Today it is rare to talk about headphones and not think about wireless, since there are many advantages that these devices offer over wired ones. Perhaps recharging them is their main disadvantage, but if they have good autonomy and sound quality it can be supported without problem. Being able to listen to music, podcast or watch series and movies with them from the iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Mac or any other device with Bluetooth is wonderful. In this article we bring you the most recommended ones.
Apple Brand Headphones
AirPods 2, the cheapest of the company
These headphones feature the classic Apple headphone design, but without cables. Although there is a ‘Pro’ range that we will talk about later, these are still highly recommended because they are cheaper and also have interesting discounts in stores such as Amazon. There are two versions, one with a case that can be recharged wirelessly and another whose case is only charged by cable; otherwise they are identical versions. Good quality, excellent connectivity with Apple devices and autonomy of up to 4 hours uninterrupted are the main strengths of these headphones.
AirPods Pro, the best cancellation in hearing aids
These are the top-of-the-range headphones in this category of Apple products. They have an in-ear design that tries to better adapt to the ears, with three sizes of ear pads to help in this process. Its main advantage over normal AirPods is that it has noise cancellation, being one of the best in headphones of this type, being very helpful when you try to listen to music in a noisy environment. Its battery is similar to that of the AirPods 2 and its case is rechargeable both by cable and through a wireless charging base. Officially it is worth almost 280 euros, but it can be discounted on Amazon.
Powerbeats 4, ideal for athletes
Yes, the Beats brand is also owned by Apple since 2014 and in its catalog we can find interesting headphones like these Powerbeats. They may not be the ones with the best sound quality, and may be lower than that of the AirPods, but they are ideal for the public looking for an off-road headset that they can take anywhere without fear of getting lost. They are hooked by a very comfortable rope that does not rub on the neck and is available in various colors.
Powerbeats Pro, the improved version
If the previous ones do not convince you for sound quality, surely those of the ‘Pro’ range will, since they considerably improve the normal Powerbeats in terms of sound quality and battery. Their design is not really very different, but they do not have a rope that connects them. Despite that, they fix very well on the ear and also allow you to do sports comfortably thanks to specifications such as resistance to water and sweat, so if you get caught in a storm you will not be in trouble either.
Beats Studio3 Wireless, the jewel in the crown
These headphones, already in a headband style, provide a sound quality far superior to previous headphones. In this case we find ourselves with the top of the range of the Beats brand, with a noise cancellation that may not be the best on the market, but it has nothing to envy others in terms of utility. Its battery allows to have an autonomy of up to 22 hours, so it would be possible not to recharge them for weeks. Of course, its compatibility with iOS is the best, but it is just as compatible with other Apple or Android devices.
Other brands of Bluetooth headphones
Sony WH1000XM4, if they are not the best they look a lot like it
These are the highest-end headphones from Sony, which have a tremendously comfortable design despite being a headband. Its sound quality is good in all sound ranges, with practically no fault with it. Its noise cancellation is the best on the market and only Bose headphones can match, although both are in the end tied in this regard. Their price may be high, but they are headphones that last for many years and whose investment pays off quickly. They also have one of the most complete apps to adjust everything.
Bose 700, another king in sound and cancellation
We said before that the Bose 700 were the only worthy rivals of the Sony and it is totally true. Choosing one or the other is ultimately more a matter of taste than of anything else. Their design is somewhat more risky, but they look very elegant and have some spectacular sound functions. Very clear audio quality in all kinds of ranges and a noise cancellation mode that will even allow you to isolate yourself in noisy environments such as airplanes. Its price is somewhat cheaper, which could be a determining factor in the choice.
Huawei FreeBuds 3, perfect alternative to AirPods
We return to hearing aids of this type in the compilation to talk about a great alternative to Apple headphones. And yes, they are Huawei brand, but they work perfectly for Apple computers. They have a design that is very reminiscent of AirPods, with more than good sound quality and that adds noise cancellation, being one of the few headphones with a design that is not in-ear and incorporates such functions. They have a case that can be recharged on a wireless base and their price is quite competitive, so it can definitely be a good option.
Sony WF1000XM3, the best in-ear?
Other Sony headphones that stand out for being possibly the best headphones of this type on the market. They are something like the little brothers of the headband and that rival one-to-one with the AirPods Pro. They have very good noise cancellation and their sound quality is greatly improved thanks to their complete application in which to find all kinds of adjustments to adapt them to our liking. Its design may not be the prettiest of those seen here, but in the end it will end up making up for it with its excellent performance.
