The wf-1000mx3 are earbuds, and they have some of the best noise cancelling on the market… or did when they came out. I guess they are a few years old now, but it’s significantly better than any non-Sony ANC I’ve ever used, headphone or earbud.
I'm sure they compare favorably to other earbuds. But their form factor means they're inevitably going to have inferior ANC to the flagship over-ear headphones from Bose and Sony. Those would be the QC-45 and WH-1000XM5 headphones at the moment.
It's why you don't see them directly compared very often; they're in different leagues and there's really no contest.
