6 Best Ear Wireless Earbuds Under £60
The market for headphones is huge. Both over the ear headphones and earbuds are incredibly popular and there has never been more choice available. This review we are looking at cheap truly wireless earbuds. When we say cheap, we mean that all of them are under £70, and all offer good quality for that price. What makes them this cheap, is that they are either unbranded or from brands that you most likely will not have heard of. Whilst wireless earbuds can cost hundreds of pounds, we believe that buying one of the below will not leave you dissatisfied.
1.Non Branded Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds
At a Glance
- Brand: N/A
- Model Number: TWS-i11
- Colour: Black / Purple
- Bluetooth Version: 5.0
- Music Play Time: 3-4 hours
- Warranty: 180 days
Our Outline
These non branded headphones provide the range of functions and features required on all these types of devices and are waterproof to IPX5 (this only means they can withstand droplets of water). With wide compatibility for devices, these do everything they need to.
Whilst the lack of brand may be seen as a negative point, it is the main feature that keeps these bluetooth earbuds at a low price point, and at only £45.99, these provide solid performance.
Touch Button Multiple Function
These non branded wireless earbuds, offer a touch button system that makes for easy control of your mobile phone. A single touch will play your music, whilst a double touch of the right earbud will turn up the volume and the left down the volume. A longer touch of 3 seconds will allow you to skip forwards or backwards in your song list. A quick touch on the left or right earbud 3 times continuously will wake up the phone assistant, and a single touch will allow you to answer calls. The system is well designed and very easy to use once you are used to it.
Portable Charging Case
Another common feature with wireless earbuds is the portable charging case. The premise being that you charge the case and it in turn can charge the earbuds when you are not using them. These non branded earbuds come with a portable charging case that is sleek in design complete with a carrying handle and will allow for up to 3-4 hours of playtime with your earbuds.
Design and Sound Quality
The overall design of the earbuds is good. They are a little more prominent than some others in this review once in your ear, but this also helps with ensuring that they do not fall out. They are comfortable to wear for extended periods of time and the sound quality that they give out is high for a pair of earbuds at this price level.
Price
At only £45.99 on Amazon, these are a real bargain for anyone looking for a pair of wireless earbuds for everyday use, that provide high quality sound. Whilst they are not as good as some of the branded, much more expensive wireless earbuds, they do provide excellent value for money.
- Stylish design
- Intuitive touch control system
- Slimline charging case
- Excellent price point
- Non branded which may put off some people
Overall we believe that these non-branded wireless earbuds provide outstanding performance and looks for the money. The one touch system for controlling these is easy to use and works well with mobile phones. The charging case provides enough power so that when out and about your earbuds will have enough power to last a long time.

Russell Hobbs are a very well known brand within the toaster market. With a variety of toasters on the market, they are known for producing machines of quality, style at reasonable price points. With the legacy toaster, they have created a vintage style model, that offers modern convenience.
Our Outline
Our second set for review are also non branded, but offer a quality experience with easy set up and good performance. As seen with the other set, they offer the same range of features although no information is provided on whether they are IPX5. Offering wide compatability and quick connect, these again offer performance at a low price of £33.69.
Touch Button Multiple Function
These pair of non branded wireless earbuds offer single touch control in a similar manner to the previous pair reviewed. The one touch can control the functions of pairing, phone and music operation through a series of short, long or multiple touches. This again is a simple system to operate and utilise.
Portable Charging Case
This phone again comes with a portable charging case although offering a slightly different design which is less sleek. The case works well ensuring that your earbuds are charging when you are not using them, although we did not like the design of this case as much as the previous model.
Design and Sound Quality
The overall design of the earbuds is very similar to the previous model, meaning that may protrude from your ears a little more than you would like. They are however comfortable to wear for extended use. The sound quality again shows good performance for a pair of earbuds at this price point. These earbuds can also operate independently of each other. The pairing technology in these devices makes for seamless pairing both with each other and with your phone.
Price
At only £33.69 on Amazon, these are even cheaper than the previous model reviewed, offering similar features and performance, also making these excellent value for money. We did like the design of the charging case on the previous model, however this is a small detail that will be down to personal choice.
