All of these are over-ear headphones, with the ear cup going around the ear, rather than sitting on top. While their smaller size can lead to a reduction in sound quality, noise isolation and comfort, the compact size makes on-ear headphones great for travel. While there are options from the likes of Beats, Sony, JBL, Skullcandy and Soundcore, there are currently no stand-out go to recommendations for on-ear headphones. Beyerdynamic&#8217;s latest headphones may well change that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/beyerdynamic-aventho-100\/\">Announced earlier this month,<\/a> the AVENTHO 100 are the long-awaited sequel to the original AVENTHO headphones launched in 2017. While they keep a similar style and drivers, Beyerdynamic&#8217;s update brings ANC, increased battery life and a revamped design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"beyerdynamic | AVENTHO 100 - Iconic Look.

Underneath, in a small box, you&#8217;ll find the soft carry bag housing the 3.5mm aux cable and USB-C to USB-A charging cable. There&#8217;s also a quick start guide and compliance booklet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"1280\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4358-Large.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"105408\" data-link=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=105408\" class=\"wp-image-105408 lazyload\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4363.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"105409\" data-link=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=105409\" class=\"wp-image-105409 lazyload\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"1280\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4376-Large.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"105410\" data-link=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=105410\" class=\"wp-image-105410 lazyload\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Design<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The AVENTHO 100 won the 2025 Red Dot Design Award, and I can see why. The headphones look as great in person as the photos make out. They come in black, brown and cream. All three options feature an aluminum frame stucture and textile cables. Both the black and brown options have black plastic, while the cream has a lighter overall look. The synthetic leather covering the memory foam headband and earpads is color matched to the product. We got them in brown for that classic leather and authentic vintage styling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4402-Large.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-105415 lazyload\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The earcups rotate and fold for compact storage, however they rotate flat what I consider to be the wrong way. When hung around your neck, they rotate to face outwards. The earpads are easily replaceable, with a counterclockwise twist unlocking them. They take a little bit of force, but as a result are sturdy when in place. There&#8217;s a little arrow which helps align the pad when twisting it back on. The ability to switch pads allows you to keep the headphones looking fresh or customize them with non-standard colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4400.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"105412\" class=\"wp-image-105412 lazyload\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4428-Large.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"105413\" data-link=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=105413\" class=\"wp-image-105413 lazyload\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There are four buttons and a Bluetooth LED on the right earcup. The left earcup has a USB-C port, 3.5mm audio jack and charging LED.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4425-Large.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-105414 lazyload\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the aluminum elements, the smaller size gives them a slightly lighter weight than most popular over-ear headphones. The AVENTHO 100 weigh around 220 grams, while the Sony WH-1000XM6 and Bose QuietComfort Ultra both weigh around 250 grams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4380-Large.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-105411 lazyload\"\/><figcaption>Compared alongside the Sony WH-1000XM6<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The headphones come with a soft carry bag, which has a small pouch on the inside for cables. This is good for keeping scratches off the headphones, but won&#8217;t fully protect them like a hard case would.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4412-Large.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-105416 lazyload\" width=\"798\" height=\"598\"\/><figcaption>The bag compared alongside the Sony WH-1000XM6 case<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Personally, I love the way they look. I&#8217;ve already received a &#8220;fancy headphones&#8221; compliment, that my all-plastic Sony headphones can only dream of. There is a good amount of soft padding on the headband and earpads. That being said, they aren&#8217;t as comfortable as over-ear headphones, as they push my ears down rather going around the outside. The arms extend to fit my large head at the maximum length. If you have an extra large head, you may struggle with the fit of these headphones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Setup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The AVENTHO 100 feature Bluetooth 5.4, with support for multipoint. There&#8217;s Google Fast Pair, for one-touch pairing with Android devices. They support AAC and SBC codecs, as well as aptX Adaptive and aptX Lossless on compatible devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To set them up, a single press on the power button turned them on. Voice prompts told me I was in pairing mode and the battery status. They connected quickly to my iPhone. Opening the app, the headphones were quickly recognized and issued a firmware update. This claimed it would take 10 to 15 minutes, but ended up taking about 2 to 3 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was able to connect a second device by triple pressing the power button. This disconnected my iPhone, but multipoint means I could manually reconnect for connection to both devices simultaneously. Multipoint works on the AVENTHO 100, but requires pausing media on one device before it will allow you to play on the other, rather than switching automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a restart, the headphones automatically reconnected to both devices without prompting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Sound quality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I was pleasantly surprised by the sound of the AVENTHO 100. They sound great! They get fairly loud, with plenty of low end and stand up great, even when compared side-by-side against the Sony WH-1000XM6, only getting slightly beaten at maximum volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For calls, the headphones support Qualcomm cVc technology to isolate your voice in noisy environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Active noise cancellation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Without even powering them on, the AVENTHO 100 provide a decent level of passive noise isolation, but as expected, not as much as an over-ear pair of headphones. You&#8217;ll find both active noise cancellation and a transparency mode, which passes outside noise through to help you stay aware of your surroundings. You can switch between modes using the app or via the power button. Both ANC and transparency have three levels of power, which can be switched in the app. ANC does a decent job of canceling background noise. Transparency mode sounds realistic. With no music playing, there is an audible hiss when in ANC or transparency mode, but this is masked if you have any content playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Controls<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The AVENTHO 100 uses physical buttons rather than touch controls. There are four buttons on the right earcup. Power, which turns the headphones on or off with a hold, while a quick press will switch ANC mode. Volume up and volume down are self-explanatory. By default, the multifunction button will play\/pause\/answer\/end calls with a single press, summon the voice assistant\/reject calls with a hold, skip to the next track with a double press, and go to the previous track with a triple press. This can be customized using the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, the headphones do not feature wear detection to automatically play or pause music when they are placed on or removed from your head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4430.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-105417 lazyload\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Battery life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite lacking active noise cancellation, the original AVENTHO headphones had just 20 hours of playback. The new AVENTHO 100 go for up to 40 hours with ANC turned on and more than a whopping 60 hours with ANC turned off. A 15-minute charge can give you up to 15 hours of listening. The AVENTHO 100 also introduce a USB-C port for charging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For wired audio, there&#8217;s a 3.5mm audio jack, which can be used when the headphones are on, off or charging. This means you can make use of ANC when the headphones are on or keep listening even when the headphones are dead. When off, none of the buttons function. When on, the multifunction button does not work, and volume buttons do work, but are independent of the device&#8217;s volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The USB-C port does not support audio, but the headphones can be used in Bluetooth or wired over 3.5mm while charging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4429-Large.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-105418 lazyload\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>App<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The AVENTHO 100 can start playing music right away, but the optional &#8216;beyerdynamic&#8217; app provides additional tools for customization. At the top, you&#8217;ll see the battery percentage of the headphones, as well as an estimated number of hours of listening left, which is a neat feature that I haven&#8217;t seen on any other headphones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_4424.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-105403 lazyload\" width=\"293\" height=\"633\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In <em>EQ<\/em>, you&#8217;ll find four presets &#8211; Neutral, Bass, Smooth, and Loudness, which are represented in the equalizer.
