WF-SP700N

Had used Sony WF-SP700N for 4 years, love its noise cancelling. Find its biggest problem is battery life. It only lasts about one hour after taking out of the case.

Of the choices, I have tried the Sonys (the 700n model with buttons) and they have ANC and sound as good as their linkbuds S. Also in the price range is the Soundcore Space A40s which have surprisingly good sound and ANC for their price.

Tried multiple buds below 5k, almost all the popular ones, the best ones stood out Oppo Enco Air 3 pro (costed me 3300). Better than Realme 6 pro buds , oneplus 3 & 3 pro & others as well (my friends had them). They worked great & still working after 2 years although I changed them with Sony WF700 (costed me 5000). So yeah go with your budget. Next I would definitely go for Apple buds pro 3 (not vfm for everyone).

Most Bluetooth Headphones / earbuds these days have an "bleed" Mode , they use the microphones to give you the outside noises in top of Your music. Sony WF CM700N are the ones i use currently.

C700N's fucking rip, I love them so much. They look clean, have the best noise cancelling I've ever heard, and the have actual physical buttons!!! Hate that"magic touch" bullshit, can't even tell you how many times something slightly brushes against it and turns up my volume all the way and explodes my eardrum😭

Shit I’m rocking the Sony WFC 500 and 700 series and I prefer the 500 for the battery life but the 700 has noise cancelling but needs a charge after 7 hours. They last a long I’ve got a pair 3 years that still hold a charge and work fine.

Very good point, and I can agree based on having tested the Sony WFs :D
