Product Information

The original Apple AirPods Pro are among our choice of the best true wireless earbuds, especially if you have an iPhone, allowing you to take full advantage of the Apple-centric features. But the Pro 2 are a significant step up, offering improved audio performance that's rich and expansive – thanks to new drivers and amplifiers – as well as better ANC, which we found to be extremely impressive during our testing. Pairing failure between Bluetooth earbuds and smartphone – most of the time it happens that when you try to connect your best Bluetooth earbuds with a smartphone or tablet the pairing process seems to run forever, or you will be greeted with an error message. Of course, it is a common problem for wireless earbud for running that can be fixed. Whether you need extra features, such as voice assistant controls or an app to tweak, also depends on how you plan on using them. Not everyone needs to be able to tweak an equalizer for themselves but if you're that person, you'll be frustrated by an option that doesn't allow for customization. Plus, I’d never actually thought about the proximity to the jaw. Great shout Kenny, makes a lot of sense.

If you want an Apple AirPods-style true wireless earbuds experience but don't want to swap from your Android phone to get all of the features, then the Honor Earbuds 3 Pro are some of the best true wireless earphones you can buy today. But they're a weaker choice if you have an iPhone, because there's no iOS app on offer here. The best way to ensure the earbuds fit perfectly to your ears is to test them out. This is possible if you’re choosing them in a physical store. It saves you the trouble of hoping for the earbuds to fit and finding out they’re not later. 2. Use wireless earbuds with ear hooks. Tied to this, of course, are other factors such as battery life. The best wireless earphones all have enough battery life for the average listening session but some do last longer than others. Most pairs will have a combined earbud and case battery life of 18 hours or more, though, so you shouldn't be caught out during long-haul flights, though some people might care for a higher earbud battery life for continuous listening without having to pop them into the case to charge. So, I constantly find myself playing around with my earbuds trying to get them to sit just right in my ears.

Common Causes of Malfunctioning Bluetooth Earbuds

When there is no connection between your wireless earbuds and smartphone or computer, you can’t achieve your purpose of buying them.

The design of the Melomania 1 Plus hasn’t deviated too far from its predecessors, but during our testing we found that there’s a clear step up in terms of audio performance here. The levels of detail and clarity rival some of thebest over-ear headphones you can buy. Add to that, there's a helpful accompanying app, easy controls, and excellent connectivity, which made us love them even more. There are a few methods of repairing your earbuds, but it does depend on what type you’re using. Each one is different and will need a specific repairing technique. Once you know how to repair a set of headphones though, you’ve got a skill that could be rather handy in the future! The Ultra actually replace the company's 2022 What Hi-Fi? Award winner – the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II, so shop around and you might be able to find a big chunk of cash slashed off the older pair. It's an option worth considering. It’s not in my shoe to tell you what to do with the earwax, but if it’s bad enough for the earbuds to keep slipping off, you need to do something. There are some surprising features included here too, like on-earbud controls and built-in mics that we think are decent enough for making phone and video calls.

And then light of the main earbud that will flash, which means the headphone turns to looking for devices to connect to. There’s no way around this. Wireless earbuds are a less sustainable option than their wired counterparts. They don’t last as long because of the built-in batteries and they’re not yet designed to be recyclable. Easy to lose These cubist, cool, refreshingly different Audio-Technica ATH-SQ1TW earbuds are clear proof that Audio-Technica is going from strength to strength. That's 60 years of hi-fi heritage right there (albeit predominantly in analog audio, rather than these little things) and Audio-Technica has earned the right to confidently go its own way. And we think they're brilliant options that more than justify their price tag. The buds are impressively small, and their lightweight design helps make them even more comfortable than Sony's XM4. Battery life is competitive at seven and a half hours. Swap to another ear tips – the ear canal might not be giving the ear tip a good seal due to the size, and for your wireless Bluetooth earbuds to work correctly, they need to be sealed completely. For this reason, many of the best Bluetooth earbuds come with different sizes of ear tips. Remove the ear tips on your earbuds and replace it with another one until you get the one that will give your earbuds a good seal and prevent them from falling out. In case none of the wireless earbuds extra ear tips work for you, try to get a third-party or customized pair of ear tips. Take note that some earbuds come with ear tips that fit almost all ears no matter the shape.

You won't find clever additions like voice control, noise cancelling or transparency modes on wired models, as the battery and chip within wireless buds and their cases enable these features. Now you've got that far, you need to think about how you plan on using them. Some of the earbuds above are more secure in your ear when working out or exercising, while others are better suited to wearing on your commute or while sitting at home. And I returned the phones and got a second pair through my supplier, in case I had a faulty pair. No good - the touch controls were still too unreliable to use. AT has not tried to emulate any other earbuds, or indeed any competing brand here and we love the Tokyo audio outfit for it. These buds are available in no fewer than six delicious-sounding colorways (Caramel, Popsicle, Cupcake, Blueberry, Liquorice and Popcorn –try that for size, ice-white-only AirPods) and you're getting Bluetooth 5.0, 20 hours of battery, a beautiful product that fits comfortably, on-ear controls that work well (including volume) plus a low-latency mode, a hear-through function and a sound that's more expansive, clearer and generally better than anything else you can buy for this money.

The downside is the codecs: these use SBC, the least good kind of Bluetooth audio; there's no support for aptX, LDAC or the like. However, they're perfectly good for audiobooks and podcasts, and while they might not be as clearly musical as their more expensive rivals they're not bad either.

Ensure a perfect seal in the ear canal – we have mentioned it earlier that a perfect seal can improve the performance of your earbuds and provide better sound quality. You can achieve this by using the right ear tips for your ears shape and size and also get rid of moisture and wax in the ear canal. Having earbuds constantly falling out of your ears is a sure way of building up frustration. It could also cost you dearly if you’re wearing true wireless earbuds. Without an attached wire, the impact could spell the end of that earbud, or it could end up in the toilet. The hi-fi brand Technics has delivered the first range of products offering multipoint connection to three devices, so you can keep the buds in touch with your desktop computer, iPad and smartphone without needing to disconnect again and again. When a FaceTime call comes in on one device, the audio switches without issue. Feeling intimidated by the huge amount of choice? It helps to focus on the features that matter most to you, as not every pair will be all-rounders suitable for every scenario.

A 5-Step Guide to Fixing Your Earbuds

We like that the brand has shrunk down the charging case from its previous iteration too. On test, we brought these on a flight and found that they completely silenced the cabin, just as well as they do in louder environments like certain sections of the London Underground.
