As convenient, practical, lightweight, and even surprisingly robust as Chromebooks and Chromeboxes are, not to mention cheap, they’re not typically known for speaker quality. In fact, that could be said for most laptops, which means you might need to invest in something that can upgrade that sound. Headphones and earbuds work well, but you might not want to spend hours with your ears covered— at least not at home or in your office.

Wireless earbuds aren’t just the smallest, most convenient way to listen to music on the go. They’re feature-filled devices that can fulfill multiple functions. While sound quality is usually the central factor, those who constantly take calls on the go, whether it’s for social reasons or work, need to prioritize the ability to make and take calls with a minimum of fuss before pressing that buy button.
