Marshall's wireless headphones duo combine rock ’n’ roll looks with whopping battery stamina

Marshall Major V in black.

Rock ’n’ roll audio brand Marshall is adding new models to two of its most popular product lines. The Major V wireless on-ears continue the legacy of one of the US brand's most recognisable series of headphones, while the Minor IV wireless earbuds represent the fourth generation of Marshall's affordable in-ear range. 

Continuing with that boxy, retro look for which the Major are well known, the fifth-generation on-ear cans have been "significantly improved to reduce distortion" and thus promote greater sonic clarity and precision. Rather strikingly, the new on-ears go big on battery life, offering more than 100 hours of wireless playtime from a single charge and besting the roughly 80 hours of juice offered by the outgoing Major IV.
