If you prioritize advanced health-tracking features during workouts, prefer bone conduction technology for situational awareness, and don't mind a premium price, the Mojawa HaptiFit Terra may suit you. However, their sound quality is poor, so if you value music fidelity, the Moondrop Chu, being much less expensive, provides very good sound with budget-friendly pricing. The Mojawa is better for calls and has a heart rate sensor and storage for music, while the Moondrop excels in mic quality without such features. Finally, if you need headphones for travel or noise isolation, neither would be ideal due to their open enclosure and poor isolation respectively. Give Feedback