- Intuitive to use with one touch control system
- Good range of features and functions
- Good sound quality
- Excellent price point
- Non branded which may put off some people
Overall this pair of non branded headphones come highly recommended with many good reviews on Amazon. Although they do have their quibbles, at under £35 these can be overlooked for the technology that you are getting and the performance that they give. A real bargain for the price, we can highly recommend these.
3.Treblab X2 Wireless Earbuds
At a Glance
- Brand: Treblab
- Model Number: X2
- Colour: Black / White
- Bluetooth Version: 4.2
- Music Play Time: Upto 5 hours
- Warranty: 12 months
Our Outline
This is our first set of branded earbuds, however as with the others this is probable not a brand with which you are familiar. These buds are waterproof to IPX4, and with the bluetooth connectivity version only at 4.2, this pair of of wireless earbuds are less developed in these two areas than some of the previous models reviewed. These buds still offer wide compatibility and great performance but at the higher price of £59.97.
Sound and Interface
With speakers that are made from beryllium the sound provides by these wireless earbuds is very high and a step up from the previous two models reviewed. The earbuds have a touch based system that operates in a similar manner to the previous models, offering long and short presses to control the different commands.
Portable Charging Case
The portable charging case is designed to mould around the wireless ear buds, and whilst this is effective, it does not necessarily look as sleek as some other charging cases. Without having a lid, there is also the possibility of the ear buds getting damaged accidentally, which is not as likely on the two previous designs.
Design and Sound Quality
The design of these earbuds is very similar in style to those of Apple, with an earbud and stem. Whether this type of design is for you will be very individual, although we prefer designs without the stem. Available in two colour options, the earbuds also include ‘earfins’ that help to keep the earbuds in your ear no matter what you are doing. This design is a big help and helps to solve one of the issues with wireless earbuds.
Price
At £59.97 on Amazon, these are one of the more expensive pairs within our review. For this extra money, you get slightly better quality in sound and a longer battery life, although with less up to date software and technology in some areas.
- Good quality sound
- Ear fins to help keep the buds in your ear
- Long battery playtime
- IPX4 waterproof
- Higher price point that other earbuds reviewed
Whilst the Treblab X2’s are a good pair of earbuds, producing high quality sound and with a long battery life, we did not feel that they warranted the higher price than other models reviewed. The design of buds is good with the earfins if you are a fan of the stork style design, however the charging case is lacks the sleekness of other models.
4. Saburona Bluetooth Earbuds
At a Glance
- Brand: Saburona
- Model Number: 18TWS
- Colour: White
- Bluetooth Version: 4.2
- Music Play Time: 3 – 4 hours
- Warranty: Yes but not known for how long
Our Outline
The Saburona Bluetooth earbuds may well remind you of another set of earbuds on the market, in that their design in very similar to apples. These should however not be confused with being apple headphones as they do not possess the same level of technology within them. Like the others, they offer wide compatibility although the bluetooth version is 4.2. At only £39.99 these are also one of the cheapest options in our review.
Sound and Interface
The interface on these earbuds are easy to use with multifunctional buttons on each of the earbuds that let you control the functions of your phone. The system, as with the others uses a combination of different types of presses to distinguish between the command required. The sound quality of these headphones is good especially for the price point, and this has been commented on many times from the reviews on Amazon.
Portable Charging Case
This portable charging case is completely white, giving it a very modern look. The earbuds fit well inside the case and at just 6.5cm tall and 5.5cm wide, they don’t take up much space. This charging case extends the playtime for 3-4 hours.
Design
There is on getting away from the design of these earbuds, and depending upon whether you like the apple design of their earphones will dictate whether you like these. The earbuds remain comfortable to wear for extended periods of time, although can occasionally come loose if you are wearing them for exercise.
Price
At £39.99 on Amazon, these are a cheap pair of wireless earbuds and for that price you are getting a pair that has good sound quality and all of the operations that you would expect from a pair of wireless earbuds.
- Good quality sound
- Sleek design for both the earbuds and charging case
- Low price point
- Charging case can recharge earbuds up to 3 times
- Earbuds can slip out when exercising
The Saburona wireless earbuds are sleek and work well. They produce a high quality design with an interface that is easy to use. At £39.99 they are one of the cheaper models in our review and your choice to buy them will come down to whether you enjoy the design or not. We personally are not a fan of stalk style earbuds, however if they appeal to you, then these are a good option to go for.
