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.

JLab brings dual-driver, hi-res sound to its best sports earbuds
JLab Epic Sport ANC 3.

JLab has just taken the wraps off its latest sports-oriented wireless earbuds -- the JLab Epic Sport ANC 3 -- and this time, the company has partnered with balanced armature maker Knowles to give the buds even more "epic" sound. They cost $100 and will be available online in September and then in stores starting in October.

The Epic Sport ANC 3 inherit their crown from the Epic Air Sport ANC wireless earbuds, which have been a favorite go-to for sporty types who simply don't want to pay Beats Powerbeats Pro prices for an ultra-secure set of buds. We're not sure why JLab has chosen to drop the "Air," but the timing of these new sports buds couldn't be better: Beats just let it be known that the next-gen Powerbeats Pro will be arriving sometime in the new year.

Beyerdynamic launches new flagship wireless earbuds and headphones
Beyerdynamic AMIRON 300 and AVENTHO 300.

Beyerdynamic has revamped its top-of-the line wireless earbuds and wireless headphones with two new models, the Amiron 300 ($280) and Aventho 300 ($400). They'll be available in black or white color options when they go on sale in October.

The naming convention of the new models may confuse some long-time Beyerdynamic fans. Historically, the company has used the Amiron name to refer to its wired and wireless over-ear headphones, like the open-back Amiron Home and the wireless Amiron Wireless. However, the new Amiron 300 are the company's flagship wireless earbuds (the company's first wireless earbuds are the Free Byrd.)

Soundcore calls the new folding system FlexiCurve. In addition to the usual pivots and hinges we see on normal fold-up/fold-flat designs, the Space One Pro use a five-segmented headband, where each segment maintains a folding angle of 5 to 8 degrees, letting the headphones fold into an almost circular shape.
