I’m a big fan of SoundCore products. I’m currently using the Space Q45 which replaced my pair of Life Q30s which I used the hell out of. IMO the Life Q30s have slightly richer sound quality despite being quite a bit cheaper than the Q45s, but all of their over ear headphone are super super comfortable and have good noise cancellation.
Thank you for pointing out that the Soundcore over-ear headphones are good. I've wanted to try this brand again because of the price point.
I've tried two different versions of the Soundcore in-ear noise cancelling buds and none of them did anything remarkable, IMO. I always went back to my Bose over-ear NC headphones.
I wonder if that's just a consequence of earplugs not being as good as earmuffs in general, though.
Also buy used, I just got a pair of WH-1000XM3s that still have the original case for $100. The ANC is so much better than any new $100 headphones and the battery life is still great.
Check rtings.com, pretty good website for that
thx

What's your definition for cheap and average?
up to 100$
I don’t think noise-canceling headphones are affordable with that price. Even Q35 costs $109.99

You could probably wait for a sale or get it refurbed
Get a used pair of good headphones, buy new replacement ear pads off eBay/AliExpress.
Don't buy cheap ones, get WH-1000XM4 so you get actual really good noise canceling. Don't think there is anything better. It's worth the money.

I can't((
Get some KZ earbuds and a set of foam plugs. Something the KZ-ZS10 Pro. Great value!
I got a pair of these when they were on sale for $39 last year, and I liked them so much I bought a second pair for when they bite the dust.
