1MORE Dual Driver ANC Pro Wireless Headphones Review

How Much Does it Cost?
The 1MORE Dual Driver ANC Pro Wireless Headphones are available right now from Amazon UK for just £144.99. That’s a pretty great price given the overall quality, features and performance. That’s a little less than what Bose and B&O offer at this price range. However, it’s hard to draw a solid comparison given 1More’s unique neckband design, as that heavily tips the scale in their favour for battery life and connectivity. Libratone do a similar set, but they’re nowhere near as nice quality as 1More. The same is true of the Bowers & Wilkins PI3, similar design but more expensive and not as well equipped as the ANC Pro. Top marks for 1More, again it seems.
Overview
I love reviews like this because I can confidently slap out Editors Choice on it. There’s absolutely no fault on these headphones, and I’m sure 1More will be happy to hear that. The sound quality is phenomenal, and their constant innovation and use of premium components continue to keep them ahead of the game. I don’t care that they had some Emmy winner tune their drivers, all I care about is that I like what I hear at the end, and I do. They’re on the right side of the audiophile fence for me, no snake oil claims here, just genuinely good hardware at a fair price.
Build Quality
Again, they’re top of their game here. I can’t see anything on the market that comes close when it comes to build quality. Even the premium brands like Bowers look like trash in comparison. Sure, style is subjective, but 1More are about the best looking headphones out there I think. Titanium this, aluminium that, it’s all good stuff, but it’s how it’s shaped and put together that makes these stand out.
Sound Quality and Beyond
Great drivers and great build quality combined with excellent comfort, that’s a solid package right there. However, it’s the little extras that stack up here. Hi-Res audio support, even more so, Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification too. As you can use these over the USB cable or via Bluetooth. There are four microphones dealing with noise cancellation and wind noise. There’s ultra-fast 10min charge for 3-hours of usage, plus 15-20 hours battery at full charge. Day-to-day, this is a very enjoyable set of headphones to live with.
