Things to consider

Ready to upgrade your audio? Before you choose your next pair of headphones or a new speaker, here are some important factors to keep in mind. Don't forget to check out our Wearables for more great tech.

• Primary use: How will you use your audio device most often? For commuting, consider noise-cancelling headphones. For fitness, sweat-proof earbuds are a must. For home, a powerful Bluetooth speaker might be ideal.

• Form factor: Choose the style that best fits your lifestyle. Over-ear headphones provide the most immersive sound, on-ear models are a lighter alternative, and in-ear earbuds offer maximum portability.

• Brand reputation: Brands like Sony and Bose are known for their sound engineering, while Apple and Samsung offer seamless integration with their ecosystems.

• Budget: Determine how much you're willing to spend. There are great options at every price point, from budget-friendly choices to premium, high-fidelity models.

• Durability: Look for sturdy materials and a solid build quality to ensure your audio accessories can withstand daily use.

FAQs

• What's the difference between noise-cancelling and sound-isolating headphones?

Sound-isolating (or passive noise-cancelling) headphones physically block out external noise with a snug fit, like earplugs. Active Noise-Cancelling (ANC) headphones use built-in microphones to listen to outside noise and create an opposite sound wave to cancel it out, which is more effective for low-frequency sounds like airplane engines.

• Are wireless headphones as good as wired ones?

While audiophiles often prefer wired headphones for their consistent, uncompressed signal, modern Bluetooth headphones have come a long way. For most listeners, the convenience of wireless outweighs any subtle differences in sound quality.

• How do I clean my earbuds?

To clean your earbuds, gently wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. For the tips, remove them and wipe them with a cloth lightly dampened with water. Use a soft, dry brush to carefully clean any debris from the speaker mesh. Avoid using harsh chemicals or liquids.

• Can I use my headphones for gaming?

Yes, many headphones are great for gaming. For the best experience, look for a pair with low latency (to avoid audio lag), a comfortable fit for long sessions, and a high-quality microphone for clear communication with teammates.

• What does 'water-resistant' or 'IP rating' mean?

An IP (Ingress Protection) rating tells you how well a device is protected against dust and water. For example, an IPX4 rating means the earbuds are resistant to water splashes from any direction, making them suitable for workouts. A higher number indicates greater protection.

• How long should the battery on my wireless headphones last?

Battery life varies widely between models. Most modern wireless earbuds offer 4-8 hours of playback on a single charge, with the charging case providing an additional 20-30 hours. Over-ear headphones can often last 20-40 hours or more.

• Do I need an amplifier for my headphones?

For most headphones designed for use with smartphones and laptops, you do not need an amplifier. High-end, high-impedance audiophile headphones, however, often require an amplifier to drive them properly and reach their full potential.

• How can I make my headphones more comfortable?

Ensure you're using the correct size of ear tips for your earbuds. For over-ear headphones, adjust the headband for a snug but not-too-tight fit. If you wear glasses, look for headphones with softer earcups to reduce pressure.

• What is 'True Wireless'?

'True wireless' refers to earbuds that have no cable connecting the two earpieces. Each earbud is a separate, independent unit that connects to your device (and sometimes to each other) via Bluetooth.

• Why do my Bluetooth headphones keep disconnecting?

Disconnections can be caused by distance from your device, physical obstructions like walls, or interference from other wireless devices (like Wi-Fi routers). Try moving closer to your device, or 'forgetting' and re-pairing the headphones in your device's Bluetooth settings.
