The best AirPods, and Apple headphones more broadly, are known for being top quality in terms of sound, performance, features and design. While they typically sit at a higher price range – just like most Apple products – they do give you your money's worth.
Apple headphones have come a long way from the flimsy wired EarPods that came with every new iPhone. They did the job, but not particularly well. Fast-forward to today and Apple is a true contender in the audio space. In fact, AirPods are among the best wireless earbuds and best over-ear headphones on the market and since Apple acquired the Beats brand back in 2014 the best Beats headphones are part of the brand's audio portfolio.
After testing every single pair of AirPods and Beats headphones that have been released, we've put together this list for you, breaking down their special features and specs to help you find the most ideal choice based on your needs, budget and preferences.
According to expert sources, the AirPods 4 are expected to be launched at the Apple Event on September 9th, 2024. We'll be keeping an eye on all the leaks and rumors, so be sure to keep checking back for the latest news.
The Quick List
If you're keen to cut to the chase and find out which AirPods and Beats buds are the best, you’ll find a roundup of our choices below. You can also jump to a more detailed review of every pick, along with our price comparison tool at the bottom of this post to help you find the best deals.
The best AirPods overall
If you want fantastic audio performance and astounding ANC in a compact, wireless, and still very AirPods-esque, design, these are the best choice.
The best over-ear AirPods
These are the best (and only) Apple-branded over-ears delivering extraordinary sound and a comfortable design. The only drawback? They're expensive.
The best mid-tier AirPods
With impressive spatial audio, good sound and solid connectivity, these AirPods are a great option if you don't care about active noise cancellation.
The best budget AirPods
While this older pair of AirPods has been well surpassed, if you're strapped for cash and nothing other than Apple will do, these are a great cheap option.
The best AirPods alternative from Beats
Offering most of the same features as AirPods Pro 2, but for significantly less, these are a great alternative to a pair of mid-range AirPods.
The best Beats over-ears
If you prefer the fit and audio experience of over-ears, these are the best of the bunch from Beats with a solid build, simple features and reliable sound quality.

The best cheap AirPods alternative from Beats
These cost about the same as the cheapest AirPods, but offer better sound and active noise cancellation, though they lack Find My support or device auto-switching.
Best Beats buds for sports
With many of the features of the AirPods Pro but cheaper, these buds are built for movement with ANC and an IPX4 rating, making them sweat-proof.
I've been testing and reporting on cutting-edge audio products since 2012, stretching back to iPod dock speakers and early neckband wireless earbuds. I've used every pair of AirPods released to date personally, and I've tested all the Beats products in this guide too. The list below is my recommendation for which AirPods are best to focus on, and which Beats products fill the gaps between them, while still offering smart features for Apple users.

The best AirPods of 2024
Why you can trust TechRadar We spend hours testing every product or service we review, so you can be sure you’re buying the best. Find out more about how we test.
The best AirPods for most people
✅ You want excellent noise cancellation: No other Apple earbuds in this list deliver such accomplished noise cancellation, wrapping you in a cocoon of sound.
✅ You want a long battery life: You'll find better battery from other brands, but as far as AirPods are concerned, these are top of the class, with 6 hours in the buds.
❌ You don't have a big budget: They're good value compared to other premium buds, but still expensive overall.
❌ You don't like an in-ear fit: The ear-tip fit isn't for everyone – if you like the outer-ear fit, or to not be cut off from the world as much, the AirPods 3 may suit you better.
The highly-anticipated Apple AirPods Pro 2 entered our best AirPods guide in the top spot because they're a significant upgrade over the original AirPods Pro, offering fantastic audio performance and astounding ANC in a compact, wireless, and still very AirPods-esque, design.
The Apple AirPods Pro made waves when they first launched, bringing ANC and better audio to the AirPods form factor. Now the Pro 2 offer much more, including fantastic audio performance thanks to new drivers and amplifiers. There’s also better ANC on-board too which, during our testing, we found to be remarkably effective, blocking out almost all external sounds.
Battery life has had a decent boost over the originals as well. It’s good for all-day listening at 6 hours from the buds and 30 hours from the charging case. The case has been revamped too, with an IPX4 water resistance rating for light showers and sweat as well as a built-in speaker so you can find it if you lose it.
