WINNER Sony WF-1000XM3

BEST TRUE WIRELESS EARBUDS

The Sony WF-1000XM3 is easily the best true wireless headphone for most people. To begin, its active noisecancellation is so good that it puts some full-size active noise-cancelling headphones to shame.

Excellent noise-cancellation aside, it also sounds great. Its clarity and resolution are impressive for a wireless audio device and its impactful, fullbodied sound belies the fact that it’s a tiny wireless earbud. Its comfortably one of, if not the best sounding true wireless earbuds in the market right now.

Finally, Sony has made meaningful updates to the companion app, so this gives you the ability to customise the earbuds. Whether it’s adjusting the level of ambient noise you hear, or what controls go to which earbud, that can all be set in the app to your liking, so you can personalise your experience. With all this said, it’s easy to see why it’s our pick for best true wireless earbud of 2019 and our winner in this category for Tech Awards 2020.
