Truly wireless earbuds are all the rage right now, especially with people having to adjust to using video conferencing apps to communicate with family, friends and co-workers amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Thankfully, some companies are lowering the prices of some of the best wireless earbuds in the market, helping consumers get what they need and want for less than the usual cost. Here's a quick look at two of the best wireless earbuds that can be purchased for less: Sony's WF-XB700 and Apple's AirPods Pro.
Sony WF-XB700
Sony has lowered the WF-XB700's price from $129.99 to $99.99 – saying consumers $30. This pair of wireless earbuds boasts “powerful” and “punchy” sound thanks to 12mm drivers. It doesn't have noise cancellation like the more premium WF-1000XM3, but it also doesn't cost as much.
It does, however, offer “extra bass” for those who like more bass in their music. The earbuds are designed to deliver low frequencies in such a way that it doesn't make the music sound bad.
The WF-XB700 offers nine hours of battery life in the earbuds themselves, plus an additional nine hours from the charging case. That might not sound very long, but charging the earbuds for five minutes lets users enjoy their music and calls for an hour.
This nifty pair of Sony earbuds is IPX4 rated for sweat and water-resistance, which means users can wear it while running in the rain or logging miles in the treadmill at home or in an open gym (if any). Get it for only $99.99 from Sony.
Apple AirPods Pro
Who doesn't know Apple's premium noise-canceling earbuds, the AirPods Pro? This pair of wireless earbuds offer great audio, active noise cancellation, the convenience of “Hey Siri” and easy integration across Apple's devices, including the iPhone, iPad and MacBook.
The AirPods Pro boasts of Transparency mode, a feature that lets users hear outside noise while listening to music or taking calls. This feature allows users to converse with others or hear important announcements in various places without having to remove the earbuds from their ears.
The AirPods Pro also features an Adaptive EQ that customizes the sound depending on the user's ears. This will help users get the best listening experience they can get from an Apple headset.
Verizon is selling the AirPods Pro for only $219.99, letting buyers save $30 when compared to the original $249.99 selling price. Supplies are limited, however, which means those who really want to buy a pair need to grab them fast.
