The Soundcore by Anker Space A40 Earbuds can block background noise, up to 98 percent, with Adaptive Active Noise Cancelling, so engine noise, chatter, and traffic sounds become almost inaudible. They remain small and lightweight, and the case is small enough to carry in your pocket. The earbuds feature Double-Layer Drivers that deliver strong bass, clear vocals, and detailed highs. They also support Hi-Res Wireless Audio via LDAC on supported phones.
Galaxy Buds 3 FE are currently going for just $110 at Amazon, after the retailer took a massive 27% off their usual $150 price. The offer applies to both the classic black and the stunning gray color options, but there's a catch. The discount is only around for today. It ends at midnight, which means you don't have a lot of time left to save. Additionally, you're also getting a two-month free trial to Audible with your purchase,
They're incredibly detailed, particularly for earbuds, regardless of your favorite genre. Our reviewer Ryan Waniata "had a lovely time letting the buds loose across [his] whole music library" and had high praise for the excellent dynamics and precision. If you're an audio nerd who wants every note to stand out and shine, these are a great pick, particularly without the high price barrier.
Unlike almost every other pair I've owned, dropping the charging case won't send the earbuds flying across the room. For my fellow clumsy humans, I'm happy to report that the Skullcandy Method 360 ANC (8/10, WIRED Review) are marked down at several retailers. I found the best price on the white (Bone) pair at Amazon, but some of the other colors are discounted too if you don't mind paying a little extra.
The AirPods Pro are about as ubiquitous as earbuds can get. Step outside your door, and you're almost certain to see people wearing them. For good reason, too. Their active noise cancelling (ANC) is excellent for the price, sound quality is great, and they're comfortable and convenient. If it ain't broke, why fix it? After all, messing with a winning formula just for the sake of change often ends up in disappointment.
Bose has announced a second-generation version of its QuietComfort Ultra wireless headphones it first introduced nearly two years ago. The name is the same, but the new Ultra finally adds support for listening to lossless audio over a USB-C cable, while still carrying forward the 2.5-millimeter analog headphone jack for those who don't always want to go wireless. Available for preorder starting today through Bose's online store, the second-generation QuietComfort Ultra is priced at $449 - a small price bump over the $429 originals.
