The ANC on these XM5s is pure wizardry on trains and flights. I still hear sharp voices, but the constant low-end rumble basically disappears.

What sold me was not a single flashy feature. It is the lack of friction: quick pairing, stable app controls, good EQ, and no battery anxiety.

If your priority is microphone quality for constant outdoor calls, test them first. For travel silence and long sessions, they are elite.
