The 1More Sonoflow are over-ear headphones with good noise isolation, better battery life, and support for the LDAC codec, which is great for high-quality audio streaming; they're also suitable for air travel due to their noise isolation and comfort. On the other hand, the Grado GT220 are more portable stemless earbuds, provide a slightly better overall sound quality, and have wireless charging, making them convenient for charging on the go. If cost is a significant factor for you, the 1More Sonoflow is the less expensive choice, but if you prefer a more premium sound and the convenience of wireless charging, the Grado GT220 might justify the extra cost.
