"Audiofly AF78s have nice attention to detail, are great for frequent flyers and sound great."

The first thing listeners often do when trying out new in-ear headphones is focus on the bass, shortly followed by the mids and then highs - your ears adjust to the sound or try to give it reference.

The AF78s seem to smash all of those stages together and within seconds there's a relieving and instant depth coming out of the tiny speakers that few can rival.

These really are in-ear headphones designed for just about anyone, and it's clear their main purpose is for travelling, but what sets them apart from your everyday pair is there comfort. It's partly to do with the variations of ear buds offered (a range of foam and silicon options come with them), but the way they sit is the sort of comfort level needed for long haul flights.

Audiofly are confident of this fact, and among the nice carry tin are two jack adopters, including one that allows users to plug them into the two-prong input aircrafts use. They’re also designed in such a way to reduce outside noise, meaning you don’t need to crank your device to a level you’ll soon tire of.

Not only are they practical in that sense, the design is pleasing too, with the cable casing made out of nylon, rather than plastic, giving them a nicer finish and making tangles less of an issue.

The Audiofly AF78s have nice attention to detail, are great for frequent flyers and sound great. Plus they come with a tiny brush for cleaning, suggesting you're going to be holding onto them for a whole. We'll take that bet.
