If you prioritize gaming, the Razer Hammerhead True Wireless earbuds offer a dedicated low latency 'Game mode', making them more suitable for gaming than the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3, which although has better overall sound quality for music and TV, they have a longer latency that isn't optimal for gaming. Sennheisers provide excellent noise isolation which can be great for travel and offer an app with equalizer settings for a customized sound experience. Keep in mind, the Razer is more budget-friendly, but Sennheiser offers features like active noise cancelling and optimized app controls that could justify the higher cost for a more feature-rich listening experience.

The Verge
Chris Welch | August 2019
"This latest set is more “Pro” than not in both looks and features: they offer active noise cancellation, a low-latency gaming mode, and have switched to a in-ear design with silicone tips. Just like many of the company’s laptops and gaming accessories, the 2021 Hammerhead True Wireless include Razer’s full Chroma RGB system. It makes for what Razer calls “the ultimate wireless earbud flex.”"
