The JBL Tune 710BT is a traditional set of over-ear headphones which will generally offer better bass and noise isolation, beneficial for immersive music experiences and environments with background noise. However, they might be bulkier and less portable. The Shokz OpenMove uses bone conduction technology with an open design which allows you to stay aware of surroundings, making them safer for outdoor activities, but they may provide less bass and sound isolation compared to traditional headphones. If you’re an active user who needs to hear your environment, the Shokz OpenMove is a good option; if you prioritize sound quality and isolation, consider the JBL Tune 710BT. Give Feedback

"We are facing headphones that are comfortable to use with a foldable and lightweight design, which is combined with 40mm dynamic drivers and a multipoint Bluetooth connection, which makes them versatile and a good option for day-to-day use, whether for listening music, podcasts, audiobooks, or videos."
"The Shokz OpenMove are a bit more affordable than the company's other bone conduction headphones, making them a more appealing option for athletes on a budget. These headphones support premium features like multipoint connectivity and a durable build, but you lose other niceties like fast charging and a long battery life. Still, for less than $80, these are nice bone conduction headphones that will keep you safe when exercising."
