Monoprice BT-600ANC vs MEE audio Matrix Cinema

The Monoprice BT-600ANC is the stronger pick for most people: real hybrid active noise cancellation rated to about 35dB, aptX HD, and up to 40 hours of playback. The MEE audio Matrix Cinema is a passive, memory-foam headphone with multipoint and a long talk-time rating, but it cannot cancel noise the way the Monoprice does. Build on both is plastic and functional at this tier; owners of the Monoprice tend to praise the ANC for the money and note average call quality, while MEE buyers value comfort and multipoint.

• Choose the Monoprice BT-600ANC if you want actual active noise cancellation, aptX HD, and the longest battery life for commuting, flights, or open offices.
• Choose the MEE audio Matrix Cinema if you mostly take calls across two devices at once and prefer soft memory-foam pads over noise cancellation.
