Moondrop Edge
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- If you want something decent under 100$ and it has to be an over-ear with ANC, get the Moondrop Edge.
- If you want wireless try Moondrop Edge
- Here I am, using the edge and thinking the cups are huge and have a lot more room for my ears than other Bluetooth headphones I’ve used. XD
- These are very well tuned for a headphone under 100$. Natural, vocal-forward, certainly not bassy or shouty.
Cons
- Got these as well and they are definitely shouty for my taste. No custom EQ is a huge downside. Otherwise, they are fine. Also, they definitely are loud enough.
- I bought it on day one and return it back straight away, the bass simply wasn't there, but the vocal section definitely the strongest point, it wasn't cup of my tea unfortunately
- I imported them from HiFiGo a few weeks ago and haven't really been all that thrilled. I've been considering making a post/mini-review outlining why.
- It's fine, a little sharp at times, but if you EQ up the lower minds it's alright
- These are not very loud at all. At High gain, 80-90% volume is loud enough for me on most tracks, but for some even 100% is not enough.

The outer part of the earcup is unfortunately a fingerprint magnet; Button placement is not intuitive (Volume Up is below Volume down for some reason), and it’s hard to tell which is which because the buttons don’t protrude that much; They’re supposed to be foldable but don’t really fold all the way in
