Our take on the Yamaha YH-E700B Wireless Over-Ear Noise-Cancelling Headphones
The Yamaha YH-E700B is a wireless over-ear headphone with active noise cancellation, built for long listening sessions at home, at work or on a commute. It stands out for Yamaha's warm, natural tuning and a set of listening modes: noise cancelling, a transparency-style ambient mode and a listening-care mode that limits volume. Battery life is long enough for multi-day use, and the headphones fold for travel. Against Bose and Sony flagships, the noise cancelling is a step behind on planes and trains, and there is no app-heavy customization, but the sound and comfort hold up well for the category.
- Warm, balanced sound with clear vocals
- Comfortable over-ear fit for long sessions

What reviewers say
Owners like the sound and comfort, calling the tuning natural and easy to wear for hours. Most criticism centers on noise cancelling that is good but not class-leading, and on a feature set that is simpler than Bose or Sony rivals.
- Sound qualityPraisedOwners describe a warm, balanced sound with clear vocals rather than a bass-heavy tuning.
- Noise cancellingMixedReviewers find it effective for offices and streets but not as strong as Bose or Sony on planes.
- ComfortPraisedThe over-ear fit and light clamping are called comfortable for hours of wear.
Questions and answers
- How does the noise cancelling compare with Bose and Sony?
- It handles offices, streets and trains reasonably well, but Bose and Sony flagships suppress low engine rumble more effectively. Buy it for sound and comfort first, not for the quietest cabin.
- Can I use it wired?
- Yes, with the included cable it works passively without battery power. That makes it usable on flights even after the charge runs out.
- What is listening care?
- It is a Yamaha mode that lowers volume at frequencies where hearing is most vulnerable, so long sessions are less tiring. It is not a hearing-protection guarantee.
- Does it fold for travel?
- The earcups fold flat, and the headphones come with a carry case. They take up more room than in-ear models but fit in a backpack.
- Is it good for calls?
- It is fine indoors, but the microphones pick up wind and street noise outdoors. For frequent calls in noisy places, a headset with a boom mic is better.
