An award-winner. Made better
Already a multi-award winner, the Melomania 1 wanted for little. Never one to stand still, however, Cambridge Audio have made the best better by adding USB-C charging and app control.
Famous Cambridge Audio sound
Graphene enhanced drivers help the Melomania 1+ earphones deliver a dynamic and responsive performance. From the deepest bass to the highest tops, the sound remains clear and smooth. With Bluetooth 5.0, plus support for AAC and aptX audio codecs, you’re also guaranteed the highest quality wireless sound.
New app for even greater control
Download the free Melomania app for your iOS Apple or Android device and personalise the sound further. Choose between six preinstalled EQ settings or use the 5-band EQ to create your own, dedicated sound setting. The app also helps locate misplaced earbuds using your phone’s map and displays the remaining battery life.
Totally free
With no connecting cord or even a wire between the earphones, the Melomania 1+ earphones offer complete freedom from wires. Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity means stable, wireless sound. Simple, tap to control and voice assistant compatibility means you can keep your smartphone in your bag or pocket for added security and comfort.
Long lasting – class-leading battery life
With up to 9 hours of playback from a single charge, these earphones lead the class in battery endurance. Supplied with a charging case, you can recharge the earphones a total of 4 cycles – giving an unprecedented total battery life of 45 hours.
Tough enough for life yet comfortable, too
With IPX5 rated water resistance, the Melomania 1+ earphones are tough enough to survive a rain shower or an intense workout at the gym. Despite this toughness, they’re also lightweight (just 4.6 grammes each) and comfortable; coming with a wide selection of foam and silicone tips for the perfect fit.
Hear and be heard
Incorporating an advanced MEMS (MicroElectro-Mechanical Systems) microphone and the latest version of Qualcomm’s Clear Voice Capture, noise-cancelling technology, it’s easy to be clearly heard. When making calls, your caller hears a minimum amount of background noise and distortion.
Voice assistant compatible
Compatible with Siri and Google Assistant, these quality earphones make the perfect partner for your iPhone or Android smartphone. Not being tied to one system means you can switch between them both.
Enjoy award-winning Cambridge Audio sound on the move, with the Melomania 1+.

Basic design flaw let these down
I purchased these 10 months ago despite the mixed reviews, and am now regretting that decision.
When you remove the headphones from their charging case, the foam tips (size large used) often stick in the charging case sockets, leaving them firmly stuck with you unable to remove them (despite regular cleaning as advised). If you are travelling, this is a now significant issue as you are unable to reach the tips with your fingers, until you have access to tweezers or similar. Upon inspection, the left charging socket on the case has an interfering notch which ‘grabs’ the foam tip – this is a basic design issue that could have been easily avoided.
The tips’ surfaces damage very easily, so removing them from the case will cause damage quite quickly, but they are very expensive to replace. Very disappointed.

THE ultimate test of durability?
Received a pair of Melomania 1 wireless headphones fo Christmas 2021. Highly delighted with the sound and build quality. Used them regularly until December 2022 when they (including the case) disappeared from on the kitchen worktop. After much searching I assumed they had been put in the bin with the waste by mistake. I was lost without them so put the Melomania 1+ on my 2022 Christmas list. Received a pair and was again highly delighted with them. We then move on to February 2023 when we were defrosting our under the counter freezer. On emptying the top draw there resting in the bottom were the original Melomania 1 headphones in their case. They had obviously been knocked into there by mistake back in December whilst loading the Christmas shopping. On opening the case two lights showed the headphones still to be partially charged. I allowed the headphones to return to room temperature and then fully recharged then. They have since performed without any hiccups - still good battery life and the Cambridge standard of sound quality. How many manufacturers can claims their products still perform after 3 months in the freezer!!!!
A Cambridge product which can claim to pass THE ultimate test of durability.

Great Product & Value for money
I bought this a 4 months ago and a very good product. Sound quality is nice, noise cancellation is amazing, great fit - not once it came off my ears while running or working out. Above all battery lasts very long with charger case.

Would not recommend to buy these
I received faulty product- they failed to connect to my phone, they didn't charge fully and then the left one stopped working completely in a matter of a week. But I have to say- the sound was indeed quite great, but meant only for in-door listening. The microphone is not very good either. Also- my compliments to the customer service! I had the best service, they gave me the refund super fast!
P.S. I have heard from others that they also had connectivity problems.

Great product at a great price.
I'm very happy with these ear buds. They're well priced and make listening to music and podcasts an absolute joy when I'm out with the dog. Additionally, during the working day, they mean I no longer have to listen to my colleagues' drivel.

One Earbud Works!
After charging it for around an hour (the last light never stopped flashing, I assume it has solid LED lights once fully charged), only the right earbud flashed white and was able to pair once holding down the power button for 3 seconds.
I have tried many methods to get the left earbud to work. Cleaning the charging ports (did not work (although it would work in both ports with the right earbud), ensuring the left earbud was fully placed, cleaning the earbud itself, trying it without/with the removable plastic piece, turning it on whilst in the case, outside the case, holding both earbuds power button whilst in the case to reset and in both ears to hear the "power on" so that they're not in standby mode.
The only issue I believe the issue to be is that the left earbud does not receive the charging needle in the case itself and charges.
Overall I was impressed by the quality but a real shame about this one issue. According to online forums, this is not rare.

Great first wireless earphones
I’ve resisted switching from wired to wireless for soooo long, and now I can honestly say these have changed my life. It’s just so much easier, NOT faffing about with silly wires, especially in the winter when you’re wearing a million layers the last thing you want is wires dangling about and getting caught on stuff as you’re getting off the bus.
These are great, I haven’t had any issues so far, great audio quality, very pleased!
Everyone can hear me REALLY well on a call too (maybe a bit too well?) but it’s all good.

Bought these a couple of weeks ago. These are my first pair of wireless and I am very Impressed either the sound quality.
It will probably take me a bit of time to get used to the controls being in ear but I will persevere!
