Dyson’s foray into audio tech has been an interesting one. While 2022’s Dyson Zone failed to make a lasting impression, the newly launched OnTrac feels more like a statement piece.

On top of that, the metallic build and customisable earcups bring a flair of personality to the device. The joystick control is a nice touch too. We reviewed the Dyson OnTrac headphones earlier this month. Its overall performance is so good that you almost forget that it is a second-generation product from the brand.
