Everyone has had those earbuds. The ones you need to put in your ear back in college and had them cause an immediate earache for just about no reason. Those earbuds were always uncomfortable and now, the days seem to be gone where you don't have to purchase anything, go anywhere, and just be out on the town wearing them.

With this, the booming music of the portable devices and connected to them now is a thing that is ubiquitous because of all the choices, as well as accessibility technology, offers with the release of the iPhone 6s or Samsung's Note 5. With the looming challenges of an everchanging society and the cultural changes taking place, these Bluetooth earbuds provide a perfect solution to deliver sound while on the go.

List of Riding Earbuds

FOCUSPOWER F10 Mini Bluetooth Earbud

FOCUSPOWER is the choice for anybody who wants the best quality bass paired with a sleek design that will blend in. The SiriusXM option is a brilliant change from the bad out there of not being able to listen to any music station with the same battery life as competitors. The option to download an app with Pandora streaming sounds like a major perk that allows for extended usage.

After a little bit of searching on Amazon, the only type of earbuds that haven't been found are any of the truly wireless earbuds, but all the other types are available. The best quality earbuds are what make this voice set sound amazing for everyone who uses them. There is no better option than this technology today in the market. No iPod or Bluetooth speaker system can produce the amount of tone these buds can, giving you more than just the chance to get to know your listening experience and giving you one less item to carry to and from a destination.

Pros:

  • The design is surprisingly neat.
  • Technology is how much you put in your ears.
  • The car’s auxiliary systems are a little nice.
  • The noise-canceling is outstanding and they are great for productivity
  • The sound quality of the available brands is outstanding.

Cons:

  • The prices of the brands that offer the headphones and models are high.

Shure SE215-K Sound Isolating Earphones

With an in-ear design and 40mm drivers, Shure SE215-K are two pairs of headphones that hit a home run on the audio spectrum. The SE215-K features a noise-canceling element to help block out unwanted noises. It was also super comfortable wearing these headphones for the duration of our tests. These cans won't just appeal to audiophiles. They're great for the office too.

If you're working from home and the noise in the office gets to be a nuisance, these earbuds will help you absorb the noise. Pair these cans with any pair of small noise-canceling earbuds to get the most out of these cans. The features of these headphones are strong and the sound quality is to die for. These headphones will sound great with a variety of music formats.

The highest quality sounds are only available in the AAC format. Unfortunately, there isn't a balanced pairing option but you should be able to play it with some pretty basic music formats. If you're going to get some headphones for playing music and aren't really in a hurry, these will be great. These will only heat up if your ears are warm or cold. Since you're not sitting in a hot room, it's a great option.

Pros:

  • Best sound quality
  • Beautiful design
  • Active noise cancellation technology

Cons:

  • No balanced pairing option

Betron YSM1000 Earbuds:

I have tried several earbuds in the past, with varied results. This is why I decided to give this series of earbuds ago: because they are my first attempt to use a pair of wired earbuds as a pair of wireless earbuds. I have to say, I am very happy with them, and I like how they sound. The earbuds are enclosed by a thick, flexible ear seal, ensuring the back of the earpads doesn't scratch when using it as a pair of wireless earbuds.

This only improves the performance of the earbuds as they sound better. The earbuds are also comfortable. The earphones are highly comfortable. I was wearing them for around 45 minutes before I even noticed my arms were warmer than usual. I thought I was wearing comfy clothes and that I was just stretching my arms a little extra.

All things considered, the earbuds sound great and they don't have any frills that will make them uncomfortable when wearing them. The earbuds run for around 10 hours on a charge, which is good. I use my earbuds to listen to podcasts on my computer or to consume background noise at work, so I feel they're going to last a long time. Also, they are truly wireless.

Pros:

  • Comfortable to wear
  • Perfect sound quality
  • Excellent battery life

Cons:

Audio-Technica ATH-ANC23 Noise-Cancelling In-Ear Headphones:

If you're looking for a pair of noise-canceling headphones that also sound good, this $99 pair from Audio-Technica is a great value. We've seen them for twice the price but they do have some decent quality. The drivers aren't quite as sensitive as many other noise-canceling models, but if you're sensitive to noise, that's no problem.

Sound quality for some headphones is subjective and independent. For some headphones, better is better, and for others, the subpar sound quality won't sway you away from buying them. That said, the sound quality of ATH-ANC23 is good overall, even with their very affordable price tag. You'll likely need something like these if you like listening to music with a noise-canceling device over the speaker.

If you own an iPod or other portable device, you're probably using your audio device with the noise-canceling headphones on. You need something like this if you're listening to music while traveling. One of the comfier cables on ATH-ANC23 comes from a speaker that also includes a USB-C port. This means you'll be able to plug your USB-C-only headphones directly into a laptop or another portable device via a cable.

Pros:

  • Excellent sound quality
  • Built-in mic
  • Airline plug adapter included

Cons:

  • Awkward cable length

Conclusions:

If you are looking for a nice pair of earbuds that are comfortable and great-sounding, then the above-mentioned earbuds are a good pair of buds that are widely available from various retailers. I thought these earbuds sound great, which is something I don't usually see in the value-for-money set! The sizing and fit of these earbuds are perfect, and they're small enough to wear for an extended period. If you're looking for earbuds that are medium to expensive, they're decent. With a good pair of earbuds, you're able to have a great day.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