If you already have a pair of AirPods Pro buds you might not be able to justify an upgrade, despite some of the changes. However, if you're looking for the best Apple has to offer, the AirPods Pro 2 are the top option, rivalling many of the top wireless earbuds from the likes of Bose, Sennheiser and Sony.

The best over-ear AirPods
✅ You want the very best sound: The audio quality offered here is exceptional. You can't go wrong if you care about best-in-class sound from a pair of over-ears.
✅ You care about noise cancellation: The AirPods Max are an almost unbeatable choice if you need excellent ANC that blocks out the world around you.
❌ You can't afford the huge expense: Yes, they're a phenomenal pair of headphones, but they've got a high-end price tag to match.
❌ You want a 3.5mm port: Fine, you can buy a USB-C to 3.5mm audio port adaptor, but it doesn't seem right there isn't one built-in for listening via a wired connection.
The Apple AirPods Max were some of the most highly-anticipated headphones ever. Rumors and speculation about what they'd look like and sound like have been swirling for years. So do they live up to the hype now they're here? Well, yes and no.
When we finally got our hands on the AirPod Max we found that, as you might expect, the audio quality was nothing short of extraordinary. The design and build was also solid and unmistakably Apple and they were comfortable too. We also appreciate the use of physical controls as opposed to the voguish swipe controls that most wireless headphones seem to favor these days.
We particularly liked the reprisal of the Apple Watch's Digital Crown, which allows you to precisely adjust the volume and easily control your music playback. What's more, they have brilliant quality of life features for those already devoted to the Apple ecosystem.
But it isn't all good news. The most obvious drawback is the price. Apple has always created luxury tech with a higher-than-average price tag, but these are $549 / £549 / AU$899 and it's still quite hard to find them more cheaply even though they've been out for a long time now. In our review, we didn't think the performance (although great) matched the sky-high price, and we can understand why many would prefer to shop for budget headphones instead.
The AirPods Max also come with a case that automatically puts them into a low power standby mode, and into an even lower power mode after 18 hours. That's useful, but the case itself is exceptionally ugly, doesn't offer significant protection and leaves the headband of the AirPods Max totally exposed.

The best mid-tier AirPods
✅ You're keen to experience Spatial Audio: These are the cheapest AirPods model to support Spatial Audio, which is especially good if you watch lots of movies.
✅ You don't like an in-ear fit: These sit just outside the ear canal, unlike the into-the-ear fit of AirPods Pro.
❌ You want noise cancellation: There's no ANC here, and the design means passive noise cancellation isn't great either. Look at the Pro buds instead.
❌ You want the absolute best value for money: For not that much more, you can get the far superior-sounding and better-featured AirPods Pro 2 – or better-sounding options from other brands.
The Apple AirPods (3rd generation) represent a big step up from their predecessors (the 2019 AirPods model) regarding audio performance, connectivity, and design. So even though they're pricier than the AirPods that came before them, it makes sense considering their upgrades, and they're our top mid-tier pick for that reason.
During our testing, we were most impressed by Apple's improvements to the sound quality offered by its flagship AirPods. They're fitted with new drivers and amplifiers. In our review, we wrote that these upgrades "do better at conveying bass frequencies than the AirPods 2, and they offer a more powerful, warmer sound."
Features like Spatial Audio support and Adaptive EQ set these buds apart from the competition. However, the 3rd-generation AirPods, or AirPods 3, are unsurprisingly optimized for use within the wider Apple ecosystem. This means if you're an Android user, you will miss out on many of the extra features that set them apart from other true wireless earbuds on the market. Plus, there's no active noise cancellation here, which means they aren’t the most high-spec earbuds at this price.
The AirPods have a more subtle design than the second-gen AirPods, too, with shorter stems and contoured housings that we found much more comfortable to wear during our testing. Their lightweight build and IPX4 water-resistance rating make them an option for working out – though you'll get a more secure fit from the Beats Fit Pro further down this guide. This new design also brings force capacitive sensors (aka: squeeze controls) for the first time, which we remarked were "super-responsive" during our review, and we rate them as being among the best on-ear controls on earbuds. They don't offer a volume control option, though.
