Easy to carry and discreet to wear, wireless earbuds are the perfect accessory for enjoying music on the move this summer, whether you're relaxing at the beach, hiking up a mountain, in transit, or working out. Here's our pick of three pairs of wireless earbuds to slip into your suitcase this summer vacation.
AirPods
Apple's first wireless earbuds are still just as original in design and promise optimal performance thanks to their onboard W1 chip. Although essentially designed for users of iPhone or iPad devices – who can communicate directly with Siri and control their AirPods with voice commands – Apple's wireless earbuds can also function with Android devices over Bluetooth. Note that music playback stops automatically when at least one earbud is taken out of the wearer's ears.
The Apple AirPods cost US$159 (RM646).