5.SAVFY True Wireless Earbuds
At a Glance
- Brand: SAVFY
- Model Number:
- Colour: Blue / Grey
- Bluetooth Version: 4.1
- Music Play Time: 2 – 3 hours
- Warranty: Not known
Our Outline
The SAVFY true wireless earbuds immediately have a look of quality, both from the earbud design as well as the charging case. Although only running bluetooth version 4.1, they still have very wide compatibility and are also IPX5 waterproof. At £52.99 these are some of the more expensive wireless earbuds that we are reviewing in this blogpost.
Sound and Interface
As with the other models, these wireless earbuds can be paired together or can work individually. They incorporate a touch system for the interface, which again employs a series of long and short touches to operate the functions of the phone. This system is easy to use and operate and works smoothly with your phone. The sound quality of these wireless earbuds is excellent, especially given their size and their price point.
Portable Charging Case
We found the portable charging case to be the best in our review. The main reason for this is the design of the case which uses magnetism to connect and keep the earbuds in place. This has produced a very stylish look that exudes quality making an attractive gift for anyone. The charging case will charge up the earbuds between 2 and 3 times.
Design
The design of the earbuds is very good. At only 2.1cm these fit well in your ear and are very discreet. The earbuds are comfortable even for extended periods of time whilst also being easy to operate. The design of the charging case adds to the overall effect, producing a result of high quality.
Price
At £52.99 on Amazon, these are one of the more expensive pairs that we are reviewing. The money that you pay can be seen in the overall design. These wireless earbuds offer the same range of features and functions as the others.
- Outstanding design
- High quality sound
- Easy to use interface
- Discreet when using
- One of the pricier models that we are reviewing
The SAVFY headphones offer good performance, however it is the design of these wireless earbuds that you really find the quality. With magnetic clipping on the charging case, and the small size of the earbuds, the overall design makes these worth the extra money. There are other earbuds within our review that have slightly better performance, however none match the quality design of these.
6. Arbily True Wireless Earbuds
At a Glance
- Brand: Arbily
- Model Number:
- Colour: Silver / Twilight
- Bluetooth Version: 4.2
- Music Play Time: 2 – 3 hours
- Warranty: Lifetime
Our Outline
Our final review in this blog post is for the Arbily True wireless earbuds. These run bluetooth version 4.2 making them widely compatible. At £45.99 these are at the mid price point level in our review, and they offer similar features and functions to the other models. The design of the Arbily’s resembles a mix of several of the others within our review.
Sound and Interface
With a noise cancelling mode, these wireless earbuds are capable of block out a lot of surrounding sound, although at this low price, not all of it. The earbuds can work either in paired more or individually depending upon your needs. The interface utilises a similar touch based system as with the other models, which allows music to be played and elements of the phone to be controlled.
Portable Charging Case
The portable charging case is slim in design, and has an elongated look which slides back allowing for the wireless earpods to be inserted and charged. This is a sleek and high end look, and gives the impression of a pair of earbuds that are much more expensive. The charging case will allow the earbuds to be charged approximately twice.
Design
The earbuds have an inner and an out earpiece. This allows for a comfortable and stable fit within your ear, meaning that they are suitable for wearing for extended periods and for exercise. The band on the outer earpiece gives the earbuds a distinctive look and this is a nice touch on the design.
Price
At £45.99 on Amazon, these at the medium price point for those that we are reviewing within this blog. For this you get the same features as in the other models, and design that gives a professional and stylish appearance. Although not as sleek as the SAVFY’s, these are still a quality pair of wireless earbuds.
- Sleek design
- Easy to use interface
- Lifetime guarantee
- Good sound quality
- Similar design offered at lower price point
The Arbily wireless earbuds provide good design and quality at an affordable price. The colour schemes help them to stand out, especially the twilight option. The charging case is sleek and slender, and the earbuds will remain secure when exercising. Overall these are a good pair of earbuds, however to not offer any great advantage over pairs at lower prices.
Our winning choice for this review are the non branded wireless earbuds from our second review. These are also the Amazon choice, and at only £33.69 they are a real bargain. A solid performance combined with a pair of earbuds that are easy to wear and a stlish charging case. A great cheap option in this category.
