We\u2019ve reviewed pairs from all the brands, big and small, and know what works and what doesn\u2019t work with in-ear headphones.<\/p>\n<p>If you use your headphones for casual use or on your commute, then a wireless pair will offer more convenience as you\u2019ll be free from the dreaded scenario of tangled cables.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, wired headphones generally offer better sound quality because they transmit uncompressed audio without any Bluetooth interference. Wired headphones also don\u2019t require charging, so you won\u2019t ever be caught short on battery life (always handy for any long-haul flights).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re after more options, be sure to check out our\u00a0best wireless earbuds list, our\u00a0best noise cancelling earbuds\u00a0which are perfect for commuters or frequent fliers.

We love music and we want your tunes to sound good, too.<\/p>\n<p>So we listen every pair of headphones we can get on or in our ears. We use a variety of sources, from basic MP3s playing on a laptop to high-quality tracks on dedicated hi-res audio players.<\/p>\n<p>Our test tracks are wide-ranging to give headphones a thorough challenge. They\u2019re also familiar, so we know every track backwards, and we know which bits might trouble the lesser performers.<\/p>\n<p>We listen again and again, and we do that for weeks in case the sound changes \u2013 because it usually does. Then we\u2019ll listen to similarly priced rivals and come up with a verdict that reflects the performance and features for the money.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"phoenix-best-list-product-list-horizontal-scroll\">\n<div class=\"best-list-carousel\">\n<div

they\u2019ve succeeded in grand style<\/p>\n<p>They are a fantastic all-round effort, that in some ways are better than the likes of the Sony WF-1000XM5\u00a0and\u00a0Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds.<\/p>\n<p>Where they best those two earphones is with its call quality, with the AZ100 latching onto your voice and blocking out all the sounds around you.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the best call quality we\u2019ve experience on a true wireless so far.<\/p>\n<p>The sound is not too shabby either. It\u2019s rich but detailed, with a better bass performance than the\u00a0AZ80 model\u00a0and a more dynamic and musical presentation.<\/p>\n<p>The soundstage is wide, highs are clearl, the midrange is detailed while bass has depth. These are the best-sounding true wireless from Technics yet, and one of the best on the market too.<\/p>\n<p>The battery life depends on the mode you\u2019re listening to the earphones in. We found that in the AAC mode, they can last for a long time, but with LDAC\u00a0we managed to get less than six hours from the battery.<\/p>\n<p>The Bluetooth performance is mostly strong, though we found that in busy areas the signal can get very choppy. They do boast Bluetooth multipoint, which allows them to connect to three devices at once.<\/p>\n<p>The noise-cancellation is as good as Bose, stripping away most of the sounds around us for a quiet performance whether we were on a plane, a bus on the London Undergound.<\/p>\n<p>The transparency mode is strong too, though we don\u2019t find it to be as clear as the one on the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds.<\/p>\n<p>With lots of features, excellent sound and noise-cancellation, the Technics AZ100 are the true wireless earphones to beat.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"best-list-product\">\n<section class=\"block block-two-column-boxes pros-cons\">\n<div class=\"col\">\n<div class=\"col-content\">\n<ul>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Smaller, lighter design                <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Powerful noise-cancellation                <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    More detailed, balanced audio performance                <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Plenty of smart, convenient features                <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col\">\n<div class=\"col-content\">\n<ul>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Bose a smidge better for ANC                <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Slightly odd call performance                <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"description\">\n<p class=\"product-content\">The\u00a0WF-1000XM4\u00a0were our favourite\u00a0wireless earbuds\u00a0with their blend of terrific sound, wide feature set and excellent noise cancellation, but they have since been usurped by Sony\u2019s own\u00a0WF-1000XM5.<\/p>\n<p>They build on what the XM4 delivered with further tweaks and refinements. The design is smaller and lighter, taking inspiration from Sony\u2019s LinkBuds series. They come with an extra ear-tip size to accommodate different ear sizes.<\/p>\n<p>The noise-cancelling performance is an improvement over the WF-1000XM4, suppressing voices and ambient noise better and more naturally. We would say that the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds are better, but the difference between them is small rather than big.<\/p>\n<p>The transparency mode is clear and detailed, although we find the WF-1000XM4 slightly clearer to our ears.<\/p>\n<p>Battery life hasn\u2019t changed with the XM5 offering eight hours per charge and 24 in total with ANC enabled.<\/p>\n<p>Wireless performance is solid in both AAC and\u00a0LDAC playback modes, and the WF-1000XM5 comes bundled with an array features such as Speak-to-Chat (that pauses music when you\u2019re talking to someone else), as well as improvements to Ambient Smart Control (which personalises your audio experience automatically), that make these earphones one of the most smartest and convenient wireless earbuds you can buy.<\/p>\n<p>Call quality is decent but we found the performance a little odd. It has a tendency to leak background noise in whenever we spoke but be silent when we weren\u2019t. If you\u2019re an iOS user, you\u2019d be better served by the AirPods Pro 2.<\/p>\n<p>The sound quality is a big improvement, offering more detail, clarity, and sharpness. The midrange brings wiht it a finer sense of detail, although the bass isn\u2019t as big as the WF-1000XM4, however we prefer the balance on this model.

