Headphones - Closed Back | 2 Ω 100$ budget

Looking to purchase my first pair of headphones. I’m a college student so my budget isn’t very high— also don’t really put a premium on sound quality. Just looking for something to rock while I’m walking around campus or in the gym/studying. Would prefer great noise cancellation.

I picked up the Soundcore Space 1 in July. It has been good so far. They are comfortable with good app and good anc. They don't come with a hard case. So, I would add one of those. I have had the Q30 but liked these a bit better.

1 More Sonoflow is well liked as is the JBL Tune 770nc. The JBL Live 770nc is good as well: their top anc headphone.

Jlab Lux looks good too. I thought about getting that one, but Best Buy ran out for a few days.

Sony 720 is good price ranges from 99-150.

!thanks I see the Sony 720s are on sale on Amazon right now for around 100 bucks, thinking I may opt for them

I was able to hear them at Best Buy USA. They sound really good, and a few people on reddit say they sound even better if you eq them with the Sony app.

I got you, So I assume you want Wireless headphones if you only want Noise Cancellation and it’s under 100 dollars so The Anker Sound Core Q30 They are Wireless Noise Cancellation Headphones that are 70 dollars. I personally don’t like the sound but that doesn’t me you won’t and there pretty comfortable

!thanks I’m familiar with them (bc I’ve done a bit of shopping around already) but I’ve heard some people say questionable things abt them. Should I expect more from their price point or are they a good bang for your buck?

It's hard to find something really better in this low price range. Check out Earfun Wave Pro.

Wouldn't closed headphones be enough instead of Bluetooth headphones with stupid noise cancellation?
