Wireless noise-canceling headphones refer to earphones that have wireless connectivity and can reduce external noise. It adopts a special technology that can reduce external noise through electronic devices or mechanical structures, allowing users to experience better listening effects.

At present, there are two main ways for headphones to achieve noise reduction: passive noise reduction and active noise reduction. Passive noise reduction, also known as physical noise reduction, only achieves the goal of noise reduction by creating a relatively enclosed space close to the ears through the inherent isolation of the earphone shape and in-ear style. That is to say, the earphones themselves do not participate in noise reduction through technical means, but use their external materials and internal filling to block sound from entering the ear canal, such as by wearing large earmuffs; Active noise reduction, in contrast to passive methods, refers to the use of technical means to reversely eliminate the collected noise sound waves to attain the effect of canceling out noise and achieving quiet listening.

According to our research data, the global wireless noise-canceling headphone market revenue is expected to reach $5306 million in 2023.
