The 5 Best Wireless Earbuds For iPhone - Spring 2021 Reviews

The best wireless earbuds for iPhone that we've tested are the Apple AirPods Pro. They have a very versatile overall performance, and their H1 chip makes it easy to pair them and maintain a good connection with Apple devices. These well-built in-ears have a comfortable and stable fit, and they come with a couple of different sizes of earbud tips to help you get the best possible fit.

They have a pretty neutral, balanced sound profile that makes them suitable for listening to lots of different types of audio content. Thanks to their ANC feature, they have excellent noise isolation, so you can enjoy your music free of distractions even if you're in a noisy office or on public transport. They don't leak a lot of noise, either, and escaping audio sounds quite thin, so you can crank up the volume on your favorite tunes without really bothering those around you.

Unfortunately, their integrated microphone has a disappointing recording quality, so they're just an okay choice for making phone calls. Also, they only last for a little over five hours off of a single charge, which may not be enough to last through your 9-5 workday. However, their portable charging case offers around five extra charges, which makes it easy to power up when you're on-the-go.

The best wireless sports earbuds for iPhone that we've tested are the Beats Powerbeats Pro. These in-ears feature a sturdy, lightweight plastic construction and a very stable fit, courtesy of their ear-hook design, which should keep them in place even during intense workout sessions. Their control scheme is also easy to use, so you shouldn't lose your rhythm if you want to adjust while you're out on a run.

They have a well-balanced sound profile that should suit whatever kind of content you listen to as you work out, whether that's EDM music or an audiobook. They also feature Apple's H1 chip, which allows them to pair quickly and seamlessly with iOS devices. While they don't block out that much ambient noise, that may be helpful if you're running outdoors and want to stay aware of your surroundings. Their continuous battery life of more than 11 hours is great and should last you marathon distances without issue.

Unfortunately, their iOS interface doesn't offer nearly as many customization options as a dedicated companion app, with no audio presets or an EQ to fine-tune your listening experience. Their IPX4 rating is also on the low end for sports headphones and is somewhat disappointing at this price point, though it should be mentioned that we don't test that feature. Still, thanks to their stable, comfortable fit, and versatile sound profile, they're among the best wireless earbuds for running and working out that we've tested.

The best wireless earbuds for iPhone are the Beats Flex Wireless. These lightweight in-ears have a comfortable, stable fit and are available in a few different bright colors. They're equipped with a W1 chip for easy pairing with Apple devices, and have low latency with iOS, so you can use them to watch videos or play games on your iPhone.

They have a bass-heavy sound profile that brings a bit of extra thump and rumble to your music, making them especially suitable for fans of genres like EDM and hip-hop. While they don't have an ANC feature, they do a decent job of passively blocking ambient noise like background chatter. They feel well-built enough to withstand some minor drops and bumps without much damage, and while their total battery life of 11 hours is just okay, they recharge in less than an hour and a half, which is quick.

Unfortunately, their companion app doesn't offer any way to customize their sound, like with an EQ or presets. Also, they aren't very good at blocking out bass-range noise like a rumbling bus or plane engine. That said, if you're looking for a pair of straightforward in-ears and like a bass-rich sound, they're a solid option.
