Marshall's Milton A.N.C. is a rare on-ear with adaptive ANC, about 50 hours with ANC on and a battery you can swap.

Buying call

Buy the Milton A.N.C. if you want a compact, foldable on-ear headphone with real noise canceling: independent testing broadly matched Marshall's claims of about 50 hours with ANC on and 80 hours off. You also get LDAC, Bluetooth 6.0 with LE Audio, wired USB-C audio and a battery you can replace by removing four screws. Skip it if you want over-ear isolation, because voices and higher-pitched sounds still get through, the firm clamp bothered one glasses-wearing reviewer after about an hour, and wind noise is audible with ANC on.
