What reviewers said

Alienware Pro Wireless

Its leatherette pads and moderate 310g weight aim for comfort during long sessions, while the 2.4GHz wireless option and USB-C charging add versatility for desk and on-the-go use. Sound quality is generally strong, but the microphone performance and a single SBC codec limit keep it from being a flawless all-rounder.

  • Pro:Excellent battery life, especially with ANC off
  • Pro:Comfortable leatherette ear pads for long wear
  • Pro:Active noise cancellation and transparency mode included
  • Con:Microphone quality is underwhelming for the price
  • Con:Only SBC codec support limits high-res wireless audio
  • Con:No multipoint connection for seamless device switching

Cowin SE7

Priced around $70, it targets users seeking basic ANC without extra frills like transparency mode or app control.

  • Pro:Effective feedback ANC for the price
  • Pro:Long 30-hour battery life
  • Pro:aptX support for better wireless audio
  • Con:No USB-C charging
  • Con:No transparency mode
  • Con:No app support or custom EQ
