That gain in form-factor is not comparable to the removal of the 3.5mm port though.

As someone that has been using noise cancelling wireless headphones for 3 years, sorry I can't relate.

I'm considerate of the price premium this represents, and how Apple's new buds unfortunately only offer 5 hours of charge. But I just want you to know there is another perspective.

Given your usage patterns, what sort of battery performance do you normally expect from wireless earbuds? 5hrs with a 24hr+ charging case seems decently long to someone who only uses wired earbuds.

Bose QC-25 give me 35 hours of active noise cancelling on a single AAA battery.
