Best Wireless Headphones For iPhone

A good pair of headphones is essential for an iPhone. With newer phones no longer equipped with audio jacks, wireless earbuds are the best option.

The Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) come with better ANC, an IPX4 rating, and easy-to-use touch controls. They are also great for making calls and come with a case.

1. Encased Thore V200 Headphones

The Encased Thore V200 is a great pair of headphones that has an Lightning connector and an iPhone port. These headphones provide a pleasant listening experience for a reasonable price. In contrast to other headphones available, these have flat foldable designs which makes them easy to pack and take with you. They also come with a padded, soft headband that's ideal for long listening sessions. The Headphones Bluetooth also come with a protective cover that protects them when they are not in use.

These headphones are elegant with black and chrome accents, giving them a modern, sleek appearance. They are light and comfortable enough to wear for long periods of time. The ear cups with a closed back block out ambient noise, but aren't as efficient as a pair of noise-canceling headphones. The headphones feature an aux port located on the left earcup, Headphones bluetooth which is good to connect other audio devices. On the right earcup, there are controls for power, volume, and an MicroUSB charging port. We like that the headphones come with an Lightning connector, but we're disappointed they don't support USB-C.

The headphones were developed for DJs, professionals in music and other professions. They are built with premium components that will give you an excellent listening experience. The headphones are fitted with neodymium audio drivers that produce powerful and accurate audio. They offer a wide spectrum of frequencies, meaning you'll be capable of hearing the full range of your music. They feature a large diaphragm which provides excellent bass response.

The Thore V200 headphones share many of the same features as Apple's AirPods. They also come in a small and portable case that can fit easily into your bag. The headphones include a built-in mic for making calls, allowing you to remain in contact with your friends. The headphones feature a Lightning connector to connect to your iPhone or iPad. They also come with an adapter so you can use them on older devices. The headphones boast a remarkable battery life of 40 hours. You can play your favourite tunes for a long time before you need to recharge them.

2. Headphones Sony WH-1000XM5

Sony's WH1000XM5 headphones provide minor improvements to the flagship over-ears launched in 2017. The new headphones are minimalistic with a sleek and slim headband, earcups that are circular, and a polished metallic finish. These are extremely lightweight and comfortable to wear for a long time.

The new model offers the same outstanding noise cancellation and is augmented with four beamforming microphones for hands-free calls. A notable improvement is location awareness which adjusts ambient sound control settings according to where you are. If you are sitting still at home, they could switch to a subtler noise cancelling level compared to those on the train. They can also pipe in more outside audio to help you stay aware of your environment on walking around town.

Multipoint is another feature that lets you connect headphones to two devices simultaneously. This is a fantastic feature for those who are looking to listen to music on your laptop and take calls on your phone at the same time. Multipoint isn't a feature that's disabled by default, but you can easily enable it using the Headphones Connect App's System tab. The downside is that when you enable multipoint, you'll can't utilize the high-quality Bluetooth LDAC codec.

The Sony WH1000XM5 features the same controls for touch as the WH1000XM4's. You can manage music playback and make phone calls. Swipe forward and backwards on the touchpad to skip tracks or back and forth to pause and restart playback. The volume and power buttons are located on the right ear cup.

If you own an iPhone you can personalize the headphones with Siri commands. You'll also have access to additional features such as an individual assistant and a battery meter. Sony is also introducing voice prompts to guide users through the headphones' functions, though I found that they may be too tense for certain users.

The WH-1000XM5s' battery lifespan of 30 hours with noise cancellation on is similar to the previous generation, while 40 hours without it is less than what other brands are offering. The headphones in ear also come with soft carrying case that shields them from dust, scratches as well as minor water damage.

3. Shure Aonic 3 In-Ear Headphones

In terms of high-end monitor earphones for professional use, Shure has long been an established name in the audio industry. The Aonic 3 is no exception. These small, compact earbuds have a great sound quality and are easy to connect to your smartphone or music player. The earbuds have a single balanced driver that produces a large soundstage. They provide excellent sound isolation so that you can focus on the music. They are smaller but they still fit the majority of users well and are comfortable for long periods of time.

The Aonic 3's most significant difference from their brethren is their unique design. The Aonic 3 is designed to be an adaptable device that can be connected with wireless adapters. You can switch between the wired and wireless connection when your needs for listening change. This versatility is a welcome addition to an already excellent pair of headphones.

Aonic's equalizer is yet another outstanding feature. Unlike many other earphones that only provide preset equalizer settings, Shure has included a manual equalization panel with four bands. It displays detailed data on frequency of gain, bandwidth and frequency for both the high and low shelf bands as well as two parametric bands. This allows audio professionals to fine-tune their audio prior to saving their custom presets. The Aonic 3's earphones are connected to one another via downward-facing MMCX connectors. They can rotate 360 degrees and can accommodate different ear tips to ensure an easy, secure fit. They also attach to each other with a strong, locking snap.

In the box, you'll find Aonic 3s, a wired 3.5mm communication cable, and a carrying case. The cable comes with a remote control for playback and volume as well a microphone to make calls hands-free. You'll also receive a fit kit with multiple sleeves and sizes to customize your Aonic 3's for an optimal listening experience. This kit includes black foam sleeves and gray flex sleeves in sizes ranging from small to large.

4. Sony WF-C500 Wireless Earbuds

The Sony WF-C500 Wireless Earbuds are a great option for anyone looking to try wireless headphones without spending much money. The earbuds come with a small charging case, excellent audio quality and an elegant design that allows them to be easily connected with a smartphone. They lack some important features for a wireless pair, such as active sound-canceling, and transparency mode.

The earbuds have an elegant plastic finish and a slightly bulky appearance. They are topped with silicone tips. The earbuds have an IPX4 rating for water resistance, and are suitable for cycling or running. They're not as lightweight as some other options, but they're still small enough to fit into a shirt pocket and are fairly comfortable to wear for long-term wear.

The Sony Headphones Connect App, which is compatible with aptX/AAC, lets you control the headphones. This is where you can alter the EQ settings and set the priority for Bluetooth connection quality (between the quality of audio and latency) and let the ear scanning feature take pictures of each ear for customization of the fit, and enable Sony's Digital Sound Enhancement Engine to up-convert lower resolution music files. You can also update the firmware and track the use of your earbuds over time.

An easy, intuitive control scheme is used to operate the earbuds. One touch on the left earbud will increase the volume, two presses will skip forward or backwards through an album and three presses will activate your phone's voice assistant. The earbuds don't have an option to cancel out noise, however they can block out ambient noises thanks to the in-ear seal that is solid.

The earbuds are able to play for a time of up to 20 hours, which is good for true wireless earbuds. They can be charged from a dead battery in around four hours and are compatible with Sony's Fast Fuel charging technology, which allows for a quick top-up when the battery is low. The earbuds are also a lightweight design that makes them comfortable to wear for long periods. The charging case is small enough to fit in the pocket of a coat.
