If you’re going about your daily routine or you take the bus/live in the city, less is more. I find apple products have the most pleasing ANC to my ears. They don’t make my ears feel uncomfortable and I can still hear loud sounds around me. I’m terms of “most potent” ANC, I’d give it to Sony. If you’re not enjoying the galaxy buds, I’d highly suggest not going anything Sony related. I only use mine when I’m traveling by plane, nothing else. It honestly works too well lmao.
