X5 come equipped with three sets of different-sized silicone ear tips as well as anti-fall ear fins that conform to the shape of your ear. I did get some ear fatigue with the X3s, mostly because I've been wearing them all day every day since I got them. That doesn't mean wireless earbuds can't sound impressive—they certainly can with lossless protocols like aptX and LDAC. Instruments are crisp, treble and bass both get to shine in their own way, and the mid-range is warm and full.

Treblab xFit review: A budget Airpods rival that isn’t

Some people may prefer bass-heavy tunes, whereas others might prefer a more lively v-shaped experience.They cut out external chatter with ease which leaves you free to enjoy their comfy fit and excellent sound quality. It also bears to mention that I was surprised by how well the built-in microphones worked in these earbuds. This is a complete package when you add all that to the dead-simple pairing to an iPhone that Apple enables. It’s all well and good knowing how sound frequencies work, but when it comes to headphones, how important are they?

Trebl Premium in-ear Wireless Earbuds in Charging Case

Think of Sony's WF-C500 wireless earbuds as a no-frills version of the WF-1000XM5 found further up this page. For example many of them do not have AptX support, but it is only listed as "Reasons to Avoid " in only some of them.The Bluetooth 4 family allows for about 10 meters or 33 feet of coverage in most environments, though that range can extend through the line of sight when outdoors. The Jabra Elite 85 t's also brings up to 30 hours of battery life when you include the charging case. But for genuinely bass-heavy performance, go for earbuds that sport slightly larger drivers when possible.
