I've got these. They're very good, near-or-makes-no-difference as good as my wired Sony MDR-EX650APs in terms of sound quality.
Not tried the "true wireless" ones, though What HiFi rates them very highly.

These are the ones I am looking at

It's a relatively extravagant purchase by my standards but headphones are one of those things I will get my use out of.

I only need to satisfy myself that the Sennheisers are a better choice for me than these Sonys and the well-reviewed Jabras for half the money.

I don't need active noise cancellation or smart assistant features, my priorities are sound quality and reliability.

The Bang & Olufsen ones are available with good discount but receive poor reviews due to niggly connectivity issues.

I don't tend to get on with the Bose sound signature- it's spacious and airy but for me gives away too much in the lows and mids. Conversely I tend to like the way Sennheisers sound and am loyal to the brand.

The Sony WF-1000xM3 mentioned in the post above look like they're going to be real contenders upon their release next month. Never had any Sony gear before.

Buy the Creative Outlier Airs.

£75 and they are superb.

The Gold version might be out now for a few more pennies, longer battery life and some other features.

Nice wireless earbuds

Work well for riding the bike but sound quality no where close to my B&W's

They look good, shame about the microphone.

I would steer clear of the premium priced ear buds from any manufacturer. I bought some Sony WF-1000x last year and the Creatives are a big step forward, I expect they will keep improving rapidly.
