Apple fans are gearing up for this week’s announcement about the company’s next generation of products. It looks like Apple’s prices will be steeper across the board, but there’s no word yet on if those numbers will affect Apple’s ubiquitous AirPods. The newer version of the AirPods are rumored to have fresh features involving Siri and more options for hands-free use, but unfortunately, their $159 sticker price shows no signs of dropping. However, here are five wireless options that give you Bluetooth freedom without emptying your pockets.
Air Bud Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds
This Bluetooth budget option has a similar streamlined design to Apple’s AirPods for 85% less. Air Bud’s earbuds have crisp sound without the bulk of other wireless options, and their included case lets you carry around an extra 10 charges wherever you go. These buds make wireless listening accessible for everyone, whether you’re catching up on your favorite podcast on your way to work or sweating it out at the gym.
