Some of these symptoms can also be a result of bad tires, or even a bad CV joint, but a bad bearing will sound worse when it is put under load, like when the car is turning, so use this method to test and see if it is your bearing that's causing the noise:

Find a deserted stretch of road, on a day with good visibility.

Bring the vehicle up to speed. You can do this test at a variety of speeds but stay safe.

Once you are at speed, turn to the left and to the right and see if one direction causes the sound to increase or decrease in volume.

If the noise increases when you are turning right, the issue is with your left side, since a right turn places more load on the left side of the vehicle. If the noise increases when turning left, the issue is probably on the right.

Once you've done the road test and have an idea of where the sound is coming from, park your car, jack it up, and remove the tire. Don't forget to use jack stands! With the tire off, rotate the bearing to see if there is undue resistance or if you can feel or hear clicks, grinding or other sounds coming from the bearing. It should be smooth and quiet. You can also try to wiggle it back and forth and there shouldn't be any play in the bearing.
