Forget Beats, Vertu V headphones offer superior sound quality and style

Luxury smartphone-maker Vertu has branched into the audio market – and the results are stunning

 

Let the kids and footballers have their Beats; for those after quality craftsmanship and unparalleled sound, British brand Vertu has the ultimate pair of cans. Forget plastic and garish branding, these V headphones are smarter than smart in calves leather and aircraft grade lightweight aluminium. And it’s not just the materials – with speakers tuned in collaboration with the perfectionists at Bang and Olufsen, you know you’re going to have crystal clarity at every range. 

 

The carefully thought out ergonomics makes them perfect for long-haul flights, and the understated design means they’re equally suited to walking through the streets of London’s trendiest neighbourhoods. Cool, comfortable and with the best sound in the business, Vertu beats Beats every time.
