    The new AirPods 2 come after Apples great success with its first-gen true wireless offering.

    • The Powerbeats Pro take everything great about the AirPods and improve upon their shortcomings. The ear hooks and distinct nozzles provide a stable fit and better audio quality than the AirPods 2.

    The Creative Outlier Air earbuds have the best battery life of any true wireless earbuds, support AAC and aptX, and include USB-C charging.

    Reasons to buy the Creative Outlier Air:

    • For less than $80, the Outlier Air are the best value true wireless earbuds you can get.
    • They support both AAC and aptX for high-quality streaming regardless of what source device is used.
    • The IPX5 rating means they can withstand any workout save for swimming.
    • Battery life, while not as good as the Powerbeats, is impressive. You get 7.78 hours of playback on a single charge. Plus, the case charges via USB-C which is a rare feature at this price point.

    What you should know about iPhone earbuds

    • When it comes to iPhones, the only Bluetooth codec that matters is AAC. If the iPhone earbuds don't support AAC streaming, you'll experience some audio-visual lag and lesser audio quality.
    • Battery life matters, but only so much. According to our previous poll, a majority of you spend between one and two hours a day listening to music. Although true wireless battery life is relatively poor, they should have enough battery life to satisfy most listeners.
    • A proper fit greatly improves audio quality. If your earbuds are falling out because the ear tips are too small, audio quality will suffer dramatically.
    • Some of these models received an IP certification. This means that they've undergone rigorous testing to ensure some degree of water-resistance. This is a must-have if you plan to exercise with them.
    • Although the H1 chip maintains a stable connection between compatible devices, true wireless connectivity is still shaky. Unless you get the AirPods or Powerbeats Pro, you'll probably experience connection stutters. It's annoying but par for the course.
