Sony and Bose are two of the biggest names in headphones. If you're looking for a new pair – be they over-ear cans or in-ears buds, noise cancelling or not – chances are that these two brands will have something for you. But which should you choose?
We've been reviewing headphones for decades now, and many of our top pairs have been made by Sony or Bose. Hence we're well-versed in the brands' strengths and weaknesses. Our review process is the most thorough around, with each pair evaluated not only for sound quality, but comfort, build quality, design, battery life and all other aspects. All our testing is comparative too, placing each pair in context to give a definitive verdict on whether they are value for money.