Although they're a significant upgrade over the AirPods that came before them, it's worth remembering that they're not the newest AirPods on the market – that title goes to the Apple AirPods Pro 2 at the top of this list, which don't cost very much more if you get them while on the very regular discounts they receive, but are far superior overall. However, we know not everyone likes an in-ear fit, and might prefer the AirPods 2rd Gen because they don't go right in your ear canal

The best budget AirPods
✅ You find a good deal: These older AirPods have already had a significant price cut, but if you see them even cheaper, they can be worth it.
✅ You like a really small case: They have the smallest, sveltest case of nearly any wireless earbuds, but definitely of the AirPods.
❌ You want top audio quality: These older AirPods have fallen behind the budget earbuds competition when it comes to audio bang for your buck.
❌ You can afford the AirPods 3: Choosing the cheaper pair is tempting, but if your budget can stretch, the AirPods 3 are a significant upgrade.
The second-generation Apple AirPods are now five years old and have been usurped by the AirPods 3 in our guide above for a general recommendation. However, despite the fact they launched back in 2019, these AirPods still sport some cool features that may make them worth it if you're an iPhone user looking for a bargain. That's because they've been given a permanent price cut, making them the cheapest AirPods you can buy today.
By today's standards, the sound quality of these earbuds is pretty mediocre (the likes of the Sony WF-C700N and Nothing Ear (a) cost around the same and are in a totally different league, while also offering active noise cancellation), but they'll certainly work as a pair of earbuds for casual music listening or making phone calls.
Features on offer from these older buds may not compare to newer AirPods, but you still get some stuff that few other buds offer, including fast pairing to Apple devices, auto-switching between Apple devices, and Find My support to help you find them them when they're lost. You get some of these from the Beats Studio Buds elsewhere in this list for around the same price, which also sound better and have active noise cancellation, but there's one other potential advantage these AirPods have: they don't fit right into your ear canal. Some people much prefer this kind of fit, and AirPods 2nd Gen are the cheapest way to get it while also getting the unique Apple-friendly features.
In summary, you'll find much better AirPods in this list, as well as more modern rivals boasting newer tech at a similar price. But if you've got your heart set on a pair of AirPods and want to grab some on a budget, these will still do the job.

The best Beats headphones
Apple headphones aren't just limited to AirPods. When Apple acquired the Beats brand back in 2014, it expanded its audio portfolio considerably. Today, the best Beats headphones rank highly among our best workout headphones thanks to their Apple smarts.
Best AirPods alternative from Beats
✅ You want stylish buds: Beats has always been a good-looking brand, but these buds are exceptionally cool with a transparent design.
✅ You want a comfortable, reliable fit: Not only do they look good, they feel great. They're lightweight enough to wear for hours and gym-proof for working out.
❌ You want to tweak the sound: These buds don't have an iOS app to customize the sound, which is a shame as they have an overly crisp sound signature.
❌ You need wireless charging: They charge using a USB-C port on the case instead, putting them behind most rivals.
Beats went back to the drawing board for its May 2023-issue Studio Buds Plus, making improvements to the call quality, noise cancellation and design compared to the original (slightly further down this list).
Beyond updated ANC, the new earbuds feature configurable on-bud control buttons, Siri voice command support, auto-switching between Apple devices, and Find My for iOS – very comparable to the AirPods models above. They also support head-tracked spatial audio, letting you listen in a 360-degree sound field when playing music and movies mixed in Dolby Atmos. There’s certainly enough going on here feature-wise, though the lack of a wireless charging option is a disappointment.
In our testing, we found that the crisp sound of the Beats Studio Buds Plus should appeal to those who value sonic sharpness and clarity above all else. When compared to other wireless earbuds with a more neutral and natural presentation, however, it seems that Beats went overboard in that respect. Noise cancelling is effective and so is the buds’ Transparency mode, so the company hit its mark when it comes to those features – though the AirPods Pro 2 do both better, for a little more money.
