Battery life is crucial for wireless earphones – which have the most stamina?

The Bragi Headphones offer the longest battery life from a single charge (a very useful six hours), but because the carry case doesn’t recharge the batteries (missing a trick in our opinion), it’s game over when the power runs out.

In contrast, the Earin M-1s give you a measly three hours of playback time from a single charge, but a further three charges from the supplied carry case takes the total to an excellent 12 hours.

But Apple wins the battery battle hands-down. Thanks to the efficient W1 chip, you get a good five-hour stretch from a single charge, and enough juice in the charging case to keep you going for 24 hours; double that of the Earin M-1s.
