Other Wireless Headphones We’ve TestedWireless headphones are the default these days, and there are roughly 1 gazillion of them (and counting).
Sony WH-1000XM5 for $348: Sony's XM5 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) remain a top headphone, even after being supplanted by the fancier XM6.
For a fairly sizable price reduction, you'll get still-fabulous noise-canceling tech, great sound, and luxe comfort in a supremely portable package.
Now that they've come down, we can heartily recommend them to folks who are looking for a pair of wireless headphones that don't have noise canceling.
Technics EAH-AZ80 for $166: The AZ80 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) are great earbuds.
