You'll need the top headphones that block out noise regardless of whether you wish to block out the hum of your HVAC system, or need to block the background noise of jet engines. The newest Sony WH-1000XM5s are the new leaders in active noise cancellation and their predecessors were equally excellent.
We've considered the adjustability of ANC, touch controls and on-ear detection (for pausing music when you take your headphones off). Our top picks have high-resolution audio, comfortable ear cups and large earcups.
1. Sony WH-1000XM5
The fifth generation of Sony flagship headphones is significant improvements over the previous models, offering enhanced noise cancellation and superior audio quality. Its impressive ANC creates a virtual cone over your head, suffocating an astonishing amount of low-frequency sounds. The ear cups also block mid- and treble-range sounds like passenger chatter, creaking metal and clanging dishesware.
The WH-1000XM5s sound very natural, in contrast to noise cancelling headsets that can sound hollow. They can render the drums of Billie Eilish with astonishing clarity and keep the edges clean and pristine. They're great to listen to during a commute or long flight.
A capacitive touch-surface in the right earcup controls the most commonly used controls, including play/pause volume up/down, and skip forwards/backwards. It also lets you end or answer calls and switch between ANC mode and ambient sound. You can also hold the power key for several seconds to hear a voice telling you how much battery life you have left.
Another notable improvement over the XM5s is its new QN1 microphone, which is designed to record high-quality audio when making podcasts and videos. The microphone is more sensitive than previous models and has a larger audio range which makes it easier to hear your voice.
