Top Rated Best Buy Black Friday Deals in July
Apple AirPods 2nd Generation
Apple’s AirPods are a favorite of the NBC Select staff, which is why we included them in our picks for the best wireless earbuds. I’ve used them before and can say that they have great sound quality and are easy to connect to your phone. They also connect to the Find My app, which helps you find them if you accidentally misplace them. You can also use them to make calls without having to hold your phone.

The Jabra Elite is also a staff favorite, and we included an earlier version of it in our roundup of the best wireless earbuds.

This newer version has an ANC mode and is compatible with iPhone and Android.
