Top 5 Wireless on Ear Headphones

Without wires to connect, wireless on ear headphones typically lighter and more portable than over-ears. They usually have an extended battery life and are packed in a carry case to ensure safe storage.

The Jabra Elite45h are earphones with a lot of features at a great price. They feature Bluetooth 5 connectivity, as well as some physical buttons. They also support aptX Hi-Res audio streams. The default sound profile is heavy on bass but this can be adjusted within the app by using an EQ graphic.

Focal Bathys Wireless

Focal is a name synonymous with high-end audio, and the Bathys Wireless are no exception. These are a pair of over-ear headphones that feature active noise cancellation and high-quality audio.

They're powered by a 40mm aluminium-magnesium 'M'-shaped domed driver that's made in France. Focal have perfected it for use in portable settings and the result is a headphone which has an incredible sound. It's an extremely dynamic set of headphones I've tested. They are able to reveal every aspect with a deep and full sound.

The Bathys sound solid and are built well. They have a sturdy headband, as well as the ear cups can be worn comfortably over the ears. The Bathys are also light and include USB-C cables for wired listening.

The Bathys features an easy-to-use and intuitive control system. A cluster of buttons is located on the right side of the cup and let you control your virtual assistant, Bluetooth pairing and the music source you're listening. A single click on the ANC toggle button will switch between different modes that range from standard SBC to the more advanced aptX and Adaptive codecs.

If you're connecting via the USB cable it is possible to connect your device in DAC mode and play music at up to 24bit/192kHz. This doesn't require any additional hardware or software to enable and the headphones automatically do the job.

One oddity of the headphones is the LED that flashes white when they are turned on. It's a cool visual touch but I'm not sure it's needed. Fortunately the lights don't use up any power and don't affect the battery's life in any way. You can turn them off using the Focal and Naim app, which allows you to manage EQ and voice assistants, as well as various other options. The app is simple to use and fairly light however I did experience some teething problems with the program. You can select from various futuristic-sounding beeps as well as boops to indicate mode or button presses.

Skullcandy Uproar

Skull Candy is making waves within the budget headphone space with their latest Uproar Wireless headphones. They're a comfortable pair of Bluetooth on-ear headphones with a long-lasting battery and stylish designs for less than PS40.

The headphones feature a light design that makes them extremely comfortable to wear. The headphones are primarily made of plastic, making them lightweight and flexible but also fragile. I wouldn't want to drop them off my head and the ear pads only partially cover your ears so they're not as noise isolating as you might think of for this type of headphone.

It is easy to pair your phone with headphones. First, ensure that the monolith headphones are on and that the LED indicator is blinking rapidly. Go to the Bluetooth settings on your mobile device, then connect the headphones. Once they're connected, they will automatically reconnect to your device whenever it's within range.

One thing I really like about these headphones is how well they sound. The bass is excellent and you can clearly discern the finer details of your music. The highs sound crisp and clear. They sound better than the other headphones I've tried and are worth the money.

Another great feature is that they can be recharged and come with a USB cable. They can be charged when you're on the go. They also come with an audio input that you can use to play your music on your phone even when headphones aren't attached.

They also come with a built in microphone that allows you to make calls. This is great if you're on the go and don't have an extra cord. Additionally, they have an average battery life of 10 hours, which is good.

Audio-Technica ATH-M60x

The ATH-M60x is the most recent version of Audio-Technica's renowned M series headphones, and its closed on-ear design makes it ideal for broadcasting, studio and mobile use. With the same 45mm large-aperture drivers as the M50xs, these headphones offer great sound quality, working across a broad frequency range with crystal clear clarity and deep bass response.

The M60x frame is made from both metal and plastic with a tough finish. Its low-profile 'on-ear' design is very comfortable, with the headband and ear pads made of protein leather, which is less likely to cause sweating. The headband is a bit narrower than the other M headphones, which helps to make them feel lighter and more breathable on your head, while also making them more suitable for use with glasses.

The cable that is removable comes in three lengths which are short, long and coiled. They also come with a bag to keep them in during times when not in use. The cable connection is secured by the bayonet lock mechanism. This is a wonderful feature that allows the headphones to remain securely connected to any device. The M60xs can be used with most devices because of their low impedance.

When compared to over-ear headphones like the Bowers & Wilkins P5 Series 2 M60xs are superior to the P5 Series 2. M60xs are more balanced in their sound profile that doesn't emphasize certain frequencies. The M60xs cost a little less than the Bowers & Wilkins. This makes them an excellent choice for those who are on a budget.

The M60xs are a departure from the classic M series design, but they look great. The sleek black frame is complemented with a minimalistic logo on the band. The M60xs don't fold and are a bit bulky to carry. However, they're still a great option for professional audio. Noise isolation is not up to par, as they let in the rumble from airplanes and buses. However, this can be masked by loud music, and they're very effective in blocking out the sounds of location for podcasts and videos.
