Though there are cheaper and more effective ANC headphones out there, the Urbanista Miami have them beat for style and battery life

Attractive design and colour options; Superb battery life; Impressive bass reproduction;

Mediocre ANC; Mids and treble lack detail;

Good looks, interesting colours, great build quality and frankly epic battery life goes a long way to making the Urbanista Miami look the real deal. But - and this is unusual for Urbanista - there are some sonic shortcomings to be accommodated if you want to get to all the good Miami stuff.

Urbanista has exceeded expectations with its first pair of noise-cancelling over-ear headphones – they’re an easy recommend for those on a budget, who don’t want to sacrifice style or sound performance. Noise cancellation itself isn’t the best on the market, and while the audio could be more detailed, an extended bass response makes the Urbanista Miami ideal for pop and RnB. Battery life and connectivity are also decent for the price, making these a great alternative to pricier models such as the Sony WH-1000XM4 or the Apple AirPods Max.

Urbanista’s striking Miami headphones hit the right notes with their focused ANC performance, feature set and good audio quality. Their sound does display a bass-heavy quality and there are a few issues with the design, but aside from that the Miami are enjoyable headphones for the casual, lifestyle market.
