Selecting between the Bang and Olufsen Beoplay H95 and the JBL Tune 760NC hinges on priorities of cost, quality, and specific features. The H95 offers superior sound quality, comfort, and materials, and typically includes noise-cancellation technology more effective than that of the JBL. If budget is a major concern, the JBL Tune 760NC offers decent audio quality and active noise-cancellation at a significantly lower price point. For those who engage in a lot of calls, the H95 may also have a better microphone. However, the JBLs are a viable choice for everyday casual use, especially when price is a deciding factor.

"The Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H95 offers a near bespoke level of build quality and design with impeccable materials, intuitive controls, and great sound. From an industrial design perspective, they are one of the best wireless headphones we have tested so far."
"The JBL 760NC offers quite a solid and moderately-above-average sonic performance for wireless headphones in this price tier. As usual, JBL outperforms more conventional big names like Apple or Beats. Listeners are given a clean, detailed, and mostly neutral sound that, typical to Harman, holds a universal appeal that seems unlikely to offend."
