In a market that is becoming increasingly competitive, I was pleasantly surprised by the TrueConnect Wireless Earbuds by RHA. For those who, like me, are afraid of investing in earbuds for fear of misplacing one (or both!) of them, the TrueConnect earbuds come in a handy case that will fit in your pocket and keep your earbuds safe and protected. Sleekly designed, and with an aluminium covering, the case also acts as a charger, and boasts an outstanding 20-hour battery life.

If you’re on the lookout for a good quality pair of wireless headphones without breaking the bank, then the KS Immerse Headphones might be just the thing you’re searching for. True to their name, the Immerse strive to provide a totally absorptive experience for the listener, with Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) technology that counteracts the background din with opposing soundwaves; a notable achievement indeed, considering that most ANC headphones are considerably more expensive.  

It shows the evolution of audio technology when the box your earphones come in is also the charger. This was what first struck me about the Life P2 Total Wireless Earphones from Soundcore (Anker); that and the smart look to the whole package.

Easy to set up, easy to use and easy to store, these earphones are very comfortable; so comfortable in fact that it is easy to forget you are actually wearing them.

The GXBT180 is the baby brother to the BT280 but as is so often with the younger sibling, it is better looking, more fun and fits easier into a rucksack, measuring up at 86 x 86 x 110mm it is super compact and only weighs 340g, you can even put it in your pocket (jacket, not jeans). It comes in three colours, Red, Black and Blue just like its older sibling as well as that same, handy attachment loop for fixing it to your bag, bike, tent, whatever you like.

The GX-BT280 is from Sharpes portable speaker range and is available in three colours, Black, Red and Blue, this wireless speaker can be connected via Bluetooth 4.2 to your phone, tablet or any other Bluetooth device.

The Dual Driver BT ANC In-Ear Headphones are interesting looking headphones, with a solid but light weight neck band and the earbuds, attached by a wire set higher up the band, not at the ends meaning it fits all shapes and sizes without the risk of neck band tugging on the earbuds. The Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) aims to provide you clear sound in any environment allowing you to chill out during the noisy commute or drown out the daily chatter in the office with your favourite audio book.

The product of a collaboration between Adidas and Zound, the RPT-01s are the over the ear counterpart to the in-ear FWD-01s. The headphones are designed with working out in mind, and their sleek design, complete with the distinctive triple white Adidas lines, set them apart from the crowd. As well as the dark grey colour, the RPT-01s are also available in night grey and white. Although the material of the headphones feels and looks lightweight and bendy, it is surprisingly very durable.