Improvements include reducing the noise of people\u2019s voices, and walking in and around London, there was a wonderful sense of calm and isolation.<\/p>\n<p>The wind noise that was an issue when we first reviewed appears to have gone. And the Aware mode is just as good as the noise-cancellation, piping in a clear, detailed, and natural sound that\u2019s almost as if you\u2019re not even wearing a pair of earphones.<\/p>\n<p>Bose\u2019s ActiveSense technology works similarly to the AirPods Pro 2\u2018s transparency mode, automatically reducing background noises when the buds are in Aware mode to stop the wearer from being startled by sudden, loud sounds. We found this worked very well on the London Underground.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to features, the QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds don\u2019t have as many as Sony, but we are pleased to see a three-band EQ to customise the sound. The wireless connection is excellent with barely a hint of a drop noted when walking around London, and battery is competitive with Sony, with 24 hours in total.<\/p>\n<p>Sound quality is improved from the original too, maintaining its neutrality with the top end of the frequency range brighter on this model and bass is bigger and punchier than before.<\/p>\n<p>Vocals carries slightly more weight too, and there\u2019s a better sense of depth with this one than we can recall with the original.<\/p>\n<p>Call quality isn\u2019t the best and in that sense you can get a better performance from the Technics AZ100.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"best-list-product\">\n<section class=\"block block-two-column-boxes pros-cons\">\n<div class=\"col\">\n<div class=\"col-content\">\n<ul>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Excellent ANC                <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Rich, warm sound                <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Charging case gets some neat features                <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col\">\n<div class=\"col-content\">\n<ul>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Many of the best features are iPhone and Mac only                <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"description\">\n<p>There aren\u2019t many Apple in-earphones to choose from, and we\u2019ve never been fond of the cheap wired Earphones options that use to come with iPhones. The AirPods line-up are the only show in town, and out of the current range the\u00a0AirPods Pro 2\u00a0are the best there is.<\/p>\n<p>Compared to the\u00a0AirPods 3, there are improvements all-round in terms of the design, sound and feature set.\u00a0The most obvious distinction between the two is the addition of\u00a0active noise cancellation, where the AirPods feature an open-design which means they let surrounding sounds in, which can lead to your music sessions being disrupted.<\/p>\n<p>The AirPods Pro 2 have had a major upgrade in ANC over the original. As our reviewer commented that they cleared away slightly more noise when used on the underground than the\u00a0Sony WF-1000XM4. We still find it annoying that there\u2019s no way to manually adjust the noise cancelling or transparency mode, as both automatically adapt their performance to what\u2019s around the listener.<\/p>\n<p>There is a welcome boost to battery life, with 6 hours in the earbuds and 30 in the case. The charging case also comes with some handy new features, including a lanyard loop for a wrist strap or to attach the AirPods to a bag, as well as a speaker for Find My and charging alerts.<\/p>\n<p>As with the Pros, the Pro 2 come with silicone ear tips instead of the hard plastic tips found on the AirPods 3, offering a more secure fit. This time there\u2019s also an extra small size tip for smaller ears.<\/p>\n<p>The audio quality we found to be impressive, too. The Pro 2 have a full and rich sound, with the H2 powering a performance that offers more clarity and detail with the vocals.<\/p>\n<p>As with every pair of AirPods we\u2019ve tested, iOS integration is excellent. Multi-device switching means that pairing with one Apple device will allow you to connect to your other Apple phones, laptops and tablets.\u00a0If you\u2019re already invested in the Apple ecosystem, these are the in-earphones to get for the best experience.<\/p>\n<p>As an alternative, the AirPods 4 with ANC have an open-design with some noise-cancellation sprinkled in. For those who don\u2019t like the discomfort in-ears can produce, you may prefer Apple\u2019s less expensive earphones.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"best-list-product\">\n<section class=\"block block-two-column-boxes pros-cons\">\n<div class=\"col\">\n<div class=\"col-content\">\n<ul>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Exciting, fluid, dynamic sound                <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Excellent craftmanship                <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Good noise-isolating performance                 <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Easy to drive                <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col\">\n<div class=\"col-content\">\n<ul>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Expensive                <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Can sound fatiguing at higher volumes                <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"description\">\n<p>The Andromeda earphones are one of Campfire Audio\u2019s most popular models. Since we reviewed the\u00a02019 Classic version, there\u2019s been a 2020 version, and now there\u2019s the\u00a0Andromeda Emerald Sea.