Music or audio books or podcasts are pretty good for commuting time filling but not with the noisy neighbours wittering on about anything and everything. Or the parent with young child aneasthetised with phone or tablet streaming the latest telleytubbies replacements,. Or those inexcusable POS (pieces of shoot) who listen to their excrementable choice of music without headphones from their phones.
So as a cycle commuter who uses mixed modal transportation I need something noise cancelling, compact for carrying when not wearing and cheapish at less than £100. I am sick of trying to cram in my sony over the ear ones into my bag when not being used. I would like a pocketable earbud instead as I tend not to use my headphones due to bulk when carrying.
So far I have seen Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 NC for about £40 something. Also The C39 I thinjk they are from Anker for £30-40. All in prime day (last day today though). Also Earfun pro 3 I think they are called are cheap at £35. They sound like an amazon brand and will disappear and come back with a new name in the next week or month or so. Are they a decent but cheap brand and is their NC any good?
I was spoilt by a freebie I claimed from Samsung after buying a phone from them 5 or so years ago that was absolutely amazing for NC. In fact I put it on once turned on the NC took everything away (even my partner shouting at me next to me I could not hear). They were AKG branded over the ear ones and about £3-400 back then or free with the phone that was about £499 at the time!! So nothing will beat those (or they will because Son lost them).
So anything good and cheapish with NC that is good and effective at screening out the annoyances of public transport?? In ear too I might add so they are compact for carrying.
Thank you in advance.
