In recent years, the active noise reduction function has almost become a standard feature of TWS headphones. Currently on the market, almost all headphones that support active noise reduction are in-ear headphones, which makes it impossible for users who are unable to wear in-ear headphones for various reasons to experience the convenience brought by active noise reduction technology.

semi-in-ear headphones, smart noise reduction pioneer

After connecting the headphones to your mobile phone, you can set various functions of the headphones through the Baseus APP. The main interface of the APP shows the current battery status of the device, the noise reduction switch and various sound effect options. The second page of the APP is a preview of the location of the earphones, and also provides a function to find the earphones to make them sound. On the third page of the APP, users can upgrade the headset firmware and customize the control method.

In terms of sound effect selection, the Baseus APP provides up to 12 sound effect options for the Baseus Aurora Storm 3 headphones, covering different adjustments such as genre switching and three-band switching, providing a wealth of sound effect choices for EQ adjustment novices. In the third interface, users can choose whether to turn on in-ear sensing, low-latency mode and customized gesture control.

Baseus Aurora Storm 3 headphones have two modes: adaptive noise reduction and normal noise reduction. The headphones have 12 sets of noise reduction parameters that are finally summarized by Baseus collecting 6,000+ human ear data. It provides adaptive noise reduction parameters for two different wearing angles of 45° and 30°, as well as adaptive noise reduction parameters for two different ear canals: tapered ear canal and U-shaped ear canal.

In the case where the keyboard sound in the office is relatively intensive, we switched the experience of boys and girls using the adaptive noise reduction function of the headphones. In terms of performance, there is a clear gap between the headphones before and after the noise reduction function is turned on. The keyboard sound can still be heard, but the sound is controlled within the acceptable range of the human ear and is not noisy.

According to I Love Audio Network, in order to achieve better noise reduction effect, Baseus Mini Aurora Storm 3 designed an independently developed Baseus U-shaped acoustic duct structure inside the earphones, which can prevent earphone sound from entering the microphone and eliminate earphone whistle. Calls and background noise. With the special acoustic structure and the design of 6 microphones on both sides, we made calls with the fan blowing directly, and the headset still showed a clear call effect.

Comparing the noise reduction experience of in-ear headphones, Baseus Aurora Storm 3 still has a certain gap in terms of noise reduction depth. But in terms of functional experience, Baseus Aurora Storm 3 does not have the ear pressure sensation caused by the noise reduction of in-ear headphones, which can be regarded as finding a balance between wearing and noise reduction.Most importantly, Baseus Aurora Storm 3 is the pioneer of active noise reduction in semi-in-ear headphones, allowing users in need to truly experience the noise reduction function of semi-in-ear headphones.

For the listening test, we chose light music which is more easily affected by the external environment - Sakamoto Ryuichi "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence", so that we can test the listening experience of the headphones after the noise reduction is turned on. You can also test the sound quality of your headphones.

First of all, let’s talk about the tuning direction. The tuning of Baseus Aurora Storm 3 tends to be cold sound, which means that the headphones have relatively good resolving power among semi-in-ear headphones at the same price. In "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence", the earphone piano sounds clear, the cello falters, Ryu Sakamoto's fingers fly, the black and white keys are interlaced, the cello sounds echo, and under the entanglement, about "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence" The story was narrated. The only drawback is that the cold tuning of the headphones makes the sound of the cello relatively less rich. As for the noise reduction experience, after the noise reduction is turned on, the headphones can isolate most of the outside sounds, ensuring a more immersive listening experience without missing important sounds from the outside world.

For mid-frequency vocals, Baseus Aurora Storm 3 is suitable for listening to the voices of singers with relatively ethereal voices such as Faye Wong and Zhang Liangying . The colder tuning direction makes the ethereal voices have an effect close to that of female poisonous women. It is a good choice for music lovers who like female poison.
