There are several types of wireless headphones currently available in the market, some more suitable for one purpose than the other. For instance, if you like listening to music or podcasts while exercising, you should get a wireless headphone with a dust- and water-resistant build to avoid damaging the headset with sweat. Therefore, you must pick one that fits your needs.
We understand that choosing a headset can be demanding, so we have developed this guide to help you know the factors to consider when buying wireless headphones.
We’ve also added a list of the top HP wireless headphones to get you started.

How to choose wireless headphones

How to choose wireless headphones
Regardless of the type of wireless headphones you choose, several options remain. So, do you pick one from the shelf that fits your budget, or do you close your eyes and hope your pick is good enough?
Well, let us dive in and explore what you should look for in wireless headphones.

Sound quality

Assessing the sound quality of a particular wireless headphone can be subjective as it depends on your personal preferences. However, we recommend that you check that your preferred option offers excellent sound quality. Also, you can consult online reviews left by other consumers.

Comfort and fit

Test the wireless headphones to ensure they are comfortable and fit you well. If you use them for long periods, ensure they have soft ear cushions and an adjustable headband.

Battery life

Different types of wireless headphones have varying standalone battery life. For instance, on- and over-ear headphones, on average, can last for 18 hours on a single charge, while true wireless earbuds, on average, can last 5 hours. Manufacturers often cite this information, so be sure to check. We also recommend that you check out reviews by other customers to confirm whether the information is accurate.

Noise cancellation

We recommend getting wireless headphones with active noise cancellation (ANC) technology if you work or live in a noisy environment. ANC headphones reduce background noise by using tiny microphones to cancel out external noise actively.

Microphone

If you are a freelancer or small business owner and are often on conference calls, we recommend getting a headset with a good-quality microphone. An ideal wireless headphone with a mic should produce sound with clarity, allow you to talk without straining your voice, and use ANC technology to cancel background noise.
Now let us look at the top HP wireless headphones.
