Best Overall
Audio-Technica ATH-M50x
Audio-Technica’s ATH-M50x headphones have been out for a few years yet they still are easily one of the best wired headphones you could pick up till this date.
The headphones offer great sound quality and the sound profile is fairly balanced hence it isn’t one of those headphones that have overpowering bass. The 90° swiveling ear cups let you fold the headphones for easy portability. The headphones don’t have any major flaws to mention which is why we think you couldn’t go wrong with the ATH-M50x.

SoundMagic E10
The SoundMagic E10 is one of the best overall earphones to get since the sound quality offered by these earbuds are hard to beat even by earphones that are priced twice the price of the SoundMagic E10.
The earphones offer excellent and crisp audio with a decent amount of bass and detailed highs. The earphones are fairly durable as well and should last a long time.

Jaybird X4
The Jaybird X3’s were and still are one of the best in-ear Bluetooth earphones to take along for a run. The Jaybird X4’s offer the same great audio quality albeit slightly better and also a great build quality like the X3’s.
The earphones are sweat & waterproof as to be expected and offer a great audio listening experience while on the run.

The headphones would pair up with your Galaxy S10 super quick and do have CSR chips and Bluetooth 4.1 technology for efficient and effective pairing over Bluetooth.

Panasonic ErgoFit Earbud
The ErgoFit earphones from Panasonic are one of the best earphones you could get for the price. There’s almost no competition to these great pair of wired earphones.
The audio quality is pretty decent and you even get a microphone and call controller as well for hands-free use. The bass output is pretty great as well considering the price at which these buds are available. The only downside to these earphones is the build quality; however, we couldn’t ask for anything more at this price.
