Edifier Hecate GT3 Specifications

Inside each earbud is an 11mm titanium-plated dynamic driver. Edifier is using a three-layer composite diaphragm made from TPU, PEN, and vacuum-coated titanium. According to the company, this material split separates frequency duties: the TPU layer handles bass, the PEN layer handles mid-range sounds like vocals, and the titanium coating handles higher frequencies.

Because these are branded for gaming, Edifier includes its Focus+ algorithm to enhance in-game sounds like footsteps, gunfire, and voice chat. The GT3 also offers Music and Gaming modes, along with LLAT technology to reduce wireless audio latency and keep sound synced with on-screen action.

For noise management, the earbuds offer up to -50dB hybrid ANC with Deep, Comfort, and Ambient modes. They also pack four microphones with AI noise reduction for clearer calls and in-game voice chats.

Coming to the battery life, Edifier claims up to 48 hours of playback with ANC off and volume at 50%. The earbuds last up to 12 hours per charge, while the charging case provides three additional charges. It also features 15-minute fast charging that delivers up to five hours of listening time.

The GT3 earbuds weigh 4.7 grams each and carry an IPX5 rating for water and sweat resistance. They connect via Bluetooth 6.1 and support dual-device pairing. Its companion app lets you customize touch controls, ANC settings, and audio with a six-band EQ.

In related news, OnePlus has recently launched its first clip-on earbuds with Dynaudio-tuned dual drivers and 40-hour battery life, while Edifier has launched We-Bass clip-on earbuds with 12mm drivers, IP55 rating, and 20-hour battery life.
