The format
Earbuds and their case take up less space. Headphones avoid putting tips in your ears, but may feel awkward with glasses or a high collar. Try the format if you can.
Two models to consider
Sony lists noise cancelling and multipoint connection on the WH-CH720N, which can help you switch between a phone and computer. Check compatibility with your devices.
The WF-C710N are in-ear earbuds with noise cancelling and ambient mode. Comfort depends on the tips and fit.
The limits
Our editors have not tested these models. Their specifications come from the Sony pages cited below; sound and call quality have not been assessed.
Isolation varies with fit. Ambient mode does not guarantee your safety in traffic.
With your outfit
Dark headphones can echo the colour of your shoes. Earbuds leave your collar clear.
