If you're on a budget and need earbuds for everyday use, especially during exercise, the Creative Labs Outlier Pro could be suitable as they are sweatproof, have very good built-in controls and mic quality, and are rated well for calls and meetings. However, if you're looking for premium sound for music, gaming, TV, and video with the added benefit of active noise cancelling and advanced features like mental health care routines through AI technology, and you don't mind a higher price, the Master & Dynamic MW75-Neuro headphones would be a better choice despite not being ideal for exercise or as portable. The Creative Labs Outlier Pro offer 10 hours of battery life, which is less than Master & Dynamic's 32 hours, but they have wireless charging, which the latter lacks. Give Feedback
