Best Earbuds With Microphone Under $20 in 2020

They handle calls just fine, fit better than average, and aren't terrible to wear. Best of all, they sound awesome. Their "reflective" design points the drivers away from the ears so the sound reflects back. This keeps your ears from ringing or hurting, even with the enhanced bass response these buds deliver. You need to hear it to believe it.

These Bluetooth sports headphones check the right boxes if you need a set under $20 with a microphone. Boasting nine-hour battery life and an IPX5 water-resistance rating, these headphones are perfect for someone who is frugal, needs to be wire-free, and likes a good workout.

Seeing a pair of USB-C earbuds with a mic and a price under $20 is a surprise, but seeing a pair as nifty and versatile as the HTC Usonic is even more of a surprise.

The 1MORE Piston Earphones are a fantastic choice thanks to the 45-degree angled design, which allows the earbuds to sit better in your ear canal. The in-line mic makes it easy to chat on the phone without much background noise and includes playback controls if you're listening to some tunes.

Want cheap earbuds that you can wear all day? The Panasonic ErgoFit earbuds are great! The sound is decent for music or phone calls, and they aren't the prettiest things to look at. Luckily, whatever the tips are made of is awesome because they fit inside your ear without bugging you along the way.

Although these don't sport a 45-degree angle, the Skullcandy Ink'd Plus promise a noise-isolating fit in part due to the earbud tips themselves. These come in seven different colors to choose from, and you get two extra sets of earbud tips to find your best fit. Skullcandy also offers a two-year warranty if something goes awry.

Samsung's Active InEar Headphones used to be included with certain Samsung smartphones, but now you can get them alone.

Edifier prides itself on providing a great audio experience on a budget and that is further proven by the Edifier P210 headphones. They offer Hi-Fi sound without breaking the bank, along with an inline microphone and music controller, and a one-year warranty in case you need to replace them.
