What Reviewers Are Saying
SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 79/100
Reviewers describe an enjoyable, pleasing, warm presentation, with one review specifically calling it spacious. However, the available coverage offers little detailed assessment of individual frequency ranges, fine detail, or dynamic performance.
Bass
80/100
The reported warm tuning suggests some welcome low-end body rather than a lean presentation. Reviews do not directly address bass extension, texture, control, or impact.
Midrange
78/100
The overall tuning is described as pleasing and enjoyable, which points to generally agreeable tonal balance. There is no direct discussion of vocal realism, instrument timbre, presence, or midrange coloration.
Treble
77/100
The reviews portray the EH11 as pleasant rather than harsh, but provide no specific comments on treble air, extension, smoothness, or fatigue. Its upper-frequency performance is therefore only lightly documented.
Resolution Detail
77/100
LDAC support is noted, but codec support alone does not establish resolving ability. The reviews do not directly assess low-level detail, separation, transparency, or layering.
Soundstage Imaging
88/100
Stereo Index explicitly describes the EH11 as spacious, an especially welcome quality in an affordable wireless headphone. The available comments do not further address image precision, depth, or placement.
Dynamics
77/100
The sound is characterized as enjoyable and groove-oriented, but there is little direct commentary on transient attack, punch, slam, or quiet-to-loud contrast. Dynamic capability is not closely explored in the supplied reviews.
Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Comfort Fit
50/100
The supplied reviews do not discuss clamp force, pad comfort, weight distribution, heat buildup, or long-session wearability. Fit and comfort remain largely undocumented.
Build Quality
55/100
Reviewers highlight the retro-futuristic presentation, wooden earcups, and tactile rotary controls. They say little about structural durability, hinges, pad longevity, or long-term reliability.
Features Usability
93/100
The EH11 offers Bluetooth 6.0 and LDAC, approximately 30 hours of battery life, a 1.5-hour charging time, physical rotary controls, and built-in parametric EQ. The wooden earcups that double as volume controls are described as a clever and tactile interface choice.
Value for Money
94/100
At less than $50, Headfonics calls the EH11 enjoyable and competitive for its price. Pragmatic Audio also describes it as remarkable value, particularly given its wireless feature set, EQ capability, and distinctive controls.

Expressing the retro-futurism aesthetic*
*Retro-Futurism: This is a style found in design, architecture, and art that merges historical retro elements with an imagination of the future. The shapes are typically geometrically simplified and possess a space-age feel. Elements frequently include materials such as high-gloss plastics, metals, and vintage components like old-fashioned buttons, levers, and knobs.
The wooden earcups also double as control knobs, recapturing the tactile pleasure of using classic equipment. Simply rotate the knob to control track skipping and volume for an intuitive experience. A perfect blend of ceremonial charm and effortless function.
Complete your street style
With these mini on-ear headphones
With a sleek, compact fit that perfectly complements your profile, these headphones seamlessly integrate with any style. Whether you are aiming for the Y2K trendsetter, sophisticated collegiate, or laid-back street vibe styles, these headphones are the essential finishing touch that defines your complete look.
High-fidelity 40mm dynamic driver Audio quality is not secondary to style
We've addressed the typical low-frequency leakage found in classic on-ear designs by implementing a bass-optimized driver in the EH11. These on-ear headphones' audio quality is anything but "retro", offering far more than just adequate sound. We selected a 40mm long-throw driver with a high-damping composite diaphragm to push the resonant frequency down to 60Hz. This allows the EH11 to achieve powerful, dynamic bass extending down to 17Hz, allowing it to capture the full spectrum of low-frequency instruments. You'll experience sharper attack and decay on drums, plus superior instrument separation and layered depth when enjoying intricate classical pieces.
Semi-open design V
entilated comfort and minimized sound leakage
The headphones’ semi-open design, with ventilation ports and damping filters, eliminates the “stuffy” feel typically associated with closed-back headphones. The result is a more open soundstage, clearer mid-to-high frequencies, as well as more natural and transparent vocals. Compared to fully open-backed headphones, the damping system controls air flow to minimize sound leakage.
LDAC hi-res Bluetooth support Near-lossless audio quality
The EH11 supports the LDAC High-Definition Bluetooth encoding format*. With a transmission rate of up to 990 kbps, which is roughly three times that of standard Bluetooth formats (SBC/AAC), LDAC carries significantly more raw audio data during transmission - resulting in near-lossless sound quality. As one of the select few Bluetooth codecs in wireless transmission to receive the Hi-Res Wireless certification, it is widely recognized in the industry as a premium high-resolution Bluetooth standard.
* To use this feature, your source device (phone) must support LDAC output. Due to the larger volume of data transferred, using LDAC will result in a marginally higher power draw. The format is enabled by default, but can be deactivated via the FIIO Control App.
Long-lasting 30 hours of battery life Uninterrupted music playback
Charge for just 2 hours and enjoy up to 30 hours of playback. Say goodbye to battery life anxiety and have music playing wherever you go.
Portable and lightweight design
Take it out with zero hassle
Tipping the scales at merely about 92g and with a gentle clamping force of only about 1.7N, these headphones are light enough to vanish on your head, ensuring fatigue-free long listening sessions. Enjoy the sensation of music floating around your ears with cloud-like comfort.
Say no to interruptions Supports simultaneous dual-device connections
These headphones can stay connected to two Bluetooth devices at once, like your PC and phone, allowing for seamless transitions between watching shows and gaming. This removes the need to constantly re-pair devices, allowing you to enjoy uninterrupted, immersive listening.

Specially tuned gaming sound effects
Optimized for gaming scenarios
The specially tuned sound effects for gaming scenarios* enhance the footstep and gunfire experience.
