During our research, we eliminate any headphones with several poor professional reviews or consistently low owner reviews. And nobody should have to pay for subpar sound quality. If something hurts to wear, you won’t use it, and poor fit often affects sound quality.

Fantastic sound quality and a comfortable fit: These are, of course, our top two priorities.

Plus there is no active noise cancellation. Though this pair is lightweight and portable, the lack of water resistance means you’ll want to be careful when commuting during inclement weather and choose a different pair for working out. The built-in microphones sound clear, even in a light breeze, and the dual-device connectivity works well for easy transition between phone and laptop use. Though this pair has to be powered on to work, the 80-hour battery life means you won’t need to charge frequently, and the quick-charge feature gets you 11 hours of playback after 10 minutes plugged in. The package includes two types of earpads (isolating pleather and cooling, breathable mesh) to ensure extended listening comfort, and the EQ presets in the Edifier app allow you to tune the sound to suit each type of earpad. The S3 sounds amazing both wirelessly and wired, largely due to the built-in amplifier that provides consistent driving power.

This portable pair uses planar-magnetic drivers that are capable of reproducing delicate detail and powerful bass notes. These headphones are among the best-sounding ones we’ve ever tested under $500, including those in our guide to wired audiophile headphones. If you just want wireless over-ear headphones that sound fantastic, the Edifier Stax Spirit S3 pair is for you. Sony also offers the new, pricier WH-1000XM5, which is quite similar to the XM4 but has a few key differences that might appeal to certain users.

Sony offers a one-year limited warranty that covers manufacturing defects but not water damage, so we don’t recommend that you take this pair to the gym or out for a stroll in a deluge. And the XM4 isn’t built for water resistance, but it can handle a light spritzing rain. The noise cancellation isn’t as effective against the noise experienced in an airplane, so we don’t recommend the XM4 for frequent fliers (check out our guide to the best noise-cancelling headphones to see how this set compares). Out of the box, this pair’s sound quality isn’t the best, but if you’re willing to put some effort into adjusting the equalizer settings in the app, the XM4 can sound better than just about any noise-cancelling headphones available. Plus, this pair has a ton of app-based bonus features, including a speak-to-chat function that senses your voice, turns on the awareness mode, and pauses your music automatically. These over-ear headphones are also comfortable enough to wear all day, and the microphones are effective at reducing background noise during phone calls and video meetings. The Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones are worth considering if you work in an open or noisy office space because they are great at blocking out voices around you.
