Move over wired earphones! It’s the time for the best wireless earbuds to shine. Today, most people prefer to go wireless over wired with their gadgets. And, earphones are not an exception. In fact, people used to search desperately for wireless earbuds back in the day and would fail miserably.
Why was that? Well, mostly they would lack the manufacturing quality, connectivity and sound quality itself.
The times have changed now. Apple’s AirPods have dominated the market for the best wireless earphones for the past few years. But, the trend didn’t start with Apple.
However, popularity did.

Looks-wise, it is not the most elegant looking earbud out there. But, don’t go on its look. This wireless earphone comes with Bluetooth v5.0 and a response frequency between 20Hz and 18.5kHz.

It has a good looking, stylish body with a metallic finish. The company claims that the bass is amazingly loud and clear.

Redmi AirDots
Not to be mistaken with Mi AirDots, these earbuds consist of plastic with a matte-like finish at the top. The Redmi AirDots share a similar look to Samsung Galaxy buds. Obviously, they come with TWS (true wireless stereo) technology. The physical controls on the individual earbuds might be a turn down (compared to Mi AirDot’s touch controls). However, you can get a truly wireless experience. The compact carrying case adds to its elegancy and ease of portability.
Furthermore, AirDots offer rich and clear audio at a cheaper price than other wireless earphones out there. Although, it does compromise on the bass but don’t worry! It is a pretty decent one at its price.
These wireless earbuds hit the Nepali market with a price tag of Rs. 4,799 (not the current price). Also, let’s not forget its 6-month warranty which makes it definitely something to look into.

Sony WF-1000XM3 Wireless Earbuds
Next on our list is the beast Sony WF-1000XM3. From the early days, Sony has been at the top as the sellers of the best audio products. This one is no exception either. In fact, it’s far better than anything Sony has done with its audio equipment. The WF-1000XM3 features a new tri-hold structure with an elegant touch panel.
Yes, the touch controls work well and it has a good build quality with Bluetooth 5.0. Also, they fit pretty well and are grippy enough. The battery life doesn’t disappoint either. But wait till you hear about its sound quality that seals the deal. The bass is hard-hitting and deep, yet very well controlled. Its noise cancellation along with an excellent call quality is cherry on the top.
However, there are mixed reactions regarding its big charging case and no-touch control for volume. Moreover, it has no IP rating. Overall, we think that its a complete package and definitely the one to check out.

- Driver: 24-inch, Dome type (CCAW Voice Coil)
- Processor: QN1e

Sony WF-1000XM3 Earbuds Price in Nepal: Rs. 34,500
Samsung Galaxy Buds+
The Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus looks similar to the original Galaxy Buds, except it has 11 hours of music playback (up from 6). If you prefer android over iOS, then you should definitely think about trying these amazing earbuds.
In fact, we think Galaxy Buds+ might just be the best wireless earbuds for android. Samsung has improved Galaxy Buds’ audio, ambient sound and battery life with this one. It supports both wireless charging and wireless power-sharing. In fact, you can get an hour of playback time with just 3 minutes of quick charging.
Quite impressive, right?
Moreover, the sound is pretty impressive with deep and well-defined bass. Reviews say that the sound is richer and more spacious than that of the original Galaxy buds. Let’s not forget the amazing partnership with Spotify that will definitely attract more audiences. It has a customizable touch & hold command or play recommended music from Spotify.
The sleek and comfortable design makes it an easy fit for the ears. Although it doesn’t come with ANC. But, not to worry! It’s silicone ear tips make up for it to provide passive noise isolation. And, these wireless earphones are water-resistant (IPX2 rating – a little lower than expected).
We believe there can be nothing better at its price than the Samsung Galaxy Buds+ on this list.

Apple AirPods Pro
Finally, we arrive at the mighty Apple AirPods Pro. Basically, Apple fixed everything wrong with the AirPods 2, making Pro the best in the list. Apple Pro got a better and subtler design which people seem to be loving, including us. People had plenty of shades to throw at the AirPods 2: the insecure fit (not so ideal for workout and running). And, how could we forget the design that made it look more like an earphone and not an earbud?
Anyway, that’s over and done with. Apple has joyously fixed every single issue with AirPods Pro. This leading earbud product has ANC and IPX4 water-resistance. However, even with a pretty good ANC, we are sorry to say that it can’t compete with that of Sony WF-XM3.
Although, it has nailed the comfort and fitting as it is very comfortable on the ears. Apple wasn’t lying when it claimed how AirPods Pro would adapt to the geometry of the listener’s ears.
All these bold features have made the AirPods Pro the top pick on our list. I mean, can there be any other picks for the best wireless earbuds for iPhone?
Pros: Balanced sound; design; good NC; workout-friendly
Cons: Cannot manually adjust NC; batteries can’t be replaced
