Pros and cons
Coolblue Belgium
Pros
- You have 30 days to send an order back, which takes the risk out of a big purchase.
- Every product carries 2 years of cover, and an extended warranty is available on top of it.
- Delivery is free on every order, with the threshold at €0, and click and collect is offered for small items.
Cons
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre only, so there is no live chat in the list.
- The noise cancelling earbuds listed run 8 hours on a charge, well under the 40 median across the products compared here.
- A 30 days return window places Coolblue Belgium at 3 of 80 brands compared, so it is not the longest window in the field.
Edifier
Pros
- The catalogue spans headphones, earbuds and speakers, where HyperX lists headphones and earbuds and CORSAIR lists headphones.
- Entry pricing of $7.99 ranks 2 of 64 brands, near the front of the field on starting cost.
- Noise cancelling is available and the listed battery figure of 49 hours sits just above the 40 hour median across the site.
Cons
- Warranty runs 1 to 2 years, so entry models carry the shorter term rather than the longest cover on offer.
- The direct store serves US, CA and AU, so buyers in other markets buy through a different route to the same range.
- Turntables sit outside the Edifier line, while JBL covers them within headphones, earbuds and speakers.
Who each suits
Coolblue Belgium
Who it suits
- Belgian shoppers filling a whole tech list at once, since computers, phones and audio covers audio, computers, phones, gaming, cameras and appliances in a single place.
- Audio buyers who would rather hear a pair at home, with 30 days to send them back and click and collect if picking up suits better.
- Computer and tablet buyers, since the operating systems covered run Windows, macOS and chromeos.
Who should look elsewhere
- Banggood, if you want a store whose categories are computers, phones and audio and do not include the refurbished line Coolblue Belgium carries.
- JBL, for a single brand audio shop: its categories are audio, gaming and refurbished, so anyone also needing a computer or an appliance has to look elsewhere.
Edifier
Who it suits
- Shoppers building a single audio setup across headphones, earbuds, speakers, soundbars and hi-fi under one name.
- Gamers on PC, PlayStation, Switch or mobile, since the gaming range covers pc, playstation and switch and wireless is supported.
- Buyers in the US, Canada or Australia, where the direct store serves US, CA and AU.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who want turntables: JBL covers headphones, earbuds and speakers, which runs past the hi-fi end of the Edifier range.
- Buyers who only need personal audio can compare HyperX at headphones and earbuds or CORSAIR at headphones rather than a catalogue that also carries speakers and hi-fi.

Questions about each
Coolblue Belgium
What does audio cost at Coolblue Belgium?+
Wired earphones are listed from €22.99, which sets the floor for the audio side of the shop. Speakers, soundbars, hi-fi and turntables sit alongside them, and the wider catalogue runs across computers, phones and audio for anyone buying several things in a single order.
How long do I have to return something?+
You have 30 days to return an order, a comfortable window if a product does not fit your setup. That places Coolblue Belgium at 3 among 80 brands compared on this measure, so the window is strong without being the longest on the list.
Edifier
How much does Edifier cost at the cheapest end?+
The catalogue starts at $7.99, taken from the store's lowest priced listings rather than from a flagship pair. That entry figure ranks 2 of 64 brands on starting price, so the budget end is where Edifier is most competitive. Pricier tiers sit above it.
Does Edifier make noise cancelling headphones?+
Yes. Noise cancelling is listed for the over-ear headphones, and that model also carries 49 hours of battery with ldac codec support. The feature is recorded against the headphone rather than the whole catalogue of headphones, earbuds and speakers, so check each model before buying.
