You might be surprised to find out that not all wireless headphones are actually wireless; that is, except for the Onkyo W800BT which purport to the world's only truly wireless headphones. Connected to a device totally wirelessly via Bluetooth, the Onkyo W800BT headphones provide roughly 12 hours of music playback or 15 hours of talk time if you choose to use them as a wireless headset.
While other models of wireless headphones join the two earpieces together via a cord, the Onkyo W800BT headphones feature earbuds that stand totally separate meaning that you are totally unrestricted. Developed in partnership with audio group Gibson, the Onkyo W800BT are set to go on sale in November in Europe for around 299 Euros.
