Ignoring the high quality sound elements, there is a fact that headphones with dangling straps, both easy to break, and inconveniently outdated.Currently, wireless technologies are the trend of human development, and wireless audio is the same.After a long time of criticism and limitations of technology, the ability to transmit wireless audio on our mobile devices is better than ever.The compression formats for Bluetooth 5.0 also become more reliable, the leading smartphones are released without headphone jacks and it is important that users have begun to see the benefits, too. rather, the convenience that wireless audio streaming technology offers.True wireless headphones simply take the wireless audio transmission technology to a new level.

True wireless headphones are earbuds (earbud, inear) without a cable between the left and right parts, which means there are absolutely no wires on these headsets.There is no longer a situation where you have to sit 'half an hour' to remove the heap of blind tangled headphones, or the underground wiring, and the usability will be much more flexible, which is the benefit. The biggest benefit that true wireless headphones bring.

For those new to the headset world, these terms can be confusing.As mentioned above, true wireless - completely wireless headphones, are headphones that do not use a single centimeter of conductors that only 2 housing is attached directly to the ear, and these will be products. that you will see in the lower part of this article.Not only does it allow us to listen to music while not near the source, true wireless headphones also give us true freedom literally.

And wireless headsets have been around for a while and are no stranger to us.Wireless headphones still basically use Bluetooth technology as the standard for transmitting wireless audio signals.Although it is battery-powered and does not require physical connection to the sound source, there is a connecting cord between the two housing earphones, and sometimes there is also a plastic strip around the neck ( neckband) to keep fixed for the device.Wireless headphones are only more beneficial than traditional wired headsets in that they allow you to listen to music even though it is a few meters away from the source, and the wiring-related problems as mentioned above will still exist.

For now, come up with the list of the best true wireless headphones on our market today, noting that this is not a ranking, so there will be no rating by rank.

Apple AirPods - price of 3.6 million

Picture 4 of The best true wireless headphones on the market - when convenience comes to the throne

Certainly, it is impossible not to mention the person who created the trend and also the market leader: Apple AirPods

Basic technical parameter:

Style housing: Open-back |Weight: 4g (38g comes with case) |Driver type: Dynamic |Built-in battery life on housing: 5 hours |Built-in battery life on the charger box: 20 hours |Wireless connection range: 10m |NFC: No

Advantages:

  1. The feeling of wearing is very comfortable and compact
  2. Battery life is relatively good
  3. Quick, easy and smart pairing (especially with devices in the iOS ecosystem)

Defect:

  1. Designed for comfort in wearing but not beautiful
  2. Sound quality is not as good as competitors in the same segment

Apart from branding, it is not difficult to point out why the AirPods are so popularly used.They work smoothly, connect smartly with iOS devices, sound quality is acceptable, battery life is great and it is important to feel comfortable wearing, 'wearing like not wearing'.The features that Apple equips with AirPods are related to automation.And it is intelligence that makes AirPods completely different from the current Bluetooth headset world.On AirPods, there are 2 proximity sensors and based on it, there will be different reactions as follows:

  1. Wearing two ears: remove the ears, it turns off automatically, wearing the ears back automatically (with a light tone)
  2. Wearing two ears + opening music: removing the ears will automatically turn off the music.(no more listening)
  3. Wearing two ears + opening music: removing one ear to music will turn off.Wearing it again the music will open again.(temporarily remove to talk to someone or to hear another)
  4. Wearing two ears + conversation: removing one ear, the conversation continues.
  5. Wearing two ears + Facetime: remove the two ears automatically switch to the external speaker.

In addition, you can also touch the ears twice (you can select the left, right or to automatically touch any side) to turn on / off the music, answer / interrupt the phone.Or choose to press two to activate Siri.Do not increase the volume on the ear.

However, a minus point is that when not connected to the iOS ecosystem, almost all of the most quintessential things on the AirPods will disappear.This is the strategy for Apple to keep users from staying with their ecosystems.If you don't like iOS, or simply aren't using iOS, there are plenty of other good options you should consider.

This is the first time RHA has designed a pair of true wireless headphones, and it seems that the manufacturer chose Apple AirPods as a prototype to develop their ideas.RHA TrueConnect has a curvaceous wear, along with a rolling section that extends down to the earlobe.This rolling section will be the place to store the recording mic, and according to the company, this way will greatly improve the conversation quality.The outer case of the headset is primarily made of soft rubber, giving it a comfortable and durable wearing feel.However, it will be a real problem for people who are sweating, so if you intend to own RHA TrueConnect, you should 'prepare yourself' to clean it regularly to ensure hygiene.

