Our tech writer Jordan McMahon knows his wireless earbuds. He’s tested countless pairs, and when it comes to the best under $100, he recommends the Nothing Ear (a) wireless earbuds. Their sound is nearly as good as more expensive pairs, including AirPods Pro, but they also have a corresponding app that allows adjustment to the noise cancellation and bass. The noise cancellation is one of McMahon’s favorite features — he barely heard the cars or passersby of downtown Portland with the setting turned on. The headphones can be charged inside the case, just like AirPods, and the controls are similar, too; music can be paused by squeezing the stems of the buds, and double-squeezing will skip tracks. Every control can be customized, too.
The Nothing Ear (a) wireless buds are already a great price, but ahead of Prime Day, they’re 33 percent off. At $53, they’re a no-brainer Father’s Day gift for techie dads — or non-techies who desperately need an upgrade to their old headphones. They come in black and white, too, both of which are also discounted. If you order today, they’ll arrive by Friday.
