Marshall has engineered a new pair of earbuds designed for those who prioritize blocking out background noise above all else. The Motif II ANC features the brand’s advanced noise cancellation technology, allowing users to switch between modes to immerse themselves in music one moment and turn it off for a quick conversation the next.
The buds pack Marshall’s signature high-quality sound, along with a microphone that supports Bluetooth LE Audio. The brand has also increased its streaming range for Bluetooth connectivity and amplified audio syncing.
As for battery life, the Motif II ANC offers 10 hours of consistent playtime. With the charging case, the buds grant users up to 30 hours of total use. When in a rush, a quick charge mode boosts the buds with one hour of playtime after just 15 minutes of charging.
Material-wise, Marshall is making an effort to be more sustainable with the case and buds both constructed out of 70% recycled plastic, taken from used water bottles and other electronics.
The Marshall Motif II ANC is available for pre-order now, priced at $199 USD per pair. Orders will begin shipping out on September 12.
