Now, we’re not saying that the Philips Upbeat will rival the most expensive true wireless earbuds out there but they’re still fantastic value. They promise punchy bass and great sound, along with a mono mode for those times when you need to be able to hear out of one ear. Passive noise isolation goes some way to ensuring you get better sounds at lower volumes without hearing too much around you.

Battery life is fairly respectable with up to three hours on one charge with the portable charging case offering you another nine hours of juice so you won’t have to worry about recharging too often. Thanks to the charging case, you don’t have to worry about turning the Philips Upbeat true wireless earbuds on or off either with an auto-on facility courtesy of every time you take them out of their case.

The earphones come with soft rubberized wingtips so they’re a comfortable and snug fit in your ears with a choice of different ear-tips if you need to tweak anything. There’s also a built-in mic so you can easily make or receive calls while these are in your ears. There’s even voice assistant support with a quick double button-press activating your phone’s voice assistant.

Ordinarily priced at $60, you can buy the Philips Upbeat True Wireless for only $30 at Newegg right now. That’s a particularly great price if you’re someone who’s prone to misplacing wireless earphones or if you’re not sure if the technology is for you. Be quick though – this offer ends on Monday and stock is limited.

Nothing Ear (a) deal

Budget wireless earbuds are the most popular kind of wearable tech in the market. But just like smartphones, a lot of these hearables basically look quite similar to one another. Nothing has actively worked on avoiding that trap, and its next affordable earbuds are expected to keep the track going.

The company has just confirmed that Nothing Ear (3a) will launch on July 7 at 11:00 BST, sharing the stage with the upcoming Nothing Phone (4b). The teaser does not reveal the full spec sheet yet, but it does show the earbuds in four colors: White, Black, Yellow, and Pink. Nothing’s audio lineup has always leaned on transparent styling and playful color choices to stand out in a sea of AirPods clones.

Sony’s WH-1000XM6 headphones just became more tempting for gamers who hate gaming headsets
The new update adds Bluetooth LE Audio's Gaming Audio Profile, giving Sony's premium noise-canceling cans a lower-latency trick for compatible gaming devices.
Sony WH-1000XM6.

Sony's WH-1000XM6 gaming mode is rolling out through firmware version 3.1.5, adding support for Bluetooth LE Audio's Gaming Audio Profile, or GMAP. The same update also includes general performance improvements, so WH-1000XM6 owners have a real reason to open the Sony Sound Connect app.

It's a handy upgrade for headphones built more for commutes or office silence than late-night matches. Bluetooth lag can make games feel faintly wrong, especially when a footstep or button press lands a fraction too late.

Availability is still the problem. Amazon lists the monitor as temporarily out of stock, and Acer has previously pointed to a Q4 North America launch window instead of a firm release date.
