The design is the next most important thing when buying new true wireless earbuds. When it comes to a product that is going to continuously hang out of your ears for presumably a long amount of time at a stretch, it is crucial that you get a design that you’re comfortable wearing and the right fit.
If the buds are too big, they might be painful for you to wear. If they’re too small, they may fall out. This is especially important with plastic earbuds like the Apple AirPods or the OnePlus Buds, which do not feature silicone tips. If you’re unsure about your fit, it is best to look for options that come with multiple sizes of replaceable ear tips.
If you plan on using your earbuds for the gym or during runs, you’re also better off with buds that have extra mechanisms to stay snug. Check out options like the Amazfit PowerBuds, which have optional ear hooks.
