Sony MDRZX110NC
Lightweight at 150g with a 3.9-foot cord, these wired on-ear headphones use 30mm neodymium drivers and active noise cancellation to block background noise. Their 115dB sensitivity and 220-ohm impedance deliver clear sound, while foam ear cushions improve comfort for longer sessions. Best for budget-conscious commuters or office workers who need basic ANC without sacrificing portability.
