Master & Dynamic’s new headphones will help keep your commute quiet while staying stylish

Master & Dynamic The MW65 headphones weigh just 250g and feature Google Assistant integration.

Today, premium audio company Master & Dynamic unveiled its first noise cancelling headphones: the MW65. The over-ear headphones feature integrated Google Assistant, allowing listeners to access the virtual assistant at a moment’s notice to set alarms, reminders, have incoming notifications read aloud, and more.

Much like other noise-cancelling headphones, the MW65 allows users to toggle noise-cancelling strength. In this case, listeners are afforded two settings: high and low ANC, which is facilitated by two beamforming microphones to combat external noise. The headphones house 40mm dynamic drivers and appear much more svelte than the Audio-Technica ATH-M40x which contain identically sized drivers.
