I’ve never tried them but probably Beats or Bose.

Beats are all marketing-driven. Their products don't close top 3 in any category imo

If convenience is most important, look no further than the Airpods, or even the newer beats earbuds. However, it depends what's most important to you. For myself, I didn't need the best noise cancelling, but I wanted really good sound quality, which is how I settled on my Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EQ's (got a good sale on them). It all depends on what's most important to you when it comes to sound quality, noise cancelling, convenience and other features, as well as price.

I use Powerbeats to lift and Airpods for calls/music/day-to-day. Recently lost me Airpods and I've felt half naked ever since

“lost me AirPods”

Are you Irish or just talk like Conor McGregor? 😂😂😂

Yep.  Some of my friends call me using their airpods (not sure if Pro or what) and it legit sounds like they put loose change in a blender.  They blame something in the background (oh it's my neighbor's dog) but that's not accurate because it only happens when they have their pods in.  I've had to hang up and tell them to take their multi-tasking bullshit elsewhere.

 

At this point, I just use my Airpod Pro's for virtually everything - whether that's noise cancelling on planes or running. I got tired of carrying around multiple different sets. I used to have the sony over the ear (incredible sound IMO) and then power beats for working out. I've not used the Bose earbuds but have heard really good things about them.

You won't go wrong with AirPod pros

Can you run in them though? Or jump rope?

Not an Airpod person, find they don't fit my ears at all. I really like the Jabra headphones. The 85t are great if you're a headphone buff for ~$170, but the 65t can be found new for under $80 and is a great deal at that price point. They work fine with Apple stuff.

Easily worth it.  I haven't talked about the Max much on this thread since title said earbuds.  But FWIW they have the most useful noise cancellation because they cancel out mid ranges better.  i.e. human voices.  The other brands (Sony/Bose) are able to cancel out the low ambient noise like airplane engines, but that's less useful than canceling intermittent noise like people talking.

I've heard the Bose QC45 is also starting to cancel out the mids a bit.  I've had prior iterations of that product line and they've only been good at cancelling the lows.  Maybe better now.  But in any event I'd pay up and get the Max.

 

Everybody's different.

Sony wf- 1000XM3's and Xm4's - I recommend these are you can EQ them easily making them great all arounders no matter what sound signature you prefer.

Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro are also great

Disregard the earpopds and treat yourself to a better listening experience.
