These Wireless Earbuds Last 50 Hours and are Way Cheaper than AirPods
|You can’t ride the subway, walk to your local coffee shop or go outside to grab the mail without seeing someone wearing a pair of AirPods. An analyst predicts that Apple will ship 50 to 55million pairs of its earbuds this year, between 70 to 80 million units in 2020, and then 100 to 110 million units in the year 2021. Crazy, right?
Because of its ubiquity, a lot of people assumes that AirPods are the best among wireless earbud option in the market. But that’s not necessarily true. The Brio True Wireless Earbud boast of similar advanced features, many more hours of listening time, and even a better deal price point.

Each of its pair features the up-to-date Bluetooth 5.0 technology that will never lag or drops your audio — AirPods still uses the 4.2 version for reference — and offers up to a whopping 50 hours of steady listening when using their compact, portable charging case. Meanwhile, Apple’s version can only lasts for about 24 hours using its charging case. We’re not insinuating that the Brios are perfect, but hey — they seem to come pretty close to perfection, don’t they?
