If you prioritize music quality and are interested in gaming or watching TV, the Creative Labs Aurvana Ace 2 would serve you well, as they offer very good overall sound and low latency, plus they support AptX Lossless for high-quality streaming. However, they have a lower calls and meetings score, so if clear communication is a priority, the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2, while somewhat more expensive, might be the better option since they have good mic quality. The Sennheiser earbuds also have a longer battery life in the case, which could be beneficial for extended use without frequent charging, but they lack low latency which is not ideal for gaming or watching videos.
