Vote:- if "Once I put my headphones my life becomes music video"
Read previous reviews (click here).
Walk the streets of any town or city and you will see myriad people locked in to their own world, listening intently to headphones plugged in to smartphone, tablet or even - surely not - an MP3 player. The digital audio revolution has happened, and I can't be the only person who travels to work in a train carriage silent to the outside world as my fellow travellers concentrate on music, podcasts, audiobooks and video to make the commute more fun (endurable).
Headphones are more than just a functional device. Like the display on your PC they are the crucial part in the link between you and your favorite portable device. As such it is worth investing in a good set of headphones. Moreover not all headphones are made equal: you can spend a lot of money on something that looks - rather than sounds - good. And for some people that is the key thing.
The types of headphones on offer are fairly self-explanatory but in-ears are small earbuds which you put into your ear canal, on-ear headphones have a headband but the cup sits on your ear while over-ear have larger cups so encompass your ear. Most headphones are wired but you can also get ones with Bluetooth to get a wire-free experience.
Best headphones for value, best headphones for audio, best headphones for exercise, best Bluetooth wireless headphones, and so on. I've got a wide range of headphones covering a broad set of prices so we hope you find something that fits your needs.
7. Sennheiser Urbanite XL Wireless
If you can afford the price, the Sennheiser Urbanite XL Wireless headphones provide great sound over Bluetooth, offering punchy bass without going over the top. There are handy features such as NFC, a smart touchpad for controls, and a microphone for calls. Some might find the build is a little on the plastic side, and these headphones are pretty bulky – but that's the street style that Sennheiser is aiming for.

6. Griffin WoodTones Over-the-Ear headphones
The WoodTones aren’t exactly cheap, but the quality construction, excellent sound, and elegant design make them well worth the investment. The ability to manipulate your device via the inline controller is a very useful one, and the wood finish elevates the WoodTones above the sea of plastic that is usually on offer.
5. Beats by Dre Studio
The Beats Studio is two things; firstly they are powerful headphones that are great for hip-hop or electronic music, secondly they are a desirable fashion accessory/statement. If that’s what you’re after then these are great - if you’re looking for a more rounded audio performance then you might be better off looking elsewhere, especially for the price.Amazing offer on Amazon (Buy now)
4. MeElectronics Atlas Orion
Good to look at, nicely put together and comfortable to use. With only a
couple of minor caveats we are impressed with the MeElectronics Atlas Orion.
Audio quality is good but not great. But at this price that makes the
MeElectronics Atlas Orion a headset worth purchasing.
3. Sony MDR-HW700DS 9.1 wireless headphones
Although expensive, we rate the Sony MDR-HW700DS wireless surround headphones as a compelling alternative to a physical multichannel speaker setup, and they're a great practical solution when it's just not possible to crank things up.
2. Rock Jaw Kommand
The Kommand IEM is a step up from the Alpha Genus and any other sub-£50
headphones, but you'd expect that at more than twice that price. There's lots
to like about their sound quality, but some might find the ear hooks
uncomfortable.
1. Sony MDR-1RBT
Sony’s MDR-1RBT headphones sound equally good whether you’re listening wired or wirelessly. Hooking up with Bluetooth does give a bit of a bump to bass and treble, too, as well as the convenience of no cords. The convenience of NFC - if you’ve got a compatible mobile - is even better.
