B&O Play by Bang & Olufsen has a new entry-level model in its expanding line of premium Bluetooth wireless headphones. At $300 (£249, $AU 399), I wouldn't call the Beoplay H4 a bargain, but it did surprise me with how good it sounded.

The B&O Play by Bang and Olufsen H4 is a very comfortable; excellent-sounding Bluetooth headphone with decent battery life

It doesn't come with a carry case and has a small annoying quirk with the power button as well as an expensive price for a headphone with no active noise-cancellation

Purists seeking flat response will generally love the higher frequency signature of the Beoplay H4, but perhaps wish that the deepest bass frequencies were dialed back slightly. Those who value crisp detail in the highs but also appreciate the subtle thunder a well-tuned subwoofer can add to it,...

Excellent audio performance with bright, detailed highs and deep, rich bass; Exceptionally comfortable over-ear fit; Handsome design with luxurious materials

Light on accessories

I had hoped the H4s were the ones. Most headphones are boring and ugly, but maybe, I thought, the H4s' orange color could change my headphone game. I'm in desperate need of a new pair that work well and are stylish, so I tested the H4s for nearly two weeks and can confirm they're showstoppers.

Adventurous; bright color; Good battery life; Bluetooth works well; Comfortable even when wearing glasses

Plastic exterior feels cheap and color starts wearing off quickly; Muddy sound; A collapsible design or a case would make them friendlier to commuters; Poor call quality when used as a headset

Always wanted a pair of wireless B&Os but couldn't afford the premium price The new Beoplay H4 Wireless Headphones (S$399) are more affordable yet retaining much of the premium build of its more costly siblings (shoutout to the H7 and H9).

When I first heard that B&O Play was coming up with a "low cost" model for its line of Bluetooth headphones, I was excited. Thus when the BeoPlay H4 was readied for the Singapore market, I wasted no time requesting for a review unit.

The Beoplay H4 Wireless Headphones are some of the best in their class. Although you do pay a bit of a premium for them, they outperformed all similarly priced headphones that we've tried. What we liked most about them was their signature sound.

When I heard about a wireless, affordable, Bang and Olufsen headphone I was ecstatic. Let's check out if their latest make is worth all the hype in our Bang and Olufsen Beoplay H4 Review.

Great headphones, lightweight with excellent sound reproduction. while lacking noise reduction, these are meant for reproduction of the sound and not blanking out sounds...

Light weight; sound; wireless; battery

Over the past few years, B&O Play has set about quietly making itself one of the main competitors to Beats in the audio space.

Stylish looks; Solid; refined bass; Comfortable

Bass has potential to overwhelm; Potentially confusing controls; Poor noise isolation

The B&O Beoplay H4 is the best headphones I have ever owned and let me tell you I have owned a lot of headphones in the past. I get the feeling that these are going to last me a very long time. I like the minimalist design and the use of genuine materials.
