I got a pair of Zero:2 budget earphones. Wires are annoying when you’re used to wireless, but this was a good bet. Sure my AirPods block out plane noise better, but the passive noise cancellation is perfectly adequate on these, even on flights.

For mic audio you just can’t beat a physical wire.

Edit: these are a collaboration between 7Hz, a ChiFi manufacturer with a decent reputation, and Crinacle, an audio influencer(?) who tuned their sound. They’re 20 odd US dollars and sound awesome for the price, they’re my default backup pair of earphones and sometimes I’ll even just use them when I don’t really have to. I did change the cable to a braided one, the original picked up a lot of sound rubbing against my clothes, but hey, at 20$ I expect compromises like that.
