Cheap Wireless In Ear Headphones at Argos and Currys

Wireless headphones bring about far less clutter and a lot more in the way of convenience. And with the advances in technology, and Apple's new iPhone 7 not having a headphone jack, they are now more popular than ever before. This is great for consumes as this brings down prices and fuels competition.

However it's not all great when you decide to dump the wires and go for a cheap wireless in ear headphones. They do have some drawbacks too. So without further ado, let's take a look at what is good, and what is bad in a pair of low priced in ear headphones.

Battery Life of In Ear Headphones Due to the fact that these headphones are wireless, wired headphones get their power from the headphone jack, battery life is a big issue among wireless headphone users. Wireless headphones power supply comes in the form of either a built-in rechargeable battery, or standard disposable batteries. Built in is always the better option, we feel.

If your headphones that require a wireless transmitter, the transmitter will often double up as a charging dock. This can be ideal and cuts down on more wires.

For Bluetooth headphones, you should look for battery life of around 8-12 hours. This will give you all day playback, and it's also where most of the wireless in ear headphones will fall in to. Remember, though, that battery life is related to volume. The louder your music, the shorter the battery will last. Battery life times that you see on the sellers website will usually show the battery life in the best conditions. So temp and sound volume do alter this a fair bit.

Charge time usually takes 2 - 3 hours on most cheap wireless in ear headphones.

Sound Quality One of the biggest drawbacks against bluetooth headphones used to be that they offered poor sound quality. This was because Bluetooth was not originally intended for streaming high-quality music. With the advances in bluetooth sound quality, this has now changed for the better.

This began with the introduction of the advanced audio distribution profile (A2DP) to enable streaming of high-quality stereo audio.

Even though many people are quick to blame bluetooth for the poor quality of sound, it's important to remember that other things will also affect the sound quality too. Like the quality of the headphones themselves and the audio device being used.
