Got a new iPhone - either an iPhone 7, iPhone 8 or iPhone X - and aren't a big fan of bluetooth devices on your head?

these might be the best lightning
0:01
connector earbuds on the market let's
0:03
check them out Dave Taylor here and I
0:13
want to talk about audio but I want to
0:15
talk about audio specifically for modern
0:17
iPhones because the 7 the 8 and soon the
0:21
10 have one thing in common and that is
0:24
no audio jack no 3.5 millimeter plug
0:28
crazy right well not so much because it
0:31
turns out you can use Bluetooth devices
0:33
and there's a ton of bluetooth
0:35
headphones out there that are really
0:37
nice but you can also use your lightning
0:39
connector and your phone comes with a
0:41
little teeny tiny adapter I actually
0:44
really can't stand that and it's like
0:46
the worst adapter I've ever seen from
0:48
Apple because it's so thin the wire is
0:51
so flimsy I'm convinced that even just a
0:54
couple of days of use the things going
0:55
to be trashed turns out though that some
0:58
companies are actually designing
1:00
headphones with a lightning connector
1:03
instead of a 3.5 millimeter connector
1:05
and that's really smart so what I'm
1:08
looking at right now is I'm looking at
1:10
the one more dual driver active noise
1:13
cancellation lightning in ear headphones
1:17
has a mouthful the most important piece
1:19
of this though is that the connector on
1:22
these is actually a lightning connector
1:24
this is an MFI certified lightning
1:26
connector so they've really done it
1:27
right it's gonna work perfectly honestly
1:30
with every Apple device that has a
1:32
lightning connector so this will work
1:33
with an iPad no worries you don't have
1:36
to worry about it only being for the
1:38
latest generation of iPhone or anything
1:40
it work with anything which is really
1:42
good because boy it sounds great but
1:44
before we get there let me just show you
1:46
the Box really quickly because one more
1:48
always does a great job with their
1:50
packaging so comes in an outer envelope
1:52
and then you pull that out and you get
1:54
this looks a little bit like a book and
1:57
you open this up and you can see that it
2:00
actually has space for the headphones
2:03
themselves it has a little leather
2:06
carrying pouch it's actually more like a
2:08
box I think it would work really well
2:10
for slightly smaller than normal play
2:13
cards and then it comes with a ton of
2:16
different ear tips in fact there are
2:18
four secure ear tips and four pillow ear
2:22
tips so there's eight choices other than
2:25
the pair that actually show up by
2:27
default on your actual headphones now
2:31
this has some other really cool tricks
2:34
up its sleeve so let me get it apart and
2:38
of course like anything with wires yeah
2:41
I can tangle but it's pretty easy to
2:42
untangle they have a tangle free wire
2:45
here and it's sort of I don't know it's
2:49
almost like a fabric cover to it it's
2:51
it's a nice it all feels really strong
2:53
and so then on the ear parts the earbuds
2:57
themselves these actually the right one
3:00
has a little microphone in line so
3:02
that's an easy way to tell which one
3:04
goes in which year and then the other
3:06
ones for your left ear and then what's
3:08
really cool is that hang on I can't talk
3:12
with those in my ear but what's really
3:14
cool is that they have this inline
3:16
controller that is deceptively
3:18
sophisticated because you look at it and
3:20
you say one button seriously one button
3:23
but it's not a button it's actually like
3:25
a little teeny tiny joystick and you can
3:27
move it in different directions to get
3:30
different functionality and you can push
3:32
it so this one control lets you manage
3:35
answer or hang up on phone calls
3:37
remember it has a microphone sounds
3:39
really nice on phone calls volume up and
3:42
down pause or play and next or previous
3:45
track all controlled by that one button
3:48
and on the side of the control is how
3:51
you can turn on and off active noise
3:53
cancellation now if you don't know what
3:55
ANC is it's really slick so a lot of
3:58
companies talk about what they call
4:00
passive noise cancellation and what that
4:02
basically means is that it's gonna cover
4:04
your ears so well or be in your ears so
4:08
firmly that you can't hear anything else
4:10
and that's not really great nor is that
4:13
generally very comfortable active noise
4:16
cancellation means the system has its
4:18
own circuitry where it's monitoring the
4:21
ambient sound around you and cancelling
4:24
out those waves so what
4:26
this means is that if you plug this into
4:28
your phone and then you put them in your
4:30
ears you don't even need to turn on any
4:33
music and you will automatically and
4:35
instantly hear all the background sound
4:38
just sort of recedes which is really
4:40
nice now turns out the actual audio is
4:44
way better than that because this is
4:46
high res audio even if you don't have a
4:48
high res audio source if you're just
4:50
using your phone it's gonna sound really
4:52
terrific as with all of these sort of
4:55
headphones I will tell you experiment
4:57
with different ear tips to get the ones
4:58
that fit you the best but I can tell you
5:01
these are some of the best sounding ear
5:03
tip headphones earbuds whatever you want
5:06
to call them these are some of the best
5:08
sounding units I've ever plugged into my
5:10
phone and I really really like these and
5:13
these are the one more dual drivers and
5:15
what else can I tell you the microphone
5:17
the inline microphone is actually a MEMS
5:19
microphones so it has some sophisticated
5:22
circuitry to get rid of echoed get rid
5:24
of some background ambient noise too and
5:27
here's the other thing that's really
5:28
amazing is they actually have a DAC
5:30
built into this - now that's a digital
5:33
analog converter and that's a generally
5:35
high-end audio piece that gives you more
5:38
dynamic Headroom and more sound and just
5:41
a richer fuller sound and it's built in
5:43
so it's like yet another reason these
5:45
sounds so good when you listen to your
5:47
music so let me just talk a little bit
5:50
about the sound
5:51
these have a really full and shockingly
5:56
good bass response and it's not
5:58
thumpy bass like a disco some headphone
6:01
companies will tune their devices to
6:04
give it like that discotheque or
6:06
dancehall sort of sound this just has a
6:08
really full rich response all the way
6:11
from very low frequencies all the way up
6:13
to the highs without it being rich I
6:16
mean sorry without it being too bright
6:19
or tinny so you can turn these up pretty
6:21
loud and they're gonna sound really
6:23
really good I don't recommend listening
6:25
super loud but you can do that with
6:27
these and even at a low volume they
6:30
sound really nice I really really am
6:32
impressed with these so before I tell
6:35
you about the price let me ask you two
6:37
things one please click the subscribe
6:39
bribe button and - if you don't mind
6:42
also click that thumbs up if you can see
6:44
it because I appreciate when you vote up
6:46
my up my videos very handy now the only
6:50
thing left to talk about with these is
6:52
the price and these are the one more
6:54
dual driver lightning connector
6:56
headphones and on Amazon they'll set you
6:59
back a hundred and forty-nine
7:01
ninety-nine but you know what if you
7:03
want to hear really good audio and you
7:05
listen to music all the time that is not
7:08
much of an investment to really get
7:10
something you will unquestionably enjoy
7:12
so this is Dave Taylor I'm heading back
7:15
to my music now and I'll catch you in my
7:17
