Ear Safety by Design: Say goodbye to the risks of ear infections common with traditional earphones. Ambi offers a healthier alternative with its unique clip-on design, ensuring sound quality without sacrificing ear health. Another aspect of low-quality ANC, especially in wireless headphones and earphones, is the difference in how music (or any audio) sounds when it is active. The ANC shouldn’t change how music sounds at all, but some models we test produce wildly different sound signatures when the ANC is on, such as more bass, more treble, and higher volumes. The effect (in most cases) isn't too disruptive, but quality ANC should have no impact on audio performance.

The ANC is effective at cutting out low-end rumbles and puts a decent dent in higher pitched frequencies, too, while the Ambient mode filters in enough external sound to let you hold a conversation. Chiefly, a new H2 chipset and “high-excursion” driver bring even crisper sound at extreme frequencies. The AirPods Pro also run for a further six hours with ANC enabled, while the noise-cancelling technology itself has been improved by the introduction of Adaptive Transparency, which instantly muffles nearby loud noises. The results are impressive – especially when paired with Apple’s Spatial Audio, as part of Apple’s most immersive audio experience to date.

Control customisation options are a little limited but the depressable controls themselves are responsive and straightforward to use. Battery life is a little undercooked too, with only 15hrs available from the buds and the case.

While other options on this list offer great battery life, listeners who engage in marathon audio sessions should consider the Creative Outlier Pro.

This will also help you stop bothering others with loud music. ANC used to be a luxury inclusion, but we’ve started to see the feature make its way into more affordable models. No wireless earbuds highlight this shift better than the Anker Soundcore Life P3, whose ANC performance is so impressive that it competes with many more expensive alternatives. This fidelity is aided by a generous selection of supported codecs, and the Pi7 are able to connect to three Bluetooth sources simultaneously, which is a big plus.
