Appearance Design & Comfort Fit & Controls
QCY H3 headphones support folding inwards, making them easier to store. The top of the headbeam is covered with a larger thickness of memory foam, which can improve the comfort of the top of the head when worn. The headhbeam provides 9 levels of telescopic adjustment, which can be adjusted to different lengths according to the size of your head to meet your needs for wearing comfort.
The earmuffs are made of imitation protein leather and are filled with slow-rebound memory foam – not only can they stay close to the ears when worn, but they will not feel stuffy. The oval design can wrap around the entire auricle, physically isolating external noise. It should be noted that the earmuffs do not support 180° rotation, only 90° rotation.
All buttons and interfaces are on the right headphone – multi-function button, volume +/- button, 3.5mm audio jack, USB-C port, microphone hole and ANC button. Press and hold the multi-function button for 2s to turn on, long press for 4s to turn off. In music mode, single-tap to play/pause, double-tap to turn on low-latency mode.

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) & Calls
QCY H3 uses 43dB Hybird ANC and Bimodal Ear Canal Adaptive Audio Compensation to perform real-time adaptive noise cancellation and audio compensation – showing good noise cancellation effects in various scenarios.
The noise caused by the operation of the subway can be effectively eliminated, and the resonance sound that occurs when taking the bus can also be well isolated. When used with the QCY APP, you can choose from four noise cancellation modes: Noisy, Commuting, Indoor, Anti-wind noise. And the depth of noise cancellation can be adjusted according to needs.
In addition, QCY H3 has also optimized the call experience. H3 uses three-microphone VDCNN call noise reduction technology, which can effectively reduce background noise and improve call clarity.
Acoustic Architecture & Sound Description
QCY H3 is equipped with a 40mm composite diaphragm dynamic driver, which has passed Hi-Res Audio certification and has high-resolution sound quality. The frequency response range of the headphones can reach 40kHz, giving us a highly restored listening experience.
The bass is thick and full without being overly prominent or broken. The restoration of mid-frequency vocals is relatively high and can accurately restore the details of vocals. The layers of vocals and instruments are distinct. The only shortcoming is that the high-frequency is not as good as the low and mid-frequency, but the details of the instruments can still be clearly appreciated.
Conclusion
QCY H3 has a stylish appearance and excellent noise cancellation function, especially the three-microphone VDCNN call noise cancellation technology – it can provide you with clear and pure sound whether in the office or on a noisy street.
