Bose QuietComfort 25
Score: 92/100
Riibox Y7Pro
Score: 93/100Rankings
Riibox Y7Pro delivers long battery life, hybrid ANC and LDAC support at a budget price, making it a solid travel companion. Build quality and high-frequency ANC are modest, and the companion app can be laggy.
The Bose QuietComfort 25 delivers classic over-ear ANC performance with a lightweight, comfortable build and up to 35 hours of playback via a replaceable AAA battery. Its wired-only nature and dated connectors limit its appeal for users seeking modern wireless features.

Professional reviewers praise the QC25 for its class-leading ANC, comfortable lightweight construction, and long battery life that can be replaced with any AAA cell. Sound quality is highlighted as balanced and detailed, and the ability to function without power is seen as a practical advantage. Criticisms focus on the lack of wireless connectivity, limited Android remote support, and the absence of an ANC power switch, which make the model feel dated compared to newer Bluetooth offerings.
Everyday users consistently commend the QC25's noise cancellation, comfort and clear sound, often noting that the headphones still perform well years after purchase. Common complaints revolve around the wired-only design, fragile 2.5 mm cable connector, limited Android remote functionality, ear-pad wear and the missing ANC on/off switch that can drain the battery.
Professional reviewers praise the Y7Pro as a value-packed performer, highlighting its long battery life, effective hybrid ANC, and LDAC-enabled high-resolution sound. While the sound is bass-forward and the build is solid for the price, they note the ANC doesn't match flagship levels, the app could be more polished, and the plastic chassis may not endure heavy abuse.
Everyday users overwhelmingly appreciate the marathon battery life, comfortable fit, and impressive sound quality, especially the LDAC support. Common complaints revolve around a weak transparency mode, average microphone performance, overly strong bass, occasional app lag, and a plastic feel that feels less durable.
