If you prioritize overall sound quality and low latency for activities like gaming and watching videos, the Creative Labs Aurvana Ace 2 would be a better choice; they also feature active noise cancelling which is ideal for air travel and noisy environments. However, if budget is a concern and you mainly need earbuds for casual use with a focus on comfort, the Raycon The Everyday Earbuds offer very good comfort at a lower price. The Raycon also has a longer battery life and is sweatproof, making them suitable for exercise. Keep in mind the Creative Labs offers better build quality and the ability to charge wirelessly.

How the Creative Labs Aurvana Ace 2 and the Raycon The Everyday Earbuds compare to other earbuds and headphones
"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."
"Sure, every influencer owns these buds. They’re still pretty good. In this price range, getting anything that seals well in your ears for good soundstage, doesn’t sound like trash, and won’t immediately break is a huge win. The Everyday Buds tick all of those boxes for me, and I intend to use them at least nearly every day; I go to the gym on alternating evenings. Damn it, YouTube. You've cost me good money again."
