What we like about Noise Three

  • Incredible battery life, often reaching the advertised 70 hours of playtime
  • Impressive low latency (45ms) which makes them suitable for casual gaming and video watching
  • Great value for money with a rich bass and clear sound quality for its budget price point
  • Stable connectivity with Bluetooth 5.3 and convenient dual-device pairing functionality
  • Lightweight and foldable design that makes them portable for travel

What we don't like about Noise Three

  • Ear cushions can be stiff and cause discomfort or ear pain during long listening sessions
  • Passive noise isolation is weak, leading to noticeable sound leakage at high volumes
  • Dual pairing feature is reported by some users to be inconsistent or difficult to set up
  • Build quality feels somewhat plasticky and lacks a premium, sturdy feel
  • Limited Bluetooth range, with signal drops reported beyond a short distance

Verdict

The Noise Three is a wireless on-ear headphone designed for versatility, featuring 40mm dynamic drivers that deliver a bass-focused audio experience and an impressive 70-hour battery life with 'Instacharge' fast-charging support (200 minutes of play from a 10-minute charge). Utilizing Bluetooth v5.3, it supports dual device pairing for seamless switching and a low-latency 'Gaming Mode' that reduces delay to 45ms. Its foldable design includes IPX5 water resistance for sweat and spill protection, and it offers both wireless and wired connectivity via a 3.5mm jack. While it provides exceptional battery performance and stable connectivity at a budget-friendly price, some users have noted cons such as potential discomfort during prolonged wear due to the on-ear fit, significant sound leakage at higher volumes, and a lack of active noise cancellation.
