With every new flagship smartphone there seems to come a well designed, yet terribly expensive pair of truly wireless earbuds. As the market evolves however, more and more companies have been able to simplify the product’s formula, bringing lower prices that come with unnoticeable compromises. With this in mind, here are three of the best truly wireless earbuds that you can get for just $20.

Haylou GT1

Small is the name of the game when it comes to truly wireless earbuds, but be assured that you’re far from the only one that instantly assumed that small equals flawed – but with the Haylou GT1s this couldn’t be further from the truth.

Offering a solid range of touch controls, these earbuds offer all the conveniences of truly wireless earbuds whilst remaining discrete and fashionable in your day to day routine.

QCY T1C

Great tactile controls define this pair of earbuds. If you aren’t one to rapidly catchup with the gesture trend technology has been following, then solid and responsive buttons are a must – and the QCY T1C provides that in spades.

Following the solid build standard, the QCY T1C’s case is one of the sturdiest ones you’ll find around, alleviating the stress that may come with the fear of possibly scratching your brand new pair of truly wireless earbuds.

For the price, the Q32 pack some cool features that other headphones don’t

Alfawise Q32

With what seems like a gigantic carrying case, these earbuds come with an all-day battery life to match. Though that does come at the compromise of being harder to pocket than some other alternatives, the ability to use them for longer tasks such as a road trip or a long workout session make these earbuds more than worth the price of admission.

If that wasn’t enough to sway you into loving the Alfawise Q32, their wide range of touch controls make leaving your phone out of range while listening to music a true possibility – bringing the truly wireless future to your own hands for the cheap.

As it may have become clear, these devices are by no means perfect all-rounders, and with each pair nailing a certain specific feature, you as the consumer will always have to have a personal set of preferences. Nevertheless, for the low price of $20, each of these earbuds provide something worth discussing, and provide an audio experience that will be exceptional for your everyday pop and hip-hop listening sessions.

The more impressive takeaway from our research is that for a market that just two years ago was overpopulated with premium offerings, being able to find ways to enjoy a similar level of comfort for just $20 shows that great technology can indeed be accessible.
