I’ve found a good number of negative reviews of Bose QC 2 and quite a few good things said about Sony WF-1000XM5 so I’m leaning towards buying them but would love to hear the general recommendation on Lemmy first.
I live in a very noisy environment and need earphones for my sleep, when I work or relax, and for listening to podcasts as well as a bit of music. And since sleep is most important for me, I have in-ear comfort as the top priority.
I’m still on the Sony XM4. No reason to upgrade really.
I bought the XM4 somewhat recently, because it’s like half the price of the XM5 new. And from reviews it supposedly has minor upgrades, so not worth the difference.
