At IFA 2026, Beyerdynamic showed off its latest headphones called AVENTHO Y. They are over-ear headphones that come in a variety of colors such as Liquid Black, Blue Soft Jade, and Peach Blush. Each color is meant to express emotions and feelings.
AVENTHO Y have mentioned they have a rather unbeliveable battery life of 90 hours with ANC off. With ANC you get up to 60 whic is still impressive. Five hours of charge gets you six hours back of play time. The battery is also replaceable which is something you dont see too often on headphones.
Pricing for AVENTHO Y is $149.99 on their website and Amazon. You can learn more about the headphones below.
HEILBRONN, GERMANY — SEPTEMBER 3, 2026 — At IFA 2026, beyerdynamic, the German audio manufacturer with more than a century of expertise, introduces the AVENTHO Y, a wireless over-ear headphone with active noise cancellation designed to adapt to the many ways people listen – from music and gaming to work, travel and everyday entertainment. Built on more than 100 years of professional audio expertise, the AVENTHO Y brings beyerdynamic’s renowned sound, comfort and durability to an accessible premium wireless headphone, available in four expressive colorways with more than 90 hours of battery life.
Whether it’s finding focus before an exam, gaming with friends, creating a little calm on a crowded commute or getting lost in an album, the AVENTHO Y adapts to every moment. Designed as a single headphone for multiple use cases, it moves seamlessly between music, gaming, work, travel and everyday life – combining beyerdynamic’s signature sound with lasting comfort in a design that feels as personal as the playlists and play sessions people return to every day.
“The AVENTHO Y was developed around a simple idea: audio isn’t just something people hear – it’s something they use every day to focus, recharge, connect and express themselves,” said Andreas Rapp, CEO at beyerdynamic. “We wanted to create a headphone that delivers the performance people expect from beyerdynamic while giving them the freedom to make it their own – in both the sound they hear and the style they choose.”
Four Colors. Four Feelings. One Why.
That idea comes to life through Hear Your Why, a campaign built around the belief that every reason someone listens has a feeling – and every feeling has a color. While each colorway represents a different emotional connection to sound, every AVENTHO Y delivers the same premium beyerdynamic sound, features and performance.
- Liquid Black — Focus & Depth: grounded, confident and immersed
- Blue Fusion — Calm & Escape: relaxed, open and free
- Soft Jade — Clarity & Renewal: refreshed, balanced and inspired
- Peach Blush — Warmth & Connection: comforting, soft and uplifting
Made for Every Way You Listen
Versatility is at the heart of the AVENTHO Y. Optional accessories – including ultra-soft black or grey velour ear pads and an upgrade bundle featuring a low-latency USB-C dongle and detachable boom microphone – make it easy to tailor the headphone to changing needs.
Designed for long-term ownership, the AVENTHO Y features a foldable, ergonomic design that’s as durable as it is comfortable. A user-replaceable battery, magnetic ear pads, aluminum sliders and stainless-steel hinges make it easy to replace high-wear components instead of the entire headphone. An integrated storage compartment inside the earcup keeps the optional USB-C dongle and spare battery protected and always within reach.
Bluetooth® 6.0 multipoint connectivity makes it easy to switch seamlessly between a laptop, smartphone and tablet, supporting everything from work calls to gaming sessions to enjoyment listening. With more than 90 hours of battery life with ANC off – or up to 60 hours with ANC on – the AVENTHO Y keeps pace with changing routines without constant charging. Just five minutes of fast charging provides up to six hours of playback.
The experience becomes even more personal through the beyerdynamic app, where listeners can customize EQ profiles, explore genre-based sound presets, receive firmware updates and manage smart settings like auto power-off, allowing the AVENTHO Y to evolve alongside changing listening habits and preferences.
Each pair includes a USB-C charging/audio cable, a soft carrying bag, Quick Start Guide and a Compliance Booklet.

The AVENTHO Y will be available for $149.99 at beyerdynamic.com and Amazon. Visitors to IFA 2026 can experience the AVENTHO Y firsthand at the beyerdynamic booth, located in Hall 4.2, booth #147.
