If you're looking for earbuds suitable for exercise, the Beats Powerbeats Pro might be a better choice given they are sweatproof, have ear hooks for a secure fit, and offer good performance during calls and music listening. On the other hand, the Master & Dynamic MW75-Neuro headphones excel in noise isolation with active noise cancelling, deliver excellent sound for gaming, TV, and video, and are built with a focus on luxury with superior build quality and comfort. However, the MW75-Neuro is at a high-end price point and is heavier, less portable, and not optimized for exercise. If budget is a concern and you prefer earbuds for active use, go for the Powerbeats Pro; if sound quality for various media and luxury appeals to you and the price is not an issue, the MW75-Neuro could be your choice.

"Sweat resistance, actual noise isolation, and a secure fit in your ears make these the true wireless earphones you want in Apple-land. Android users may find other options they like better, as these only support AAC."
