Noise cancelling wireless earbuds: Sony WF-1000XM3

Hello everyone,

I'm in the market for some active noise cancelling wireless earbuds as early next year I'll be traveling pretty light and I'll use them notably in airplanes. I'd bring my over-ears but I'm going to try to go for 3 weeks without a checked suitcase so space is at a premium. It seems to me like the Sony WF-1000XM3 would be a good fit for me as I'm fine with the form factor and reviews seem to say the sound quality is pretty good and the noise cancellation would do a great job during a flight. Besides the Airpods pro which I'm not interested in, are there any other good quality wireless earbuds that I should take a look at?

My requirements are:
-Decent sound
-Good active noise cancelling
-Wireless (I'm constantly adding and removing layers of clothing and putting my backpack on and off my back, cables are annoying)
-Battery life is a plus

In any case I'm hoping that the Sonys go on sale somewhere for Black Friday.

Looking forward to any suggestions. Cheers!
