The Sony WH-1000XM3 support AAC:SUPPORTED AUDIO FORMAT(S)SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD, LDAC
I just don't know what to do! Sony WH-1000XM3, Jabra earbuds, or just wait and suffer with wires until something more compelling turns up.

They are great sound quality, the functions are great, it's USB-C quick charging, long battery life, and the ANC is amazing.
However, one shortcoming is that they are HORRIBLE for making phone calls. The mic sucks and I would not recommend it at all if you need to use them as such. I travel with other earbuds as well, and just use the 1000XM3s on the plane or other noisey areas to listen to music or watch the IFE or my tablet.

I just bought a set of Anker Soundcore Liberty Lites for $45 on Amazon (it's probably still on sale). They work very well for the price, no "left-ear dropouts" like other brands I've tried (I'm looking at you, JBL!). I've only gotten about 2hrs use between charges but I play them fairly loudly. Best part? I tried to run in them and they stay in! Was impressed enough especially at $45 I bought more pairs as gifts and another as a dedicated running pair (they can only pair to one device at a time).

They are goofy looking, AND I lost a pair not long after I got them, AND my current pair stopped charging 9 months after I got them (still under warranty, but still.) And with all of that I still like them a lot. As for "small ears", there's a condom-like thing that you might want to get her as a thoughtful gift. Don't google that! Instead, search for "silicone eartip" on ebay and have four pairs shipped from China for $1.
