Apple-integrated, great ANC, but fit issues & poor Windows support.

JBL Tour, Bose QC, Sony XM4 and XM5, Liberty NC4... They all sound better but like I said, AirPods Pro 2 truly shine with their seamless integration into the Apple Ecosystem, transparent mode, ANC and call quality. You can basically put them on and forget they're there
Speaking of headphones with a screen. I love my JBL tour Pro 3's and I like their approach with the JBL 4s series. Apparently the same drivers but different form factors. So pick the style for you. I read somewhere that they have changed their signature sound to be better out of the box. Be interesting to see what the tour Pro 4s are like when released but should push down the 3 pricing.
JBL Tour Pro 3. Got the case plugged into my SD via usb and the phones wirelessly in my ears
The best ANC is not from airpods pro 3. If you have an iPhone an you are an apple fanboy that's probably believable. But in reality no. It's up there ebut def not the best ANC by any means. Also every one you named below then is actually above them except for JBL which is also better all around besides ambient an anc modes
They can be worth it if you value them. IMO, I can't trust anything less than $100 USD. I've bought a few pairs to try to convince me otherwise but end up going back to my expensive earbuds. The lowest pair I own are the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, JBL Tour Pro 3, Apple Airpods Pro 2, Google Pixel Buds Pro, and Soundscore Liberty 3 Pro. My preferred earbuds are the Bose Quietcomfort Ultra and Sony WF-1000XM5. I want to try more expensive earbuds, but at that point, over the ear are better.
The Tour Pro 3 are third on my fav list. First is Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2 and second are Sony WF-1000XM5. The Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are my favorite all around ear buds. Not the best but for every day use.
I’ve had all except the huawei. I still have the JBL’s. I love them. But I also have AirPods Pro 2 and most recently bought one plus buds pro 3. Out of them all the one plus buds are by favorite. I can’t wait for the pro 4’s and the new AirPods Pro. But I think the dual drivers really make a difference on the JBL and one plus.
