Editor's note
These are my pick for best overall: they block out nearly everything while staying comfortable and sounding good. Hard to argue with quiet that personal.
Why we picked it
Best for: Flights and open offices, where the last few decibels of quiet are the actual purchase.
CustomTune measures your ear canal on every insertion and adapts the cancellation to the seal it got. That is why Bose still leads on depth.
What we like
- + CustomTune adapts cancellation to the seal it measures on every insertion, which is what closes the gap to the specification
- + ActiveSense clamps sudden loud noise so transparency mode stays usable next to traffic
- + Cancellation depth is deep enough to change what an aircraft cabin sounds like, not just quieten it
- + Immersive Audio widens the stage convincingly on film and television
Watch outs
- - Rated at up to six hours, the shortest here, and Immersive Audio cuts it further
- - IPX4 covers sweat and rain but not dust, so it is the worst of the three in a gym bag
- - Fit depends on getting both the tip and the stability band right, which takes several attempts
- - Immersive Audio is processing you either commit to or disable, and it is not neutral on music
- - The case is large in a pocket next to the AirPods case, which is the trade for the stability bands fitting inside it
