Over-ear, in-ear and true wireless: how we'll compare noise cancelling, battery life, fit and codec support.
No product in this guide has been tested yet. Specs, prices and ratings are marked "to verify" or "test pending" until we've done the work.
What we'll test
- Noise cancelling: measured attenuation with a sound level meter
- Battery: playback time at a fixed volume vs the maker's claim
- Call quality: recorded samples in a noisy room
- Fit, comfort over a 2-hour session, and controls
- Codecs and multipoint: checked against the maker's spec sheet
