I have a pair which I got for £110 newish (amazon warehouse) recently.
Initially very happy with them, as the ANC was very pleasing and the sound quality very good.
The issues I have are mainly the mic quality, which is shite and that after an hour or so the ANC develops a faint crackle in one ear. This is very common apparently and due to humidity in the ear cup.
I'm still happy with them, just because all BT headphones for that price are shite in some/many ways and these are 90% usable for me.

Don't buy any Sony WH-1000XM3
They are fantastic quality sound, and the notice cancelling is amazing. However the build quality is rubbish, I've had to buy 3D printed arm brackets to replace the ones it came with as they broke, and now they won't turn on, and buy the looks of this reddit thread the wiring isn't great inside so I'm going to have to fix that myself.

I picked up some cheap Airpod Pros (normal ones don't fit my ears), as they are super handy, and using all Mac stuff it's pretty convenient using them to switch between devices taking phone calls etc. Only take them out when I don't have space for my big Sony ones though, I'm not a fan of the inner earphones for too long.
