Not OP but I was going to say the same thing - switching to BT headphones made me a very happy camper. I use Bowers & Wilkins PX, as they were the first USB-C headphones around. They have a great sound and no plastic, but if you don't care about that there's the typical Sony that everyone keeps praising (just looked it up, it's https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/headband-headphones/wh-10... ).

I use the sony WH-1000XM3 and love them. Game changer for noisy work environments.

I have the same, and they're brilliant. Put them on and it feels like I'm instantly transported to different (quiet) place.

I'm using NC-25 headphones by a brand called Srythm. Bought them on Amazon for around 50€. I'm wearing them every day for at least 6 hours. The earpads are a downside though because the stitching breaks after 6 to 9 months. (you can replace them yourself and they are relatively cheap - around 12€)

I prefer the Bose QC3 but depending whom you ask it's great or it's bad.

One thing is the non user replaceable battery, even if it fails during warranty Bose will try to get you to pay up.
