If you prioritize a wireless experience and need an integrated microphone, the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 earbuds will suit you. They also have active noise cancelling which is beneficial for travel and noisy environments. In contrast, AKG K361 headphones offer a wired connection with no microphone, more suitable if you prefer an over-ear design and a potentially more durable build without the need to charge a battery. Keep in mind, for TV and gaming, latency could be an issue with wireless earbuds, which the AKG K361 as wired headphones won't have. Also, the AKG is usually less expensive. Give Feedback

Medium

Alex Rowe | November 2019
"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."
