Critic Reviews

808 Audio Performer BT Review | PCMag

pcmag.com

The 808 Audio Performer BT headphones offer a stylish design with DJ-inspired swiveling earcups and the convenience of wireless or wired use. However, the sound quality leaves much to be desired, delivering a thin, overly sculpted audio profile with noticeable hiss at lower volumes. While it handles deep bass on some tracks well, the higher frequencies are exaggerated, resulting in a lackluster listening experience for bass enthusiasts. The headphones' comfort and lack of an auto-off feature also detract from their appeal. Overall, they face tough competition in their price range, making them a hard sell.

Review: 808 Audio's Performer BT Bluetooth headphones

newatlas.com

808 Audio's Performer BT headphones offer solid build quality and exceptional comfort, thanks to their Flex Fit ear cup technology. Battery life is commendable, and they perform well when wired, providing good sound for the price range. However, in Bluetooth mode, a noticeable digital hiss at lower volumes detracts from the listening experience, making them less appealing for wireless use. While the built-in microphone is serviceable, it excels when used with the detachable cable. Overall, the Performer BT headphones are a mixed bag, close to a great budget buy but ultimately fall short due to their Bluetooth shortcomings. Consider the non-Bluetooth model for better value.

808 Performer BT Headphones review - The Gadgeteer

the-gadgeteer.com

The 808 Performer BT Headphones offer a comfortable fit and decent sound quality, but fall short in delivering effective noise isolation. While the design is flexible and the controls are user-friendly, Bluetooth connectivity issues, especially with Android devices, mar the experience. The headphones struggle with interference from WiFi, making them less ideal for hybrid cell service users. If you're an iPhone user, you might have better luck, but for others, the wireless functionality could be a dealbreaker. Overall, these headphones are a mixed bag, providing some perks but also notable drawbacks.
