Using Sony WH-1000XM3 myself. RTings has tested most ANC headphones on the market and published their measurement (not gut feeling) results: https://www.rtings.com/headphones/tests/isolation/noise-isol...

Probably would get Sony WH-1000XM4 myself this time (they pause automatically when taken off). Have not personally used Bose ones since QC35, but some people like QC35 II better for long term use. Also Sony XM3 microphone is not very good for phone calls. I have heard XM4 has fixed this, but can not confirm.

I tried both the Sony XM3 and Bose NC 700 and went for the latter. Mostly personal preference for size, weight, fit as ANC and sound quality are pretty even. The Bose though is superior for calls. Never had a problem.

I love my WH-1000XM3s and was probably responsible for at least 3 of my friends getting pairs... but yes, agreed, the call quality is pretty poor.

Fantastic noise cancelling headphones, though.
