The Boult Audio Mustang Q uses an over-ear fit and features a closed-back design with stereo speakers. It can be folded for more compact storage and travel, and comes with a detachable, tangle-free cable for added convenience. The headphones carry an IPX5 rating, giving them water resistance against splashes and light exposure to moisture. They are not designed specifically for children.
The Boult Audio Mustang Q is equipped with a 40 mm driver unit and covers a frequency range of 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. It relies on passive noise reduction to limit ambient sound, as it does not include active noise cancellation. The headphones also lack a neodymium magnet and do not support spatial audio.
The Boult Audio Mustang Q houses a built-in rechargeable battery with a rated life of 70 hours, and it charges via USB Type-C. A battery level indicator is included to help track remaining charge at a glance. The battery is not removable, and the headphones support neither wireless charging nor solar power.
The Boult Audio Mustang Q supports both wireless and wired connectivity, with the wireless side handled by Bluetooth 5.4 at a maximum range of 10 meters and an audio latency of 60 ms. Pairing options are limited to standard Bluetooth, as the headphones do not support fast pairing or NFC-based pairing. On the codec front, none of the advanced options are available — aptX, aptX HD, aptX Adaptive, aptX Low Latency, aptX Lossless, AAC, LDAC, LDHC, Bluetooth LE Audio, and Auracast are all absent.
The Boult Audio Mustang Q can be used as a headset, equipped with a noise-canceling microphone for hands-free calls and voice communication. Controls are placed directly on the headphone unit itself, while an in-line control panel is not included. The headphones lack ambient sound mode, in/on-ear detection, and a mute function. A 1-year warranty is provided with the product.
