April 25, 2025

If you own a smartphone, chances are that you spend a good amount of time wearing headphones—bluetooth earbuds, wired earphones, or over-the-ear models. These audio accessories have become part of our daily routines, helping us stay connected, enjoy entertainment, and stay focused during workouts, work sessions, or relaxation. But as headphones become more common, health experts are sounding alarm bells: could your listening habits be damaging your hearing?

With a few smart adjustments, you can continue enjoying your audio without risking your hearing.
