Third-party reviews

What customers like about Meizu HD60

  • Premium build quality featuring cowhide leather and stainless steel components
  • Comfortable around-ear fit suitable for long listening sessions
  • Balanced sound profile with clear mids/highs and full, non-turbid low frequencies
  • Responsive and intuitive touch controls on the earcups
  • Long battery life (up to 25 hours on the standard model)
  • High-resolution audio support with aptX and Hi-Res certification

What customers don't like about Meizu HD60

  • Noise cancellation on the ANC model is gentler and less effective than flagship competitors like Sony or Bose
  • Initial sound can feel slightly stiff or rough in the high-frequency range before burn-in
  • Standard model lacks active noise cancellation and passive isolation is only moderate
  • The voice prompts are primarily in Chinese, which may be inconvenient for international users
  • Non-folding design makes them less compact for travel compared to some rivals

Verdict

The Meizu HD60 is a Hi-Res certified over-ear Bluetooth 5.0 headphone featuring 40mm bio-fiber diaphragm drivers, a 20Hz–40kHz frequency response, and 16Ω impedance for high-resolution audio performance. It utilizes a premium build with a cowhide leather headband, stainless steel sliding structure, and protein leather earmuffs, offering up to 25 hours of battery life via USB-C charging and support for the aptX codec. Main pros include its comfortable ergonomic design, stable wireless connection, and intuitive touch gesture controls for volume and playback. However, notable cons include the lack of active noise cancellation (ANC) in the standard model, high touch sensitivity leading to accidental operations, and a lack of water resistance which may lead to metal oxidation over time.
