'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?
ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.
When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards.

This is the first time since their release that they have dropped to a price that low, and if you're looking for a great pair of noise-canceling earbuds, these are a great option. You can choose from four colors -- charcoal, coral, fog, and lemongrass -- and they come with a charging case that will give up to 31 hours of playback time. The earbuds themselves can last up to 11 hours, and just five minutes of charging can get you another hour of playback time.
Inside the earbuds, you'll find a pair of 11mm speaker drivers and Volume EQ that provides beautiful audio in your earbuds. It also uses wind-blocking technology to make sure that you not only can hear your music but can also hear and be heard when taking phone calls. They also come with IPX4 water resistance.
