This year, Lenovo is all set to release two new noise-cancelling headphones that will carry its Yoga moniker into the audio realm. The new headphones the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 ANC and Lenovo Yoga ANC will go on sale around June and July, respectively, and give a tough competition to the Microsoft Surface Headphones.
According to Lenovo, the on-ear headphones are determined to be companions for the company’s laptop series for which they’re named after, but they should still be able to work with any device, be it Windows, Android, iOS or else.
When it comes specifically to technical details, Lenovo says the headphones will use both traditional active noise-cancellation (ANC) and something called electronic noise-cancellation (ENC) that are used on the microphone to block out the noise and reduce disturbance when you’re actually making calls.
It is told that while other headphones are more centred on blocking out commuting or travelling noise, for example, the sound of a jet engine or drone of a bus, Lenovo’s headphones are mostly intended for office use.
That truth will help separate the Lenovo Yoga and ThinkPad X1 ANC from other similar style headphones like the Sony WH-1000XM3 and Bose QuietComfort 35 II, and brings puts them closer with the Microsoft Surface Headphones.
As per Digital Trends reports, when it comes to battery life, that they'll boast around 15 hours with noise-cancellation turned on and 20 hours while noise-cancellation off.
The Lenovo Yoga ANC will be available in July for $170 (around £129, AU$235), while the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 ANC will go on sale in Europe in June for around $150 (£115, AU$200) with a release in other territories to be determined.
