If we wanted to buy in-ear headphones for under $100, we'd get the Marshall Mode. After researching a few hundred headphones in this price range and testing 54 with our expert audio panel, we're confident that the Marshall Mode is your best bet in this price range and a serious upgrade from the earbuds that came with your phone. Not only did the headphones fit everyone (many others didn't), they cost less and sound better than much of their competition. Just be sure to choose the remote option that matches your device when you add them to your cart.
