If you're considering price and want a good all-around option for casual listening, the JBL Tune 710BT offers solid sound quality, comfort, and is foldable for easy transport, making it a budget-friendly choice. However, if you're looking for earbuds that offer better performance for calls and meetings, gaming, and TV and video, with the added benefits of active noise cancelling, a more compact size, and additional features like an app equalizer and wireless charging, the "Nothing" Brand Ear (2) might justify the higher cost. Additionally, the "Nothing" earbuds have lower latency, which is great for video and gaming, and they offer sweat and dust resistance, making them more suited for exercise and outdoor use.

"For the price the Nothing Ear (2) is pretty good. It fits well, and the IP54 rating (and IP55 with case) is durable enough for daily life. Most of its unique features are found in the Nothing X app, such as personalized frequency responses, and personalized, adjustable ANC."
