If budget is a deciding factor and you're looking for a lower-cost option that excels in calls and meetings, TV and video, and music, the Earfun Wave Pro could be suitable, though they are bulkier and less portable. They offer longer battery life and come with a detachable cable for wired usage but lack optimization for Android or Apple. In contrast, if you need earbuds for exercise or travel, with best-in-class use during exercise, on-the-go portability, sweat and dust resistance, and active noise cancelling, then the Jabra Elite Active 75t would be better despite being more expensive. They also provide a more tailored experience with app equalizer controls and are optimized for both Android and Apple users, but with a shorter battery life and no wired option. Give Feedback
