The 5 Best Wireless Earbuds For iPhone - Summer 2020
Reviews

The best wireless earbuds for iPhone that we've tested so far are the Apple AirPods Pro. These sleek and well-built headphones are the next generation of the Apple AirPods 2 Truly Wireless 2019. Their improved design makes them more versatile overall, and thanks to their H1 chip, they can also pair seamlessly with your Apple ecosystem.

Although they lack a bit of thump and rumble, they still have a very well-balanced and neutral sound profile, making them best suited for a variety of different audio genres. They also have an excellently performing active noise cancelling feature, which is great for those who commute or work in an office. Their small carrying case also makes it easy to take these earbuds with you wherever you go. You can even charge the carrying case with a wireless Qi charging pad, which is a nice touch.

On the downside, their five-hour battery life probably won't be enough to get you through your work day. Luckily, they take just over an hour to charge, and there are five additional charges handy in their carrying case, so the battery doesn't feel too limiting. These earbuds don't have a lot of customization features, other than button mapping in their companion app. Still, out-of-the-box, they deliver a solid overall performance with an iPhone.

The best wireless sports earbuds for iPhone that we've tested so far are the Beats Powerbeats Pro. These well-built in-ears are comfortable and breathable, so they won't make you sweat more than usual during physical activity. Thanks to their ear-hook design, they're also very stable in your ear, so they won't fall off your head or need to be repositioned in your ear during your workouts. Overall, these earbuds rank among the best wireless earbuds for running and working out that we've tested to date.

These earbuds have a good audio reproduction that makes them suitable for most music genres. They can also last for over 11 hours on a single charge, so you likely won't need to worry about recharging them during a long run or when you're just on the go. Thanks to their H1 chip, they can seamlessly pair with all your Apple devices.

Unfortunately, these headphones have poor noise isolation performance. They likely won't be able to block out the deep thump and rumble from engines, which may be disappointing if you want to use your earbuds during your commute. However, some users may appreciate that these earbuds allow them to stay aware of their surroundings, especially if they are running outdoors.

The best wireless earbuds for iPhone under $50 that we've tested to date are the Anker SoundBuds Curve Upgraded 2019. These in-ears are comfortable to wear for long periods, and their ear-hook design helps make them quite stable in your ear. With an outstanding 18-hour battery life, you also won't need to worry about recharging them frequently.

These are versatile in-ears with a sound profile that's well-balanced enough for most music genres. Their sound profile is fairly bass-heavy, which should please fans of bass-heavy genres like EDM and hip-hop. While they don't have an ANC feature, they still do an alright job passively isolating ambient noise typically found in an office setting.

Unfortunately, these headphones don't have a companion app, and you can't customize their sound. While the ear-hooks and earbuds feel sturdy and well-built, the cable connecting them is quite thin. Still, with their excellent price-to-performance ratio, these headphones rank among the best headphones we've tested so far.
