Creative SXFI Air Hands-On Review: An intriguing but ultimately disappointing pair of over-ear headphones

[Redaktion]

The Creative SXFI AIR is a US$140 pair of over-ear headphones that packs plenty of features. With a Super X-Fi DSP, Bluetooth, line-in, USB Type-C and a microSD card reader, you are spoilt for choice with the SXFI AIR. Average battery life and underwhelming drivers hold the SXFI AIR back, though.

This is an overrated headset after-all. No doubt the SXFI experience is immersive, but the overall material is bad. The leather started to deteriorate after 3 years and created a mess for me.

Willing to share photos as evidences of the condition of my headset.

You are talking about the earcups' material or the headband's? 3 years sounds reasonable, especially if we're talking about the earcups, which are replaceable.
