If you prioritize sound quality and comfort, Raycon The Everyday Earbuds are superior, offering better bass and overall sound clarity. They also have a longer battery life, which is great if you're on the go often. However, Skullcandy Dime earbuds are much more affordable, and they bring good value for their price with decent sound quality and a compact design. They're a solid choice for casual listening without breaking the bank. Remember, while the Raycons provide a richer audio experience, you may consider whether the price difference justifies this upgrade for your needs. Give Feedback

"Sure, every influencer owns these buds. They’re still pretty good. In this price range, getting anything that seals well in your ears for good soundstage, doesn’t sound like trash, and won’t immediately break is a huge win. The Everyday Buds tick all of those boxes for me, and I intend to use them at least nearly every day; I go to the gym on alternating evenings. Damn it, YouTube. You've cost me good money again."
