True wireless earbuds have come a long way since they first debuted seven years ago. Here, we’ll be reviewing some of the very best wireless earbuds of 2022 and what makes them so great!
Our Top Pick – Sony WF-1000XM4
Excellent sound quality? Check.
Voice assistant integration? Yes.
Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)? It’s got that too!
The connectivity is pretty solid too as it comes equipped with the latest Bluetooth 5.2 tech. It even offers you 24 hours of battery life with the case, meaning you won’t have to shut the music off at some point during use.
Also, whenever you do have to charge it, you get the choice of using either its USB Type C port or its wireless charging!
In many ways, these amazing wireless buds are a shining testament to just how far true wireless earbuds have come!
If we must point out one flaw these babies have, it’s that they cost a pretty penny. But considering the wealth of features they put at your disposal, it’ll be money well spent indeed.
Runner Up – Jabra Elite 7 Pro
To be fair, it was a close tie between the Jabra Elite 7 Pro and the Sony WF-1000XM4 for us.
We only ended up giving the top spot to Sony’s earbuds because its ANC and wireless charging option just can’t be beaten!
Beyond that, the Jabra Elite 7 Pro is in a class of its own as it comes with 30 hours of listening time (plus case), a solid waterproof rating, and arguably the best call quality on the market, thanks to its strategically positioned dual microphones.
If you want most of what the Sony WF-1000XM4 offers at a much lower price, then you’ll certainly be pleased with these Bluetooth earbuds.
Alternative – Beats Studio Buds
The fact that these buds are Apple products should give a clear hint as to the high level of quality you can expect from them.
What earned these beauties a spot on our list is the way they manage to incorporate much of the exclusivity and functionality unique to Airpods. Thanks to this, they can connect effortlessly with both iOS and Android devices without a drop in audio quality or performance!
With an impressive 24-hour battery life, ANC, and Mono Listening, you’ll get a good bang for your buck here for sure! However, they’re only water-resistant, not waterproof, and don’t offer wireless charging either.
Bottom Line
Picking the perfect earbuds for you can be a challenge. If you’re out for the very best earbuds of 2022 and you have the cash to spare, the Sony WF-1000XM4 has all you could want!
But if you don’t want to spend as much and still want top-quality, the Jabra Elite 7 Pro isn’t a bad pick either. The Beats Studio Buds are our most affordable wireless earbuds and they hold their own quite well too.
