The 7hz Timeless earbuds are a premium choice with planar drivers known for their sound quality, especially for music with a high score in that area, but they lack built-in controls and wireless capability, which limits their convenience and exercise suitability. If budget permits and music listening is your primary concern, the 7hz Timeless may be a richer auditory investment; otherwise, the Razer Hammerhead True Wireless provides a more well-rounded feature set for everyday use.

"7Hz picked a bold name for the Timeless and frankly, got very close to justifying their word choice. Most importantly, the Timeless are good to go in stock form, so you don’t have to worry about source-matching and such. I can recommend the 7Hz Timeless to those who do not mind a dash of brightness up top, want a taste of planar in IEM form, and want one of the most resolving pair of earphones in the $150 - $300 price range."
"This latest set is more “Pro” than not in both looks and features: they offer active noise cancellation, a low-latency gaming mode, and have switched to a in-ear design with silicone tips. Just like many of the company’s laptops and gaming accessories, the 2021 Hammerhead True Wireless include Razer’s full Chroma RGB system. It makes for what Razer calls “the ultimate wireless earbud flex.”"
