Hey!
My old Bose somethingsomething earplugs died on me after roughly 5-6 years of use (even survived TWO trips through the washer and drier), and I'm looking to get some new ones.
My parameters are as following: In ear, noise cancellation, and wired.
1. In ear because I can't stand the bulk of a headset when I'm out and about, and use a helmet a lot. (And I don't want to mess up my hair)
2. Noise cancellation because I work in a noisy environment, and I travel a fair bit.
3. Wired because I'd like the ease of mind of not having to charge another device just so I can listen to music. (If the battery runs out I can still listen to music, just won't have NC).
So my choice fell on the Bose QuietComfort 20 for android, but it's almost half a decade old now, and they still want 300-320 USD for the damn things (in Norway).
Is it a smart buy still, or am I paying a hefty price for old outdated technology? Should I go for the apple version instead (~250 USD) and forego all the handy remote features?
Thanks in advance for any input!
