Sound quality, comfort (a good fit is crucial) and durability are most important when choosing headphones, but these are often overlooked in favour of hi-tech gizmos including wireless connectivity, voice control and ANC. The more features you opt for, the less emphasis there will be on sound quality, so think about what\u2019s most important.<\/span><\/p>\n

How much do Bluetooth headphones cost?<\/span><\/h2>\n
You do get what you pay for \u2013 especially sound quality \u2013 so spend at least \u00a350 for basic headband-style Bluetooth headphones and \u00a370-120 if you have to have Active Noise Cancelling (ANC).<\/span><\/p>\n
Does Bluetooth sound good?<\/span><\/h2>\n
Older headphones with Bluetooth V4.2 were convenient but often sounded poor. The latest V5 Bluetooth is twice as fast with four times the range, and can transfer eight times as much data. This means more audio data can be transferred so your music sounds better.<\/span><\/p>\n

The price tag may appear steep for headphones, but for all the latest features \u2013 great battery, Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), Bluetooth 5.0 wireless connectivity and decent sound quality \u2013 you\u2019re going to have to invest a little. This pair from Japanese high-end audio brand Final ticks all the budget boxes. Final makes some fantastic top-end headphones \u2013 the \u00a33,999 D8000 Pro had me remortgaging \u2013 and while these don\u2019t compare, they do boast a considered performance and soundstage that could only come from a brand that puts audio first. <\/span><\/p>\n
ANC often sullies sound quality, but Final has developed a new driver specifically tuned to cope with the added technology in our ears, and the result puts other budget headphones \u2013 and even some premium headphones \u2013 to shame. While the ANC is extremely effective at blocking unwanted noise, the Bluetooth 5.0 aptX offers the possibility of almost CD-quality streaming, and they boast a battery life of up to 35 hours. \u00a3119 doesn\u2019t buy you all the features: there\u2019s no auto-pausing if you remove them, on-ear controls are minimal and the buttons and casing are a little plasticky, although the soft-textured, fingerprint-proof coating is a nice touch, and they fold small for easy storage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
