Despite the market size, these are the top wireless headphones for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Macs that we evaluated. Some of these features are wired connections in conjunction with Bluetooth if you prefer them. However, we also have a list of the top wired headphones.

And if you’re wondering why and how the AirPods Max didn’t cut, guarantee that we considered them carefully. However, despite their exceptional audio quality, their exorbitant price and poorly thought-out case design prevented them from cutting this list of the best wireless headphones. For a detailed explanation, read our in-depth Headphone Max review.

• Wireless Sennheiser CX Plus

Sennheiser recently released the CX Plus, an improved version of their well-liked CX True Wireless earphones that adds active noise canceling and support for AptX while maintaining a low price of $179/£129 (right now in the US, it’s on sale for $129.95). The CX Plus retains the same somewhat hefty form as its predecessor, which is still available for £119. However, that’s a small quibble because the CX Plus offers excellent value for money thanks to its appealing sound quality and useful noise-canceling functions.

A good-sized battery that can last for about eight hours with a single charge is also possible because of the size of the earbuds. The CX Plus is a good choice for long trips because you can recharge the earbuds twice more using the charging case, giving you between 21 and 24 hours of music playtime, depending on how much noise cancellation you use.

Regular travelers will also value the noise-canceling functions because they eminorively reduce background noise. The Sennheiser app offers some basic EQ options. In addition to thvaluablesparency feature of many earphones, the app enables you to establish and save sound zones for particular situations with unique settings, like the gym or a train, and play them back later.

Sound Quality:

The sound quality of the CX Plus is excellent for headphones in this price range, and it supports both Apple AAC for Bluetooth and AptX for Android devices. The opening of Blondie’s Rapture begins with a clean, precise cymbal crash, and the CX Plus then plays the enticing chord progression with a hip-swaying beat.

The sound is also incredibly accurate, picking up on all the minute background nuances like the ticking drumming and jangling accompanying guitar. The CX Plus comes out as a fantastic all-around set of headphones at a very affordable price. The charging case does not enable wireless charging, but it is an acceptable tradeoff at this price.

• The Bowers & Wilkins PI5

Bowers & Wilkins’ PI5 wireless earbuds’ appealing sound quality doesn’t disappoint; the company has a long history of creating high-grade headphones and speakers. The PI5, which comes in black or white and costs $249/£199 is an excellent alternative to the Earbuds because they also have active noise-cancellation and a wireless charging case.

Indeed, the earbuds’ hefty design may not be for everyone, but B&W offers three sizes of earplugs to help you find a decent fit, and the wireless headphones have an IP54 classification for water and dust protection, so they’re durable enough to handle life outside.

The PI5 will also be an excellent alternative for non-Apple devices because the sound quality is superb, and it supports both Apple’s AAC and AptX for Bluetooth audio. The Rolling Stones’ “Start Me Up” opens with a fantastic, laid-back guitar riff, and the PI5 expertly captures Charlie Watts’ crisp, uncomplicated drumming. On The Orb’s Prime Evil, though, the PI5 truly digs down to provide the sinister bass effects of the dance music with an amazingly slinky pace.

The noise-cancellation features also function well, eliminating background noise without degrading the music quality. They also include an “ambient” mode that lets you listen for background noise when you need to, just like most headphones.

When noise-cancellation, the battery life is 4.5 hours, which could be a little longer. The wireless power case enables you to recharge the earphones three more times while you’re away from home, although that is comparable to the pricier AirPods Pro.

• Pro Apple AirPods

In addition to offering active noise-cancellation (ANC) characteristics that many competing earbuds have long had, the AirPods Pro was finally released in 2019 with a more contemporary design incorporating silicon ear tips for a tighter, snug fit. The AirPods Pro, as expected, cost more than prior AirPods models, but their price is still comparable to other high-end earbuds.

Of course, they cost less than half as much as the absurdly costly over-ear AirPods Max. The tiny sensor on the earphones’ stem is more sensitive and user-friendly than the one on the standard AirPods, making it simpler to manage your music.

Additionally, the tighter fit improves the sound quality, and the AirPods Pro sounds unquestionably better than the standard AirPods (either 2nd or 3rd gen models). The bass in Billie Eilish’s song You Should See Me in A Crown is substantially louder than on the 3rd generation AirPods and has a deep, menacing tone that fits the song’s theme. The Bluetooth Headphones also pick up all the finer subtleties at higher frequencies, like the tense tension of the drumming that beats in the background.

Additionally, the noise-canceling capacitor straightforwardperform admirably, and a “transparent” mode enables you to focus on ambient noise as necessary. The main drawback is that the noise-canceling feature has a battery life of only 4.5 hours, but the wireless charging case allows you to top off the battery while traveling so that you can use it for 24 hours in total.
