If you prioritize call quality, the Earfun Wave Pro stands out with an excellent microphone, and it's also great for music and TV thanks to its low latency mode. However, the Sennheiser HD 250BT is more durable and offers better app-based customization, including an equalizer. The Earfun comes with ear hooks and a detachable cable which could be handy if durability and flexibility are important to you. If budget is key, the Sennheiser is slightly less expensive and also promises great sound quality but might offer less versatility due to the lack of a detachable cable and additional fit accessories.
