If you prioritize sound quality for music and watching TV, the Beyerdynamic 770 Pro offers very good performance and is comfortable for long sessions. However, they don't have a microphone for calls and are less portable. The JBL Tune Flex is more affordable, has a good microphone, and supports a low latency mode for gaming. It's also sweatproof, making it suitable for exercise. The Tune Flex is also more portable and offers active noise canceling, which the Beyerdynamic lacks. Choose Beyerdynamic for comfort and high-quality audio at home or the JBL if you need versatility, portability, and features for an active lifestyle. Give Feedback

"Altogether, when you consider its accessible price tag, the performance, the build, and its outstanding comfort, I think that the DT770 Pro is fantastic option for anyone looking for a closed-back headphone in the sub-$1,000 range, and I can confidently give it a strong recommendation."

"JBL is offering a similar design and arguably better resolution than the more expensive AirPods 3rd Generation. Add to that a comfortable and versatile fit, an equalizer and pretty decent ANC, and you’ve got a quality wireless earphone. I would have loved longer battery life and more crystal calls, but for the price, you can’t complain. A solid deal overall."
