The Sony WH-1000MX3 are so impressive that our Digital Trends review team named them as the best wireless and noise-canceling headphones this year. It’s equipped with an incredible noise-canceling technology that efficiently blocks out background sound, whether it be from appliances, vehicles, or humans.

Also worth checking out are the Bowers & Wilkins PX. This model is the famed British audio company’s first entry into the noise-canceling market, providing travelers and professionals alike with a tech-packed option. Their drivers are subtly angled to deliver a more natural stereo perspective and crystal clear audio reproduction with rich bass, whether you are watching a movie or rocking out with your favorite tunes.

If you want to modify how much of the outside world you want to hear, you can easily do so with these Bowers & Wilkins noise-canceling headphones. Their adaptive noise cancellation (ANC) feature lets you select among three modes so you can experience optimal isolation wherever you are. There’s the flight mode to completely block out engine noise during travel, office mode to limit background sounds while still being able to hear conversations, and the city mode if you want to stay aware of what’s happening around you.

The Bowers & Wilkins PX are outfitted with buttons on the right earcup for quick adjustment of settings on the fly. But what really makes them convenient to use are the built-in sensors that allow for a highly intelligent control system. Lifting an earcup or hanging them around your neck will pause your music, and when you put them back on, music will resume. Taking them off, on the other hand, will power them down into a deep sleep mode to preserve battery life.

With outstanding build, design, style, and functionality, the Bowers & Wilkins PX are solid contenders against the best from Bose and Sony. Pick up a pair of these noise-canceling headphones on Amazon for only $298, and walk away with $102 in savings.

The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds.

Are you looking to buy new wireless earbuds in this year's 4th of July sales? Here's a highly recommended option -- the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, which are available from Best Buy at $49 off. You'll only have to pay $150 for these noise-canceling earbuds instead of $199, but with time running out on the offer, you're going to have to proceed with your purchase immediately if you're interested. Once the bargain is gone, we're not sure when you'll get another chance at it.

Why you should buy the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds
The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II were launched nearly a year ago, but you'll still get an amazing listening experience with their predecessor, the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds. Their main selling point is active noise cancellation, which isn't a surprise because Bose pioneered the development of the technology that's now found in most of the best wireless earbuds. When Quiet Mode is activated, the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds use powerful microphones to monitor the sounds in your environment, then they produce opposite signals to cancel them out. However, if you need to hear what's going on around you, a double tap switches the wireless earbuds to Aware Mode, which will let you listen to your music and your surroundings at the same time.
