www.digitaltrends.com
1More has just released its latest ultra-affordable set of noise-canceling headphones and, as weve become accustomed to, its managed to pack even more features for the same price. The SonoFlow SE HQ31 cost $60 the same price as the SonoFlow SE HQ30 and add wired/wireless hi-res audio compatibility, spatial audio, a claimed up-to-90 hour battery life, better noise cancellation, and wired connection options. They comes in four different colors and you can buy them right now on Amazon.The design has also undergone an evolution. Instead of the sharply defined edges of previous SonoFlow models, like the original version and the Pro HQ51, the HQ31 features rounded countours, making them look a little more like Soundcores Life series of wireless headphones.1MoreThey still fold up and fold flat, but you wont get a travel case or pouch. In the box, youll find the headphones and two cables: USB-A to USB-C for charging and USB audio, and a USB-C to 3.5mm cable for analog wired connections. In terms of convenience, this is the biggest upgrade over the HQ30, which only supported wireless audio via Bluetooth.Recommended VideosLike the SonoFlow Pro HQ51, the HQ31 is hi-res audio capable. That means the drivers are able to reproduce high frequencies up to 40kHz. They also support Sonys LDAC Bluetooth codec, which (under ideal conditions) will transmit up to 24-bit/96kHz hi-res audio from a compatible Android phone to the headphones (iPhones arent compatible with LDAC).Please enable Javascript to view this content1More says it has improved the capability of its QuietMax noise cancellation tech in the HQ31, with up to 42dB of noise suppression for certain frequencies.The claimed battery life on the HQ30 was already very impressive at up to 70 hours with ANC off (50 hours with it on), and the HQ31 bumps this up even further, with up to 90 hours of non-ANC, non-LDAC life. With ANC, that drops to 60 hours. 1More hasnt told us how much of a hit battery life takes when you use LDAC, but in our experience you can expect up to 30% less playtime.Finally, the HQ31 also add 1Mores spatial audio mode, that creates a wider soundstage, for a more immersive listening experience.1Mores official regular price on the SonoFlow SE HQ31 is $60, however Amazon has priced them at $50 an at the moment, its offering a 20% off instant coupon, making these wireless cans just $40.Editors Recommendations
