Best Wireless Earbuds of May: Reviews & Buyers Guide

Top Picks

• Best Overall: Sony WF-1000XM4 Industry Leading 

The Sony WF-1000XM4 Industry is the greatest camera overall. As an industry forerunner, Sony is now ahead of the competition in developing completely wireless earbuds. We got to check out several WF-1000XM4s, and they're the finest the firm has ever done in terms of integrating its focus on detail into a product's usability, ergonomics, and overall quality. Though more costly, we prefer today's wireless earbuds to the Sony WF-1000XM3 headphones they replaced.

• Best Handy Grip: Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Charging Grip 

To our satisfaction, Tokyo Audio did not try to make these headphones look like those made by any other company. Just to see what it's like, check out a standalone white pair of AirPods. Choose from six delicious colors (Caramel, Popsicle, Cupcake, Blueberry, and Popcorn), enjoy 20 hours of battery life, and take advantage of features like Bluetooth 5.0, on-ear controls (including volume control), a low-latency mode, a hear-through feature, and better sound that is wider, clearer, and more all-encompassing.

• Best Charging Case: Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) Wireless Earbuds 

Apple's first generation of wireless AirPods Pro is widely regarded as among the finest in class when it comes to iPhone headphones. We found that the Pro 2's upgraded drivers and amplifiers not only provide a full and spacious sound but that the active noise cancellation (ANC) is also quite potent. This is a major upgrade over the drivers and amplifiers in the original Pro.

• Best Personalized: NEW Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II 

The Bose QuietComfort 2 Earbuds are the best earphones on the market because of how well they block outside noise. The original Bose QuietComfort headphones have been demoted in favor of these. However effective the first generation of noise-reduction techniques was, they have now been vastly improved upon. Nonetheless, this does not detract from the overall audio quality. The major emphasis of our research was on the sound quality, especially the sonic nuances and textures that were discernible.

• Best For Phone Call: Sony WF-1000XM3 Industry Leading 

The Sony WF-1000XM3 surprised us in our first evaluations with its mellow sound, sleek and contemporary appearance, and extended battery life. As an added bonus, their noise reduction was superior to that of most earphones. They may be more to your liking if the bulky design of the Apple AirPods or other earbuds with lengthy stems puts you off. But you shouldn't wear them when playing sports. We found that using them for extended periods of time did not cause any discomfort.
