GRADO GT220

Grado’s headphones normally look like something a WW2 radio operator would wear to coordinate a Spitfire assault over the English Channel. But with true wireless earbuds taking over the world like an occupying force, Grado’s first pair are unusually understated. What the GT220S lack in visual flair they should make up for with sound quality, however: each one houses a specially tuned 8mm driver, with aptx Bluetooth 5.0 and support for hi-res audio, while the charging case boosts their 6hr battery life by an extra 30. There’s no noise-cancelling; but that would prevent you from detecting any bandits at six o’clock, otherwise known as pavement-hogging cyclists or runaway dogs. £250 / grado.co.uk
