The JBL Tune 710BT headphones are a great option if you're looking for a budget-friendly choice with good battery life and comfortable over-ear design, which can be ideal for longer listening sessions. However, the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro offer advantages such as a more compact, truly wireless experience with active noise cancellation and higher-quality audio codecs, which can significantly improve sound quality. The Galaxy Buds are also more suitable for an active lifestyle due to their secure in-ear fit and water resistance. Consider the JBL for comfort and value or the Samsung for superior sound quality and features suitable for exercise or commuting. Give Feedback
