If you prioritize sound quality for music and a more traditional in-ear design with active noise cancelling for focused listening sessions or air travel, the JBL Live Buds 3 would be the better choice, especially considering they are somewhat less expensive. On the other hand, if your use case involves calls and meetings, or if you need headphones that can double for fitness tracking and have features like a heart rate sensor, the Mojawa HaptiFit Terra would suit you more despite being somewhat more expensive. The HaptiFit Terra also offers bone conduction technology, which allows for situational awareness that is beneficial during exercise or outdoor activities. Give Feedback
