HD 350BT

If you’re working within a tighter budget and can live with the 350’s limitations, there isn’t another set of Bluetooth on-ears that currently offer this sort of rich audio experience for such a low price.

At $199.95, the Sennheiser HD 350BT headphones are very good value, with good sound, great build and a first-class name behind them. At $149.95, they’re a steal. Unless you are a traveller and want active noise cancellation. Or even the ability to use them with the on-board flight entertainment system. Then they’ll be of little use to you.

The HD 350BT is the no frills version without the noise-cancellation, but still delivers great audio and solid comfort for the asking price.

From a sonic point of view, Sennheiser’s HD 350BT should appeal not only to adults but also to teenagers who prefer a strong bass response. At the same time, these Bluetooth headphones cover a wide range of applications and are recommended for listening to audio books and watching films thanks to their precise, clear voice reproduction. If you can do without the option of wired use, you will find these to be good, portable all-rounders with a very long battery life, which also offer a remarkably stable wireless connection with a usefully long range.
