If you’re looking for wireless noise-canceling headphones for around $100 or less, the JBL Tune 770NC and Sony WH-CH720N are two popular options. The Tune 770NC has a list price of $109, but it can often be found on sale for under the $100 price point. The Sony WH-CH720N has a list price of $99, but it is also regularly marked down.
Sony’s WH-CH720N wireless noise-canceling headphones are an affordable alternative to the company’s flagship WH-1000XM5 for those who cannot justify the $330 price tag. I purchased a pair and tested them for several days to determine whether you should buy them or if the low price prevents them from achieving the benefits found on their more expensive models.
If you’re on the market for an affordable pair of noise-canceling headphones that focus more on sound quality than ANC performance, the JBL 770NC is an outstanding option. While the noise cancelation isn’t great at reducing low droning sounds, it effectively reduces chatter and higher-pitched environmental noise.
When it comes to premium quality consumer headphones, Bose’s QuietComfort is at the top. The new QuietComfort Ultra are an upgrade to the standard QuietComfort model and while they retain a lot of the same features and design elements, they offer subtle, yet noteworthy improvements to the flagship release.
Soundcore’s Q20 and Q20i are two of the company’s most affordable over-ear wireless headphones, offering quality performance at under $70. But if you’re on the fence about which one to buy, and want to see how they compare – we’ll be covering everything that separates them and help you to identify which is the better purchase for you.
If you’re looking to dip your toes into audiophile headphones without breaking the bank, the Philips Fidelio X2HR is an excellent choice.
