6 Factors to Picking the Right Headphones

Whether you're working in the office, going for a run, or tuning into a podcast, you’ll need a pair of headphones. Here are six factors to consider when choosing your next set.

1. Type

  • Over-the-Ear: Offers great sound quality but can be bulky.
  • On-Ear: More portable, decent sound quality.
  • In-Ear (Earbuds): Highly portable, ideal for athletics, but may drown out external noise.

2. Sound Quality

High-end headphones provide superior sound quality, typically found in over-the-ear models.

3. Portability

Earbuds and on-ear headphones are more portable than over-the-ear models.

4. Price

Balance cost with quality; high-end models may break easily despite good sound.

5. Purpose

Consider what you'll be using them for—work, exercise, travel.

6. Comfort

Ensure they fit well and won't cause discomfort during long periods of use.
