Panasonic RB-M700B Over-Ear Wireless Headphones w/ Active Noise Cancellation
Product Gallery
Product Overview
Panasonic RB-M700B is an entry-level over-ear wireless headphone with active noise cancellation. It features Panasonic's built-in Bass Reactor to boost the lower frequencies, making it an interesting choice for street music and sports.
The RB-M700B comes with a decent 20-hour battery life, though its charging time is longer compared to more premium options. Like many other wireless headphones, the RB-M700B also supports voice assistants via voice function.
Alongside the RB-M700B, Panasonic also introduced at 2020 CES the RB-M500B and RB-M300B that progressively drop some features but nonetheless keep the XBS DEEP bass playback technology.

Reviewer score 78%The ZVOX AV50 headphones have a better balance between the vocals and the accompanying music. The RB-M700Bs have given me a new perspective on the song. The ANC technology doesn't block out too much ambient noise and distorts the audio. Each setting gives the headphones a different character that will suit whatever genre you're listening to.

Reviewer score 47%Panasonic RB-M700B headphones offer powerful low-frequency depth that doesn't need to be boosted even a smidge. With the Bass Reactor set to off, you get an ear and skull massage as the lows vibrate the enclosure to an absurd degree. The mic offers average intelligibility at best, but the Bluetooth distortion was sometimes stronger than we expected it to be.
