Two new over-ear headphone models are capturing the attention of the consumer audio market. On one side, the Marshall Milton ANC have received a positive review from Engadget, praised as a rare case for premium on-ear headphones blending vintage design with active noise cancellation. On the other, mysterious Beats over-ear headphones have been teased in a second color by footballer Lamine Yamal on Instagram, following an earlier pink version and an FCC appearance.
Marshall Milton ANC: A Rare Case for Premium On-Ear Headphones
The Marshall Milton ANC are described as the offspring of the Major and Monitor models. They deliver a signature Marshall sound with punchy bass and clear mids, plus effective ANC that doesn't feel overwhelming. Engadget highlights their comfortable fit and iconic design, reviving the value of on-ear headphones in a market dominated by over-ear models. This is a premium product focused on build quality, analog listening experience, Bluetooth 5.3, and up to 30 hours of battery life with ANC on.

Upcoming Beats Headphones Teased in a Second Color by Lamine Yamal
While the world awaits the successor to the Beats Studio Pro, Yamal posted an Instagram Story showing a second color for the unreleased Beats over-ear headphones. After the pink variant teased days earlier, an ivory or stone color now appears hanging from a bag alongside the pink version. The headphones appeared in FCC filings weeks ago, but no specs, name, or release date have been confirmed. Some speculate this could be a separate, more affordable model rather than a direct Studio Pro replacement.
