If you’re into drones and wireless audio, then you’ll probably agree that Parrot is the best thing out of France since Daft Punk. Personally, I’ve been most impressed with the company’s wireless headphones, the Zik. In fact, I’ve been a regular user since it came outabout two years ago. Even today, no other brands have attempted anything as advanced as these cans. Which makes sense: These are no ordinary Bluetooth headphones. In addition to being wireless, they feature effective noise cancellation and intuitive touchpad input, all tucked inside a quirky Philippe Starck design, no less. More importantly, the audio quality has gotten better over time as Parrot improved device compatibility via firmware updates.

But of course, there’s always room for improvement; the original Zik is on the heavy side, and not everyone’s a fan of its bulky look. Well, that’s pretty much why we now have theZik 2.0, and fortunately, it offers more than just improved portability. Read on to see if this new model is worth the $399 upgrade.
