The Baseus Bowie MA10 earbuds are budget-friendly and perform well for exercise and travel, with very good build quality and mic performance. However, they're not suited for music or video, and lack some features like low latency and virtual surround. In contrast, the Razer Hammerhead True Wireless, while pricier, excel in gaming due to their low latency mode and offer superior overall sound quality. They also have active noise cancelling for better noise isolation. Choose Baseus if cost and exercise use are priorities, or Razer for a better gaming and listening experience with higher cost.

The Baseus Bowie MA10 has a price of $23 and the Razer Hammerhead True Wireless costs $100.
"Even if the Bowie MA10 only had some of the features and performance they offer at double the price, they’d be a helluva good value. But given that they far exceed any other earbuds at this price, if you’re looking for an ultra-affordable set of wireless earbuds and you don’t mind their big charging case, you just can’t go wrong."
"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.”"