As the first product to pave the way, True Connect still shows the strength of a pair of headphones designed by a large sound company, when it has a long battery life, IPX5 water resistance, latency is almost zero and Powerful sound quality with booming bass.

One point I am not very satisfied on RHA TrueConnect is the 4,200,000 price that the manufacturer offers.While this price is not too high in the true wireless world but this is the first RHA product, the long-term quality of this device is still a big question mark.However, if you are an economist, want to experience a new product from a well-known brand, RHA TrueConnect is absolutely an appropriate name.

  3. Bluetooth 5.0 combined with aptX
  4. Famous brand

Defect:

  1. Volume control is not good
  2. The feeling of wearing is not too comfortable, it needs to be improved

Sennheiser is a real 'bugaboo' in the audio world, in addition to sound quality, this manufacturer is also highly appreciated in that it is always hard to change, invest in new technologies, not too conservative. as well as other famous names in audiophile circles, and Momentum True Wireless is the first "shot" in the campaign to capture Sennheiser's potential true Wireless headset market.

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless has a beautiful, luxurious design, displaying the 'quality' of Sennheiser.Quality finishing is also very high level.However, one thing I am not satisfied with is that when worn for a long time, the comfort level will gradually decrease because the housing part is quite heavy and the buds are relatively much out, perhaps in the next version, Sennheiser should optimize one more. A bit of product housing design becomes more complete.

In terms of sound quality, it can be said that Sennheiser Momentum is definitely the best wireless headphones to sing at the present time.This is a true wireless headset for wide soundstage and the best class separation ability on the market.The space is expanded both horizontally and in depth, especially the ability to reproduce the model of the stage space very well, rather than the in-ear in the same price range of the manufacturer itself.In addition, Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless also gives very good details, dark tones but the bands are generally separated quite clearly and have high musicality.

For smart control features, you can perform a variety of touch-based gesture controls right on the housing without having to use the phone.In addition, Sennheiser also provides users with Smart Control application to control headphones.

In summary, apart from small minus points such as uncomfortable wear or low volume control, selling price is the biggest factor preventing Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless from reaching consumers.Anyway, the number of more than 8 million - twice an Airpods is not small, and you will have to carefully consider your needs.

Sony WF-1000X - price of 4 million VND

Picture 10 of The best true wireless headphones on the market - when convenience comes to the throne

Advantages:

  1. Luxurious design
  2. Good noise resistance
  3. Sound quality is very good
  4. Famous brand

Defect:

  1. Quite heavy
  2. Can't adjust the volume on the ear

Referring to audio products without Sony's presence, this is a shortcoming, especially when it is one of the leading manufacturers in the combination of modern technology and sound. High Quality.The WF-1000X is an important product of the Japanese manufacturer, it was born with the mission of preventing the expansion of Airpods, and becoming the king of the true wireless world.There are three elements on this product: beautiful design, great sound quality and smart 'features'.

In terms of design, the Sony WF-1000X is Sony's first pair of wireless headphones, but it did a great job of designing and finishing this product.The housing shell is made entirely of metal, while it is slightly faded, giving a luxurious feel as well as avoiding dirt, fingerprints, but the downside is that this headset becomes a bit heavy. little.In general, with the WF-1000X, users will get back the perfection worthyof the money they spend.

In terms of sound, this pair of headphones has a relatively harmonious sound quality, which needs to be equal in the strips, but not 'huff' like the products of extrabass line, which made Sony's name.But unlike the lagoon and nothing special like the Sennheiser Momentum series, the WF-1000x still has its own personality.
The most outstanding feature on the WF-1000x is still noise resistance.Each ear will have a button, a button to receive the call and the other to activate the noise protection features.If you don't have Sony's Headphones Connect application installed, the WF-1000X by default will have three basic noise protection features: on / off NC and Ambient Sound.

In short, the WF-1000x is the first product of the true wireless line that Sony has released, so it is inevitable that there will be minor errors.But in addition to the hardware disadvantages, software bugs will gradually be overcome by the system updates.If you like a headset with a beautiful design, harmonious sound quality, smart and from a famous brand, the Sony WF-1000X is the product for you.

These are true wireless headphones that are worth experiencing at the present time. What do you think about these headphones? Or do you need to add any other names? Leave comments in the comment section below. Wishing you a suitable product!
