Headphone buying guide: wired or wireless, noise cancelling and the mic
Start with where you'll use them. A wired headset suits a desk and long calls, Bluetooth headphones suit a phone and travel, and noise cancelling is worth paying for on buses and in busy rooms.
1. Wired: 3.5mm or USB
A 3.5mm headset such as the Logitech H151 plugs into a computer, tablet or phone with a headphone jack, and has volume and mute controls on the cable (Logitech). Older desktops often have separate pink and green jacks, and a headset with one combined plug may need a splitter before its mic works there.
A USB headset avoids that. Logitech makes the Logitech H390 in USB-A and USB-C versions, with a mic that cuts background noise and in-line volume and mute (Logitech). The Rapoo H120 and H150S also connect by USB.
2. Bluetooth: battery, quick charge and two devices
JBL rates the JBL Tune 530BT at up to 76 hours, and says a 5-minute charge gives about 5 more hours. It pairs with two devices at once, such as your phone and laptop (JBL).
The JBL Tune 680NC also lists 76 hours, but that's with noise cancelling off. With it on, JBL says up to 50. The 680NC comes with a USB-C to 3.5mm cable, so you can keep listening wired when the battery runs out (JBL). JBL's 530BT page doesn't mention wired use.
3. Noise cancelling and codecs
UGREEN rates the hybrid ANC on the UGREEN HiTune Max5c at up to 43 dB, and gives 45 hours of playback with ANC on against 75 with it off. It lists Bluetooth 5.4 and the LDAC, AAC and SBC codecs (UGREEN).
A codec only helps if your phone supports it too. Sony, which developed LDAC, says it carries up to 990 kbps, about three times the data of standard Bluetooth audio, and it has contributed LDAC to the Android Open Source Project (Sony). On a phone without LDAC, the headphones use AAC or SBC instead. JBL's pages for the Tune 530BT and 680NC don't list codecs.
4. Pick the mic for how you talk
For online classes and office calls, a boom mic close to your mouth, as on the Logitech H111, H151 and H390, picks up less of the room than a mic built into the ear cup. Bluetooth headphones such as the SonicGear AirPhone range have built-in mics, which are fine for phone calls. Gaming headsets with detachable mics are covered on gaming headphone price in Nepal.

Headphone FAQ
Should I buy wired or Bluetooth headphones?
Wired for a desk, long calls or gaming, since there's no battery to charge and nothing to pair. Bluetooth for your phone and moving around. Some Bluetooth models, like the JBL Tune 680NC, also work with a cable.
Does noise cancelling reduce battery life?
Yes. JBL rates the Tune 680NC at 76 hours with ANC off and 50 with it on, and UGREEN's HiTune Max5c goes from 75 hours to 45.
Which headset is good for online classes and office calls?
A wired headset with a boom mic, such as the Logitech H111, H151 or H390. The H390 connects by USB, which helps if your laptop has no headphone jack; Logitech makes USB-A and USB-C versions, so check which one the product page shows.
What is LDAC, and do I need it?
LDAC is Sony's Bluetooth codec for higher-quality sound, at up to 990 kbps. It only works when both the phone and the headphones support it. If your phone doesn't list LDAC, it makes no difference.
Which headphone brands do you sell?
Advik, Enter, Fantech, Frontech, Havit, Intex, JBL, Logitech, MSI, Rapoo, SonicGear, UGREEN and ViewSonic. Every price on this page is our current website price.
