Ahead of CES 2024, Raycon, the audio brand that gets a lot of love from social media influencers, has created a new tier for its flagship Everyday lineup of wireless earbuds and headphones: the Everyday Pro.

Both the Everyday Earbuds Pro and the Everyday Headphones Pro are priced at $149 and come in three color choices: white, black, or blue. You’ll be able to buy them at the end of January.

The Everyday Earbuds Pro are a significant departure from Raycon’s previous models from a design point of view. Instead of the usual stemless shape, the Everyday Earbuds Pro adopt a small stem, and Raycon says that their shape is based on international ear scans for “increased comfort for endless listening sessions.” To help with getting a better fit, the Earbuds Pro includes five sets of gel eartips and three memory foam eartips.

Also new for the Everyday Earbuds Pro is the availability of active noise cancellation (ANC), support for Bluetooth Multipoint, and a six-mic array. Raycon claims that your voice will be “glass clear” when using the buds for calls, but that should probably be taken with skepticism– we’ve been disappointed by Raycon’s call quality in the past.

The case charges wirelessly or via USB-C, and Raycon claims you’ll get 10 hours of playtime per charge, with 40 hours total when you include the case.

The Everyday Headphones Pro have a new design that swaps the traditional forked earcup pivot for a sleeker, single pivot connection at the top of the earcups, mirroring the approach taken by Sony on its WH-1000XM5 wireless headphones.

The headphones offer more battery life (up to 60 hours with ANC off versus 40 hours for the Everyday Headphones) and support for Bluetooth Multipoint. Like the Everyday Earbuds Pro, the headphones are compatible with voice assistants, but triggering the feature requires a somewhat awkward simultaneous press of the ANC button and the volume + button for 2 seconds.

Audio-Technica’s latest earbuds snap together to save power
Audio-Technica ATH-CKS50TW2.

Audio-Technica's (A-T) presence at CES 2025 is pretty low-key this year, but it does have one clever trick up its sleeve when it comes to wireless earbuds: "Magnetic Switch" technology. The company's new ATH-CKS50TW2 (what a mouthful) take 2022's superb mega-bass ATH-CKS50TW earbuds and reimagine them with a new shape, a new charging case, and cool new feature -- if you don't have the charging case with you, just bring the two buds near each other and their embedded magnets will hold them together while powering them down. You can buy them right now for $149.

Not that you'll likely have to worry much about running out of power. Improving on their predecessor's already mammoth 20-hour-per-charge capacity, the CKS50TW2 get a claimed 25 hours per charge, with an additional 40 hours standing by in the charging case. That's totally nuts. To put it in perspective, the ATH-CKS50TW2 can last as long on a single charge as the Apple AirPods Pro 2 can last when you include their charging case's supply.

JLab Epic Lux Lab Edition headphones.

For years, JLab has been synonymous with budget-friendly audio, but lately, it's been making inroads into the mid-to-high-end market. The latest product in that effort was revealed at CES 2025: the Epic Lux Lab Edition wireless noise-canceling headphones, which have a sleek design that reminds me of luxury models from Bowers & Wilkins, Sennheiser, and Sony. Still, in keeping with JLab's focus on accessible pricing, these new cans are priced at just $200 and will be available for preorder starting January 6, with shipping expected to begin on January 30.

Many of the Epic Lux Lab Edition features and specifications will feel familiar to those who keep an eye on the wireless headphone space, e.g.: 32mm dynamic drivers, spatial audio with head tracking, Bluetooth Multipoint, Google Fast Pair, and Find My Device functionality. They're also the first JLab headphones to offer adaptive noise canceling and transparency modes.
