The five most popular wireless headsets

s it still worthwhile to entangle those bloggers who are under the banner of “consumption upgrade”? Is it still really reliable to suspect that the "upgraded good things" in the circle of friends are endless? In order to solve your confusion, DT Jun launched the "NEXT50" series of research, with an objective and rigorous attitude, combined with the massive user evaluation data of major e-commerce platforms, quantitative evaluation of the 50 new hot categories in the wave of consumption upgrades, leading everyone "Science" upgrade.

DT Jun introduced the sports headphones before, did you become your fitness partner? In this issue of NEXT50, we will upgrade the experience of the ear, and give you a true wireless headset without wire troubles for those who love life and work hard.

DT Jun said

Since the birth of the first modern headphones in 1910, humans and headphone cords have been entangled for hundreds of years.

I was immersed in music when I was at work, and when I suddenly got up, my ears and the computer were dragged by the line. I think everyone has experienced it.

DT Jun vaguely remembers that AirPods was spit out when it was just listed, but it was EarPods that lost the ear wire. Because the appearance of "unsightly" is also called "Bean Sprout", even Sony's true wireless headset WF-1000X can not escape. The fate of the name of the soy product (common name "noise reduction beans").

Two years later, DT Jun looked at the buyer's comments on the purchase of true wireless headphones, but saw many people shouting "to meet each other." More and more passers-by put "bean sprouts" and "noise-reducing beans" into their ears, and pretend that they are not cool enough to pull out the charging box, and the tower will suck the headphones into the box.

Is it blindly following the trend? of course not.

In just two years, why did the real wireless headset turn against the wind? This is the DT Jun, and I will plant grass for everyone.

This article will tell you:

1. Compared with traditional wireless headphones, what are the real skills of real wireless headphones except for the headset?

2, true wireless headphones, not only can make you double the work efficiency, but also full of sports energy, practical and cool.

3. Who needs the most genuine wireless headset?

True wireless headphones, not just the ear line is not as simple

Despite the fact that this category is still very junior, the past two years have been very popular.

According to the NEXT50 selection rules, DT has identifiedfive of the most highly recommended headset brands from the consumer KOL monitoring library 1, in addition to the earliest known Apples for true wireless headsets, and the old-fashioned headset brand Sony, which was subsequently introduced. B&O, Philips, Jabra.

Based on this, combined with the sales data of Tmall, Jingdong and Suning, we found the hot wireless headset model and the latest price of the brand, and finally selected the five products for evaluation.

As shown above, the revolution of true wireless headphones is to eliminate the wires connecting the battery and the left and right ear channels. The specific experience, DT will be detailed below.

Next, we combine the above five products to see what a basic wireless headset, what basic training:

Taken together, a qualified true wireless headset must have at least the following upgrade points:

Ergonomics: The ear is becoming more important. After all, it is easy to lose. It is one of the slots that Apple AirPods first listed.

The more ergonomically complete ear design allows the earphones to be securely fastened with the help of ear contours and increased friction. Products such as the Jabra Elite Sport and the B&O Beoplay E8 also offer at least five optional earplugs to help you find the most comfortable and fit experience.

Long-lasting battery life: Battery life has always been abig problem for wireless headsets. The wireless headset is equipped with a charging box, which basically meets the needs of a full day of travel, and some products also support 15 minutes of fast charging, so that you can not lose the chain when you exercise and talk.

Control mode: Touch and button replace the headphone cable,and the instruction to play music and answer the phone is more intelligent. Apple AirPods can call Siri by tapping twice by default. Double-click the headset to answer when you call, double-click to hang up. In contrast, the same touch-controlled B&O Beoplay E8 command is cumbersome and takes a little time to remember.

Scene side listening: You don't need to take off the headphones, tap the start side listening mode, you can hear the ambient sounds such as vocals, car whistle, and experience similar reverse noise reduction, so that you can feel the surrounding environment to react.

Waterproof and sweatproof: Not all true wireless headphones come standard. Among the five products, only Jabra, which plays the main sports scene, has this function.

In terms of working distance, the Bluetooth wireless connection technology, the true wireless earphone and the traditional wireless earphone, are generally undisturbed within 10 meters and play stable.

