After reading multiple reviews, I just bought Baseus Bowie MA10 earbuds with ANC, and they are indeed amazing. They are cheap, they sound great, the ANC works (there are several levels of active noise reduction), they have multipoint connectivity feature, they are comfortable, they are IPX6 certified, they do not fall off, when you move, and they come with the sound and gestures tuning app. Do experiment with the silicon thingies, as you need a tight seal to get the bass. So far, greatly recommended! I love them!
Oh yeah, there is a low latency mode, so you can use them with video.
