A number of companies at CES 2022 debuted new headphones, one of the most popular categories at the consumer electronics trade show. While there was nothing new from Sony or Sennheiser, plenty of other companies announced new wireless …

Like the iPhone 13 lineup, Apple’s iPhone 12 models don’t include earbuds or any headphones, which would come as a surprise for you if you are coming from iPhone 11 or older. If you aren’t sure how to find the best headphones for your iPhone 12, you’ve come to the right place. We recommend choosing wireless headphones since the iPhone 12 doesn’t have …

If you care about climate change, you may choose to consider products made of recycled or biodegradable materials whenever possible.

Games are large these days, and they’re only getting larger. That makes expandable storage a necessity if you want to store a decent chunk of your library at any one time. Managing that storage space can be a huge pain in the butt, so the more storage you have the less you’ll need to do that. The PS5 and Xbox Series X can’t run …

More than two years after their release, Apple’s AirPods Pro are still the best true-wireless earbuds out there. They’re small, lightweight and fit snugly, in addition to their impressive features and audio quality. However, you do have to loosen the purse strings a bit when buying them.

But I thought it was worth surfacing again for those who might have missed it. The buds still aren’t available on Amazon, but Earfun is selling them through its website and you can pick them up …

The $200 (£179, AU$299) Pixel Buds Pro are Google’s first earbuds to feature active noise canceling. While it’s nice that they finally have a feature that a lot of true-wireless earbuds have had for a while, what ultimately sets the Pixel Buds Pro apart and makes them strongly worth considering — particularly for Android users — is their distinct design and winning …

V-Moda’s new S-80 on-ear headphones have not being getting good reviews — and it’s pretty easy to see why.  First, they’re an on-ear headphone, which are a dying breed as consumers who eschew earbuds gravitate toward over-ear models if they’re going the full-size headphone route. Secondly, they’re expensive at $400. And at 355g — just 31 grams lighter than Apple’s …
