Music-Lover Must-Have: Marshall Minor II Bluetooth Earphones/Headset review

Music-Lover Must-Have: Marshall Minor II Bluetooth Earphones/Headset review

So have you seen Tiger King on Netflix? Are you also convinced that Carole Baskin fed her husband to her tigers? LOL kidding aside: as you know, I am a music lover (and perhaps, an audiophile too). So after owning a Marshall Killburn speaker for about 3 years now, I had no doubt that Marshall's earphones/headset will also be exceptional. My pick? The Minor II Bluetooth Earphones in Brown!

My husband and I love music so much that we really invest in good quality speakers and earphones. We love hearing every detail in a song, especially them bass lines.

And for us, among the best manufacturers of good and premium-quality speakers is Marshall. They've been making music amplifiers since 1962 so these guys definitely know what they're doing when it comes to amplifiers, speakers, and even earphones.

I originally wanted a Major III Bluetooth headphones (because it's amazing, and is even more amazing with its new Voice feature), but I'm not exactly a headphone-person, so I decided to go for a Minor II Bluetooth Earphones instead.

Marshall Minor II Bluetooth Earphones/Headset Unboxing:

I've been using it for 6 months now, and I've never been more contented with an earphone. It's kind of a big deal coming from me because I was really picky—it took me almost 6 months to finally decide and commit to my chosen one because my ears are small and in-ear earphones hurt. I also am not ready for 100% wireless earphones. 😅

Marshall Minor II Bluetooth Earphones PROS:

• 12 hours of wireless playtime

• Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity up to 30 feet

• Iconic and classic Marshall design

• High-quality sound: rich highs, crisp mids, and clear, balanced bass

• Charges real quick: 20 minutes of charging gives you 2 hours of playtime

• Ear-fit system provides a snug fit for me small ears

• Magnetic pause function: music is automatically paused by attaching the two earpieces together (via magnet)

• Built-in microphones: wirelessly answer, reject or end a call

Marshall Minor II Bluetooth Earphones CONS:

• Not totally wireless as compared to Airpods

• Wire is a bit short

• Quite pricey

• No noise cancellation nor isolation

• Not gym-friendly: not water or sweat-resistant

• Charging is via micro USB

• Microphone is not that good during audio/video calls

• The multi-directional control knob is not very reliable: it's basically a flat joystick

The verdict:

I'd still choose the Marshall Minor II Bluetooth Earphones over other Bluetooth earphones that are not in-ear because it works and suits me best. I've done extensive research before purchasing this, and until now, I've no regret owning one because it met the following criterias I have set:

• Snug fit/comfortability
• Over-all quality
• Aesthetic

So if you're like me who prioritizes the aforementioned things when looking for a Bluetooth earphone, then definitely, the Marshall Minor II Bluetooth Earphones is for you.
