The 5 Best Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds Under $100 of 2025

The Anker Soundcore Space A40 Truly Wireless are the best earbuds under $100 we've tested. These buds are jam-packed with active features like adaptive active noise cancelling (ANC), multi-device pairing, and companion app support that help them stand out from other earbuds in the same price range. They also support LDAC, Sony's proprietary codec for Hi-Res audio, and have a 'Game Mode,' which can help lower latency if you're gaming or streaming video.

These comfortable and well-built buds have a warm sound that you can customize using the app's graphic EQ and presets. Whether you're taking the train or working at a busy office, they can also block out an outstanding amount of ambient noise so that you can focus on your audio. With their ANC on, they have more than eight hours of continuous battery life, and their carrying case supplies an additional four charges, which is handy in a pinch. However, like many Bluetooth earbuds, they aren't ideal for phone calls. Their integrated mic's recording quality is poor, causing your voice to sound far away and sharp.

Consider the Nothing Ear (a) if sound quality is your top priority. These earbuds offer great build quality and a comfortable design. Out of the box, they have a balanced sound profile, with a flat mid-range that represents vocals especially well. The treble is also virtually flat up until it starts rolling off at the very top, and their bass, while boosted across the whole region, is also well-controlled. Kick drums have extra thump, but individual notes in basslines don't jump out of the mix unnaturally. They also have a graphic EQ and presets in their companion app if you prefer a different sound. They support the high-quality LDAC codec, but unlike their more expensive cousin, the Nothing Ear, they lack support for the lower latency LHDC codec.

However, while they have decent ANC, it isn't as good at blocking out the rumble of engines as the Anker Soundcore Space A40 Truly Wireless. Their continuous battery life of around five hours is also on the short side, so you'll have to top up the battery in the case during long workdays. Finally, like the Anker, their microphone isn't the best, so it's worth checking out the OnePlus Buds 3 below if call quality is important to you.

Consider the Skullcandy Push Active True Wireless if you're looking for earbuds to take to the gym. These comfortable buds have ear hooks, which help them stay in your ears during runs and workouts. They're well-built and are certified IP55 for resistance against dust and direct water exposure, so a run in the rain or on the beach won't hurt them. They have a longer continuous battery life of over nine hours, and their carrying case supplies more than three charges for top-ups when you need them.

These buds have a bass-rich sound to help keep you pumped up during difficult reps. If you prefer a different sound, they have a companion app with a graphic EQ and presets to help you fine-tune them. Unfortunately, they don't have ANC and struggle to block out bass-range noise like car engine rumbles, which can be annoying if you're jogging along a busy street. If you don't like the look and feel of ear hook headphones, try the Jabra Elite 3 True Wireless instead. They have a smaller earbud design and can even reduce more ambient sound. However, their in-ear fit isn't as stable.

The best Bluetooth earbuds under $100 for work we've tested are the OnePlus Buds 3. These earbuds have an integrated mic with much better recording quality than the Anker Soundcore Space A40 Truly Wireless, so your voice sounds clearer over the phone. They also have good noise-handling performance, so background conversations and clacking keyboards won't drown out your voice.

Out of the box, they have a bass-heavy sound profile that muddies mixes a bit. Still, they reproduce voices clearly, and you can adjust the sound with an in-app graphic EQ and presets. Their ANC feature does a good job of reducing office-type noise, so you can focus on your work, although they won't block out as much noise overall as the Anker. They also have a shorter continuous battery life of just under seven hours, so if you plan to use them all day, you'll need to pop them back in their case for a recharge at some point. If you're an Android user, the Samsung Galaxy Buds FE make a great alternative to the OnePlus earbuds because they have superior noise isolation and a better microphone. Unfortunately, their companion app only works with Android devices, and they don't support multi-device pairing, unlike the OnePlus, so you'll have to re-pair the buds whenever you switch between your phone and computer.

The Beats Flex Wireless are the best Bluetooth earbuds for iPhone under $100 that we've tested. These colorful neck cable earbuds have some Apple-centric features worth considering if you're an iPhone user. Unlike other picks on this list, they have a W1 chip to let you quickly pair them with iOS devices. They have low latency with iOS devices, so your audio and video will be in sync if you watch a video on your phone. Their comfortable and stable in-ear fit makes them suitable for jogs in the park.

Fans of EDM and hip-hop can especially enjoy their bass-heavy sound profile, which delivers rumble, punch, and boom to mixes. Their mid-range response is fairly flat, so vocals and lead instruments are still present in your mixes. However, their companion app has no sound customization features, so you can't adjust the sound to suit you. On the plus side, they last for roughly 11 hours of continuous playback time and fully charge up in just over an hour. Even though they don't have ANC, and they struggle to block out bass-range noise like bus engine rumbles, they do a better job when it comes to isolating you from ambient chatter.
