vivo has introduced its new Over-Ear Noise-Cancelling Headphones in China alongside the vivo S60 series. The headphones feature a full over-ear design where the ear cups fit closely around the ears to improve passive isolation before active noise cancellation is applied.
They are available in Cloud Mist White and Breeze Purple and weigh approximately 238g. The design focuses on long-term comfort with a soft structural build. The headband uses slow-rebound foam to reduce pressure on the head, while the ear cups use memory acoustic foam for a soft and stable fit.
The outer layer is finished in skin-friendly, litchi-textured eco-leather. The hinge structure is rounded and positioned to avoid hair or sideburn entanglement during adjustments, while the overall fit is also optimized for glasses wearers.
Comfort-focused design highlights:
- 238g lightweight build
- Slow-rebound foam headband
- Memory foam ear cups
- Skin-friendly eco-leather finish
- Hair-friendly rounded hinge design
The headphones include an adaptive active noise cancellation system designed for environments such as flights, trains, and buses. The system adjusts based on ambient noise levels and fit conditions, switching between multiple ANC modes automatically.
Noise cancellation performance includes:
- Up to 31 dB average noise reduction
- Up to 58 dB maximum noise reduction
- Claimed 99.9% suppression of daily ambient noise
The system also recalibrates in real time if the ear cups shift and supports light, regular, deep ANC modes along with transparency mode.
For audio performance, the headphones use a 40mm dynamic driver with a composite biological diaphragm and high-efficiency magnetic circuit. The system is tuned by vivo’s Golden Ears Acoustics Laboratory to deliver balanced, detailed sound output.
The tuning focuses on wide soundstage, clear vocals, stable bass response, and improved instrument separation. Enhanced airflow control helps maintain cleaner low frequencies and reduces distortion across dynamic ranges. The headphones also support Hi-Res Audio certification in both wired and wireless modes.
A cinema-style spatial audio engine converts stereo sound into a 360-degree surround experience for more immersive playback. Users can also adjust output using a 10-band equalizer for detailed sound customization across frequency ranges.
Connectivity supports simultaneous pairing with up to three devices, including a smartphone, tablet, and computer. Audio switching between devices is seamless and managed through the vivo Headphones app.
Battery performance is one of the key highlights, offering up to 75 hours of playback with ANC off and up to 35 hours with ANC on. A 10-minute charge can deliver up to 9 hours of playback, supported by intelligent power management.
The headphones include physical controls for direct operation. These include a power button, volume scroll wheel, and a dedicated ANC/Bluetooth button.
Control functions include:
- Power button: play/pause, calls, and track navigation
- ANC/Bluetooth button: mode switching and pairing
- Volume scroll wheel: precise adjustment
Smart features add AI-based functionality through the “Xiao V” assistant. The headphones support real-time translation, smart alerts for deliveries and travel updates, message broadcasting, and incoming call announcements.
Additional features include device tracking with map navigation and audio playback, along with customizable connection pop-ups featuring animated themes like “Huahua” and “Doudou,” or user-generated visuals via the Xiao V Painting Engine.
