Back with a bang

Chris Kerr

Bang & Olufen has updated its headphone range with the second-generation version of its Beoplay H4 wirlesss bluetooth headphones. The new H4’s offer a number of improvements on the original over-ears, including a USB-C charging port, an extra microphon for better voice antics, a more streamlined design that hides the headphone cord and makes the stylish aluminium caps more prominent, and voice assistant support via a dedicated button that’ll let you request news, weather reports, or your favourite songs with a quick push. Despite those notable tweaks, the £250 price tag hasn’t changed, meaning the H4’s are still well worth considering if you’re after a pair of premium cans that won’t leave you praying for your next payday.

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
