Theres lots to like about the SoundMAGIC P23BT, particularly the price tag of these Bluetooth headphones.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
If youre after an affordable set of wireless headphones which boast plenty of battery life for listening to music on lengthy travels, then check out the
new SoundMAGIC P23BT.
These Bluetooth headphones offer an impressive claimed battery life of 54 to 60 hours of playback on a full charge of the 400mAh power pack. Along with Bluetooth 5.0 support, you can alternatively opt for a wired connection, as the P23BT comes with a bundled wired boom mic which can be used for business calls, or indeed a bit of gaming chat.

Another bonus comes in terms of portability, as these headphones can be
folded up so theyre flat and take up a suitably small amount of space in your backpack or other luggage (it comes bundled with a carry case, too, as well
as the aforementioned wired boom mic). (Image credit: SoundMAGIC)
But all this wouldnt mean much without good audio, of course, and in the
quest for that, the SoundMAGIC P23BT benefits from 40mm neodymium drivers and high-definition sound. To make them comfortable while they're on, SoundMAGIC says they boast leatherette earpads with memory foam are designed to mould to the ear and give a good level of comfort (hopefully without any sweatiness creeping in).
The P23BT also has a built-in mic with noise reduction, and it sports some intuitive controls which are triggered via simple taps or swipes on the earcups.
If you fancy grabbing the SoundMAGIC P23BT, these headphones wont make much
of a dent in your bank balance given that they retail at a few pennies under 50 (around $70, AU$95). Analysis: Battery on a budget
We'll reserve our judgment until we hear them for ourselves, but based on their specs this looks like a solid set of affordable headphones, and that battery life is seriously impressive, particularly given the asking price.
Reaching up to 60 hours of playback is great, and whats also cool is that should you ever get up in the morning to find the battery is run down, theres a quick charge mode to give you enough to tide you over just a 10-minute juice-up grants five hours of playtime. Theres also 50 days on standby with these headphones.
Obviously we cant get too carried away without actually trying the P23BT and listening to them, but for the money, the rest of the spec and materials
sound pretty smart. Our main concern would be slight question marks over
those earcup-based controls and whether the necessary taps and swipes (to adjust volume, skip tracks, or mute and so forth) will be responsive and accurate enough hopefully no frustrations will be introduced on this front. The best headphones for every music genre
