Our verdict

The choice for anyone who buys headphones to listen rather than to silence a plane. Sound quality is the best in this ranking and the battery roughly doubles the flagships, for around $150 less. What you give up is the noise cancelling — reviewers disagree on how much, but nobody claims it matches Bose or Sony. If ANC is the reason you are shopping, this is not the pair.

Strengths and limitations

Pros

  • 60 hours rated with ANC on — roughly double the Sony and Bose in this ranking
  • The most natural, best-imaged sound of any headphone here, per multiple reviewers
  • Around $150 cheaper than the Sony and Bose flagships it competes with

Cons

  • Noise cancelling clearly trails Sony and Bose, especially on low-frequency noise
  • Cups do not fold, and the case is bulkier than its rivals'
  • No LDAC — it supports aptX Adaptive and AAC instead
  • Call quality is only adequate, and independent testing found it struggles to isolate your voice in noisy environments
