Headphones
Whether you're running, commuting or chilling out, listen to your favourite tunes with a superb set of headphones from the range below. Got a question? Get in touch or visit your nearest store for help from our friendly experts.

What's the difference between headphones and earphones?
There are two types of headphones, over- and on-ear. Over-ears have a large cup that surrounds the ear, while on-ear options sit comfortably on the outer part of your ear.
Earphones (or earbuds), on the other hand, are nimble options that fit right in-ear and are much easier to carry around.

What headphones and earphones are available?
Headphones and earphones are available in a range of styles. Here are some of the most popular.

Wired
Wired options plug directly into the device you're listening to. They can be used right away, don't need charging and won't die mid-song.

Wireless
Wireless offers total freedom while you listen. Simply connect your headphones to a device via Bluetooth and listen without wires getting tangled. The latest options work for hours before they need a recharge and are a great option for listening on the go.

Sports
Whether you're running or exercising in the gym, sports headphones offer great sound quality to motivate you. They're also lightweight enough not to weigh you down while you're pushing your workouts to the maximum.
Sports headphones are typically water-resistant, as well, to deal with any sweat or rain that they come in contact with.
The ergonomic design of earphones makes them a popular choice for athletes as they shouldn't slip out while exercising.

Noise-cancelling
For those who want to shut out the world for a moment, noise-cancelling headphones are a great choice. These cut out external noise to provide silence or let you listen to music uninterrupted.
You'll find that both earphones and over-ear headphones offer sound-eliminating functionality, giving you a choice of styles.

Gaming
Gaming headphones let you lock in while playing your favourite titles. These offer crisp and clear sound for full immersion, enhancing the experience and improving reactions to in-game challenges.
These headphones usually come with a microphone for online play. This lets you chat with friends while you play your favourite games.
