Packaging and build quality | Austin Urbanist Review

The Urbanista Austin package is complete and contains the charging case, earphones, manuals and charging cable. USB-C. The case has a compact and light shape (very reminiscent, even to the touch, of a pebble), with a magnetic mechanism which makes it easier to insert and remove the earphones.

Charging status that can be checked thanks to the small LED on the front of the case, which can flash or remain fixed.

Audio and features | Austin Urbanist Review

The audio quality of the Urbanista Austins is amazing for their price range. The sound is balanced and clean, with a good performance of low and high frequencies. Thanks to the 13 mm dynamic drivers, they adapt well to different music genres and audio sources, such as Youtube, Spotify or Amazon Music. Obviously you can’t expect the same fidelity as more expensive headphones and dedicated to audiophiles, but for daily use they are more than satisfactory (pity only about the codec support, limited to the underperforming SBC). In any case, even the microphone quality (double) is good, thus allowing you to make clear and noise-free calls. There is no active reduction of environmental noise.

The headphones are then equipped with touch controls which allow you to easily manage music playback, calls and the voice assistant, all via one or more consecutive taps (however, it is not possible to change the volume). The Bluetooth 5.3 connection is exceptional, fast and stable, which has no interruptions or signal losses (the connection to the smartphone really takes place in just a few seconds). There is no type of companion app for smartphones.
