For clear calls and general listening, including TV and video, the Creative Labs Aurvana Trio LS would suit you better as they offer a good microphone, comfort, and sound quality. However, if you're on a tight budget and prefer earbuds with durable build quality, the option for a detachable cable, and a focus on music, the KZ ZSN Pro X would be a wise pick. They are less suited for exercise and don't feature active noise cancelling, making them less ideal for travel compared to the Aurvana Trio LS, which offers better noise isolation. Neither earbud supports wireless use or has an app equalizer for sound customization. If you often engage in activities that warrant sweatproof features, you may want to consider other options, as neither of these models is sweatproof certified. Give Feedback

Forbes

Mark Sparrow | December 2021
"These super-affordable wired earphones are some of the best I’ve heard in recent years. For the money they are unbeatable. And before you say: “I can’t use them as there’s no headphone jack on my smartphone!”, they can work with jack-less phones by using the brilliant little Creative SXFI headphone amp which plugs into a smartphone’s USB or Lightning port (with an adapter) and produces the most sublime audio output."

Soundguys

Jasper Lastoria | April 2023
"The KZ ZSN PRO X offers superb sound for very little money, like under $30 USD. It has some rough edges with a plastic seam on the cable that can rub on your ear, and the bud is a bit large. The tech isn't cutting edge, but new doesn't always equal better. You should try it."
