Final pack award-winning technology into its latest UX2000 affordable ANC headphone
Final was one of the big surprises for me last year. Their headphones are not only affordable, but arguably cheap, yet the sound quality they produce is anything but.
The UX2000 ANC headphones are wireless (Bluetooth 5.3), but they also pack in low latency, which is a definite advantage for gamers.
I currently rock a pair of outstanding Cleer Audio Alpha Bluetooth headphones as my PC daily drivers, but even these amazing headphones suffer with latency of up to 100ms. That number isn’t game-breaking, but it’s certainly noticeable. The Final UX2000 headphones are designed to significantly reduce that latency, whilst still providing the proven Final level of quality to the audio reproduction.
We’ve reviewed several Final products, and each time I’ve been impressed by the quality of the sound. With its lower-priced range, Final sensibly eliminates cost by removing unnecessary frills and design extravagances, concentrating on the quality of the drivers first and foremost, and it has paid off every time.
Contrary to this, the UX2000 are a beautiful-looking set of headphones, with ANC and solid battery life included, yet they’ve still kept the price below £100. If the sound quality can match or even exceed that of Final’s in-ear budget offerings, these headphones could demolish the competition when it comes to the price-to-performance metric.
Our review sample is on the way, but in the meantime, check out Final’s press blast for their new over-ear headphones:

Products such as earphones and headphones belong to a category known as current electrical appliances whose value is the greatest when they are brand new. We, however, would like to create earphones and headphones that people have an affinity for and continue to use in much the same way they have with a mechanical wristwatch, the kind that will be valued as an antique in the future. To that end, it is necessary to embody the design of the product and the way in which it is considered, including the repair system, as a concrete organization or structure.
Our brand concept is simple and has not changed since the company’s inception – “The comprehensive pursuit of things that are fundamentally right”. In our pursuit of this, we have actively adopted cutting edge technology such as 3D printers. We believe that such a pursuit is what creates a brand.
