Parrot Zik 3.0

The Parrot Zik 3.0 are wireless noise-cancelling headphones packed with enough tech to make the Bose QuietComfort 35 look like the equivalent of a horse and cart.

The Parrot Zik 3.0 are feature-packed wireless headphones offering solid sound – but comfort is an issue.

Parrot Zik 3.0 review

Zik as a parrot? Not quite, but the sound doesn't match the innovative app...

Attractive, solid build ; Effective noise cancelling ; Added app functionality ; Balanced, upfront sound

Lack dynamics ; Bass needs greater depth ; Rivals more insightful ; Need better battery life

Sadly for Parrot, fruitful features can’t make up for so-so sound

Parrot Zik 3.0 review: The most high-tech, feature-packed wireless headphone you can get

Parrot has made some small but significant upgrades to its Zik 3 headphone, making one of the best options for those looking for a wireless headphone that also offers active noise-cancellation.

The Parrot Zik 3 Bluetooth headphone has a slick, eye-catching design and excellent build quality, plus a wealth of features, including wireless audio streaming, effective noise-cancellation, and touch-sensitive controls on the right earpiece. Also,...

Battery life has improved from previous model but still isn't great; despite its high price, only a basic cloth carrying case is included.

The Zik 3s are part of the newest generation of Parrot's wireless headphones, but do they provide sound good enough for die-hard music fans? We sent them to our test lab to find out.

Parrot Zik 3: High-class, high-tech, high-priced Bluetooth headphones [REVIEW]

Parrot's Zik 3 are respectable Bluetooth headphones packed with impressive sound quality and capable noise-cancellation.

Exceptional sound quality ; Versatile presets, and customization using the mobile app ; Completely wireless, from charging to playback

$400 price tag ; No protective carrying case

The Parrot Zik 3 Bluetooth headphones are a respectable upgrade from the likes of Bose or Beats. Parrot packed in impressive sound quality, with capable noise cancellation, but at a steep $400 price.

Bursting with bells and whistles, the Parrot Zik 3 are the most advanced headphones you can buy.

Parrot’s new Zik 3 offer an embarrassing wealth of high-tech features, a sleek and comfy design, and world-class noise cancellation that makes them a top option in the high-end wireless headphone segment. While the highly-affected sound signature isn’t...

Parrot Zik 3.0 (Black Leather-grain)

The biggest changes on the outside are the new colors and textures, including "croco" and "overstitched" effects. Also, for those of you with big heads, the headband has been enlarged in an effort to improve comfort. And while this headphone isn't...

Battery life has improved from previous model but still isn't great; despite its high price, only a basic cloth carrying case is included.

Parrot Zik 3 review: Incredible sound, great features

In this Parrot Zik 3 review I'll talk about what makes the third iteration of Zik's worth your time and money, and why they are a Techaeris Top Pick.

Amazing sound, incredible noise cancelling, excellent design, and great features.

Battery life could be better, though charging is fast, and spare batteries are available so it isn't a huge issue. It might be nice to have a more substantial case rather than a cloth sack, but that's also not a huge deal.

The Parrot Zik 3 headphones have a lot going for them. If you’re in the market for a pair of good headphones in the $300-$400 neighborhood, the Zik 3’s are a pair of headphones you should really check out. These headphones have definitely earned their...
