Best Wireless Headphones For iPhone

A good pair of headphones is a must for anyone with an iPhone. Wireless earbuds are now the norm for smartphones that do not have audio jacks.

The Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) have better ANC and an IPX4 rating, and intuitive touchscreen controls. They also work great for calls and come with a handy case.

1. Encased Thore V200 Headphones

The Encased Thore V200 is an excellent pair of headphones with an Lightning connector as well as an iPhone port. They provide a great listening experience at a low cost. In contrast to other headphones for swimming available they have a flat foldable design making them easy to carry with you. They also come with an padded, soft and comfortable headband that's perfect for long listening sessions. The headphones also come with a protective cover that keeps them safe when they are not in use.

These headphones are elegant, with chrome and black accents that give them a contemporary elegant design. They're also lightweight and comfortable to wear for extended durations. The ear cups are closed back which means they block out ambient noise, but they won't be as effective as a pair of noise-canceling headphones. The headphones come with an aux port on the left ear cup, which is good to connect other audio devices. On the right ear cup there are controls for power and volume and the small door that is an MicroUSB port to charge. While we appreciate the fact that these headphones come with an Lightning connector and an iPhone port, we're disappointed that they don't have USB-C support.

The headphones were created for DJs musicians, music professionals and other professionals. They are constructed with high-quality parts that will give you an excellent listening experience. The headphones are equipped with Neodymium drivers that provide powerful, accurate audio. They have a wide spectrum of frequencies, meaning you'll be in a position to enjoy the full range of your favorite music. They also have a large diaphragm, which provides outstanding bass response.

The Thore V200 headphones share many of the same features as Apple's AirPods. They also come with a compact, portable case that fits easily into your bag. The headphones come with an inbuilt microphone for making calls, so you can stay connected with friends. They also come with an Lightning connector that can be connected to your phone or iPad and comes with an adapter for using the headphones with older devices. The headphones have a decent battery life of about 40 hours, meaning you can enjoy your favourite tunes for many hours before you require a recharge.

2. Headphones Sony WH-1000XM5

Sony's WH1000XM5 headphones provide an update to the top-of-the-line over-ears that were launched in 2017. The new headphones are simple, with a sleek and slim headband, circular earcups, and a polished metallic finish. These are lightweight and comfortable enough to wear for a number of hours.

The new model comes with the same excellent noise cancellation, but with four beamforming microphones for hands-free phone calls. The location awareness feature is a significant improvement, since it adjusts the settings for ambient sound depending on where you are. If you're sitting at home they may switch to a less sluggish 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 walks around town.

Another option is multipoint that allows you to connect the headphones to two devices simultaneously. This is an excellent option if you are looking to listen to music on your laptop and make calls on your phone at the same time. Multipoint isn't a feature that's enabled by default, but you can enable it using the Headphones Connect App's System tab. The downside is that when you enable multipoint you are unable to utilize the high-quality Bluetooth LDAC codec.

The Sony WH1000XM5 features the same controls for touch as the WH1000XM4s. You can manage music playback and make phone calls. You can swipe forwards and backwards on the touchpad in order to skip tracks, or reverse to play and pause. The volume and power buttons are located on the right ear cup.

If you have an iPhone and you want to customize the headphones using Siri commands. You'll also get access to other features, such as an individual assistant and a battery meter. Sony has also introduced voice prompts that guide you through the various functions of the headphones. However, I found them to be a bit chatty for a lot of users.

The WH1000XM5's battery life is 30 hours when the noise cancelling feature is turned on and the battery life is the same as previous generations. 40 hours when it's off is only a few hours less than what competitors offer. The headphones come with a soft carry bag that shields the headphones from scratches, dust and impact.

3. Shure Aonic 3 in-ear headphones

Shure is a brand that has been trusted by the audio industry for a number of years when it comes to professional monitor earphones. Their latest earphones, called the Aonic 3, are no exception. These compact, small headphones have excellent sound quality. They are easy to connect to a smartphone or music player. They come with one driver that is balanced with a surprisingly large soundstage. They also provide excellent noise isolation that allows you to focus on the music and not be distracted by. Despite being a bit smaller than their predecessors they are still a great fit for most people and are comfortable to wear for long periods for hours.

The Aonic 3's most significant distinction from their peers is their distinctive design. The Aonic 3 was designed to be a modular device that can be connected to wireless adapters. You can switch between the wireless and cable connection as your listening needs change. This versatility is a welcome addition to an already excellent pair of headphones.

Another notable feature is the Aonic's excellent equalizer. Unlike many other earphones that only provide preset equalizer settings, Shure has included a manual 4-band equalization panel. It displays detailed data on frequency as well as gain and bandwidth for the high and In Ear low shelf bands as well as two parametric bands. This allows audio professionals to fine-tune their audio before saving their customized presets. The Aonic 3's headphones are connected via MMCX connectors that face downwards. They can rotate 360 degrees and can accommodate various ear tips to ensure an easy, secure fit. They are also attached to one another by a strong locking snap.

In the box, you'll find Aonic 3s wired 3.5mm communication cable, as well as a carrying case. The cable has an audio remote control that controls playback and volume and a microphone that can make hands-free calls. You'll also receive a fit kit with multiple sizes and sleeves to tailor your Aonic 3's to provide the best listening experience. This includes a set of black foam sleeves and gray flex sleeves, in sizes that range from small to large.

4. Sony WF-C500 Wireless Earbuds

The Sony WF-C500 Wireless Earbuds are a ideal choice for anyone who wants to try wireless headphones without spending too much money. The earbuds come with a small charging case and excellent audio quality. They also sport a sleek design, making it easy to connect them to a smartphone. They are missing some essential features required for a wireless pair including active noise cancellation and transparency mode.

The earbuds sport an elegant plastic finish and a slightly bulky look. They are finished with silicone tips. They're also IPX4-rated for water resistance, which makes them suitable for cycling or running. They're not as portable as some other alternatives on our list but they're still compact enough to fit in a shirt pocket and are quite comfortable in the ears for long-term wear.

Control is handled through the aptX/AAC-compatible Sony Headphones Connect app. You can alter the EQ and set the level of Bluetooth connection quality, and adjust the balance between audio and latency and let the ear-scanning feature capture photos of your ears for customizing the fit, and use Sony's Digital Sound Enhancement Engine for high-quality files with lower resolution. You can also update the firmware, and keep track of the use of the earbuds.

The earbuds are controlled via an easy-to-understand system. A single tap on the left earbud will boost the volume. Two taps will allow you to advance or reverse the music. Three presses will launch your phone's voice assistant. The earbuds aren't equipped with an option to cancel out noise, however they can block out background noises due to the in-ear seal being solid.

The earbuds can deliver up to 20 hours of playing time, which is decent for a true wireless earbud. The earbuds are rechargeable In Ear four hours from empty and are compatible with Sony Fast Fuel charging technology. They also feature an ultra-lightweight design that makes them comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. The charging case is small enough to fit in the pocket of a coat.
