The days of having to spend triple digits to get a quality pair of wireless earbuds are long gone. While the latest from Apple, Sony, Bose and Beats may steal the most headlines, it’s more than possible to get something good enough without having to pay name-brand prices. But there’s still plenty of junk in the bargain bin, so you have to be careful if you’re shopping on a budget. If you’re looking to grab a new set for budget wireless earbuds under $100, we’ve done the research for you, digging through the market and testing more than a dozen standout contenders. You can find our top picks below. While none of them can top the absolute best wireless earbuds in terms of sound quality or noise cancellation, they can get surprisingly close for a fraction of the price. This is a busy market with new models arriving all the time, but for now, here are the best cheap wireless earbuds we’ve tested.





Honorable mentions


Recent updates
June 2024: We’ve checked this guide to ensure that all of our picks are still in stock. Accordingly, we’ve removed the Nothing Ear Stick as an honorable mention, as it no longer appears to be available — though it remains a decent option if you do see it and want an unsealed alternative to the Amazon Echo Buds. We’re also still in the process of testing several other sub-$100 wireless earbuds for a larger update that we hope to complete in the coming weeks. These pairs include the EarFun Free Pro 3, EarFun Air 2, OnePlus Buds 3, Samsung Galaxy Buds FE, Skullcandy Dime 3, Skullcandy Smokin’ Buds, JBL Vibe Buds, Tribit FlyBuds C1 Pro, Tribit MoveBuds H1, Baseus Eli Sport 1 and JLab JBuds ANC 3.

One pair that we aren’t likely to include as a pick, however, is the Beats Solo Buds, which cost $80 but are hampered by flat audio and a lacking feature set. See our review for more.
