      The Sennheiser Momentum Wireless headphones are among the most expensive in this roundup at $500. For that, customers will get a full headphone design, complete with earcups to keep the sound around the ears. The headphones connect to a device wirelessly, though they do come with a cable for those who want wired sound. The Momentum Wireless headphones also ship with an omnidirectional microphone so they can be used for calls.

The AirPods are designed to interact with Siri, as well as facilitate calls, thanks to their built-in microphone.
