If you value overall sound quality and use headphones primarily for listening to music, the 1More Sonoflow offers a higher level of sound performance at a lower cost; they also provide longer battery life and are designed for over-the-ear comfort. However, if you make a lot of phone calls or attend virtual meetings and need reliable earbuds with good mic quality, active noise cancelling, and optimized for both Android and Apple devices, despite the higher price, the Bang and Olufsen Beoplay EQ would be better suited for these tasks. Keep in mind that the Beoplay EQ also has a higher build quality and is sweat and dustproof, making them potentially more durable for exercise or outdoor activities. Give Feedback

"The SonoFlow is cheap and fun, without going too far into being overly warm or annoyingly grating, or sharp sounding. The ANC features are lovely with strong app integration and excellent battery life."

Tim Gideon | March 2022
"Bang & Olufsen’s audio products prioritize style and function just as much as sound quality. The company’s latest Beoplay EQ noise-cancelling true wireless earphones combine strong, accurate-leaning audio with solid noise cancellation in an exceedingly classy design."

About Bang and Olufsen
