Sennheiser has announced a new pair of headphones that support high-res audio through a wired or wireless connection, even if your smartphone doesn’t support the latest Bluetooth codecs. The HDB 630 looks similar to the redesigned Sennheiser Momentum 4 that launched in 2022 because both headphones are built on the same chassis, but Sennheiser’s latest […]
There’s a new pair of AirPods Pro on the scene, but Apple’s latest entry-level buds — the AirPods 4 — are still worth a look if you’re looking for something cheaper, especially now that they’re on sale for Prime Big Deal Days.

Nothing’s Ear 3 buds remind me more than anything else of the Ear 1, the company’s first product. Not because the design is similar (though it is) or because the sound is similar (it’s gotten a fair bit better, in fact). No, I’m reminded of the Ear 1 because both sets of earbuds share a […]
Sony is adding support for audio sharing and Google’s Gemini Live conversational AI assistant to its premium noise-canceling wireless headphones.

Developer Ali Tanis has released the first game for iPhones and iPads that’s played using Apple’s AirPods as a wearable motion controller. The RidePods – Race with Head gameplay is relatively basic – you’re just steering a motorcycle through oncoming traffic at high speeds – but instead of swiping the screen or tiling your phone, […]
CMF, the budget-focused sub-brand that Nothing plans to spin off into a standalone subsidiary, has launched its first pair of over-ear wireless headphones. The CMF Headphone Pro borrows features like a multi-function roller control from Nothing’s Headphone 1 that debuted in July, but while Nothing’s over-ears feature a polarizing boxy design, CMF’s go hard on […]
Despite the best efforts of companies like DJI to shrink wireless wearable mics and make them as unobtrusive as possible, a lot of content creators still prefer a mic they can hold. So as wired headphones continue to make a comeback, Plantronics has released a pair of USB-C earbuds called the Conch One with their […]
Samsung’s Galaxy Buds 3 FE were released earlier this month for $149.99. The company hasn’t yet knocked down the price, but it’s including a free Galaxy SmartTag 2 at Amazon.
