Bose has always brought excellent noise-canceling technology to its headphones, but with the disadvantage that they were previously only wired. The new QuietComfort 35 changes that. Bose has dispensed with the cable between phone and headset, using Bluetooth, instead. We tried the Bluetooth headset from Bose to see how it compared to its wired counterparts.

The Marshall London may not boast high-end specs, but even when you put aside the hype surrounding its moniker, it’s still a great smartphone. It oozes attitude and style, has reasonable hardware, and has some interesting audio-focused features. It still comes at a high though – does this show us that the value of a phone is not always found in the performance it delivers?
I had the chance to test the Marshall London during IFA 2015 and this preliminary review will try to answer that question, as well as whether you can forgoe premium specs in exchange for clever design.
