With the Soundcore Life P2 Anker offers inexpensive, cable-free in-ears that sound good, support high-quality audio codecs with aptX as well as the AAC format and offer a decent runtime.

Mackie MP-460
Mackie has added three more headphones to their MP series: The MP-460 I am testing here is their new top model in this series.
Aukey EP-T28
With a purchase price of just under 40 Euros, the completely wireless Aukey EP-T28 offer amazing performance in terms of both sound and workmanship. Here once again, as with the EP-T21, the feeling that current technology can be quite affordable is reinforced. Nevertheless, there are upsides and downsides.
Mackie MP-360
About two years ago Mackie released their MP series: All three pairs of headphones – the MP-120 , the MP-220 and the MP-240 – were aimed at musicians and sound engineers who are looking for monitor headphones for the stage and the FoH/monitor mixing desk. Now Mackie has added three more pairs of headphones to the MP series: the MP-360, which I'm testing here, ranks in the middle of the hierarchy of the three MP newcomers.
RHA TrueConnect 2
A little more than a year ago, we completed our test of RHA’s debut True Wireless headphones the TrueConnect. Their successor is now available with even better support and they are even a few Euros cheaper.
Ultrasone Saphire
The 4-way Ultrasone Saphire are in-ears that provide six drivers at once, and use balanced armature and electrostatic technology.
Mackie MP-320
I remember when I had the pleasure of testing Mackie's first three in-ear headphones about two years ago: The MP-120 , the MP-220 and the MP-240 were aimed at musicians and sound engineers who were looking for monitor headphones for use on stage, with FoH/monitor mixing desks or in the recording studio. Now Mackie has added three more technically advanced headphones to the MP-series: The MP-320 that I am testing here is higher in the price hierarchy than the MP-240 and the most affordable of the three new ones.
Google Pixel Buds
The new Pixel Buds from Google don't have much in common with their predecessors, except for their name. Their most striking feature is their completely new look: what were loose-fitting earbuds are now tighter-fitting in-ears, and the thin fabric string between the two earplugs has also gone. This sounds great – but will the 2020 model be judged to be our (Pixel) buddy?
Technics EAH-TZ700
With the EAH-TZ700, Technics demonstrate an audiophile ear for transparent and balanced sound that literally isolates you from your surroundings.
Sennheiser IE 500 Pro
