6 factors to check before buying new earphones

Wireless earphones are in high demand right now. This might be why every company is busy developing models and options. In fact, some companies are even busy collaborating with celebrities to put out limited edition earbuds. But, the thing is, not all earphones are created equal. To buy one that suits you, you have to wade through a sea of some amazing and some not-so-good ones. But since it is something you will be using every day, you want to invest in a pair that are reliable and worthy. Cost Don't be fooled by the earbuds that are being sold at bargain prices. The base costs might not be the deal they are being advertised for. While it might be tempting, you might not get the quality of sound, battery life, and Bluetooth connectivity. Battery You cannot go just by the playback time claimed by different brands. Despite what they say, it is better to err on the other side of caution. Once the buds are running low on power, you will have to put it back in the bud case to charge it again. Another thing to remember is that some companies may be quoting the playback time, including the multiple charging and usage times that the case has to offer. In that case, you might want to look at some better options. Control The more you are willing to spend on your new pair of earphones or earbuds, chances are, the more features you will get with them. This could include touch control pads or buttons on the device that will allow you to adjust the volume of change tracks. In fact, some really expensive ones will automatically pause whatever you were listening to when you pull the bud out of your ear. On the other hand, the cheaper ones hardly have any control options making it essential to have your phone handy in order to attend calls or make changes to the music. Take a closer look at the controls you want on your earphones and make an informed choice accordingly. Charging The case that will hold your fancy new earbuds is an important factor to consider when buying new ones. You want to ensure they are sturdy and fit to move around with you. Buying a pair of earphones with a fragile case will weigh you down with the worry of keeping it safe more than making good use of your purchase. Check for important features like the weight, charging capacity, and durability of its hinges. Noise cancellation Noise cancellation has become an important feature in both wired and wireless listening devices. While it might not be the ultimate deciding factor, it is important enough to make sure the earphones you are about to buy. You do not want the background music of the road traffic or the people surrounding you on the train. An additional feature with most earphones, including AirPods, is that they have a button you can tap to pause the music easily. Some even come with advanced settings for adjusting the level of voice cancellation. Volume Where some earphones or buds would give your enough sound output at just 50% volume, some others might feel inadequate even with the volume turned up. If you are in the store and have the opportunity to test a couple of earphone models, take that opportunity. It is even better than purchasing ear pods that have great reviews online. Despite everything, you need to find something that pairs well with your devices and delivers quality sound output. It's not like you can later plug your wireless earphones into an amplifier to increase its output. AirPods Pro 2nd generation Apple unveiled their new 2nd generation AirPods Pro on September 7.
