With the FreeBuds 3i, Huawei will be embarking upon the true wireless earbuds path for the first time without having to settle for an ugly-looking device that hangs out of your ear. It achieves this by using silicone plugs in order to better seal the ear canal against any outside, environmental noise. The ANC technology used is, theoretically, capable of delivering additional peace and quiet. Does this sound like a well-known concept to you? Yes, under the name Magic Earbuds, the Honor brand carries an almost identical model in its lineup, which are available at an even cheaper price point. Why then is this Huawei variant the better option? You will find out more in our review.
It’s annoying when during a really good endurance run your in-ear headphones suddenly slip out of your ear canal and fall to the ground. With many true wireless headphones, this can hardly be avoided, because they are not fixed solidly enough to your ears. The Powerbeats Pro are completely different, with a sturdy bridge and a rubber claw that clings to your ears. But if the price that Apple charges is too high for you, then you should consider the Soundcore Spirit X2 from Anker, which realizes this concept for less than half the cost.
Sennheiser returns to the true wireless market with its true wireless Momentum True Wireless 2 headphones. This pair is more or less the same recipe as the previous model but claims to provide longer battery life and active noise cancelation (ANC).

The Air 1 Plus are the fifth generation of true wireless earbuds from the Swedish audio brand, Happy Plugs. The interesting thing about these is that you can choose either an in-ear design or a classic earbud design.

The Anker Soundcore range has been expanding rapidly recently, and there are plenty of designs and styles to choose from today. I took a look at the Spirit Dot 2 true wireless earbuds to see how they stack up to the competition in what is quickly becoming a very crowded market.
Launched at one of the last physical tech events of the year, at what was supposed to be the Mobile World Congress, the Honor Magic Earbuds enter a busy market of true wireless earbuds with active noise cancellation. So how do the AirPod-style headphones stack up against the competition? I’ve been wearing them to find out.
Not least because of various YouTubers publishing rave reviews, fake AirPods enjoy great popularity. These so-called BlackPods Pro cost a fraction of the original Apple headphones, but how close to they come to the real thing? Let’s find out.
The smallest device with active noise suppression comes from Finland. The QuietOn Sleep are a combination of cuddly earplugs and noise-canceling headphones. We tested the €220 earbuds.
Your search for a rugged, waterproof Bluetooth speaker might have come to an end with the Teufel Boomster Go.
