The editors didn't like
Swivel earcups nice idea
But not practical
Plastic build
Connectivity bugs
Touch controls need work
Meager mobile features
Plastic-heavy build
Not for those seeking a modern (boosted) bass response
There's no integrated microphone for making cell phone calls and the bulkier design makes them less suitable for mobile use
Prone to leakage at higher volumes
Poor noise isolation performance
No inline remote or phone controls on the cables. Even with the new mobilefriendly short cable
The big and bulky overtheear design isn't entirely mobilefriendly. They fold
But not much
So they're tough to travel with. Probably too heavy for walking aro
Some Bluetooth awkwardness
No aptX-HD

Be the first one
Pretty standard design
No tactile feedback when pressing the left earcup for voice assistant
Great sound quality, Smooth mids, Comfortable, Great price
Clunky design, Treble frequencies could be clearer
Overall, the ATH-M50xBTs are a fantastic pair of headphones, with impressive sound quality, connectivity, and comfort. Compared to similar high-spec models, they are pretty good value for money at $199 (£179 / AU$379), particularly as they have wireless f...

Lively, engaging sound, Relatively affordable, Good for EDM
Not neutral-sounding, No wireless option, Proprietary audio cable
If the thought of phones losing their 3.5mm sockets and just about all headphones going wireless makes you sigh, check out the Audio Technica ATH-M50X. They are classic headphones given just a little tweak to make them play nice with phones. Don't buy the...
Decent detail, Good separation, Good sense of life
Sounds a little thick, Could do with greater clarity and dynamic punch
If you're looking for a portable pair of over-ears and you like your sound a little warm, for the money, the Audio Technica ATH-M50x are well worth checking out....

Accessible price, no compromise neutral audio experience, immediately comfortable to wear, solid build and ample padding
Largely plastic construction, no controller on included cables, not ideal for on-the-go wear, ears get warm after extended use
Sometimes products exceed expectations, and the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x headphones are one such example. At first we didn't think these largely plastic-constructed headphones would achieve their "professional monitor headphones" label, but they abso...
Powerful bass, Good stereo imaging and separation, Great value among peers
Bass is somewhat overemphasised, Isolation could be better
Great sound and good comfort make the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x a smash. Isolation could be better, but they come highly recommended regardless. Next, check out the list of the best headphones in the world....

There's no integrated microphone for making cell phone calls and the bulkier design makes them less suitable for mobile use
Quibbles aside, the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x is a modestly improved version of its already spectacular predecessor and one of the best-sounding headphones you'll find for less than $200....

Open, detailed sound, Studio-quality neutral sonic signature, Top-notch battery life, Wired listening sounds good, Comfortable and well-built
Micro-USB port for charging, Awkwardly positioned controls,
The Audio Technica ATH-M50xBT is a modern approach to a classic product, and an excellent one given the shift in consumer preference towards wireless listening. While audiophiles and traditionalists will always swear by wired headphones, the ATH-M50xBT of...
