These days we use headphones everyday for working out, listening music or books, watching our favourite show on Amazon Prime in public transport, Zoom video conferencing. Some of us even use it when doing household chores!
Here are several types of the headphones you can choose for a gift. To select a right type you would need to know when and how the person you are buying the gift for will be be using these headphones.
Closed-Back or Open-Back Headphones
Closed-back headphones block out any peripheral noise when using them. Open-back headphones allow some sound to escape. It feels more like listening to speakers in a room.
On-Ear or Over-Ear Headphones
Closed-back headphones block out any peripheral noise when using them. Open-back headphones allow some sound to escape. It feels more like listening to speakers in a room.
In-Ear Headphones or Earbuds
Both types are the most popular styles of headphone now due to the ease of use if you aren’t a home. In-ear headphones are for those who like to listen to music when working out here’s your best choice. Even though they are small they still provide a sound isolation and sound accuracy.
Similar to in-ear headphones, earbuds are very compact, but they struggle to create true sound isolation due to the size of the speaker. There are some higher quality models with advanced technology available on the market. The key benefit for earbuds is their size.
Bluetooth Headphones
Headphones with Bluetooth technology have a small computer chip inside of them that allow you to pair with the device you are playing music from. Connection via Bluetooth allows you to listen to the same sound as you would with normal headphone styles. The benefit of this type- no hassle with the cords!
Noise-Cancelling Headphones
With the special built-in technology, these headphones actively reduce the sound that you hear from your surroundings to create a quiet environment for listening to your music or sound.
When wearing the headphones be unaware of your surroundings... it is easy to get lost in the moment!
