Third-party reviews

What customers like about Xround Voca Max

  • High-resolution audio with support for LDAC and AAC codecs
  • Extensive battery life of up to 40 hours on a single charge
  • Lightweight and comfortable design for long-duration wear (approx. 240g)
  • Comprehensive connectivity with Bluetooth 5.3 and 3.5mm wired input
  • Immersive 3D spherical surround sound for gaming and media
  • Advanced 5-microphone system for clear voice calls and ANC
  • Includes a dedicated Mytune app for EQ and sound customization

What customers don't like about Xround Voca Max

  • Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) performance is noted as decent but not top-tier compared to industry leaders
  • High-frequency response (up to 40kHz) may be more than what standard human hearing can perceive
  • Availability can be limited in certain regional markets outside of Asia
  • Price point may be considered high for a brand that is less established than Sony or Bose

Verdict

The XROUND Voca Max are over-ear ANC Bluetooth 5.3 headphones featuring 40mm gold-plated drivers (20-40kHz) and LDAC support for high-res audio, designed for 40-hour battery life and comfort via 240g lightweight construction with memory foam ear cups. Key pros include effective Voice Chamber AI noise reduction for calls, 360-degree XROUND Lite surround sound, multi-device multipoint connection, and a low-latency mode. Main cons are that the XROUND Lite surround sound does not work simultaneously with LDAC, the plastic build feels less premium compared to some competitors, and they may still feel warm over long periods.
