If sound quality is your top priority, Beyerdynamic 770 Pro offers superior audio but lacks a microphone and built-in controls, making it less versatile for calls and lacking convenience features like wireless connectivity. Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are more portable, offer better noise isolation, and have features like active noise cancelling and a microphone for calls, but with slightly less audio quality. If you need earbuds for exercise and travel, Buds 2 Pro are the practical choice due to their sweatproof certification and compact size. Give Feedback
