Editorial note

The 3M MRX21AWS5 headset stands out for its binaural and in-ear design, providing an immersive audio experience and prolonged listening comfort. Its 32-hour continuous playback time is a major asset for users looking to enjoy their music without frequent interruptions. Additionally, the connectivity technology, both wired and wireless, allows for appreciated flexibility when using it with various devices. However, the weight of 430 g may be considered heavy, which could lead to some discomfort during long listening sessions. The Bluetooth 2.1+EDR technology, while functional, is relatively old and may limit compatibility with some recent devices. The in-ear headphones, although effective for sound isolation, may not suit everyone due to the pressure they exert on the ear canal. Regarding the microphone, its noise-canceling system is an advantage for clear communications, but the lack of details on its frequency may raise questions about its performance in noisy environments. Finally, although the product complies with safety standards, its reliance on NiMH batteries may be less convenient compared to modern rechargeable options. Overall, the 3M MRX21AWS5 is a headset offering good audio performance and impressive battery life, but a few drawbacks should be considered for optimal use.
