QCY brand headphones are recognized for offering excellent cost-benefit, combining affordable prices with advanced features. The product line ranges from models with active noise cancellation (ANC) and high-resolution audio support to simpler options for less demanding needs.
Tecnoblog compiled a list of ten of the best QCY headphone options available for purchase in 2026, detailing the pros and cons of each to help the consumer choose the ideal model for their usage profile.
QCY H3S
The QCY H3S is a foldable over-ear headphone weighing only 240 grams. It incorporates 56 dB adaptive active noise cancellation (ANC), providing a more immersive sound experience. For calls, the device uses three microphones (out of a total of seven) equipped with an anti-wind system to enhance voice pickup.
This model features a dual driver system (40 mm and 13 mm), designed to deliver robust bass and crisp highs. Additionally, Hi-Res Audio and Hi-Res Audio Wireless seals ensure high-resolution playback, both wired and wireless. Battery life is notable, reaching up to 102 hours without ANC activated or 58 hours with it on. Supported codecs include SBC and LDAC.
QCY H3 Pro
The QCY H3 Pro shares characteristics with the H3S, being an over-ear headphone as well, but presents slightly inferior specifications. Weighing 231 g, it offers 50 dB ANC and features environmental noise cancellation (ENC) in the microphones assisted by artificial intelligence. This model does not have support for dual dynamic drivers, but its 40 mm drivers ensure more precise bass.
It also supports high-resolution audio, both wired (via 3.5 mm auxiliary) and wireless. The battery lasts up to 55 hours without ANC or 40 hours with ANC active. Furthermore, the QCY H3 Pro supports multipoint connection via Bluetooth 5.4. Accepted codecs are SBC and LDAC.
QCY HT08 Melobuds Pro
With an in-ear design, the QCY HT08 Melobuds Pro is extremely lightweight, weighing only 4.5 g per unit. Its 46 dB adaptive ANC promises to reduce noise by up to 99%, and the transparency mode allows six levels of adjustment so the user can remain aware of external sounds.
The headphone is equipped with 12 mm drivers and is compatible with high-resolution audio and multipoint connection (Bluetooth 5.3). Although it does not offer surround sound, it supports spatial audio for a more immersive experience. The battery lasts 8.5 hours with ANC on or 7.5 hours without it, with the charging case extending this duration to 34 hours. The peripheral has an IPX5 certification against sweat and light rain. Supported codecs are SBC and LDAC.
QCY H3 ANC
The QCY H3 ANC represents the entry-level version of the H3 family. Even though it is a more basic model, this over-ear headphone offers 43 dB hybrid active noise cancellation to mitigate external sounds. The device features 40 mm drivers to optimize bass quality and supports multipoint connection via Bluetooth 5.3. It also supports high-resolution audio, but only when used in wired mode.
A strong point of this headphone is its battery, which offers 30 hours of autonomy with ANC on. If ANC is disabled, the duration can reach 55 hours. Supported codecs are SBC and LDAC.
QCY T13 ANC
The QCY T13 ANC is a simple in-ear headphone, but equipped with active noise cancellation of up to 28 dB. Its design is lightweight (4 g each) and uses hydrodynamics to reduce wind noise hitting the microphones, optimizing calls. The diaphragm of the 10 mm dynamic driver provides more prominent bass, while the copper-coated aluminum wire ensures elasticity to improve mids and highs. However, it does not support high-resolution audio or multipoint connection. The battery lasts 7 hours on a single charge, which can be extended up to 30 hours without ANC using the case recharges. Supported codecs are AAC and SBC.
The QCY Crossky C50 is the only listed model with an open-ear design. Its ergonomics allow the headphone to adapt to various ear shapes, offering good stability even during physical exercise. However, due to its open construction, it does not have active noise cancellation, as this would prevent adequate isolation. Although it is not compatible with high-resolution audio, it comes with 10.8 mm dynamic drivers with bass reinforcement and a dynamic equalization algorithm. Reverse sound wave technology helps reduce sound leakage by up to 90%. The headphone has IPX5 protection and a battery with up to 7.5 hours of continuous use, which can reach 35 hours with the aid of the case. Codecs were not specified.
QCY T13X
The QCY T13X is an in-ear headphone intended for less demanding uses. This peripheral does not have active noise cancellation, but includes a system that minimizes wind noise captured by the microphone. The headphones are equipped with a 7.2 mm dynamic driver and use the Bluetooth 5.3 standard. As a more basic model, it does not offer high-resolution audio compatibility. The battery life of the QCY T13X can reach 8 hours, extending up to 30 hours with the use of the case. Supported codecs are AAC and SBC.
QCY T32 AilyBuds Clear
The QCY T32 AilyBuds Clear is a semi in-ear headphone, which fits partially into the ear canal but without the need for silicone tips. It is considered a more basic peripheral and does not have active noise cancellation. This wearable comes with a 13 mm driver, Bluetooth 5.3, and the ability to support two simultaneous connections. It also includes a low latency mode (0.068 s), ideal for improving the gaming experience. The headphone has IPX5 protection against sweat and splashes. The battery promises up to 5 hours of autonomy on a single charge or 22 hours with case recharges. Codecs were not specified.
QCY T20
The QCY T20 is another basic semi in-ear headphone, weighing only 3.7 g each. Like the T32, this peripheral does not have ANC and is recommended for less demanding uses. Among its differentials, the 13 mm driver for more present bass and customizable touch controls to facilitate music playback stand out. The battery lasts approximately 5.5 hours or 20 hours with the use of the case. The wearable has IPX4 protection against sweat and water splashes. The supported codec is AAC.
The T27 ArcBuds Lite is another QCY headphone without active noise cancellation. However, its in-ear design, which features openings on the rear and front parts, helps balance air pressure, promoting greater comfort during use. This headphone has a 10 mm dynamic driver and noise cancellation...
