If sound quality is a priority, and you often listen to music in quiet environments, the Moondrop Blessing 3 earbuds, with their excellent sound and build quality, is a better option despite the higher price. However, they are not optimized for exercise or making calls. Conversely, Youthwhisper bone conduction headphones, while more budget-friendly and poorer in overall sound quality, allow you to remain aware of your surroundings and are sweatproof and dustproof, making them suitable for outdoor activities and exercise. Their open design and durability also make them a practical choice for active use, though they may not be the best for immersive listening experiences. Give Feedback
