For your ears only - bluetooth headphones to die for

January 14, 2016

I apologise for the poor attempt at a James Bond pun, I seem to have James Bond on the brain at the moment as I still haven’t seen Spectre. Shame on me. Anyway today we are looking into the best bluetooth headphones on the markets. With the rumour being that the next iPhone will have no headphone jack we need to get organised and find a decent bluetooth headphone ready for the iPhone 7 and its release in September. Here is our top 3 wishlist, one for every occasion;

Perfect for the gym - Beats Powerbeats2

These sweat resistant headphones mean that you can work your socks off without worrying about your headphones. They also have a tight fit which means they shouldn’t fly off when you are pounding that treadmill. They can also be customised to fit around your ear, perfect if like me you have freakishly small ears. They also have a built-in microphone so you can take calls without having to stop your workout. They come in white, black and red and are very cool looking.

Price - £127 from Amazon

Perfect for your commute - Bose SoundLink On-Ear

Compact and comfortable midsized headphone with great wireless sound. Good 15 hour battery life. This will see you through your morning and afternoon commute and while at work they can be folded away. They also use adaptive audio adjustment technology. This adjusts the sound level based on background noise.

Price - £220 from Amazon

Perfect for making a stylish statement - Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay H8

A great look with a sturdy design and active noise cancelling. But this comes at a cost. It has an aluminum body with sheepskin ear pad and up to 14 hours battery life when using bluetooth and noise cancelling.

Price - £399 from Amazon

All are perfect for listening to any James Bond theme tune but I hope the price of them hasn’t made you feel too ear’itable. What do you think of our list? I’m all ears….

      Aren’t they. My problem is I like the really expensive ones but justify that luxury..

    The idea that the new iPhone won’t have a headphone jack is just madness. It’s just another way to get us to spend more money on other gadgets we wouldn’t otherwise (probably) buy. Although, these do look great!! #ShareWithMe

      I agree total madness and all because they just want to make the iPhone even thinner!!! And an excuse to make us buy more, not that I need any excuse