The Buds Plus also provide a firm fit – four silicone ear tip size options are provided – that holds up even during strenuous exercise, and they are comfortable enough to wear for hours at a time. A solid overall wireless earbud option for commuting and exercise – and if you buy them on a discount, they undercut the AirPods Pro 2 very nicely on price, making them a great mid-range AirPods options. Most of the features of AirPods Pro 2, but for a price closer to AirPods 3rd Gen – great stuff.

Best AirPods Max alternative from Beats
✅ You want lossless via USB-C: Want lossless sound from an iPhone 15 or other USB-C device? That's possible here.
✅ You want good-looking headphones: Beats headphones always look stylish, but these over-ears are minimal, sleek and fold up nicely.
❌ You want the best battery life: The battery here isn't bad at 24 hours with ANC on, but most over-ear noise-cancelling rivals can beat it.
❌ You want all of the finest features: No multi-point pairing or wear detection isn't a big deal but if you want a premium experience with all the trimmings, this isn't it.
The Beats Studio Pro are our top pick if you want Beats headphones with an over-ear design. Unfortunately, they lack Apple's H1 or H2 chip, multi-point pairing and wear detection, but there are enough features on offer to make them practical for everyday use, like choosing between noise cancellation modes. You also get lossless audio and EQ options, but only via USB-C and not Bluetooth.
In our review of the Beats Studio Pro we wrote that these over-ears sound good and have powerful bass. For Apple users, support for personalized spatial audio and Dolby Atmos provides a noticeable boost, alongside head tracking. Android users get standard spatial audio without head tracking.
The Beats Studio Pro have a simple and sleek over-ear design. They're lightweight at only 270g and fold inwards, making them easy to pack up and put in a bag. The over-ears have physical buttons, which work well compared to some rivals with only gesture controls, but we still didn't enjoy the feeling during our testing. The only issue we had with the design of these nice-looking over-ears is they're quite tight. Yes, you can adjust the fit but we think if you have a head that's on the larger side these might get uncomfortable.
The Beats Studio Pro are a solid pair of over-ears that may not have the bells and whistles of rivals but will deliver good sound and ANC – and they dropped in price by 50% during sales events not long after their launch in 2023, so if you can find them for 40%-50% off, they're definitely well worth a purchase.

Best cheap AirPods alternative from Beats
✅ You want a comfortable pair of buds: These buds manage to be both stylish and exceptionally comfortable – a rare combination.
✅ You want a good value pair of buds: You'll find cheaper options, but these buds are more affordable than the AirPods Pro while offering solid all-round performance.
❌ You want the best noise cancellation: It's great that there's ANC here – and it should be fine for most listeners – but the AirPods Pro 2 are far superior.
❌ You want all-day listening: Battery life isn't bad at 5 hours from the buds, but it isn't the best either, and won't suit anyone who wants uninterrupted listening all day.
The Beats Studio Buds came out in 2021, but thanks to big price cuts, they're still a pair of solid true wireless earbuds with active noise cancellation – and they're a good value option for most people who aren't satisfied with the AirPods options above. For the price of the cheapest AirPods, you get better sound quality and the addition of ANC, so this may be the bargain you're looking for.
Despite the fact audio tech has moved on since their launch, they sound good. In our Beats Studio Buds review we said they offer a "fun, lively sound quality that's a pleasure to listen to" and that's still the case today. Design-wise, expect the cool and minimal Beats aesthetic as well as a design that we found supremely comfortable to wear for long periods of time during our testing.
They're not without some drawbacks, though. Chief among them is their lackluster call quality battery life with ANC turned on is a little short at only five hours (plus 15 hours from the case), and their noise cancellation isn’t exactly class-leading, either. For around the same price, the Sony WF-C700N or Nothing Ear (a) are superior for sound features and mic quality.
They also lack the Apple-friendly features you get from the Beats Studio Buds Plus further up this list, which is why those are a better option for people looking for an AirPods alternative overall – you still want AirPods features, right? But if you mainly want to keep your budget low, these are worth consideration still, when discounted.

Best AirPods alternative from Beats for sports
✅ You're looking for a solid pair of workout buds: Built for sport, they're perfect for workouts. They're comfortable, sweat-proof, have a wing tip and deliver a bassy sound.
✅ You want Apple H1 chip features: You'll get Spatial Audio support and hands-free Siri access, which basically no other workout buds offer.
