If you're looking for high-quality earbuds at a more affordable price and you don't need wireless capability, the 1More Triple Driver is a great choice, especially praised for comfort and sound quality for music. However, if you prefer over-ear headphones with active noise cancelling for air travel and better sound isolation, and don't mind spending more, the JBL Live 770NC is suitable for you, with the added benefits of wireless connectivity and an app with equalizer features to customize your audio experience. The JBL also has features that the 1More lacks, such as sweatproof certification, an option for wireless charging, and longer battery life for extended use without frequent recharging. Give Feedback
