Nothing Headphone Pro B175
The CMF by Nothing headphones are widely praised for their exceptional value at around $80, offering premium build quality, comfortable fit, and impressive sound with deep bass and clear mids/highs. Active noise cancellation is effective for the price, though not top-tier, and battery life is excellent.
