Srhythm NiceComfort NC95

The Srhythm NiceComfort 95 is a battery life monster with shockingly good ANC for the price. Sound quality is solid but not elite, and call quality is a weak point. If you can find it for around $80, it's one of the best value buys in wireless over-ears right now.

The battery is the star here, landing in the 98th percentile of our database. That's best-in-class territory, and the quick-charge feature (10 minutes for 3 hours) is genuinely useful. Noise cancellation is also a standout, hitting the 92nd percentile, which means it punches well above its weight in blocking out office chatter or engine hum. Sound quality is solid and well above average, though it's not going to dethrone anything from Sennheiser. The weak spot is call quality, which sits at a mediocre 58.8 out of 100. If you're taking a lot of calls, the mics just don't keep up.

Stacked against the Sony ULT WEAR or the Sennheiser Momentum 4, the Srhythm loses on pure sound fidelity and call quality. Those are more polished audio experiences. But the NiceComfort 95 fights back with a battery that outlasts both by a huge margin and ANC that gets surprisingly close to Sony's best. Compared to other budget champs like the Soundcore Life Q20 or the TOZO HT3, the Srhythm pulls ahead with its metal build and more modern Bluetooth 6.0 chip. It sits in a sweet spot where it outclasses the budget tier on build and features, but can't quite match the premium tier on sound.

Value is where the NiceComfort 95 makes its name. The user sentiment score sits at 85 out of 100, and the recurring theme is that you're getting a lot of hardware for the money. That said, we saw prices ranging from a reasonable $80 all the way up to an absurd $10,924 across vendors. Obviously, don't pay the latter. If you can snag these near the lower end of that spectrum, they're a steal. Just make sure you're buying from a legit seller like Srhythm US on Amazon to avoid counterfeits.

Srhythm is one of those brands that flies under the radar, but the NiceComfort 95 makes a strong case for paying attention. You get hybrid ANC, Bluetooth 6.0, a transparency mode, and a frankly ridiculous 100-hour battery life, all wrapped in a metal build that feels more premium than the price suggests. It's clearly aimed at people who want flagship features without the flagship price tag, and for the most part, it delivers.

Skip these if you take a lot of calls. The mic quality is the weakest link here, scoring well below average, and you'll frustrate people on the other end. Also, if you're a stickler for pristine, detailed audio, you'll want to step up to something like the Sennheiser Momentum 4 instead.

If you want a pair of over-ear headphones that you can wear all day, forget to charge for a week, and still have enough ANC to drown out your commute, the Srhythm NiceComfort 95 is a fantastic pick. It's built for comfort and endurance, not critical listening. The call quality is the only real dealbreaker, so if you're not a heavy caller, you'll be very happy.
