Creative SXFI Air

Smart, comfortable design ; Impressive SXFI audio technology ; Good connectivity

Bluetooth audio lags on games and video ; Fiddly set-up process ; No carrying case

Creative’s SXFI Air headphones make an impressive debut, although the SXFI audio tech works best with a wired connection and Bluetooth performance is more modest.

Wide soundstage ; MicroSD card slot ; Integrated SXFI

The setup process ; Latency over Bluetooth ; iPhone app is still MIA

Creative's Super XFi headphone holography platform is expanding by the day - and its newest entry, the SXFI Air, is already making waves.

Incredibly comfortable protein leather earcups ; Personalised sound highlights ; Multiple connection options ; High quality microphone

Default sound isn't as rich as other headsets ; Lacks true low-latency wireless

An interesting upgrade over its predecessor, which adds Bluetooth convenience to an already fantastic headset. Comfort and quality is good and we only have miror moans.

Super X-Fi successfully expands the soundstage and adds richness and depth to music and movies ; Battle Mode delivers super accurate positional audio in FPS games ; Works with PC, Mac and most major consoles

No dedicated microphone mute button ; Kevlar-reinforced USB cable is too stiff ; Headband could use more padding ; SXFI magic only works via USB ; USB-C location gets in the way of CommanderMic boom when used together

Standalone music player thanks to built-in microSD card reader ; Pretty good all-around performance ; Good value for wireless headphones

Bass can be a little dry ; Super X-Fi effect sometimes causes vocals to be overpowered.

Ausstattung; Klang-Möglichkeiten; Sprachqualität; Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis

kurze Akkulaufzeit; Super SXFI-Klang nicht immer passend; Maximallautstärke begrenzt

God bærekomfort. Kan brukes trådløst med mobilen. Avslørende lyd.

Lyden er anstrengende. Oppsettet av SXFI er kronglete. Ikke trådløs lyd i spill.
