  • Final ZE3000 SV launch today, for $99.99 / £89.99 (about AU$180)
  • New 10mm dynamic drivers with pressure optimization and ANC
  • 7-band EQ, gaming mode and multi-point pairing

Underrated audio expert Final Audio has announced a new version of its ZE3000 true wireless earbuds, the Final ZE3000 SV. These aren't just a minor refresh: they've got brand new drivers and active noise cancelling too.

We like Final's headphones a lot, but they're not as well-known as they should be. The Final Audio UX3000 over-ears got the full five stars in our review and so did the affordable wired in-ears, the Final VR500. And we gave the Final ZE8000 MK2 earbuds four and a half stars out of five. So I'm intrigued by these, because they're promising a lot of performance for not very much money.

Final ZE3000 SV: key features and pricing

There are three key new features in these buds. The first is the new f-Core SV drivers, which are 10mm dynamic drivers – a significant increase from the previous 6mm drivers. Final says that the drivers have been designed to fully utilize the acoustic space inside the earbuds "without the need for equalization."

The second new feature is called the f-LINK Port. It's been carefully created to optimize the pressure inside the earbuds while still retaining waterproofing, and Final promises serious bass as a result.

And thirdly there's Comfort ANC, Final's latest version of active noise cancellation. The promise here is effective ANC without that weird pressure feeling you can sometimes get from ANC buds.

There's also a sub-60ms low latency gaming mode, multi-point connectivity and a seven-band equalizer in the companion app. There's support for LDAC hi-res audio up to 96kHz/24-bit, and battery life is a promised seven hours from the buds and 28 including the charging case. That's with ANC on, so is above average.

The new buds will be available from today, February 27, with a price tag of $99.99 / £89.99 / about AU$180 – we look forward to seeing how they compare to the best budget earbuds soon.

AI tools are making social engineering attacks even more convincing, and I fear that this is only the beginning

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Nick Park’s Wallace and Gromit were brought crashing into the 21st century in December 2024 with their latest adventure, Vengeance Most Fowl . The film challenges our growing dependence on smart technology in the form of a robotic garden gnome, built by Wallace to support his gardening business, which is then hacked by the Kubrick-esque Feathers McGraw for his own nefarious purposes. One of the more interesting but less commented on parts of the film shows Gromit cautiously entering his house and being greeted by what he thinks is Wallace’s reassuring voice, only to be confronted with Feathers and the robotic gnome. Technology’s ability to mimic linguistic patterns, to clone a person’s voice and understand and respond to questions has developed dramatically in the last few years. This has not gone unnoticed by the world’s criminals and scammers, with the result that social engineering attacks are not only on the rise but are more sophisticated a...
