The Beyerdynamic Free Byrd have plenty to recommend them — not least their lively overall sound — but at the price better overall ANC performance can be found elsewhere.

As Beyerdynamic’s first attempt in the true wireless market, the Free BYRD appear to err on the safe side. There’s plenty that they get right, and not much they get wrong, with the result an enjoyable pair of true wireless buds to use and listen, but which don’t stand out much from the rest of the pack. Here’s hoping that Beyerdynamic builds on this solid foundation for whenever the sequel appears.
