What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Battery figures are manufacturer claims and apply with lights off: up to 305 hours in Bluetooth mode and 227 hours in 2.4 GHz mode. The title's 305H figure should not be treated as an unconditional runtime. The listing is inconsistent about the advertised quad-mode connection count versus its three specifically described connection methods, and its nominal kit claim is not corroborated by the explicit contents list. Confirm the exact connection modes and selected listing contents before buying.

Customer feedback highlights comfort and build quality, while sound quality receives mixed reactions, with some customers pleased and others saying it fell short of expectations. For buyers considering the 305-gram over-ear design, comfort reports are relevant to extended sessions, but the mixed sound feedback means the listed THX spatial audio and driver claims should not be taken as a guarantee that the tuning will suit everyone.

Mixed feedback

Frequently asked questions

How long does the G5 MAX battery last?

Edifier claims up to 305 hours in Bluetooth mode and 227 hours in 2.4 GHz mode, with lights off. These are mode-specific manufacturer claims, not a single unconditional maximum.

What connection options are described?

The listing specifically describes 2.4 GHz wireless, Bluetooth 6.0 and USB-C wired use. It also calls the headset quad-mode, but does not clearly explain a fourth mode, so confirm that detail if it matters.

What is included in the box?

The explicit contents list names the headset, microphone, receiver, USB-C to USB-A cable and user manual. The listing's nominal kit claim is not corroborated by that list, so check the selected offer for the exact bundle.

What do customers report about it?

Customer feedback highlights comfort and build quality, while sound quality feedback is mixed. The reported sound experience may be especially relevant if audio tuning is a priority alongside the listed spatial-audio features.
