One shopper gave these headphones a five-star rating and claimed they're the "best bang for your buck." They called the sound quality "nice and crisp" and confirmed they don't "sound tinny."

Another five-star reviewer said that while the controls have a "cheap feeling," they still "work fine." They also pointed out that you don't receive a case with these headphones, which is "not a big deal."

A third customer attested to them being "quite comfortable," even when wearing glasses. They continued to praise the battery life and said they "deliver a very nice listening experience" overall.

One person went as far as saying they're "one of the best noise-cancelling headphones on the market."

With the fall semester not too far away, it's essential to start shopping for school supplies, clothing and tech — and it's always great to get a head start. These noise-cancelling headphones will do a stellar job of helping you focus without having to spend an arm and a leg. Shoppers love 'em and say they're a great "bang for your buck," but if you're looking for top-of-the-line headphones over $100, you might want to keep browsing.

    This sobering message from one Beijing-based think tank analyst to the Post in a recent interview is a reminder of the huge hurdles that remain on China's path towards technological self-sufficiency. If China succeeds in this area, it could fragment semiconductor supply chains and technological ecosystems.

The results will provide investors the first hints of demand for the latest iPhone 16 series, which was released a few days before the end of the company's fiscal fourth quarter. But the focus will be on executive commentary for its fiscal first quarter amid fears that releasing its Apple Intelligence features at a slow pace could dampen a much-awaited AI-led "super-cycle" for Apple's biggest seller.

  • Here's what Apple Intelligence can do

    Apple (AAPL) has rolled out its highly anticipated AI features, called Apple Intelligence. Yahoo Finance Tech Editor Dan Howley joins Wealth! to break down its features and capabilities. "Essentially, the big takeaway from this is it's a start for Apple. This isn't going to be the thing that gets people rushing out the door to buy iPhones right away, but it does start to lay the groundwork for what we will see that could get people more interested in re-upping their phones when it comes to the next iteration of Apple Intelligence. And that's currently in beta," Howley tells Yahoo Finance. He notes that the next iteration of Apple Intelligence will include features like ChatGPT integration with Siri and Visual Look Up. However, in this current version of Apple Intelligence, users will be able to receive notification summaries, from text messages to news reports. There is also a tool that will be able to proofread writing and summarize emails. In addition, there will be a Clean Up feature in photos that can remove unwanted objects in the background. Watch the video above to hear how Howley anticipates consumers will react to the new features. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Wealth here.

  • Intel set for big drop in quarterly revenue as chipmaker struggles to bounce back

    Intel is expected to report its biggest quarterly revenue drop in five quarters on Thursday, potentially signaling more erosion of data center and personal computer market share for the once iconic American chipmaker. Shareholders have turned their focus to CEO Pat Gelsinger's attempts to salvage the company's lost market lead as losses mount at its contract manufacturing business, while Intel fails to capitalize on the generative AI-driven chip boom, after a series of missteps including passing on an investment in OpenAI. With Wall Street expecting Intel to report an 8% decline in revenue to $13.02 billion, according to data from LSEG compiled as of Oct. 26, investors want Gelsinger to provide clarity on his plans to get the company's latest manufacturing technology up and running.

  • Apple iPhone 16 sales blocked in Indonesia due to local parts rule

    Tech giant Apple Inc will not be allowed to sell its iPhone 16 smartphones in Indonesia because they have not met the country's rules on the use of locally made components, the industry ministry said. Indonesia requires certain smartphones sold domestically to contain at least 40% of parts manufactured locally and the iPhone 16 has not met the requirement, ministry spokesperson Febri Hendri Antoni Arief said in a statement issued on Friday. "Imported iPhone 16 hardwares cannot be marketed in the country, because Apple Indonesia has not fulfilled its investment commitment to earn a local content certification," he said, adding that the phones can still be brought from abroad for personal use as long as users pay the necessary taxes.
