It’s actually difficult to get info because ifixit doesn’t have ratings on all models, sometimes it’s just a guide. There’s no top list, just a blog here and there, a video in another place
I have created my own list, based on ifixit:
Best Closed ANC
- Sony WF-1000XM3

Just a guitar pick and a screw driver gets you there, and they close back up like new. No rating, but it’s the best closed in-ear
Best Open ANC
- Samsung Galaxy Buds Live
https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Samsung_Galaxy_Buds_Live
8/10 is the best score I’ve seen for ANY earphones
Best Closed
- Samsung Galaxy Buds+ Truly Wireless
https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Samsung_Galaxy_Buds_Plus
7/10 which is the best rating for an earbud
- Samsung Galaxy Buds
https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Samsung_Galaxy_Buds
6/10 which is previously the best earbud
After these four products, I haven’t seen ANYTHING better. Any others I should add to the list?
They at least can’t filter out the constant hum of the airco at work which is right over my head. Ah well, they were not to expensive and for phone calls they are great and they are comfortable to wear.
Thanks for letting me know, that narrows it down
I found the WF-1000XM3 have a bit of a noisy ANC. It’s certainly great, but instead of the outside noise I have to listen to the constant hissing from the microphones. Kind of ruins being the best ANC out of the bunch
I’ll be testing the Link Buds S next, they are not on ifixit, but I’ve found some teardowns that show that they are easy to repair
