Honestly? Even though I haven’t tried any other wireless headphones? AirPods Pro 2. Maybe go for the 3rd gen now that they’re out. Unless you’re an audiophile and very discerning with your sound, these are excellent. They work seamlessly with iOS devices. They sound decent. Noise canceling works great. Call quality is great. You can talk outside. Inside. In the wind. With noise around you. People can still hear you. They are comfortable. You can leave them in even when not using them and they automatically turn on transparency mode so you can hear those around you. Battery life is enough. Especially with the case they will recharge them in minutes.

AirPods Pro 2 for earbuds and Sennheiser Momentum 4 for headphones. Both work well.

Having owned both, the air pod pro 3 have insane ANC whereas the pro 2 have better noise transparency.

If considering open tws like those bose, Then Moondrop Pill is 60$ and will eat bose SQ for lunch. Otherwise snag a set of used (or new on sale?) airpods pro 2. They blow all of these out of the water, not even a competition

Because everyone else cant do it, Airpods Pro. 2 or 3. Only comfortable, properly sized case, proper buttons and well tuned form factor. AZ80's case is awful and tap buttons are insufferable for the tapping noise and inability to be comfortable laying down with them and they'll pause music randomly Galaxy Buds 3 pro have awful tuning and ANC is cheeks compared to airpods. I have both. If you're going to pay money to inconvenience yourself, At least get a moondrop space travel cause their anc beats these for me.  Also make.sure to never attsch the airpods to an apple phone cause they'll update and degrade as planned

I saw some posts about the airpods pro 2 getting worse with the recent update thats eerily close to airpods pro 3 release.

Bro the aftershokz are open earbuds. So you can hear around you. Airpods pro 3 and 2 blow everything else in ear out of the water

For open ear, Aftershokz open dots one jus sayin I dont like in ears after these now. Only thing even close is airpods pro XM5 might have more bass but its balanced out by more upper mids so that bass is less textured and you lose lower mids(which is where alot of the feel of music is from)

Bro ignores every nuance about enjoyment of music vs fidelity. And honestly, the monarch mk3 are sharp. you're an ai if you can't understand that sharp ba =\= automatically mean better sound. They measure worse then airpods pro 2 on rtings
