För första gången så har nu trådlösa hörlurar passerat hörlurar med sladd och det kanske har med alla rykten runt Apples nya iPhone att göra, vem vet.
Apple ryktas ju som bekant att komma att plocka bort hörlursuttaget, det traditionella, i nya iPhone 7 till förmån för Lightning-kontakt eller just trådlöst. I topp ligger Apples egna Beats-hörlurar.
During the first six months of the year, Bluetooth models accounted for 54 percent of dollar sales and 17 percent of unit sales, NPD said. Whereas the U.S. headphone market as a whole grew dollar sales 7 percent year-over-year, Bluetooth figures surged 42 percent.
Together, Beats and second-place LG controlled 65 percent of dollar sales in the first half of 2016. Following behind in the top five were Bose, Jaybird, and Skullcandy.
NPD linked the growth of the Bluetooth market to promotions and new products, as well as a lower average sales price, down 5 percent. 30 percent of headphones sold cost $50 or less, versus just 16 percent in 2015.
