These $20 Target Earbuds Are An Affordable (and Surprisingly Comfortable) Pickup

By now, we all have our go-to pair of earbuds, whether they’re AirPods , Beats or some other audio brand. But we’re making the cast for a pair of spare earbuds to have on hand, which come in handy for work, workouts, travel, or just to switch things up.

When it comes to a second pair of earbuds, we’ve been using these Heyday Wireless Earbuds from Target. At just $20, they deliver a ton of big features for their price point, and they’re surprisingly comfortable too — even for long periods of wear.

BLUETOOTH EARBUDS

Heyday True Wireless Earbuds

These wireless earbuds offer decent audio with easy pairing over Bluetooth, while the built-in microphone makes them great for taking calls. A single charge gets you up to five hours of playtime — get up to 20 hours with the included portable charging case. Touch controls on the earbuds let you easily scroll through songs, answer calls and more.

The best part about these Target earbuds are the flexible gummy ear tips, which mold to your ears for a comfortable and secure fit. In fact, we were able to take these earbuds out on a brisk run without having them fall off. Two sets of ear tips are included to help you find the best fit for your ear size.

The earbuds are also rated IPX4 to be water-resistant. We don’t advise dunking them in water, but a few light splashes and sweat won’t affect them at all.

These earbuds are from Heyday , a Target-exclusive electronics brand, that also makes headphones, speakers, phone accessories and more. At just $19.99, they’re a huge steal compared to other budget earbuds out there. In our testing, they outperform most AirPods alternatives too. Get the earbuds in four different colors: black, white, lavender and peach. See full details here .

ANC EARBUDS

Heyday Active Noise Canceling True Wireless Earbuds

You can also upgrade to Heyday’s noise-cancelling earbuds, which boast the same great features of the Bluetooth buds above but with active noise-cancelling technology to block out background noise when you listen to music or are on a call. At only $29.99 , the price point is hard to beat for a pair of well-rated ANC earbuds.

Both of these Target earbuds have been our go-to for trips where we don’t want to risk losing our pricier electronics. The pocket-sized case tucks easily into a jacket or bag, and the battery life is enough to get us through a short plane ride or day of sight-seeing.
