AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation

I have both and I ll make it simple for you how much ANC do you need? If you are in flights, trains and want to block lot of noise go with pros if you are going to listen music, calls and at work take airpods 4 with ANC. They are much more comfortable than pros and can wear for a long time.

Apple AirPods 4 wit noise cancelling are great. So small and great sound.

They’re excellent! Much better than the AirPods 3 and the ANC is way better than I had expected. Of course the Pro’s can do ANC way better, but they are doing a good job. Plus less stressful for some ears.

Big budget - Sony WH1000XM(x) I still have my original MDR1000x and while the mic leaves a lot to be desired, they're amazing for music and blocking out the outside world. Find a new old stock on sale. Barring that, Bose, Sennheiser, pick your poison/price point, unless you love Apple, then the Airpods Pro2 are amazing for this if you like in-ear. Max if you hate everyone. Airpods4 with ANC are honestly fine for office environments if you have some music going, if you hate over/in ear stuff. If you're on a budget, the Anker ANC stuff is shockingly good for the price, both in sound quality and NC ability. Not 'no music on a plane of crying babies' good, but definitely good enough for an office.

The ANC is very impressive.  Very useful for those of us with sensory issues and reacting to the silicone tips. 

I just bought the AirPods 4 with noise cancellation. I have the previous generation of the Pros. The pros do not stay in my ears, very annoying. The 4’s are perfect! Don’t have to worry about them falling out and the noise cancellation is decent.

Apple airpods 4 ANC have been really nice, they have a nice shape for my ear, ones with the suction cup don't fit. The active noise cancellation is still really effective, I don't have to increase the volume at all when next to a busy road
