If you prioritize superior noise isolation and frequent air travel, the Skullcandy Hesh ANC headphones with higher active noise cancelling capabilities make them a compelling option despite having a longer charging time. However, if portability and exercise are your main concerns, then the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 earbuds are more suitable as they're lighter, sweatproof, and offer higher scores for use during exercise. While the Sennheiser has app support that allows for audio customization, the Skullcandy does not. On the other hand, for those who prefer longer battery life and a detachable cable, the Skullcandy Hesh ANC headphones hold the advantage. Give Feedback
