These wireless headphones have a long-lasting battery, delivering 15 hours of listening time with both Bluetooth and ANC turned on, and up to an impressive 30 hours of playback with just ANC turned on.
Compact, foldable and lightweight, the AKG headphones are ideal for any type of travel, whether you're commuting on a noisy train or getting some shut-eye on a plane with a screaming baby. The lightweight and comfortable design also means you can wear them for a long time.

As one would expect from one of the biggest producers of audio equipment, the sound quality is crystal clear, the bass is accurate and the rhythmic precision is fantastic.
