True Wireless Earbud Headphones

Buying true wireless headphones

What are truly wireless earbuds and headphones?

Wireless headphones are well-known, but many people don’t know the difference between wireless and true wireless headphones. Truly wireless earbuds and headphones are considered “truly wireless” because all of their controls are housed in the earbuds or headphones themselves, leaving none exposed. That means that features like sound control, batteries, or microphones are all built in and function using Bluetooth, without having to rely on any cords or wires connected to a smartphone. On other cordless headphones, the earbuds don’t have to be plugged into a device, but they may be connected via a small cord that has the volume and voice controls. While those are comfortable and offer a range of motion while you wear them, nothing compares to the flexibility and ease of use of truly wireless earbuds.

True wireless headphone considerations

Due to their truly wireless design, these earbuds and headphones come with a charging case that doubles as a carrier. The charging case will need to be charged via USB cable or other small wire. The beauty of this type of charging is that once the case is fully charged, it will continue to charge the true wireless earbuds and headphones as long as they are inside – no matter if the case is plugged in. This makes this true wireless design ideal for travel; simply stash your true wireless headphones in your luggage and know that they’re charging while you’re en route to the airport or train station, and enjoy high-quality audio when you’re ready to take them out of the case. Most truly wireless hearbuds and headphones have a battery life spanning a few hours from the point of being fully charged.

This style of earbud is also great for working out; you’ll never have to worry about cords tangling around you while you’re on the treadmill or lifting weights. Keep in mind that the range of true wireless earbuds and headphones will be determined by how close they are to the connected device, and there are varying ranges available.
