Sony WF-1000XM6 Silver

Great sound quality. The fit of the eartips determines the noise cancellation. With memory foam, that will be even better.

The sound and design of these earbuds are great, but that’s about all I can say. I have to cycle for an hour every day for work and would like to listen to music while doing so. That is impossible, unless you hear white noise through your music. Even when there is no wind, it picks up so much wind noise that it is just as loud as the music itself, causing it to cut out. For the ear tips, they chose a weird material that lies somewhere between foam and silicone, meaning they never really fit comfortably. It presses on your ear canal, and you never really get the feeling that it is airtight. Additionally, the accompanying app is a mess that crashes three times a day on my Xiaomi 13T Pro. Settings are unclear and aren't made any clearer by the poor Dutch translation. 360 Audio is a gimmick supported by three apps, all of which are ridiculously expensive and bad (22 euros per month; you can't download music offline).

I can't get them working properly.
