The 1More Triple Driver earbuds deliver a strong audio quality and comfort but without wireless connectivity, active noise cancelling (ANC), or IP ratings for sweat and dust resistance, making them less suited for exercise and travel compared to the Skullcandy Hesh ANC. The Hesh ANC headphones provide the convenience of wireless usage and ANC for a more isolated listening experience, which can be particularly valuable during travel or in noisy environments. They also offer longer battery life. For exercise or exposure to the elements, however, neither may be ideal. Choose the 1More Triple Driver for a budget-friendlier wired option with good sound and comfort, or the Skullcandy Hesh ANC if you prefer the added features of wireless connectivity and noise cancellation for a slightly higher price.
