5 ESSENTIAL ADD-ONS

True wireless headphones are great but they’re no use in isolation. Here are five awesome gadgets we recommend pairing them with

MOSHI PORTO Q

While it’s not the cheapest charger out there, this is pretty much perfect for juicing up your true wireless buds. Not only does it offer 5W Qi charging, it also has a 5,000mAh in-built battery, making it the ideal last resort when even your case is flat.

GARMIN FORERUNNER 245 MUSIC

Nothing goes as well with a nice-fitting set of true wireless buds as a lightweight running watch with built-in music storage. And the Forerunner 245 Music is a great option, offering six hours of battery in GPS mode with music.

MIGHTY VIBE

Running watches aren’t for everyone and yet there are plenty of times you want tunes while travelling light. The iPodShuffle-esque Mighty Vibe fills that Lilliputian hole, offering Spotify and Amazon Music playlists on the go, as well as podcasts. Not only that: it offers over five hours of playback!

RHA BLUETOOTH ADAPTER

Once you’ve waved wires goodbye, you’ll never want to go back. But what about all that medieval audio gear that still relies on 3.5mm outputs? Well with a few of these, you can convert all those quaint electric signals into high-fidelity aptX Bluetooth 5.0.

OLIXAR SAMSUNG GALAXY BUDS LIVE SILICONE CASE

If you’ve bought some tasty aural beans in a plush case, the last thing you want is for it to get scratched. Fortunately, this fella has you covered, keeping your case protected in grippy silicone that has cutouts for the USB-C port and LED indicator.
