Did you get over the ear (couldn't tell by your post).

The QC20 have been amazing, and have longer than apple's 5 hours battery life. The wireless QC20 will be out soon, and they're rated at 10 hours I think (maybe 8, can't find the article now).

I don't suspect they'll be able to do wireless active noise cancelling, so the argument for the lightning port supporting active noise cancelling functionality is weird... do you want people to go wireless, or not? My first reaction is that that was a poor justification.

I absolutely love my Quiet Comfort 20's from Bose too. Really help me focus and have the world around me disappear.

right on. it's the closest thing i cam find to portable deafness-on-demand.

i use mine with whitenoise (grey or brown noise, usually) most of the day, and it helps me get in 'the zone' more than anything else.
