Which headphones should I use for homeworking?

While giants like Sony or Bose dominate the premium market at over €350, and Jabra or Poly establish themselves with professionals, Bigben shakes up the status quo by democratizing cutting-edge technologies (such as Hybrid ANC and Bluetooth 6.0) under the symbolic €50 threshold.

Here is how the new Sound Ørigin headphone range (Standard Range and Pro Range) positions itself against the market leaders.

Focus: Bigben's Sound Ørigin Range (Onyx, Mist, Forest)

Designed in Lesquin, France by Bigben, this new brand of wireless audio equipment directly targets urban professionals, hybrid remote workers, and demanding tech enthusiasts who refuse to pay premium prices for their gear.

The technical strengths of the range (particularly the Pro Range):

Market-record battery life (132 hours): This is the real feat of these models. Where the average office or consumer headphones offer around 30 to 40 hours, Sound Ørigin provides up to 132 hours of listening time (and 72 hours with active noise cancellation enabled). You can work for 3 weeks at a rate of 8 hours a day without ever recharging your headphones.
Cutting-edge Bluetooth 6.0 connectivity: Equipped with the very latest generation of wireless chips, Sound Ørigin headphones offer ultra-low latency—ideal for switching instantly from a training video to a team call—as well as a seamless multipoint connection to pair your PC and smartphone simultaneously.
Intelligent Hybrid ANC: Integrated into the Pro Range, the architecture combining internal and external microphones cancels out open space background noise while offering an ambient sound mode to stay attentive to your colleagues without removing the headphones.
The sturdiness of metal at the price of plastic: Unlike competing entry-level models often made entirely of fragile plastic, Sound Ørigin headphones all feature a robust metal headband covered in fabric for maximum durability to withstand daily commutes.

Updated Comparison: Sound Ørigin VS Industry Giants

To help you choose, here is how Bigben's range stacks up against some competitors.

Analysis: Why choose Sound Ørigin headphones for work?

Advantages for your workspace:

• Unbeatable budget: At €49.90 for the Pro Range (which includes a soft carrying pouch and a foldable/rotatable design), you benefit from audio specifications usually reserved for models sold three to four times more expensive.
• Battery peace of mind: Forget chargers and cables cluttering your desk thanks to the 132 hours of battery life.
• Long-lasting comfort: Ultra-lightweight (258g) and fitted with quality faux-leather ear cushions, you will easily forget you are wearing them, even during long work sessions.

Compromises to keep in mind:

No physical boom microphone: Unlike the Jabra Evolve2 or Poly Focus, Sound Ørigin headphones use invisible built-in microphones for hands-free calls. If your job involves spending 100% of your day on the phone in an extremely noisy environment, a headset with a dedicated boom mic will still offer better isolation for your callers' voices. For daily team meetings and remote work, the Sound Ørigin microphone does the job perfectly.

The style choice: To brighten up your desk, Bigben offers its Pro Range in several trendy colors: the classic Onyx Pro (black), the bright Mist Pro (white/grey), and the highly elegant Forest Pro (beige and sage green tones). Our favorite is the Forest Pro model, whose aesthetics, by the way, match beautifully with the oak wood design of the Thomson micro-systems from the Cosy collection!
