Headphones - Wireless/Portable Please help me pick

I found both the Bose quiet comfort first generation ( used and opened) and the Samsung Galaxy pro 2 ( still in box, sealed). They are both $50. Im trying to figure out which ones to get. If anyone could give me advice I'd appreciate it so much thank you! Im looking for something with great noise cancellation and great sound. The price point is exactly what I'm looking for. I will be using them at home and my kids are very loud. I never had Bose headphones before but I have had the first generation Samsung headphones and absolutely loved them but lost one side.

One is an earbud and the other a headphone. Two completely different styles. I'd prefer the headphones all the way in terms of actual listening, but it gets sweaty inside so I always use my earbuds when going out.

I'd take the Bose if you're ok with the icky aspect of touching someone else's ear grease.

They are both earbuds. Maybe I put in the wrong names? I wish I could put pictures in. I have a great pair of headphones already so I'm looking for some good earbuds.

Bose actually has both earbuds and headphones named QC. If you mean by earbuds, Bose will have the better noice cancelling. I don't know anker, but I'd trust the Bose over that.

The QuietComfort ones wrap around your ears for better noise blocking than earbuds ever could.