❌ You want a small case: These have a big, bulky case to carry around – far beyond the AirPods Pro 2's case size.
❌ You want best-in-class ANC: The noise-cancellation on offer here is good, but it won't beat the likes of rivals from Sony, Bose or the AirPods Pro.
It's best to think of the Beats Fit Pro as the AirPods Pro in disguise. That's because they have the same H1 chip as Apple's earbuds, which brings many of the same features, including hands-free access to Siri and Spatial Audio in Apple Music. But the good news is that they're slightly cheaper, and their IPX4 rating means they should be sweat-proof for working out and running, which is why they're our top Beats recommendation for fitness.
Although the Beats Fit Pro were launched back in 2021, you'll still enjoy the sound quality on offer here. There's a driving bassline and Dolby Atmos tracks deliver an excellent sense of immersion that'll keep you focused whether you're at work or the gym. The design is what's really worth shouting about here. The Beats Fit Pro have a wing tip design that may not look innovative, but fits onto the inner ear to provide excellent stability.
As you'd expect, you'll get much better noise cancellation and sound quality from newer buds, like the AirPods Pro 2. We also did have a few criticisms in our review. They're not as loud as some rivals, and they seal so tightly that they can start to get uncomfortable after long periods. And while Android users can use these headphones quite happily, they don't get the Apple-specific features of the H1, which means we'd only wholeheartedly recommend them for iPhone users.
With that in mind, if you don't do workouts or other intensive fitness activities these probably aren't the Beats for you. But if you do, these are a superb pair of in-ears that stay put no matter how much you move around and deliver solid audio and call clarity in a compact and sweatproof package.

What new AirPods are coming soon?
It can be risky buying new AirPods because what if a new model is released in a few months you wish you’d waited for? We’ve got you. The AirPods 4, the next version of Apple’s non-Pro AirPods, haven’t been officially announced yet but are expected to land in September – and Apple has announced that its next event, called "It's Glowtime", will be on September 9th, 2024.
Right now we’re not sure what to expect from the AirPods 4, but rumors suggest we might see Apple's H2 chip (which is already in the AirPods Pro 2), better audio performance, improved noise isolation, a design update, including USB-C charging and a wireless charging case, and possibly even two new fourth-gen models of the non-Pro AirPods. We’ve written a guide to the 5 upgrades Apple AirPods 4 should steal from Sony, Bose and more that we’d like to see.
It’s a similar story for the AirPods Max 2 over-ear headphones. They haven’t been officially announced, but considering the hugely popular original AirPods Max were released nearly four years ago, rumors suggest they could also be released later in 2024 – possibly not at the same time time as the AirPods 4 and iPhone 16. (The original AirPods Max were a surprise December launch.)
We can only speculate about what to expect from the AirPods Max 2, but would love to see Apple's H2 chip on board, as well as some added features, like Adaptive Transparency and advanced Voice Isolation – features that could be borrowed from the AirPods Pro 2. We’ve also created a wishlist of the features we think the AirPods Max 2 should take from Sennheiser, Bose and Sony.
It seems unlikely that the AirPods Pro 3 will land in 2024. Rumors have been circulating that improved audio quality and some hearing-related health features might arrive in the Pro buds, but it’s looking as if we’ll have to wait until 2025 to find out for certain – AirPods Pro 2 only got updated to include USB-C a year ago, after all.
How to choose the best AirPods
How to choose the best Apple AirPods
If you know you want a pair of Apple headphones, then there isn't a huge amount of choice between AirPods and Beats buds. However, there are a few key considerations to bear in mind that should help you pick the right Apple headphones – whether it be AirPods or Beats buds – for you.
The most important consideration to begin with is the design. Do you want a pair of over-ears, like the AirPods Max or the Beats Studio Pro? Or do you want a pair of true wireless earbuds, like the AirPods Pro 2 or Beats Studio Buds? Some people like the feel of a pair of over-ears, but many like the convenience and flexibility of true wireless earbuds. It all comes down to personal preference.
Next up, which features are most important to you? For example, if you want great noise cancelling, then the Apple AirPods Pro 2 provide exceptionally immersive sound. If that's not a priority for you, then the Apple AirPods (3rd generation) might be a good option – and you'll save some pennies, too.
