The bottom line The Edifier W820NB Plus are the sub-$100 ANC over-ear that ship with LDAC hi-res codec support, and that single spec wins it a place in the budget round-up. Hybrid ANC clears most office and street noise without the deep cabin pressure of $300 flagships, the 49-hour battery on a single charge survives a full work week, the 40mm titanium-plated drivers deliver a more balanced signature than the Anker Q20i bass shelf, and the Edifier ConneX app provides genuine EQ rather than presets only. The trade is a less premium chassis feel, a slightly tighter clamp, and a microphone that struggles in noisy environments.
Value
At $89 the Edifier W820NB Plus is the right Electronics in 2026.
