Marshall Major III Bluetooth Foldable Headphones – Brown

Product Information

The headband is slim and doesn't dig into our head even after extended durations, while the sturdy adjustment sliders offer a decent amount of size customisation. A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products. This means we hold to the highest industry standards for data protection and network security, and card data is safe with us. If it were us, we'd probably opt for the much cheaper, wired Marshall Major III - but then you can't share your music with a friend via Bluetooth and the 3.

Qualcomm Incorporated includes Qualcomm's licensing business, QTL, and the vast majority of its patent portfolio. Major III Bluetooth is a modern classic re-engineered with a straight fit headband, slimmed down 3D hinges and rebuilt ear cushions. I'll have a full review of the Marshall Major III Bluetooth after I spend a little more time with them. The overall tone is warm and full of low end, which will suit those of you who mostly listen to virtually any type of music.

Nothing has been compromised when expanding the Marshall heritage of big stage performance to the individual enjoyment of good music. Major III Bluetooth features black anodised 3D hinges that rotate freely to adapt to your head for an ergonomic fit.

The drums are delivered with added bass presence—they sound full and round, but not quite thunderous, which is a good thing. This is not a professional take on these headphones, I'm not an expert if it comes to sound quality or overall headphones, it's my personal overview of them after using them for over five years. View image in fullscreen The improved padding and lighter earcups still produce loud, clear sound that suits a wider variety of genres. Where the Major III really shine are rock and indie music, that's what kicked the brand off in the first place, after all. We can wear them for a few hours without too much issue, mainly due to the smoother vinyl material and soft fabric on the inside of the earcups.If you also have this problem with on-ear headphones, we’d recommend opting for over-ear headphones, which are usually more comfy, surrounding your ears rather than being placed on top of them. This lets you play/pause, skip tracks and alter volume, and doesn’t spoil the look of the headphones. We tried them in the office and could still easily hear people’s conversations, meaning you’d have to really blast your music if you wanted to drown out the outside world. I got used to their sound profile and every other headphones that I've tried just never sounded right to me.

The headphones can also be used in a wired, passive mode (the mode that I’ll use most of the time as my trusty Discman and MiniDisc players don’t have a Bluetooth connection). Passive noise cancellation is never a strong point of on-ear headphones, but the Marshall Major IIIs are particularly disappointing in this regard. We personally like the sound signature but then our guitar-heavy music taste dictates that we would.It all works very well, making you wonder why so many other manufacturers don’t have a similar control scheme. In January 2019 I had to warranty them because a small part of the hinge failed and it wasn't repairable. When it comes to the headphones, the Major III Voice offer up to 60 hours of wireless playtime on a single charge with 40mm dynamic drivers and a 30-foot wireless range.

In fact, the new headphones are 24g lighter, which combined with softer ear pads make them a touch more comfortable to wear. It’s unique in that, while it looks like a simple power button with a few extra functions, it’s actually both a button and a switch. Isolation of external noise is decent, with noises like the radio in the background, the hum of the air con and typing being mostly blocked out — but then again this isolation is good because of the Major III press fairly tightly against our ears. We tested a black pair but if it came down to our personal preference, the brown set really does look ace. Bluetooth interference: Check for possible sources of interference such as other Bluetooth devices or Wi-Fi routers that could affect the Bluetooth connection.The black, semi-coiled cable has a simple inline remote control and mic compartment at around chin level. On your device, go to Bluetooth settings and select "Major III Bluetooth" from the list of available devices.
