Depending on where you're doing your meeting, the older version jabra 510 speaker allows you go to hands free in teams etc, which i use mostly now to prevent sore ears!
I do have jabra headphones as well for work

Had the iabra talk style mono headset and loved that until it fell apart - looks like they've changed the design so that wouldn't happen anymore. Was always easy connection and good sound, never had any complaints about sound from my side - plus ears didn't overheat after 20 minutes!
Now have iabra evolve, which work fine when they work, but as I'm not using the dongle, teams seems to forget they exist every couple of days forcing a restart (although that may be more to do with my laptop/teams than the phones).
I've got some Sony wf-sp800n and only used them once on a call, which worked perfectly fine, so might be a good option - love them and you can use each bud independently too.

Over ear is the way ahead, buds second in comfort to that IME. Sort from when is really hot and sweaty

@Machpants everyones different, i have some over ear audiotechnica ones with a detachable cable for travelling so i can switch between my phone and onboard screen....but in general i find buds much more comfortable, i find over ear eventually put pressure on my jaw

@Kiwiwomble got a Bluetooth dongle with airplane adaptor for the recent flights back home, do it! Pretty cheap and so much better than cords.
-
@Bones yeah, ive seen thoughs and definitely thought about it, i think i had just bought the AT ones with the justification they had the detachable cable so would be handy for travelling...mrs womble already gives me shit about headphones as i went through like 4 (fuck skullcandy) in a year over a decade ago and dont want to give her any amo...next time i update i'll definitely do it

I have Jabra and they are truly superb. Long battery, NC is brilliant and I can happily sleep wearing them on planes.
Thread hijack but anybody got good exercise bone conduction recommendations? I tried my friends out and the quality was pretty good but I prefer a bassier sound.

I have Bose quiet comfort. Very happy with those.

Same question!
Comfortable? And how's the microphone quality when you're talking
-
@MajorRage thanks will look closer at the Jabra options. A few people have commented and rate them

I personally find very confortable. Although I haven’t tried the Sony some people find the sound better but generally the Bose is supposed to be more comfortable. When I’m on call I have to take calls at home and if I’m watching sport or a movie on the phone and have to answer a call, I find it works very well. The only other headphones I’ve tried are beats and they were given to me but I’m on my second set of Bose and very happy. I’m not a sales rep for Bose so I suggest reading reviews on the net but generally it seems to be between Bose and Sony for the best headphones.

@nzzp Absolutely do not get the Sennheiser Momentum 4s.
The Sony WH-1000XM4s are good.
Comfortable? And how's the microphone quality when you're talking
I can definitely vouch for the WH-1000XM3's. I've had mine for 4 years at least and they are still going very strong.
Very comfortable as I mentioned, I've worn them on a plan for 6 hours plus and not an issue. My Sennheiser and Asus ROG headphones do not give anywhere near the same comfort level on the ears.
The microphone is very good but does tend to pick up some ambient noise.
I use them for work as well as hours of FPS gaming and when I travel.
Reading the reviews of the M4 version, this is very typical review from a website I trust:
Sony WH-1000XM4 review: A nearly flawless noise-canceling headphone
The much-anticipated new version of Sony's top noise-canceling headphone has finally arrived, and it makes small improvements to an already top-notch product.

I have the 1000X M3's and they're comfy as for long periods. However, I've found headphones with an external mic are far superior at cutting out surrounding noise when in a busy office. Fucken annoying being on the call with the clown you have to keep muting because they're in a noisy office, at home with a crying baby, barking dog etc.
