How to choose wireless headphones for your computer

Soon winter will gradually transfer its rights to spring, and then to summer.

But in this situation, wearable devices capable of playing audio recordings can come to their aid. That's just the problem with headphones. Conventional wired ones are inconvenient, since the wire constantly restricts movement. The choice is steadily falling on wireless technologies.

Today you can find a huge variety of models on store shelves. True, they are not in very great demand. People are afraid to purchase such equipment, thinking that the quality will be low. Completely, however, in vain.

3. Naturally they are beautiful. Many people will pay attention to such a gadget.
4. No dependence on a mobile device.The fact that the phone is charging in another room will not create problems in order to use headphones.
5. Many models have their own memory, player and battery. They don't waste your phone's battery.

Flaws

Naturally, every thing in our life has not only positive qualities, but also negative ones. Wireless headphones also have them.

• Their quality is still inferior to their wired counterparts.
• The built-in battery makes the device heavier.
• They are not suitable for all phones. They cannot be used with devices that do not support Bluetooth technology.
• Good wireless headphones come at a high price.
• They tend to discharge at the most inopportune moment.
• They have enough for small dimensions; they cannot be put into your pocket every time.

Naturally, there are bound to be shortcomings. But progress does not stand still and soon all these difficulties will be resolved. And the positive aspects outweigh all the negative ones.

How to choose?

First, decide whether you need wireless headphones. It is quite possible that ordinary ones will be enough.

Purchasing a BN would be advisable if you need more freedom and convenience when working. For example, when jogging or driving.

• Please note whether it is possible to connect a cable. This is very convenient if the battery is running low. By connecting the cable, you can turn the BN headphones into wired ones.
• The third point is the weight of the device. Initially, wireless devices have a significant weight. After all, they have the ability to install additional batteries.
• On average, these devices weigh from 200 to 300 grams. If the weight is greater, it will create inconvenience for the owner.
• Sound quality. The sound is determined by the frequency range.The larger the diameter of the membrane, the better the quality of the sound.
• Decor. The speaker of the headphones is located in the cup. It can be completely open or only from the back. These are the so-called open and semi-open types. Their negative property is that others can hear what is playing in the speakers. If this bothers you, then it is better to buy a closed modification. They have good sound insulation, since the speaker is entirely hidden in the cup.
• Ear pads. They are located inside the ear. Vacuum pads penetrate deeper into the ear. They isolate better from sounds and are more securely fixed.
• Availability of volume control. If there is a regulator on the earphone, this simplifies their use.
• Game lovers prefer to purchase gaming headphones with wifi technology. Such models have a special sound. Game sounds are reproduced more realistically. In addition, they work smoothly with 7.1 speaker systems
• If you need to be reliably isolated from external sounds, choose models with a noise reduction system.

Prices for wireless headphones vary greatly. Therefore, you should not chase after big names. Essentially, a big name is just a name. There is a huge overpayment for it, while the quality of a cheap model may not differ much. If you carefully study product reviews and compare the characteristics of models, it is quite possible to find a suitable option for a price much lower than what you originally planned to spend.
