Noble FoKus Artemis Wireless Over-Ear Headphones
NOBLE AUDIO FOKUS ARTEMIS FLAGSHIP WIRELESS HEADPHONES DEBUT AT HIGH END VIENNA 2026
Noble Audio has announced the Noble FoKus Artemis, a new flagship wireless over-ear headphone that builds on the technology introduced in the company’s FoKus Apollo model.
The new headphone is having its first public showing at High End Vienna 2026 and represents Noble Audio’s latest move in the premium wireless headphone sector.
NOBLE FOKUS ARTEMIS WIRELESS OVER-EAR HEADPHONES
While the FoKus Apollo combined dynamic and planar magnetic driver technologies, the FoKus Artemis introduces a third driver type to the design. The headphone uses a hybrid configuration consisting of one dynamic driver, one balanced armature driver and one planar driver.
According to Noble Audio, each driver has a specific role within the design, with the dynamic driver handling bass and overall weight, the balanced armature contributing detail and articulation, and the planar driver providing speed and extension.
PERSONALISED LISTENING WITH AUDIODO
The FoKus Artemis is being developed with Audiodo Personal Sound and Audiosphere technologies. These features allow users to create a personalised hearing profile through a guided hearing assessment, enabling playback adjustments based on individual hearing characteristics rather than relying solely on conventional EQ presets.
Noble Audio plans to integrate these functions into an updated version of the Noble FoKus app, with demonstrations of the technology expected during High End Vienna 2026.
NOBLE FOKUS ARTEMIS CONNECTIVITY AND WIRELESS FEATURES
The FoKus Artemis is based on Qualcomm’s QCC3095 platform and supports Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity. The headphone includes multipoint pairing, allowing simultaneous connections to multiple devices, and also supports USB audio playback.
For users who prefer a wired connection, the headphone can be used via a 3.5mm connection using the supplied USB-C to 3.5mm adaptor cable.
ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLATION AND DAILY USE
Designed for both music listening and everyday use, the FoKus Artemis incorporates Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency Mode. A six-microphone system supports voice calls and noise-management functions, while additional features include voice assistant support, proximity sensing and app-based controls.
BATTERY LIFE AND SERVICEABILITY
Noble Audio states that the FoKus Artemis is designed to deliver more than 50 hours of playback, or more than 35 hours with ANC enabled. The headphone uses a 600mAh battery and supports fast charging, with a charging time of less than 1.5 hours via USB-C.
One notable aspect of the design is its fully user-replaceable battery, a feature intended to support long-term ownership and maintenance.
NOBLE AUDIO FOKUS ARTEMIS DESIGN AND BUILD
The headphone weighs less than 350g and features a rotating design intended to improve portability. Other practical features include replaceable ear cushions, magnetic detachable ear pads and an IP52 rating for resistance to dust and water ingress.
These features are intended to make the FoKus Artemis suitable for a range of listening environments, including home use, commuting, office work and travel.
NOBLE FOKUS ARTEMIS PRICE AND AVAILABILITY
Noble Audio are currently showcasing a near-final version of the FoKus Artemis at High End Vienna 2026, with final software integration and tuning continuing ahead of launch. Pre-orders open on 4th June 2026, with shipping expected in July 2026. Pricing is set at $899, £799 and €949.
