How to read the score
We only use data verified against a source (official specs, price lists, public reviews) and current local prices. Compares earbud battery life per charge and weight per earbud as stated by manufacturers, and the price read on the official store. Battery test conditions can differ between brands. Sound quality, noise cancelling and fit are not measured. The score out of 100 shows how close each product comes to the best one compared, criterion by criterion: 100 means the best, 80 means 80% of the best. Criteria and weights: Earbud battery life per charge (hours) (35%), Weight per earbud (g) (20%), Observed price (45%). Missing data is never counted as zero. No manufacturer pays to change the results.
