Verdict

The Avantree Audition Procast is a Bluetooth 5.0 over-ear wireless headset featuring a unique broadcast mode that allows real-time audio sharing with up to 100 compatible headphones over a 100ft range. Key specifications include 40mm high-precision drivers, a frequency response of 20Hz–20KHz, 32-ohm impedance, and a 100dB sound pressure level. It supports the aptX Low Latency codec to eliminate audio-visual lag and offers dual-mode connectivity with an included 3.5mm cable. Main pros include its lightweight 200g foldable design, comfortable protein leather earpads, built-in bass boost, and multipoint pairing for two devices simultaneously. However, its 18-hour battery life is significantly shorter than the standard Audition Pro model, and it lacks active noise cancellation (ANC) and a noise-canceling microphone.

Summary of the review

Review - Avantree NFC Stereo Bluetooth Headphones - NeozOne

The NeozOne review of the Avantree Audition Bluetooth NFC headset highlights it as a highly functional, wireless audio option. The reviewer notes that the device provides an excellent, well-balanced sound stage with crisp highs and distinct bass, making it perfect for listening to live music recordings. Additionally, the headset boasts exceptional battery life with a 20-day standby time and up to 40 hours of active playback. Its lightweight 180g frame ensures great daily comfort, and the overall isolation completely disconnects the listener from environmental noise. The package is uniquely generous, coming equipped with alternative earpads, a 3.5mm jack cable, and a micro USB charging cable. On the downside, the reviewer pointed out a couple of technical and aesthetic limitations. Despite the integrated NFC technology intended for instant pairing, the reviewer could not successfully connect via NFC on a compatible OnePlus One smartphone. Furthermore, the physical build and aesthetic finish of the device were explicitly criticized for looking and feeling a bit cheap ("un peu chip").

Summary of the review

Avantree HT280 - Complete Review - Geeks' Stuff

The Avantree HT280 is a set of over-ear wireless television headphones designed around a 2.4 GHz radiofrequency transmitter base, making it a highly versatile alternative to traditional Bluetooth models for late-night viewing, elderly individuals, or those with hearing loss. The device features a comprehensive selection of connection ports on the back of its charging dock, including optical digital, coaxial, and analog RCA inputs, and it comes packed with all the necessary cables and adapters. Key pros highlighted in the review include its exceptionally loud maximum output volume without losing sound clarity, a highly generous battery life that lasts up to 12 hours on a single charge, and an impressive low latency of just 10 ms that eliminates audio lag during movies. Furthermore, despite its sturdy over-ear design, the headset remains remarkably lightweight and comfortable without clamping too tightly on the user's head.
