Aha! I've had both of these types.
Got a set of the Sony ones. Comfort 10/10, sound quality 12/10, stupid fuckin touch sensors instead of physical buttons that trigger constantly when you put the headphones down round your neck and you can't switch them off and it drives you so fuckin mad you sell them on eBay at a massive loss 0/10
So I got the Bose QC 45, comfort 12/10, sound quality 10/10, physical buttons, was 5/10 because there was no way to check battery level but they updated them last week so now long-press on the left button does that 10/10
The Bose ones even feel more well-made than the Sony and were โฌ100 less
The noise cancelling on the Sony was slightly better but the Bose ones aren't as tight so that could be why
I will never, ever buy a set of headphones with touch sensors ever again
Not sure why you got downvoted but you're right ๐
