Not many years ago, truly wireless earbuds were a rarity. Thankfully, things have changed, and now they have caught up with the current trend. There are countless pairs of earphones out there. However, the number of wireless earbuds with long battery life is still a rarity, owing to their small and compact design.
Nevertheless, we have managed to round up a small list of quality wireless earbuds with long battery life. Apart from the battery life, these buds rank well on audio performance and comfort.
So without further ado, let’s get started. Shall we? But before that,
- Here are the best wireÂless earÂbuds for runÂning
- Add life to your parties with these BlueÂtooth speakÂers with LED lighting
1. Sony WF-C500 Truly Wireless Headphones
Like most Sony wireless earphones, these are easy to position. Moreover, they adjust well to most common ear shapes. It’s worth noting that they come with physical buttons, and you can use the Sony Headphones app to customize the earbuds as per your preference.
These buds deliver neutral audio, which means it’s a little lacking on the bass side. That said, there are quite a few modes to choose from, and you can also use the apps’ EQ to tailor the music as per your taste.
The WF-C500 earphones are popular on Amazon and have seen more than 2,000 reviews. Users love it for its money-to-value proposition, battery life, and the comfort it brings to the table.
2. OnePlus Buds Z2Â Wireless Earbud
Of course, your results will vary depending on your volume levels. The good part is that the charging case can bundle a hefty amount of charge. For now, you will get around 22 hours with ANC and 31 hours without ANC. Cool, right? So even if you have the habit of charging it every few days, you will get a consistently charged device on your hands.
At the same time, Android users get the advantage of Google Fast Pair. These earphones are tailored more for OnePlus users and include app support.
Surprisingly, the Z2 delivers a capable ANC for the price. It seals your ears against everyday noise like hums of trains, AC fans, and murmurs. However, it can’t hold up to high-pitched sounds and produce a hiss if you crank up the ANC.
Unlike the ones above, the OnePlus Z2 delivers bass-heavy audio. If you love bass-heavy music, you will love these buds.
The design is small, and the linear shape of the charging case makes them easy to carry. If you are a OnePlus user and want a bass-heavy sound, you should consider the OnePluz Z2.
3. Cambridge Audio Melomania 1+ Earbuds
The Melomania 1+ comes with a Low Power Mode, and it is that that helps to stretch the battery life to 45 hours. Nevertheless, even if you switch it off, you can get around 36 hours, which depends on the volume levels.
Another highlight of these wireless earbuds with long battery life is the app support. You can tweak the EQ as per your taste.
When it comes to sound quality, the Melomania 1+ delivers excellent sound with dynamic audio. The vocals appear clear and sharp. And for the price, the stellar audio is a huge plus.
Cambridge Audio’s newest wireless audio checks multiple boxes. The audio is excellent, and it carries a slew of features such as aptX & AAC support, app support, easy controls, and compact buds. More importantly, they are not expensive as some of their counterparts from Sony and Bose. The only niggle is that it doesn’t have ANC. But at the end of the day, nothing is perfect, right?
If you want to save money and yet want one of the best audio experience, the Melomania 1+ will be an excellent buy.
4. Jabra Elite 85t True Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds
As we noted earlier, the Elite 85t delivers dynamic sound, and it’s a delight to listen to songs on these wireless buds. The bass is prominent that paves the way for a good listening experience if you are a bass head. At the same time, the app lets you tweak the ANC, Sound Transparency, and EQ. For the record, the Jabra app lets you switch between levels of ANC.
When it comes to ANC earphones, the battery life is a tad on the shorter end, and it’s no different for these Jabra earbuds. They last around 5 hours with ANC, and the carry case can deliver three additional charges. So while you may not get to listen to your favorite songs at a stretch, the carry case makes sure that the buds do not run out of charge soon.
The only limitation is the master-slave configuration. Here the right bud is the master, whereas the left bud is the slave. This config limits the possibility of using only bud at a time. While you can easily use the right bud independently, you won’t be able to do the same for the left bud.
On the upside, the charging case supports wireless charging.
5. Sony WF-1000XM4 Truly Wireless Earbud
The compact earbuds are made of polyurethane which not only ensures a better fit. The battery life is definitely better compared to the ones above. On a single charge, you can expect around 8 hours with ANC active. The charging case can provide up to 16 hours. So you get a cumulative battery life of 24 hours.
As noted above, the ANC is top-notch and manages to seal a good amount of noise, whether it’s the sounds of rattling train carriages or the high-pitched voices of kids playing.
The audio delivery is impressive for the price. The audio is rich, warm, and detailed, all thanks to the V1 processor and Sony’s proprietary DSEE Extreme audio tech. Interestingly, these buds also support 360 Reality Audio in streaming apps like Tidal and Deezer.
Charge!
These were some of the best wireless earbuds with long battery life. If you forget to charge often, the mantra is to choose one with long cumulative battery life like the Cambridge Audio buds. However, if you like to listen for long stretches, it is better to pick one that offers a long battery life at a single stretch.
