Several Android models without headphone jacks were announced this year. Within the next few years, we might all be using Android phones without headphone jacks. While that doesn’t necessarily mean we have to dispose of our favorite wired headphones (adaptors are available for these phones), going wireless might be an easier option. All of the headphones below will work with your Android phone. So, without further ado, here are the best Bluetooth wireless headphones available now.

Sennheiser Momentum 2 Wireless Over-Ear Headphones
These are among the best-rated wireless headphones currently available. The price ranges from about $380-$500. They are available in an over-ear version. Some of the features include active noise-cancellation, 22-hour battery life, 2 built-in microphones, and a 16Hz to 22kHz frequency response. The over-ear style will also make these headphones more comfortable for extended periods of time than many on-ear styles.

BÖHM Bluetooth Wireless B-66 Headphones
These headphones are stylish and functional. They are available in black and silver or gold and tan, and offer a premium sound quality for the price. You can currently snag them for about $85 on Amazon. They offer noise cancellation, an inline microphone, and an 18-hour battery life.

Bose SoundLink Wireless Over-Ear Headphones
These are a cheaper alternative to the Bose QuietComfort 35 wireless headphones, at about $229. They are comfortable, with quality sound, and include up 15 hours of battery life and a microphone for phone calls. Worth noting: it is easy to switch between Bluetooth devices while staying connected to your phone.

Skullcandy Hesh 2 Unleashed Over-Ear Headphones
This option is under $100 and is available in a variety of colors. It includes up to 15 hours of battery life, an over-ear design for increased comfort, a remote and microphone, and sound isolation.

Bowers & Wilkins P7 Wireless Headphones
These headphones offer a stylish, modern design and quality sound. They are over-ear and about $400 to purchase. Other perks: the battery lasts for up to 17 hours, they can be folded for ease of travel, and you can charge them from your laptop. A cheaper alternative, however, is the P5 model, which offers a similar experience for half the price.

Make Your Wired Headphones Wireless
If you don’t want to buy new headphones, or you love a particular brand or model of wired headphones and can’t part with them, you can also make your current headphones wireless. A quick search for Bluetooth receiver on Amazon, NewEgg, or your favorite online tech retailer will bring back a number of results. Most are small enough to now fit in your pocket and come with a headphone port, which will pick up the Bluetooth signal from your phone and send the audio to your headphones. Just make sure you look for a model that can hold a charge; some need to be wired to a power source to operate.
