Simple and generous in shape, comfortable to wear without pressing the ears.
Surface headphones look sharp and not gorgeous, only matte silver is color matching, not as fashionable as Beats headphones, but it is also a simple and atmospheric business style. It has a 3.5mm headphone jack and a TypeC charging jack. Dials on the left and right ear pads, seemingly unusual Microsoft controllers, hide the black technology of Surface headphones in a low-key way.
Put on the coat, the overall feeling is comfortable, and the ear pad is soft and breathable, completely covering the ears. The earphone weighs about 290 grams. After wearing headphones for several hours, my ears still feel comfortable, but they feel a little heavy.
The connection is fast and stable, and the noise reduction effect is obvious.
Headphones are easy to connect to devices. Surface headphones can be used with Windows10, Mac, iOS or Android devices, and have strong compatibility. When pairing, you need to put on headphones first, press and release the power button quickly, and turn on the power. At this time, there will be voice feedback in the headset, prompting the state information of the headset such as the remaining power. When the headset is in pairing mode, the LED light will flash white.
If the headset has been paired with another device, you need to press and hold the power button until you hear that they are in pairing mode, then turn on Bluetooth in the corresponding device, select pairing with "Surface Headphones" and connect soon.
As a high-end headset, Surface headset still has the basic quality of stable connection. The sound quality is clear, soft and satisfactory, which can satisfy earphone users who are pursuing sound. However, no matter whether it is high-pitched, alto or bass, it can't achieve higher expressive force except clarity.
The multi-stage noise reduction function greatly improves the earphone experience. According to the official introduction, Surface headphones have 30dB active noise reduction and 40dB passive noise reduction, and users can freely choose to shield, retain or even amplify the ambient sound. The noise reduction effect is not bad. In a noisy office environment, you can immerse yourself in your own world by wearing headphones. It should be noted that it must be debugged back and forth through the dial to find a balance between the amplification and reduction of noise reduction, otherwise it will sound unnatural.
Convenient touch control and limited voice control.
The control of Surface headphones is really convenient, as long as you make different gestures to the dial, you can completely control it. Tap the touch area once to play or pause; Tap twice to switch to the next track. When you take off the earphone, it will automatically stop playing, and when you put it back on, it will resume playing, with fast connection speed and smooth switching. Of course, if you take off the headphones for too long (more than 20 minutes), you need to reconnect the device to continue playing. If the phone receives an incoming call while playing music, tap twice to answer and tap twice to end the call. Unfortunately, although the operation is convenient, when adjusting the headphones, there will also be cases of incorrect touch or insensitive induction, and the sense of control is not stable enough.
Another highlight of the Surface headset is that it can be used with Microsoft artificial intelligence Cortana to control music and calls through voice. To use this function, you need to download Cortana app on the device and log in to Microsoft account to connect and set it up. However, as Cortana app has not been put on the China app Store for the time being, you need to download the Surface Headset App for setting, which can only be set in the Microsoft Store of Windows 10. If you want to use Cortana voice control function, the process is still a bit complicated.
Strong endurance, qualified performance and high price.
Surface headphones perform well in terms of charging and battery life. After being fully charged for 2 hours, it can support the use time of 15 hours, which fully meets the continuous use all day. Even if you sometimes forget to charge, after 5 minutes of emergency charging, playing music for one hour is enough, and the charging speed is faster.
The price of Microsoft headphones is 2888 yuan, which is on the high side. The overall performance of the Surface headphones of high-end headphones is qualified. But facing the price of nearly 3,000 yuan, consumers will have higher expectations. On the other hand, the overall performance of Microsoft headphones, this price is high. Other brands of headphones with the same price have many mature earphone products. As the first headset product of Microsoft, the competitiveness of Surface headset is slightly lacking.
