Third-party reviews

What customers like about Mixcder MSH101

  • Spectacular price-to-quality ratio, offering high value for money
  • Extremely comfortable for long-term wear with soft ear pads
  • Lightweight and foldable design, making them portable and travel-friendly
  • Decent battery life for the price point, typically around 16 to 20 hours
  • Good sound quality for everyday use, with loud volume that maintains clarity

What customers don't like about Mixcder MSH101

  • Lacks Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), unlike newer or premium models
  • Durability issues reported, with the exterior coating and ear pads tearing after months of use
  • Ear pads are difficult to replace and require a complex gluing procedure
  • Uses older Bluetooth 4.1 technology, which lacks the range and efficiency of modern versions
  • Lacks specialized audio features like spatial audio or passive noise reduction seals

Verdict

The Mixcder MSH101 is a pair of over-ear wireless headphones featuring 40mm neodymium drivers with an impedance of 32Ω and a frequency response of 20Hz–20kHz. They utilize Bluetooth 4.1 for connectivity and offer approximately 18 to 20 hours of playback on a single 2-hour charge via its 360mAh battery. Main characteristics include a foldable design for portability, a built-in microphone for hands-free calls, and a detachable cable for wired use. Key pros are their lightweight build, comfortable leather ear pads, and relatively long standby time of over 1,000 hours. Notable cons include the lack of active noise cancellation (ANC), the absence of a noise-canceling microphone, and a legacy Micro-USB charging port instead of USB-C.
