If you’re looking for a terrific pair of budget-friendly wireless earbuds, Anker’s Soundcore Liberty Air 2 are definitely one to consider. Even though their tap controls can be finicky, we liked their design and long stems, which give them excellent microphone performance. Their sound quality is also good for the price, as is their battery life. In fact, we found these buds lasted up to seven hours on a single charge, or 28 hours with the included charging case. Normally $79.99, you can currently buy them in either black or white for just $22.94 on Amazon when you clip the on-page 15 percent off coupon.
