If you prioritize sound quality and plan to use the earbuds mainly for active pursuits like exercising, the Jaybird Vista 2 could be more suitable due to its higher music and exercise scores and the inclusion of secure fit accessories. However, if you're looking for earbuds that are optimized for both Android and Apple devices, have better portability, and slightly longer battery life, the Jabra Elite Active 75t may be a better fit. Both earbuds are sweatproof, dustproof, offer active noise cancelling, and wireless charging, but the Jabra has a small edge in noise isolation quality. Give Feedback

"Audio is spacious and warm, delivering just the right amount of boom to kickstart your workouts without compromising the mids and highs. Battery life (both on a single charge and the charging case) is superior to all AirPods models. The extremely durable shell also reassures you that it’s going to take more than some severe environmental conditions to damage these buds."
"Compared to the original Vista, the Jaybird Vista 2 adds some key features including ANC and SurroundSense to control how much environmental noise you hear. If you're an athlete and are looking for rugged earbuds with tons of customization options, the Jaybird Vista 2 makes for a good option—but only if you are able to achieve a proper fit from the proprietary ear tips."
