Price comparison: Amazon: $289.99 | Walmart: $264.99 | Best Buy: $349.99

Reviews consensus: It's rare you get so many five-star reviews, but the Sony WH-1000XM4B justify them by moving beyond their predecessor with even better noise-cancellation. Add to that conversational awareness and you've got some of the best headphones for daily life around. We'd have liked water resistance for the price, but the mic quality is solid for taking and making calls, too. Not bad for a product that's more than three years old. This version, denoted by the 'B' at the end of the model number, is a limited edition Jet Black colorway.

Buy it if: You want excellent audio quality from over-ear headphones, plus the option to summon Alexa or Google Assistant without pulling out your phone. You want great noise cancellation. 

Don't buy it if: You want headphones you can run with — these are probably a little too heavy for working up a sweat. You want to wait for the inevitable next version.
