FiiO will come out quite soon with their first approach on a full size wireless noise cancelling headphone.

Since I personally am very interested in these cans because I'm in the market of buying my first wireless NC headphones, I did some research on them and this here is what I found so far. Actually the specs look very promising, which I find no surprise from FiiO, but the looks of the EH3 NC are... lets say in the best case... somewhat of an acquired taste IMO.

Lets go into some of its details (this is a translated copy/paste of the most recent Chinese FiiO sites. Links are at the end of this thread):

1. Support SBC/AAC/aptX/aptX LL/aptX HD/LDAC/HWA full format Bluetooth encoding
2. Flagship Qualcomm Bluetooth decoding chip CSR8675, Bluetooth 5.0
3. ADI professional noise reduction chip, feedforward Hybrid active noise reduction
4. 45mm strong magnetic double-sided titanium plated diaphragm
5. 50 hours battery life, 1000 hours standby
6. Removable polymer protein leather earmuffs
7. Support NFC one-touch function
8. FiiO Music APP intelligent control
9. Support USB DAC function
10. Support 3.5mm audio input

InChina, the people who pre-ordered successfully, can expect these cans to be delivered beginning NOV 1st 2019.

Looking very much forward for the first reviews and how they compare to the e.g. DALI iO-6, B&W PX7, Sennheiser Momentum 3,....

Here are some relevant pics:

They look very impressive. I can't wait until they are finally shipped out.

They can now be ordered at AliExpress:

€ 272,67 | FiiO Eh3 NC wireless hifi Bluetooth headset with CSR8675 chip, Active noise reduction chip, 45MM...

Says: only 5 available.

I'm curious since my good(sounding) old PSB M4U2s are disassembling ...
But money sadly doesn't grow on trees

 

[kgs51]

HiFIGO is selling them now at $199.99

 

[chrisba]

For me it says
$289.99 USD

 

[kgs51]

The price just changed

Fiio advertising 998 yuan which is 130 usd. Hifigo asking 290 usd seems excessive.

They're now available in the FiiO Official Store on Aliexpress for $169.99!

Thank you for the information

Just ordered! At this price this can't be totally wrong when you look only on the feature list. If they don't sound decently, they can be sold quite easily without much loss.

Let us know how they perform, am very interested myself but never ordered something this expensive through AliExpress

Me neither, but so far everything arrived here within max. three weeks. Let's see this time... Especially if customs is involved?

On the official FiiO Store at AliExpress you can find a lot more info about these cans.. sorry the share link doesn't work from there, I tried it. Please look for yourself.. and scroll down for the Infos!

Hello, it is impressive that they cost 170 dollars, they look very good and really comfortable, my doubt is if it is convenient to buy it if I am looking for headphones with cable. The bluetooth feature does not call me because I already have a Shaling UP2.

You can use them either with 3.5mm audio jack or via USB-C audio.

I'll make some screenshots from the AliExpress app in the following post... Just have to upload them somewhere
