The wired connection was praised for eliminating latency and audio lag. That direct path suits competitive play where timing matters.
Pros: Overall satisfaction, Sound quality
Cons: Bass performance, Treble clarity
Only one reviewer directly judged video/gaming latency, reporting no noticeable lag in casual use.
Pros: Active noise cancellation, Sound quality
Cons: Spatial audio, Ear tip size options
Video playback generally shows little or no noticeable lip-sync delay. A wired connection is favored when gaming latency matters most.
Pros: Active noise cancellation, Sound quality
Cons: Bass performance, Midrange clarity
Latency evidence was limited but positive for wired analog use, where reviewers noted no latency through the headphone cable.
Pros: Sound quality, Active noise cancellation
Cons: Touch control responsiveness, Spatial audio
Video and gaming sync evidence is mixed: one reviewer found lip sync spot-on, while gaming-oriented comments note no low-latency mode or only limited gaming suitability.
Pros: Value for money, Sound quality
Cons: Active noise cancellation, Codec support
The absence of USB-C audio removes a potentially lower-latency wired option, which is a drawback for video and gaming use.
Pros: Comfort during long use, Premium feel
Cons: Battery, Value for money
Audio-video sync was a limitation: one reviewer saw only minor issues, while another called out no low-latency mode for video and games.
Pros: Midrange clarity, Comfort during long use
Cons: Build quality, Microphone noise reduction