<\/p>\n<p>The Emerald Sea is not as brash as its predecessor, offering a better balanced across the frequency range in terms of highs, midrange, and lows.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s still an energetic, dynamic, and propulsive listen across a range of genres, the warmth it treats music to gives it an enjoyable performance. These aren\u2019t in-earphones that need much encouragement to go loud, but broad, wide soundstage and the way it places and positions voices and instruments within it, makes for an immersive sound.<\/p>\n<p>It can sound fatiguing at higher volume levels, and it\u2019s worth considering which sources this in-ear monitor is paired with as it can affect the performance. We found it sounded clearer and sharper when matched with the\u00a0Astell &amp; Kern SR35\u00a0than the\u00a0FiiO M15s\u00a0portable music player.<\/p>\n<p>The build quality is excellent, the housing derived from a 3D printed shape that fits snugly in the ear. They\u2019re comfortable to wear although we\u2019d suggest not wearing for hours upon hours. They can start to make the wearer aware of their presence after about an hour. It\u2019s worth breaking up listening sessions every now and then.<\/p>\n<p>They also come in an attractive packaging with various cases, a certificate or purchase and a wooden box to keep them safe (or adorn on your mantelpiece). They also come with a selection of \u2018Time Stream\u2019 cables that terminate in 3.5mm unbalanced and 2.5mm and 4.4mm balanced options, giving you the option of how you want connect to a player\/hi-fi equipment.<\/p>\n<p>While they\u2019ve gone up in price to \u00a31499 \/ $1499, if you can afford them we\u2019ve found them to be nothing but enjoyable over the course of listening to them.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"best-list-product\">\n<section class=\"block block-two-column-boxes pros-cons\">\n<div class=\"col\">\n<div class=\"col-content\">\n<ul>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Comfortable, light                <\/li>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Spacious, punchy and quite balanced sound                <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col\">\n<div class=\"col-content\">\n<ul>\n<li>\n                    <i class=\"fa-solid fa-chevron-right\"\/><br \/>\n                    Need greater bottom-end control and more dynamism to their sound                <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"description\">\n<p class=\"product-content\">From the\u00a0Campfire Andromeda\u00a0to the\u00a0Final E500, we go from one end of the price spectrum to the another. At $25 \/ \u00a319.99, the E500 in-ears are as inexpensive as you can get for a pair of wired in-ears.<\/p>\n<p>At that price we\u2019re not expecting much flash in the design, and that\u2019s confirmed upon looking at the E500.<\/p>\n<p>These aren\u2019t of the calibre of Final\u2019s more expensive\u00a0Sonorous headphone range, though our reviewer felt the in-ears carried a more robust build quality than the freebie earphones that come packaged with smartphones, with the attached 1.2m cable felt heftier and more robust. At 15g they\u2019re lightweight, good enough to wear for hours at a time without causing any consternation.<\/p>\n<p>As you\u2019d expect for a pair of wired earphones there\u2019s not much on the feature front. However, the E500 does come with a supply of various silicone and\/or foam ear tips to find the right fit, and boast the same 6.4mm small aperture dynamic driver that can be found in all of Final\u2019s E-series in-ears, which cost much more than the E500.<\/p>\n<p>On the sound front we found the E500 lacked a degree of bass control, though the low end is nicely textured and is provided with good detail. Another area where they are lacking was in creating the sense of three-dimensionality in its stereo image, along with a sense of dynamism to its performance.<\/p>\n<p>But these are a \u00a319.99 pair of in-earphones after all, and for that price they are streets ahead of other similarly priced alternatives, pitching a confident, musical listen with an even-handed approach to the frequency range that doesn\u2019t over- or understate highs, mids and lows.<\/p>\n<p>We found them to be a spacious performer, displaying a good sense of timing across the frequency range to elicits a coherent and satisfying sound. If you want better, you\u2019ll need to spend more to get an in-ear from\u00a0SoundMagic.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-faqs\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\">\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1743778384043\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>What\u2019s the difference between earbuds and earphones?<\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Technically speaking, earbuds present a one-size fits all body that sits on your ear canal, while earphones come with ear-tips to burrow further into the ear for a better fit.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1743778402994\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Do all in-ears support noise cancellation?<\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No, that\u2019s dependent on the headphones. Wired in-ears won\u2019t feature any noise cancellation, instead relying on creating a passive noise isolating seal to fend of noises. Not all wireless earphones support noise cancellation, so you will need to check to specs to see if it is supported.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<section class=\"block block-mobile-ad
