If you want excellent build quality, very good overall sound quality for music, and active noise canceling for a quieter listening experience, you might prefer the Creative Labs Aurvana Ace 2. They also support a lossless codec for better sound quality and low latency which is suitable for TV and gaming. However, they're not the best for calls and meetings. On the other hand, if you plan to use earbuds primarily for exercise, the Jabra Elite Active 75t offers a secure fit with its sweatproof and dustproof features and best-in-class use during exercise score. They also provide slightly better battery life and are optimized for both Android and Apple, but they lack active noise canceling and a lossless codec support. Give Feedback

"The Creative Aurvana Ace 2 earphones deliver robust, crisp audio thanks to their combination of xMEMS and dynamic drivers. We're fans of their extensive, high-quality codec options and highly customizable EQ."
"Audio is spacious and warm, delivering just the right amount of boom to kickstart your workouts without compromising the mids and highs. Battery life (both on a single charge and the charging case) is superior to all AirPods models. The extremely durable shell also reassures you that it’s going to take more than some severe environmental conditions to damage these buds."
