Edifier WH950NB review: Good sound, but limited codec support

Support for the excellent LDAC codec will appeal to the relatively small number of listeners using smartphones or digital audio players with the same feature.

"The Edifier WH950NB has a Bluetooth 5.3 radio onboard, and it supports the SBC and LDAC codecs. That means no AAC support for Apple users and no aptX support for Android users with devices that don’t support LDAC. Those are omissions that will disqualify these headphones for many users."

" The WH950B is a well-made headphone with an attractive finish. While not quite as polished as the Sony WH-1000XM5 or the Bose QuietComfort 45 headphones, these Edifier headphones have more of that luxury feel than the Soundcore Q45 that I’ve been using as a comparison."

" Even so, it’s hard to recommend this headphone to anyone whose devices don’t have LDAC support. Anything with AAC support is more likely to satisfy an iPhone user, and many Android users will be looking for aptX support. Neither of those codecs are present in the WH950B."
