| 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. Nobody wants to invest in earphones that distort or muffle the sounds of the music you know and love. The sound quality of your earphones should always be of the highest standard, whether you are working on music with the help of an artificial drum sound produced from the Beatbuddy found at www.singularsound.com just chilling listening to your favorite rift, or guilty pleasure. Getting the right tools is essential.
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
• 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.
