What are your favourite noise-cancelling headphones?

Bose qc 45 over ear and sometimes (when my hair is wet or I want to move my head more freely) bose qc ultra earbuds! I have them in this dreamy blue color, moonstone, and named them my moonicorns. Wish I knew how to remove the logo from the qc 45 though.

I don't know what earbuds to get!!!

Yes. I’ve owned all Bose qc models and daily headphones now. The batteries just don’t last. Keep the QCUE as backup. But ultras if you must.

The AirPod 2 you’re referring to have excellent ANC - My Bose QC Ultra earbuds still prove better ANC than the Apple but the Apple is an excellent earbud option however I don’t use earbuds often - only in specific cases when size is a factor.. My QuietComfort Ultras over ear is truly the best way to
