If you prioritize portability and music listening without a hefty price tag, the Grado GT220 earbuds could be a good fit; their sound quality is very good for music and they're sweatproof, which may suit light exercise, though they fall short for gaming and TV due to poor latency. On the other hand, if you're seeking premium sound across various content, including gaming and TV, and could benefit from features like active noise cancelling, an integrated AI for optimizing daily activities, and better call quality, the Master & Dynamic MW75-Neuro headphones could justify their higher cost. They're also suited for air travel with superior noise isolation, but are bulkier and less suited for exercise due to their size and weight. Give Feedback