Finally, consider whether you definitely want a pair of earbuds or headphones from Apple. As you can see from this guide, Apple creates some excellent audio products, but if you're on a budget you might be disappointed by the lack of options here and can generally find a solid pair of all-rounder buds or headphones much cheaper elsewhere.
How much do Apple AirPods cost?
The Apple AirPods (2nd Gen) cost $129 / £119 / AU$219, while the AirPods (3rd Gen) cost $179 / £169 / AU$279. On the other end of the spectrum, the AirPods Pro 2 are more expensive at $249 / £249 / AU$399, and the AirPods Max are the most expensive at $549 / £549 / AU$89. All models are regularly discounted (though not by much) – read our guide to the best AirPods deals for the latest price cuts.
Are Apple headphones worth buying?
It depends on what you're looking for – if you want easy pairing with your iPhone, you can't go wrong with Apple or Beats headphones. But if you're looking for pure audio fidelity, you're better off looking at competitors like Sony and Bose, though the AirPods Max sound very good indeed.
Because all of the Apple AirPods are more expensive than a lot of their competitors, budget is a big consideration here too. Although we do think most of the AirPods are great value for money, you will find similar audio quality, designs and comfort in headphones that are significantly cheaper.
If you know you want to buy Apple AirPods but you're struggling to decide between AirPods models, our Apple AirPods vs AirPods Pro guide should help.
Can I work out with Apple headphones?
Yes. The best Apple headphones for working out are the Beats Fit Pro, thanks to their earhook design and sweat proof IPX4 rating. Other models, like the AirPods Pro 2 also have an IPX4 rating, but their design means they're more liable to fall out during vigorous exercise. For a more detailed overview of which AirPods are waterproof, read our guide.
Can AirPods connect to Android phones?
Yes, they can. You might find they're marginally slower to pair than they would be with an iPhone, but the difference is negligible. However, if you are using AirPods with an Android, you'll miss out on features like auto-pause or the ability to customize noise cancellation. That's worth considering if you have an Android phone and you're about to pay quite a hefty price for a pair of AirPods.
For more information about how AirPods work with Android phones and step-by-step instructions, read our what non-iPhone users need to know about Apple earbuds guide. Alternatively, if you're looking to connect your AirPods for the first time or wondering how to connect your AirPods to a laptop, then read our step-by-step instructions for more.
Do AirPods drain your iPhone battery?
A little bit, but they shouldn't make a massive difference to your iPhone battery life. When you're connected normally to your iPhone (as opposed to using AirPlay, which uses more power) your Bluetooth connection will use some battery power.
However, Bluetooth is designed to be a low power technology so even all-day streaming shouldn't do much damage to your battery life. AirPlay is more demanding because it uses the more power-hungry Wi-Fi to transmit and receive data.
The bigger drain on your battery isn't your AirPods connection: it's streaming music from the internet to your phone, especially when you're using mobile data rather than Wi-Fi.
If you're finding that you're only really listening to music and your battery isn't lasting all day, you might want to use your music app's offline mode and download the music to your phone rather than stream it when you're out and about.
But there are plenty more ways to make your AirPods battery life last longer. Read our guide to check your AirPods' battery level and learn how to make them last longer. After all, the battery – like with all earbuds – determines how long AirPods last so it's important to take care of it.
How we test the best AirPods
We've tested hundreds of audio devices over the years, which means that we know what makes an excellent pair of earbuds or over-ear headphones.
Each of the earbuds and headphones have been tested rigorously for sound quality, comfort, design and, in some cases, additional features, like ANC. We take earbuds out running and headphones on busy commutes, so we can say with authority how they work out in the real world.
In our guide above, we've listed all of the best Apple AirPods. And, because there aren't many models available, most of the Apple AirPods and Beats headphones you can buy today are included. However, that's not because we want to fill up the guide but because all of the products we've listed are genuinely excellent, all offering a brilliant Apple-esque design, solid sound and good features, too.
It might seem tempting to say all Apple products are great solely because they're from Apple. But in the guide above, we've detailed the pros and cons of each product. And we're not afraid to recommend other brands where we think you'd get better value for money, either.
