In case you haven’t noticed, wireless headphones are the hottest thing on the market. Walking down your local street is almost impossible without seeing someone wearing a pair of designer Bluetooth headphones or earphones. Now you might be wondering why this is. Perhaps you are a creature of comfort, maybe you are used to wired headphones because it is the old reliable, it is what works. Whilst this is completely fine, we think you might change your mind by just looking at the benefits of going wireless.
In this article, we aim to look at the benefits of wireless headphones, why you should go wireless, and what wireless headphones are the best for work and play.
In all honesty, the list of benefits attached to wireless headphone use is endless; however, we will narrow it down to 3 key benefits that make wireless headphones the ultimate audio accessory.
In the modern day, with technology ever-evolving, we are being challenged more than ever before to update and upgrade our electronics. We are no longer limited to wired gadgets, many new phones don’t even have headphone jacks anymore. Bluetooth speakers, wireless phone charging and Bluetooth games controllers are all common accessories in our lives now. Wireless is the future; below, we will list 5 reasons why.
We could write a book on why wireless headphones are the way forward. You might think that the term ‘craze’ is a little extreme, but it is true. Wireless headphones have become the latest trend, and regardless of your budget or preference, we think there are so many reasons to jump on board the hype train.
You are no longer limited to wired models to take advantage of this audio feature. As earbuds and wireless headphones gain popularity, noise cancellation is becoming a standard feature for many models. We all love a bit of privacy and time to relax, especially when we are listening to our favourite podcasts, videos, or music. The noise-cancellation functionality makes wireless earbuds an excellent option for everyone. Whether you want to use your noise-cancelling button to listen to music, play a video game, or block out the unwanted noise of people in the background, you can purchase hundreds of good-quality headphones.
One thing we will say is to make sure that you look at reviews on a particular product before you use it. Some headphones might advertise noise cancelling but might not offer complete noise cancellation, it might only be partial.
How often have you hooked your headphones cable on something and had them painfully torn from your ears? Well, not anymore! One of the most straightforward and convenient features of wireless earbuds is the total freedom of movement. You no longer have to put them on and off each time you want to take off a piece of clothing. With wireless headphones or earphones, you can work out, dance, and play without the fear of your earphones being ripped off of you. No more untangling, not more frustration.
We know that wireless might be a little more expensive than wired variations, but with added price comes added quality, and there is nothing better than high-quality headphones. Many wireless headphones are known for their incredible sound quality, and whilst this might come at a larger price than wired headphones, it more than makes up for it.
When you are working out, you want to just focus on one thing…. working out. That is why wireless earphones are the ultimate choice for anyone that is active. Ideal for running or working out in the gym, when you are running, you no longer have wires dangling from you, and when you are exercising in the gym, you can leave your phone out of your pocket and out of the way. All of this whilst still enjoying great quality and sound? What more could you need?
Some entry-level headphone cords are flimsy and can be damaged during use, especially if they are accidentally snagged while you are out and about. This doesn’t happen with wireless headphones. As long as you take care of your headphones by placing them in a case when you’re not using them, they can last you an impressively long amount of time.
When it comes to work, it is all about two things, comfort and noise cancellation. To that end, we think that the headphones that offer the best mix of both are the Sennheiser Over Ear Wireless Headphones. The ear and head pads are cushioned for added comfort, but they also offer noise cancellation, so when you work in a busy home or office, you can zone everybody out.
You can also opt for a pair of headphones with a built-in moveable mic. There are very useful for video calls and then at the weekend, you can use them to wind down with some online gaming!
In the gym, people want convenience and compact design, which is why we think wireless in-ear headphones are the best option because they are small, less likely to fall out when you are moving, and light on your ears and head when you work out. There are many brilliant options out there, but a popular option that is well-priced is the Jabra Elite 4 Earphones. These earphones are sweat-resistant, noise cancelling, completely wireless, and only cost €120. Alternatively, we have the Jabra Elite 3 in stock as well for €80 if you are working on a budget.
