Marshall Minor III True Wireless Bluetooth Earphones, Earbuds - Black

Product Information

Clarity is good, but the Marshall Major III don’t offer quite the sound scale of the very best at the price. It’s also a bummer that the Minor III isn’t compatible with the Marshall app, which would have given users access to an EQ, firmware updates, battery level indicators for both buds, and a Find My Buds option. Multipoint technology to pair the buds to two devices simultaneously did not make the cut. Marshall Minor III review: Verdict Where these headphones fall down is in the bass department, with slightly rolled-off frequencies which bassheads probably won’t appreciate. We tried out James Blake’s ‘If The Car Beside You Moves Ahead’ to put the bass frequencies to the test, and found the usually-body-thumping bass drum was pretty underwhelming. However, for general use, the sound is warm and balanced enough to give you a great listening experience.

If you love the Marshall-inspired design then go ahead. However, if the priority is the best sound quality for your money, then look elsewhere. Verdict The first pair of Major IIIs that Marshall sent in actually had an issue with the headband, resulting in deformations. It was likely a one-off, but is a pitfall of a weaker structure as opposed to a single continuous piece of metal, as seen in the MID headphones. Bluetooth 5.2 keeps connectivity stable when within range (30 feet), which is standard for most wireless earbuds; other models like the Razer Hammerhead True Wireless (2021) can achieve 50 feet of wireless listening. The good news is that the connection remains strong when within range, allowing you to hop from room to room without any dropout.

Should you buy Marshall Minor III?

At the same time, it’s hard to look past the Minor III’s shortcomings. Copying the AirPods design means taking on their flaws such as unstable fit, and I didn’t expect comfort to be fatiguing. Playtime should be at least 1 to 2 hours higher, especially when there are zero software features available, not even Siri or Google Assistant. Furthermore, having no access to the Marshall app is a headscratcher. While great for music, the Minor III’s sound quality is inconsistent with videos. When bingeing YouTube from my MacBook Pro, occasional static would occur that made it tough to sit through sport segments and movie trailers. This was less of an issue when watching videos from my Android device (Samsung Galaxy Note S20 Ultra). When static wasn’t present, audio was clear and there was no latency. The Marshall Major III are less sturdy and premium-feeling than the MID, however. Where the latter sports a solid, all-metal headband, the Major IIIs have plastic hinges, and the headband pares right down to just spokes by the cups.

Such guitars sound more pronounced through these headphones than rivals such as the AKG Y50BT or Urbanista Seattle Wireless.

Bright sound, very limited functionality

Design is the most important element of the Marshall Major III, so let’s start by taking a tour of the Marshall amp-inspired bits. There are wireless and non-wireless versions of the Marshall Major III. I’ve tried both, and there’s quite a price disparity between them.

The fourth-generation Major IV possess all of the style we’ve come to expect from Marshall, while more than doubling the battery life of their predecessor. They’ve also undergone a few smart design tweaks, making them an attractive option for those seeking eye-catching, on-ear cans. Tai nghe Marshall Minor III được trang bị kết nối không dây với chuẩn Bluetooth 5.2, một chuẩn Bluetooth mới nhất hiện nay. Khoảng cách kết nối thì lên tới 10m kết hợp với khả năng truyền tải dữ liệu nhanh chóng, ổn định luôn đáp ứng được nhu cầu của người dùng. It’s been ten years since Marshall released its first pair of headphones, the Marshall Major. Over the course of the decade, the Major series has dropped its 3.5mm cable in favour of a Bluetooth connection, but the basic premise remains unchanged: on-ear headphones created to reflect the renowned guitar amp manufacturer’s heritage.For example, the inner part of the cup pad uses a smoother, softer synthetic leather, plus there’s ultra-soft velour inside the pad’s hole. Passive noise cancellation is never a strong point of on-ear headphones, but the Marshall Major IIIs are particularly disappointing in this regard. We tried them in the office and could still easily hear people’s conversations, meaning you’d have to really blast your music if you wanted to drown out the outside world. There’s no active noise cancellation option offered here, which isn’t surprising considering this is seen as more of an entry level pair from Marshall. For active noise cancellation, you’re going to have to stump up the cash for the enjoyable and premium Marshall Mid ANCs. In addition, the Major III aren’t as well built, or attractive, as the MID Bluetooth, currently available for just a little more.

Controls are equally simple to navigate. Marshall has taken a “less is more” approach, and I can’t fault the execution. A single multidirectional knob on the right earpad handles all of your key commands. Pressing and holding the knob powers the Major IV on or off, with a single press playing or pausing audio.

With a straight band and heavily padded on-ear cushions, the headphones are designed to be comfortable for long periods of time, although we did experience a little discomfort from the pressure on ears after a long listening session. If you also have this problem with on-ear headphones, we’d recommend opting for over-ear headphones, which are usually more comfy, surrounding your ears rather than being placed on top of them. One time, an earbud fell out as I was flushing, narrowly missing the toilet. I’ve never experienced that with other wireless earbuds. If I talked or made any facial expressions, the buds would fall out, too. As dramatic as this may sound, were these earbuds actually tested on real people? Because it doesn’t feel like it.
