The 1More Triple Driver earbuds offer excellent sound quality and comfort, making them ideal for music enthusiasts who value these aspects in a portable format. They also come with built-in controls and a microphone, which are convenient for calls and on-the-go use, but their gaming performance is not as strong. On the other hand, the AKG K361 headphones provide superior overall sound quality and better noise isolation, with a detachable cable that adds to their durability. They are better suited for critical listening and can be comfortably worn over long periods, though they are less portable and lack a microphone for calls. If affordability is a priority without compromising too much on quality, the 1More might be the way to go; however, if you're looking for the best listening experience and longevity, the AKG could be worth the extra cost.

The 1More Triple Driver has a price of $55 and the AKG K361 costs $100.
"For under $99 USD this has a good sound that, when paired with the build quality and design, makes for a solid pair of everyday buds. Should you get them? If you’re tired of buying cheap earbuds and want to treat yourself to something a little nicer, I say go for it."
"The K361 retains much of what makes the K371 such a winner, though it has a leaner sound, and the build changes made to trim the price down are immediately apparent. Still, it’s another excellent offering from AKG, and other companies in this fight should either be very worried or quickly designing updates to their old models."
