Hey guys,

Sorry to that guy, but recently my headphones that I've used commuting and at the gym for the past 3 years broke and now I need a replacement. I'm by no means an audiophile but I would like decent sound quality. They must be bluetooth/wireless and have decent noise cancellation too. Budget is circa €100 but will stretch if needed. Anything fit the bill around that price range?

Sony WH-CH700N's.

I was just about to recommend them. There is one downside though is is seems to amply any pressure on them massively, slightly clipping off a railing on the Luas left me in severe pain and with a ringing in my ear for three days. I can't use them in bed either because the pressure of the pillow puts a lot of pressure on my ear. It might be the same with any ANC headphones though.

Thanks, lads. I'll check them out.

Those are slightly out of OP's price range though.

Try looking for Samsung Level On wireless or Level U Pro ANC: https://geizhals.eu/?cat=sphd&bpmax=100&v=e&hloc=at&hloc=de&hloc=pl&hloc=uk&hloc=eu&filter=update&sort=p&bl1_id=30&xf=1228_aktive+Ger%E4uschunterdr%FCckung%7E1231_Bluetooth%7E1999_Samsung

I've used these. The NC is fine - but I found that if I was out and about with them on the noise of wind/etc was amplified to the extreme with NC enabled, and was still noisier than I'd expect if NC was switched off. I returned them for this reason.

I found them very comfy though...

Ye get what you pay for unfortunately.

Found Sony WH-CH700N's for £99 in Currys up North. going to buy during the week if they're the best bang for buck?

I'm sure for your price range you'll enjoy them. They get very good reviews.

Got the Sonys today and wow! Far exceeded my expectations! Excellent for the price. Thanks again, lads.
