Our Verdict

XFYRO xS2 Truly Wireless

Altec Lansing True Evo Truly Wireless

The XFYRO xS2 Truly Wireless are better truly wireless headphones than the Altec Lansing True Evo. The XFYRO are a bit more versatile thanks to their better isolation performance, which can be useful while commuting and at the office. The XFYRO also have a better wireless range and, for about the same battery life, take less time to charge. On the other hand, the Altec feel better-built, and some may prefer a design with stability fins for sports.
