Bose, Xiaomi, Apple, JBL: which wireless headphones to choose?
For several years, the biggest manufacturers (Bose, JBL, Apple, Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi, Sony, etc.) have been competing in ingenuity and innovation to offer ever more efficient wireless headphones.
There are many models, included in a very wide price range.
To find the most suitable product for your needs, you should consider a number of factors:
The shape:
there are three main families of Bluetooth headphones.
Those in the shape of buttons (which are placed in the hollow of the ear), intra-auricular devices (in rubber, silicone or foam) and semi-intra-auricular devices, which are less intrusive and more suitable for sports practice.
Autonomy:
the wireless earphones are equipped with transport boxes with integrated battery.
To be recharged, they are generally equipped with micro-USB or USB-C ports.
Earbuds with the best battery life can work for up to 8 hours straight.
The protection index:
it indicates the level of resistance of the headphones against solids and liquids (for example, dust and water).
It begins with IP, imperatively followed by two digits.
If you see the IPX certification, that means they are only water protected.
Ergonomics:
almost all True Wireless headphones are equipped with control buttons.
They allow you to change the volume, change the audio/video range or make a call without having to use your smartphone.
The type of connection:
to communicate with each other, wireless headphones use Bluetooth.
The average range is about 10 meters.
Devices with Bluetooth 5.0 can enjoy a multipoint connection.
Some models are equipped with an NFC chip.
Focus on noise reduction headphones
Many headsets, rather high-end, now offer active noise reduction.
This function allows the surrounding noise to be suppressed so that the user can enjoy total immersion in the music.
This technology uses a microphone that analyzes ambient noise in order to attenuate it very effectively thanks to an inverted audio signal.
The result is more or less convincing depending on the manufacturers.
Therefore, we advise you to favor the big brands if you want to invest in this type of wireless headset.
During Black Friday, models like the Bose QuietComfort SE, the Sony WH-1000 XM5 or the Beats Studio 3 are offered at unbeatable prices.
In addition to providing exceptional listening comfort, the noise reduction system also avoids having to turn up the sound to an excessive volume,
