Check what types of wireless headphones you can find on the market

Types of wireless headphones

Among the wireless headphones, you can choose many interesting models, including:

In-ear headphones

In these models of headphones, the domes are much smaller and rest on the ears but do not surround them. They are light in weight and size, and for your comfort, manufacturers have created over-ear headphone models with a foldable headband to make them easier to transport. Because they take up some space and are held on a single headband, they are not very comfortable during workouts, for example. When bending down or running, they can easily slip off your head and fall off. However, they provide sound at a very high level. The insulating material, made from eco leather or velour, ensures that all external sounds are perfectly muffled. They can be a great companion during home office or gaming.

Round-ear

This model of wireless headphones is the largest, because large domes surround your ears, which guarantees almost 100% suppression of ambient sound. However, the large earcups do not allow you to transport them, hide them in a bag or backpack. They can be used at home.

Suntory

Recently such models were very fashionable among athletes. They cover only the auricle and are held on a headband, which can be conveniently folded. Among these models, there are also those that have a headband located at the back of the head, which makes it much easier to use them and perform a workout at the same time. In addition, they are characterized by their small size and ease of transport.

Earbuds

A real hit of this season, earbuds are loved by many people, including celebrities. This model of wireless headphones is most often chosen by athletes and people who do not like to feel headband on their head. Modern models are equipped with a microphone, which enables conversation even during training or driving. The sound goes directly to the ear canal, which does not allow for long listening, but in case of an hour walk or a short drive they will be perfect. Their additional advantage is the possibility of charging using a case that comes with the headphones. At home, you can charge them with a USB cable, and when the headphones are running low on power, you can charge them anywhere by putting them inside.
