Odd I have tested them in stores before and they are typically well rated.
However I was using Bose QC II for a few years and now I use the apple air pod pros.
For in ear seal is really important for nose canceling and apple also provides a test mode / app on apple devices to test that sound isn’t leaking substantially.
Makes no difference in a quiet environment but will easily cancel out a loud air conditioner or most traffic noise from passing cars.
I bought some Sony XM4s because I’d heard this theory before but I found noise cancelling barely makes a difference.

Yeah I have the WH-1000XM3s and the noise cancelling made a substantial difference to my listening volume (like 30-40% quieter on average).
The overear headphones. The ANC just made no difference.

No I just sold them. They weren’t worth the price.
