10. Sennheiser Momentum Headphones

Sennheiser has quit a history in terms of audio equipment with a major focus on headphones and headsets. The Momentum model offers high sound fidelity that is difficult to match by its competitors. However, the headphones have one major drawback that places them on the 10th position. The extremely high price and the phones are not even cordless. They come equipped with a mic and the standard controls on the wire but the price is just too high. It is almost just as expensive as the tablet itself. On the other hand, the enthusiasts that are really demanding when it comes to sound fidelity might be tempted to buy a pair.

9. Yurbuds Inspire In-Ear Sport Earphones

Even if the Yurbuds Inspire are defined as sports earphones, they can be used anywhere and at anytime. It is more of a budget solution and probably just a minor upgrade over the standard Apple headset that is included with the iPad Air. The headphones can deliver a deeper base but the sound fidelity is mediocre. Even if the name suggests that they are sport earphones it is highly unlikely that someone would run with their iPad in their pocket but the Yurbuds can be used successfully to listen to music and place calls for the 4G models. They have a sleek design with tones of black and red and come with a carry pouch.

8. Urbanears Zinken Plus On-Ear DJ Headphones with Slussen Adapters

Basically, the headphones can be connected to the phone and an audio system at the same time, making it possible to listen to the music and play it directly from the phone trough external speakers.

7. SOL REPUBLIC X Tracks HD Headphones

The Tracks series manufactured by Sol Republic X has one element that makes them stand out from the rest. Their design is just unmatched and probably, they are the best looking headphones on the market.

6. Beats Solo HD On-Ear Headphones

 

The beats series have the main advantage of giving the customers multiple choices when it comes to colors. More options mean a bit more personality but the headphones fall a bit behind when it comes to sound fidelity. They are definitely an upgrade when compared with the standard Apple headphones but they get outperformed by other headsets that are being sold at the same price. The fact that they are wireless make them actually a rather tempting purchase. Combined with its sleek design and durability, the Solo HD model is probably the best option in this price range.

5. Beats Studio Over-Ear Headphones

Another good pick for the ones that do not like having a cable around their neck is the Beats Studio Over-Ear. It features the standard remote controls, comfortable ear cushions and a pleasant visual aspect. Compared with the Solo HD, the sound quality is a bit better. Also, the headphones work with AAA batteries which is a major plus as it makes it much easier to replace the batteries when they dry out rather than to charge the headphones. This feature is even more appreciated when access to a power source is not available.

The Klipsch Image S4i comes with all the features required to listen to music, place calls, watch videos and pretty much everything that requires a headset or headphones. Sound quality is also quite decent but the most important feature is the price. The only drawback is the fact that its design is not amazing but acceptable.

3. Bose SIE2i Sport Headphones

Bose has a long established reputation in the audio industry and the SIE2i does not disappoint. Voice and audio quality do justice to the brand. The price is right and the design is pleasant with its shades of bright blue, white and black. The remote control is discreetly placed on the wire but there one drawback. They can become a bit uncomfortable to wear over extended periods of time.

2. Avantree Hive Wireless Bluetooth Stereo Headphones

This headset has been around for years now and it is still being sold. It is one of the most affordable wireless headsets that is compatible with the iPad. For less than $50, Avantree managed to build a pair of headphones equipped with a decent mic that does not fall behind when it comes to audio quality. The Hive is worth every single cent.
