What reviewers said

1MORE H1037

This wired in-ear model combines a dynamic driver with two balanced armatures to produce a warm, detailed sound with robust bass and natural mids.

  • Pro:Sturdy build quality
  • Pro:Comfortable and stable fit
  • Con:Limited soundstage
  • Con:No noise cancellation

Audio-Technica ATH-ANC23BK

These wired in-ear headphones from Audio-Technica offer active noise cancellation with a surprisingly long battery life of up to 60 hours from a single AAA battery. They deliver a balanced, neutral sound profile that outperforms many budget competitors, though the noise reduction is modest and the cord-mounted control module is quite bulky. Overall, they're a solid value for the price, but not the best choice for heavy noise environments or extended wear.

  • Pro:Very long battery life (60 hours) from one AAA battery
  • Pro:Neutral, well-balanced sound for the price
  • Pro:Good value in the affordable noise-cancelling category
  • Con:Noise cancellation is only fair, not effective in busy offices
  • Con:Bulky cord-mounted module can feel intrusive
  • Con:Not ideal for long listening sessions due to comfort issues
