What are the best headphones you can buy right now?
With so many headphones out there, the best headphones vary greatly depending on what you need from them. For example, the best wireless headphones are generally a better idea if you want to listen to music while you run or exercise because they are less bulky than full headphones. Something like the Apple AirPods Pro 2 or the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II are good in both cases.
Alternatively, if you want headphones for listening to music at home or watching movies, full headphones are perfect. For audio enthusiasts, try the Sennheiser Momentum 4. Alternatively, there’s always the Sony WH-1000XM5 which is exceptional in every way.
How much should you spend on a pair of headphones?
Knowing how much to spend depends on how much you can afford to spend, as well as how often you plan to use said headphones. If you’re looking for a pair for everyday use, such as commuting or walking, it makes sense to spend as much as possible. It will be a profitable investment.
However, if you only want to use them occasionally, consider something under $150. Such headphones will still be good quality after doing your research, and even sub-$100 prices can be a good idea if you just don’t want to use them too much.
Except for the biggest audiophiles, you’re unlikely to benefit from spending more than $300.
What features should you consider when buying headphones?
It’s worth reading reviews of headphones you’re considering buying. If you’re into sound quality, this is especially important given the many marketing terms that aren’t always accurate in real-world use.
Another term for acclimatization is ANC. Active noise cancellation uses microphones to determine what sound around you to block, ensuring you only hear the music or podcast you’re listening to. Not everyone needs it, but if you travel regularly, it’s almost essential to block out random noise. Even while walking, it can block out the noise coming from wind or rain.
For most people, it makes sense to keep an eye on good battery life as well. No one wants to constantly charge their devices so aim for as high as you can afford or at least something with fast charging support.
When is the best time to buy headphones and should I wait?
The best time to buy any technology is during the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales that begin right after Thanksgiving. That remains the case for headphones if you can wait until then. Another time for great headphone deals is Prime Day. The event is technically Amazon-only, but during this period in July, other retailers often host their own sales, so you can still save on headphones elsewhere.
Smaller sales also tend to occur around Labor Day and Memorial Day. They are often more modest with occasionally better offers at other times of the year. It’s always worth keeping an eye on what’s going on because after all, you can’t always wait for the ‘optimal’ time if you need new headphones.
