Panasonic has unveiled the RB-HJ800 wireless headphones, claiming up to 100 hours of battery life on a charge with active noise cancellation switched off. With ANC enabled, the rating falls to 72 hours. Panasonic says the RB-HJ800 delivers the longest battery life of any of its wireless headphones, aided by a low-power optimized chip.
The over-ear model uses 40 mm dynamic drivers and supports Bluetooth audio with AAC and SBC codecs. It also includes a transparency mode and a physical Bass Enhancer button, allowing users to boost low frequencies without using an app.
Panasonic lists the RB-HJ800 at roughly 260 g. The headphones have soft ear cushions and a two-way folding design intended to reduce their footprint for travel.

The battery claim puts the RB-HJ800 ahead of the Technics EAH-A800, a Panasonic-owned brand’s 2022 model that was rated for up to 60 hours without ANC at launch.
In Japan, the RB-HJ800 is priced at ¥14,850. Panasonic’s official page lists a November 18, 2026 release date, while retailer listings point to November 19. International availability and pricing have not been announced.
