If you're looking for headphones with stronger noise isolation for air travel, the Soundcore Space One with active noise canceling and a longer cable might be a better fit, and they come at a slightly lower price. However, the JBL Live 770NC offers a better overall sound quality and slightly longer battery life, which could enhance your listening experience for music at a midrange price point. Both have a foldable form factor for portability, but if call quality is important to you, the JBL has a higher mic quality score. Neither are ideal for gaming or watching TV due to latency issues.

PC Magazine
Tim Gideon | September 2023
"The Anker Soundcore Space One noise-cancelling headphones are stylish, comfortable, and affordable. They offer better active noise cancellation than we expect for the price, and their sculpted audio impresses thanks to the adjustable EQ and support for the hi-res LDAC codec. Overall, they’re an excellent value and well worth your attention if you're on a budget."
