Sony WF -1000x True Wireless Earbuds

At first glance, Sony WF-1000X looks like a cheap pair of earbuds which are provided by the company in the box with their phones. But this little guy has a trick up its sleeve to compete with the best in the market.
Design
The design of the earbuds looks not only cheap but tends towards the heavier end which might make it uncomfortable for long wear for some people.
Audio
With Sony WF-1000X, Sony introduced noise cancellation into the “Truly Wireless Earbuds” segment. The sound quality of the earbuds
Controls
The controls of the WF-1000X are simple. Each earbud has a button. The left earbud turns the headphone on and off and is also used for pairing. The right one is for play/pause, skipping the track and answering calls. The controls are pretty standard but the most important thing missing here is the volume control. The earbuds provide no means to control the volume which again makes us reach back into our pockets to get our phone and reduce the volume manually.

Skullcandy Push Truly Wireless Earbuds

Design
The company is known for its bold fashion statements and Push is no stranger to this tradition. For me this earbuds looked the coolest until I held it in my hand. The build from looks premium from distance but the feel is all plastic which is a major turn-down for me personally.
Audio
With the Push, we have ourselves
Controls
What it does get right is the fit and the buttons. Push is comfortable to wear and the buttons on the earbuds are tactile in a good way allowing you to control everything from volume control, music playback to using your phone’s assistant.

Jabra Elite 65t Truly Wireless Earbuds

Want a good audio experience but don’t want to stand out in the crowd? Jabra Elite 65t is the one for you.
Design
A minimalist design but even after using plastic for the build, the earphones still give the premium vibe. The fit is one of the many benefits the Elite 65t offers. The build is soft plastic which sits comfortably in your ear which makes it usable for prolonged period of time.
Audio
The audio quality is awesome. The bass is there but not overwhelming. It’s a balanced experience but with all the competition in the
It doesn’t end here. One of the major issues that people face with earbuds is forgetting to turn them off. Don’t worry, Jabra has got your back. The earbuds when
Controls

Beats PowerBeats Pro

Design
This one here is dedicated truly to the athletes. With a sporty look, the PowerBeats Pro provides one of the best comfortable wear which enables you to listen to music for hours at a stretch. The build quality is awesome and the earbuds won’t come off no matter how much you try to shake it off. Despite having such spectacular design the only bugger here is the design of the case. The case itself looks elegant and minimalist but it’s sheer size makes it bulky and puts portability to question.
Audio
The bar set by Beats is high and PowerBeats Pro delivers on that promise. It shines the most while listening to EDM, R&B and rap. The overall sound quality is pretty good but for all those with keen music ears, you might be a little disappointed. This pair of earbuds were made keeping workouts in mind. During workouts one can enjoy the music that the PowerBeats Pro provide. Coming to the noise cancellation, PowerBeats Pro offer no noise cancellation (not even passive noise cancellation) which means that you would be hearing everything around you unless you turn the volume up to an extent which makes it uncomfortable to hear. But once in a quiet environment it provides an experience like no other. If put under right conditions PowerBeats Pro is a great choice.

Bose SoundSport Free True Wireless Earbuds

What happens when one of the major players in the market comes to a new segment? You pretty much expect them to bring something new and worth your money. Unfortunately, Bose doesn’t quite live up to those expectations.
Design
Bose decided to go with the open design for the SoundSport Free Earbuds. The build of the SoundSport Free is robust and is well groomed for daily workouts and lengthy training sessions. Being water proof you don’t even have to worry about it anymore. But what is truly worrisome is that the SoundSport Free stick out of your ears quite a bit and can also get knocked off your ear easily if you are not careful with it.
Audio
This is one area that Bose gets right but there is also a condition for that, the open design being the main reason behind it. In a quiet environment the SoundSport Free truly shines and provides one of the best sound in the price range. But if used in public space, all the noise seeps through the open design shattering the soothing experience that it could provide. Moreover, the ear tips are not meant for everyone. For some it might be a perfect fit while for others, prolonged sessions are doubtful. If you are keen on buying SoundSport Free, it is advised to try it out at a store before placing the order.
Battery and Connectivity
The battery backup is pretty decent. The SoundSport Free last for about 5 hours on a full charge. Including the case, the total goes up to 15 hours of playback time. Another area where the SoundSport Free truly shines is the connectivity. The connection is ultra-reliable and almost never gets disconnected. The call quality is one of the best out there and totally worth the money if this is what you are looking for.

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless

The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless are one of the costlier earbuds that you can buy but the question here is, will it be worth the extra money?
Design
The silicone build makes the Momentum light weight and comfortable to wear. The earbuds feature the silver linings of the Momentum series providing it with a simple but premium look. The magnetic gold points make the Momentum earbuds attach to the case with a satisfying click making the experience much better.
Audio
Apart from the aesthetics, the Momentum Wireless doesn’t compromise with the sound quality and lives up to the bar set by itself. The Momentum earbuds does justice to all genres of music. The bass is not the best but it’s definitely there. The transparent hearing feature is a pretty cool feature to have which allows outside noise to seep in but the noise cancellation isn’t the best either.
Controls
The tap function of the Momentum make controlling your audio pretty simple and convenient. The only drawback of this feature is we can’t control the volume as precisely as we would want but this shouldn’t be a deal breaker.
Battery and Connectivity
The battery backup is decent. It gives you 4 hours of playback time on a full charge. Combined with the 2 charges provided by the case it gives a total playback time of 12 hours.
Coming back to the question, is the price tag of the Sennheiser Momentum justified? If you are willing to shell out the extra money to buy a pair of wireless earbuds then
