Final Headphones Shake the Market: Top Noise Cancelling, Endless Battery & Fair Price

Final headphones shake the market with top noise cancelling, long battery life, and prices that won’t break the bank.

When Sound Meets Reasonable Prices: The Final UX1000 and UX5000 Debut

If you’ve ever been enchanted by that unmistakable Japanese precision in audio gear, then Final’s latest releases are bound to pique your interest. The brand, already a darling among audiophiles for their impeccable sound quality, has just dropped two wireless over-ear headphones: the UX1000 and the UX5000.

The UX1000 is the everyman’s gateway—an entry-level model designed so that even casual listeners can get a taste of Final’s signature sound without emptying their wallets. Think of it as the friendly neighbor inviting you over for a sonic coffee chat.

On the other end, the UX5000 is the serious contender, blending Final’s premium engineering wizardry with modern wireless perks. Picture a 3D soundstage that wraps you like an old friend’s hug, balanced so perfectly you feel the music rather than just hear it. If UX1000 is to “listen,” then UX5000 is to “truly hear.” Can you feel the difference?

UX1000: Pure Sound, Practical Price

Priced at just $65 USD, the UX1000 pushes the boundaries of what budget headphones can do. It promises clean, natural sound across all music genres, paired with impressive longevity. The on-ear design folds neatly for easy transport, and the matte finish is both tough and resistant to fingerprints—a practical touch for everyday use.

Even more impressive, these budget-friendly headphones pack active noise cancellation (ANC) thanks to Final’s patented Hybrid ANC technology. They cleverly use forward and backward microphones to quiet your environment, letting you immerse fully in your tunes. And for those moments you want to stay aware, a simple button switches to Ambient mode, letting external sounds in.

Connectivity is smooth with Bluetooth 5.4 and multipoint connection, so you can juggle your phone, tablet, or laptop with ease. Supported codecs include SBC and AAC, delivering standard wireless sound quality.

Battery life? It’s a marathon runner. Up to 70 hours with ANC off and a solid 40 hours with ANC on. That’s notably better than popular Sony WH-CH520 headphones, which clock in at 50 hours without noise cancelling. Talk about going the distance.

UX5000: Premium Sound for the Discerning Ear

Now, step up to the UX5000 at around $250 USD. These headphones sport a newly engineered 40mm dynamic driver featuring enhanced acoustic damping and refined filtering. Final claims this combo delivers high-resolution sound with stunning clarity, openness, and a natural tonal balance.

The internal sound chamber is finely tuned to give you crystal-clear highs, rich bass, and astonishing depth. It’s like having a mini concert hall snug on your ears.

On the tech front, the UX5000 runs on a Qualcomm QCC3095 wireless platform, supports LE Audio, and the coveted aptX Lossless codec for streaming up to 24-bit/48kHz quality using Snapdragon Sound. Audiophiles, rejoice!

Active noise cancelling is also here, with battery life offering 65 hours without ANC and 45 hours when it’s active. Comfort isn’t overlooked either—both pairs are lightweight with soft headbands and ear cushions designed for marathon listening sessions.

Colors? UX1000 comes in black or gray, while the premium UX5000 opts for sleek black only.

Availability and What’s Next?

Currently, both models are available in the UK and USA, with Australia set to get them next year. Pricing for Australia hasn’t been announced yet, but considering the value here, anticipation is high.

"If UX1000 is to 'listen,' then UX5000 is to 'truly hear.'"
