The AirPods are practical and very popular - but there are a few worthy alternatives out there. We would now like to take a closer look at what they are and what functions they have.
If you have an iPhone and like to use the "Hey Siri" function, you should definitely go for the AirPods. However, there are many users who place more value on better sound quality - noise cancellation is also a big issue here. The demand for AirPods alternatives is therefore higher than many people think. However, there are a few important points to consider - unlike Android users, iPhone users cannot use every product perfectly.
Samsung Galaxy Buds
The new earbuds from Samsung are very similar to the Apple AirPods. In addition to the design, the functionality is also very similar to the AirPods. The Samsung Galaxy Buds were only recently released and are already being touted as the best alternative to the AirPods. They are equipped with Bluetooth 5.0 and the charging case can be charged wirelessly. By far the best feature of the Samsung Galaxy Buds is the battery life: This allows for constant playback of 6.53 hours on a single charge. When the battery is empty, 15 minutes in the charging case provides an additional 1.7 hours of listening time. Since they support the AAC format, these earbuds are also particularly attractive for iPhone users. The Samsung Buds also boast very good sound quality.

We can all agree: wireless headphones can't keep up with wired alternatives - at least not yet. Tip: If you're an iPhone user looking for AirPods alternatives, you should always look for products with AAC support. For Android users, however, aptX support is an important feature.
Sony WF-SP700N
Sony has already further developed its noise cancellation technology. The Sony WF-SP700N earphones are waterproof, comfortable and stable. The plugs are also highly recommended for athletes. Commuters should also be very satisfied due to the good noise cancellation - but this cannot keep up with over-ear headphones. Sony's earphones also have AAC support, of course. The Sony WF-SP700N are the best choice among the AirPods alternatives when it comes to noise cancellation. Incidentally, the plugs are available in four different colors.

Mobvoi TicPods Free
The Mobvoi TicPods Free are the most similar to the AirPods. They also support the AAC format. This model also has a noise cancellation function - but the Sony model beats the Kickstarter. The plugs are said to have a slightly exaggerated bass function, but overall have good sound quality.

Master & Dynamic MW07
Master & Dynamic is a New York-based premium audio company. The Master & Dynamic MW07 are currently the most expensive AirPods alternative due to their design. They showcase artfully handcrafted acetate and a charging case made of hand-polished stainless steel. These wireless earphones contain technically sophisticated components, in particular specially made 10 mm beryllium drivers, advanced antenna technology and optical sensors that can detect when they are put in the ear and automatically start or pause playback through the earphones. They are a real eye-catcher. In addition to the elegant design, the plugs are waterproof and boast pleasant functionality. The battery life, on the other hand, is a little more modest - it allows for constant playback of 3.5 hours. The included charging case can charge the plugs up to three times. The Master & Dynamic MW07 is available in eight different versions - the price depends on the design selected.

Finally, we would like to mention again - all the earplugs we have presented are compatible with iPhones - the market offers many more products. However, these four models are among the best - this is shown by various tests. If you still prefer AirPods, you can either buy them directly from Apple or via the official Apple Shop at Amazon order directly.