In addition, brands such as Jabra are also active in the problem of easy-to-lost problems with the ear-mounted design, and can provide a single purchase plan. Can it alleviate the loss of the earphones?

Is it really easy to use? Heard what people have said

These upgrade points that look good are really solving the long-term pain points?

By convention, DT Jun collected nearly 5,000 valid user evaluations of the above five products in Tmall, Jingdong and Suning, and selected 20 keywords related to product experience:

"Sound quality" is naturally the focus of the masses to buy headphones, although the headphones below 10,000 yuan to listen to the sound, DT Jun screening mentioned "sound quality" comments found that 82% of users gave a positive evaluation, after all, the price is placed there, The sound quality is too bad to say.

"Bluetooth" and "connection" are also mentioned high-frequency vocabulary, limited by technology, the connection is unstable and the true wireless headphones have been criticized:

The only problem is that the left and right headphonetransmissions are not very stable. Sometimes the left earphones will have a flashing phenomenon, although the effect is not great, but I feel the feeling in my heart.

It takes time to improve stability. At present, the only effective method is firmware upgrade, or simply like the Sony WF-1000X,directly acknowledging the lack of product pages, using the announcement method to remind buyers:

Under certain conditions, Bluetooth communication may be interrupted, or noise or loss of audio signals may occur.

You must have seen it, and the top ranked"Apple." Most true wireless headsets use True Wireless Stereo technology, which can transmit the sound transmitted by mobile phones, computers and other devices without loss and quickly from one earphone to theother. Apple AirPods is the first real wireless headset that everyone knows. Thanks to the built-in W1 chip, the left and right ears can work independently. It can be seamlessly switched between iPhone, iPad, iWhach and iMac with Apple's whole family bucket. It is said to have the effect of "artifact". However, these upgrade experiences are not felt by Android users when using AirPods.

In general, the masses are "satisfied" with the performance of the true wireless headset. This upgrade experience caused by thesense of hearing has already revealed its true ability in many details of life. DT Jun has selected some experience scenarios. For reference:

For a breastfeeding mother, wireless headphones are a big boon. When you have to breastfeed every two hours, and want to see the variety to ease your postpartum depression, wear AirPods, and the mobile phone is placed next to the variety show.

The bike is very comfortable to listen to, and the sound is good. It is very comfortable to sleep and sleep.

Really suitable for my lazy girl! Wireless, noisereduction, but it will not shield the subway station sound and car sound, it is safer, listen to English listening to the song and then use ordinary headphonesto enlarge the volume in the subway~

It’s too convenient, and you don’t have to worry about driving a mobile phone and being fined!

There is really a surprise in the experience, but there arealso small bugs.

A little bit of moving? Don't worry about placing an order.

Buyers' comments are only individual consumptionexperiences. DT Jun will combine the “NEXT Index”2 to upgrade the core demand points of five consumptions from efficiency, health, professionalism, aesthetics and cure, and quantitatively evaluate five true wireless headphones. You can get a picture of the advantages and disadvantages of each product:

In terms of efficiency , with reference tothe product experience, connection speed and battery life, Apple AirPods can be paired with the Fruit Home product. No main and auxiliary ear troubles, wearing headphones will automatically play audio, take out automatic pause. With the charging box, it can be used for 24 hours. The maximum charge for 15 minutes can be used for up to 3 hours. It is already full state of Sony WF-1000X, so it scores 5 points.

In terms of health , considering the endurance of the ear, the true wireless earphone has a lot of effort in weight. Apple AirPods single earphones only 4g, Sony Wf-1000X, B&O F8,Jabra Elite Sport are also in the early 6g, this score point performance isconsidered excellent.

However, the design that is more suitable for the ear canal also makes the earplug cavity larger, and there will be pressure and pain whenworn, which is also the main reason for the lower overall health score.

Professionally , considering that the headset is used for a long time in the day, the intelligent matching scene noise reductionbecomes just needed. Among the five products, the Sony WF-1000X and the B&O Beoplay E8 provide traffic, social, and waiting for three matching scenarios, and receive corresponding points. In addition, the Jabra EliteSporty receives extra points for waterproofing and dustproofing and heart ratemonitoring.
