Premium wireless headphones are all about delivering great sound on the go, but which of these four pairs is right for you?
-

Whether its escapism from your morning commute or background music for your stroll in the park, wireless headphones allow us to spend quality time with our favourite tunes.
Donning a pair has become an important part of our daily ritual, especially now that most of us walk around with our music collection within touching distance on our smartphones (or, in some instances, a dedicated portable music player).
With phones boasting bigger storage than ever, the majority of music-streaming services offering CD-quality and hi-res audio files and Bluetooth technology evolving and supporting higher-quality wireless transmission, now is a great time to be able to experience convenience but also combine that with real quality.
