A budget alternative to Sony's flagship WF-1000XM4 — one of our best wireless earbuds — the all-new Sony WF-C700N carries over many performance hallmarks that made the entry-level WF-C500 a critical darling, while adding active noise cancellation (ANC) to the mix. Sound quality is powerful with Sony’s bass-heavy sound signature at the forefront, alongside proprietary technologies like 360 Reality Audio and DSEE Extreme. Upgrades to battery life and the design also make these buds a sweet pickup for brand enthusiasts. However, a higher price tag and the exclusion of some popular features may persuade you to consider some of the other best cheap wireless earbuds out there.
