- The UGREEN HiTune Max5c Hybrid Active Noise-Cancelling Headphone is one of UGREEN’s most feature-packed wireless over-ear headphones, targeting users who want premium features such as Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), Hi-Res audio, LDAC support, and very long battery life at a more affordable price. It combines stylish design, practical comfort, and strong everyday performance, making it suitable for students, office workers, travelers, and casual gamers. The headphones feature 40mm dynamic drivers designed to produce deep bass, balanced mids, and detailed highs. One of the standout features is LDAC codec support, which allows higher-quality wireless audio streaming on compatible Android devices. This gives the Max5c noticeably better clarity and detail compared to standard Bluetooth audio codecs like SBC. The headphones are also Hi-Res Audio certified for both wired and wireless listening. For noise cancellation, the Max5c uses hybrid ANC technology capable of reducing ambient noise by up to around 38–43dB depending on the environment. It performs especially well against low-frequency sounds such as airplane engine noise, office air conditioning, traffic, and public transport rumble. Transparency mode is included, allowing users to hear surrounding sounds without removing the headphones. While the ANC may not fully match flagship models from Sony or Bose, it performs impressively for its price category. Battery life is one of the strongest advantages of the Max5c. The built-in 600mAh battery delivers up to 75 hours of playback with ANC turned off and around 45 hours with ANC enabled. Fast charging support is also included, with about 5 minutes of charging providing up to 5 hours of playback. A full charge takes approximately 1.5 hours via USB-C. In terms of connectivity, the headphones support Bluetooth 5.4 for stable wireless performance and dual-device multipoint connection, allowing users to connect to two devices simultaneously, such as a phone and laptop. The low-latency gaming mode improves synchronization during gaming and video playback. Comfort is another highlight. The Max5c weighs about 260g and includes memory foam ear cushions with a foldable design for easier portability. Many users on Reddit describe the headphones as comfortable for long listening sessions, although some users feel the earcups are slightly small. Community feedback also frequently praises the battery endurance and value for money. One common observation from users is that the default sound tuning can feel overly bass-heavy, but the UGREEN app includes EQ presets and customization tools that significantly improve sound quality. Several Reddit users recommend adjusting the EQ or using presets such as Jazz or Rock for clearer vocals and better balance. For users looking for affordable ANC headphones with premium features, strong battery life, LDAC support, and solid everyday performance, the HiTune Max5c offers excellent overall value.
