Verdict

The AKG Y400 is a lightweight (170g) wireless on-ear headphone featuring 36mm drivers, Bluetooth 5.0 with AAC support, and a frequency response of 20Hz–20kHz. Its primary characteristics include a foldable design, multi-point connectivity for switching between devices, and smart features like Ambient Aware, TalkThru, and automatic play/pause wear-detection. Main pros include its highly portable build, USB-C quick charging (4 hours of play from 10 minutes), and a balanced, energetic sound profile. However, it has some cons, such as an unremarkable 20-hour battery life compared to predecessors, a lack of active noise cancellation (ANC), and a headband that may feel tight for users with larger heads.
