If your priority is affordability and you use an Apple device, the Beats Fit Pro could be a better choice, as they are less expensive and optimized for Apple products with features like spatial audio. They're also great for exercise and have a secure fit with wingtips. However, if sound quality, particularly for gaming and critical listening, is your priority and you're willing to spend more, the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 could be the way to go. They provide Snapdragon Sound Technology for lossless streaming, lower latency which is great for gaming, and exceptional battery life. Both have active noise cancelling, but the Sennheiser offers a bit more with Bluetooth LE and aptX Lossless codec support. Give Feedback

How the Beats Fit Pro and the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 compare to other earbuds and headphones
"The Beats Fit Pro is just as easy to use with an Android device as it is with an iPhone. It seems Apple-owned Beats is trying to appeal to a wider market, and it works. The Fit Pro fits like a pro with the ear tip fit test and multiple ear tips. Sound quality is sure to please most athletes, but the Fit Pro is just at home in the office as it is in the gym. The main factor holding the Beats Fit Pro back from gold is the price."
"It’s fair to say our brief time with the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 was a generally positive one. Comfort levels seem similar to what we have experienced before and the general flavour of sound was to our liking although we need to get a pair in to test and put up against the big rivals at the money from Bose and Sony. It could be an interesting contest."
