The shift to wireless headphones has made the headsets commonplace but still expensive, so these new Sennheiser wired headphones have been developed to offer consumers an entry-level option.
The headphones include the Sennheiser CX 80U and the HD 400U that have earbud and over-ear designs, respectively, which will each connect to devices through a USB-C connection. The headphones thus strike a balance between fully wireless models and others that connect through a 3.5mm audio jack to work well for a wide variety of devices.
The Sennheiser wired headphones are priced at $40 for the earbuds and $100 for the over-ear model to give them each a cost-effective profile. The headphones are compatible with many operating systems including Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, Android, iOS, iPadOS and SteamOS.
