If you're frequently on calls, the Sennheiser HD 350BT with better microphone quality is preferable, but for those who prioritize noise isolation, such as while commuting, the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are superior. The Sennheisers provide a more immersive music experience with higher sound quality, but their bulk makes them less portable than the compact Galaxy Buds, which also offer convenience with features like ear detection and wireless charging. For TV and gaming, the low latency of the Sennheisers may be beneficial, while the versatility and exercise suitability of the Galaxy Buds come with a higher cost. Give Feedback

"Sennheiser nails just nearly everything about the Sennheiser HD 350BT headphones. Sound quality is excellent, and the high-quality Bluetooth codec support is a rarity at this price point. If you don’t care for high-tech features like automatic ear detection, you’ll be delighted with these portable headphones."
