Manual of product WH500
Editorial note
The Edifier WH500 headphones stand out for their optimal comfort, allowing for prolonged listening sessions without fatigue, which contributes to a largely positive user experience with a score of 85. Their impressive battery life of 40 hours of continuous playback is particularly appreciated, although a charging time of 120 minutes may seem long for some users. This point is offset by the possibility of quick charging in just 10 minutes, offering valuable flexibility. In terms of audio, the performance is of high quality, with a sensitivity of 91 dB and a frequency range of 20 to 2000 Hz, ensuring a clear and dynamic sound experience. However, the most demanding audiophiles might find this range insufficient, which is reflected in the performance score of 80. Wireless connectivity, thanks to Bluetooth 5.2 technology, is fast and stable, although the range of 10 meters may be perceived as limiting for some users. The modern and sleek design of the Edifier WH500 is an asset, but the choice of in-ear headphones may not suit everyone, with some preferring over-ear models. This detail is taken into account in the design score of 75. Intuitive controls via buttons make it easy to manage volume and tracks, making usage simple and convenient, which is confirmed by a usability score of 80. Finally, although the built-in microphone is precise with a sensitivity of -42 dB, it may struggle in noisy environments, impacting the score of 70 dedicated to microphone quality. Overall, the Edifier WH500 is an excellent choice for those seeking comfort and battery life, but may not meet the expectations of the most demanding users in terms of sound quality and microphone performance.Score details
