If you aren’t a fan of earbuds in the first place, it’s likely because you’ve chosen ones that don’t sit comfortably on your ears. There are 2 main types of earbuds around; here’s how to choose the best pair of wireless earbuds:
Pros: As they sit directly into the ears, in-ear earbuds are much better at effectively sealing off any external noise and providing clearer and crisp sound quality.
Pros: Safer to use in outdoor environments.

The SHOKZ OpenFit Open-Ear headphones, however, are their first set of wireless earbuds without using bone conduction. This model provides a portable alternative for those who prefer their earpieces to be more compact and easy to pack.
It employs DirectPitch technology to deliver sound directly to the ear canal while minimising sound leakage and avoiding any pressure on the ears, which helps prevent ear fatigue. They weigh about 8.3g per piece, making them one of the best lightweight wireless earbuds available. Their ear hooks are also designed to be ultra-thin for a secure fit that’s comfortable to wear even when you have glasses on.
Price: $215
Battery life: Up to 28 hours with the charging case
Water resistance: IP54
