When it comes to headphones, there's more to consider than just sound quality. 

Our in-depth test of headphones from Apple, Bose, Google, Sony, Sennheiser and more helps you find the ones that:

  • have the best sound quality
  • have the best active noise cancellation (where available)
  • have the best battery life
  • are the easiest to set up and use.

We've also partnered with on this update to show the ratings the Ethical Consumer Group gives to each company.

Shopping links on the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳website

ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳is an independent, nonprofit organisation dedicated to helping consumers. Clicking a link will take you to a retailer's website to shop. While we make money if you buy through some retailer links, this doesn't influence any of our rankings. 100% of the money we make goes straight back into our nonprofit mission. We're currently testing this service and will consider providing more shopping links in the future. .

Once you're ready to buy, use our interactive comparison tool to find out which headphones have optional cable connectivity, apps for iOS and Android, the ability to pair to multiple devices at once and more. If you just want the best, our Recommended list shows you at a glance which models topped our tests.

Note: We updated and overhauled our standard and noise-cancelling headphones test in March 2024. Results for both types of headphones are now displayed in the one review following changes to our test method and scoring system. For a complete explanation of the changes, please read our article on how we test headphones.

A panel of five experts assess sound quality by listening to classical, jazz, pop and a podcast. If the headphones support Bluetooth and a cabled connection, they are primarily tested with a Bluetooth connection. Active Noise Cancellation is on during the assessment if available and tested in environments with varying levels of noise. Technical assessments are also conducted.
