Marshall Motif ANC

£169 / stuff.tv/motif

These noise-cancellers retain the signature look of all Marshall’s ’phones, in turn inspired by the classic amplifiers. That design gimmick doesn’t get in the way – these are seriously impressive buds with fab sound, a decent fit and sturdy build.

Max playtime is 6hrs plus 20hrs from the case. Marshall’s app is pretty decent, enabling you to switch ANC modes, but as you’d expect you can also do this on the ear. The only issue is that the touch controls can be a bit too easy to hit as you brush past them.

The bottom line is that these in-ears have stayed in our bag.
