How we choose
  • The picks combine a high rating and a price in line with the list: each one fits a way of spending, a use, or the brand that shows up most. The pros and cons come from each model’s spec sheet.
  • Stores: Amazon. We include stores we read every day through an open source or an affiliate program: the Radar collection, the Amazon catalog and the factory price database. A store that failed to load today is left out.
  • The same model in two stores is only merged with a catalog code, GTIN or the manufacturer’s full code. When in doubt, only one store is kept. A price far from the collected one (below 60% or above 150%) is left out.
  • Amazon appears without a price, only with the link: we don’t read Amazon prices in bulk.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Apple cost today?

In the Nov 6, 2026 catalog, the median price of the brand’s 5 models is $265, and prices range from $129 to $508. The final price is the one at the store.

Is the score of headphones Apple higher or lower than the catalog’s?

The Nov 6, 2026 catalog doesn’t have enough spec sheet data on the brand’s headphones to calculate a median score.

How does the Radar choose the headphones on the "best score for the price" line?

From cheapest to most expensive, the headphone that has a higher spec score than all the cheaper ones in the segment makes the line. Anything that costs more and has an equal or lower score is left out. The line doesn’t say which headphone to buy: it only shows which ones don’t lose on both score and price at once.

How often does this page change?
