If you're on a budget and need something for exercise or air travel, the Baseus Bowie MA10 earbuds would be suitable due to their sweatproof feature, very good noise isolation, and decent portability. However, for an immersive listening experience, especially for gaming and TV, Sennheiser Momentum 4 headphones are superior with excellent noise isolation and sound quality, though they are more expensive. The Sennheisers also offer long battery life and are foldable for easier transport, but may not be ideal for exercise due to their size and weight. Both have good mic and build quality, but the Baseus may fall short in sound quality for music and calls. Give Feedback

Simon Cohen | August 2023
"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."

Christian Thomas | January 2023
"If you're looking for a slightly more affordable set of ANC headphones in comparison to the Bose or Sony offerings: the Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4 Wireless is not a bad way to go. While its ANC is technically behind the other top-tier headphones, its sound quality is ahead of the pack—as is its battery life. Not bad for $350 USD."
