How does the Space Q45 compare with the Sony WH-1000XM5?

The Sony has stronger noise cancellation, better call mics and a more premium build. The Q45 counters with much longer battery life, multipoint and a lower price, so it is the value pick.

Is the noise cancellation good enough for flights?

It cuts engine rumble and low-frequency noise well, which helps on planes and trains. It is less effective against voices and higher-pitched sounds than premium models.

Can I connect two devices at once?

Yes. Bluetooth 5.3 multipoint lets you stay connected to a phone and a laptop and switch between them.

Yes. A 3.5 mm jack and cable are included, so you can listen wired when the battery is empty or on a plane.

How long does the battery last and how fast does it charge?

Anker rates it at up to 50 hours with ANC off and around 45 with ANC on. A short fast charge gives hours of playback, and a full charge takes about 2 hours.
