If you prioritize sound quality and comfort, the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 would be a superior choice, offering better soundstage and build quality, with active noise cancelling for a more immersive listening experience. However, they come at a higher price, and are not the best option for gaming or watching TV due to lower scores in those areas. The Soundcore P20i, while more affordable, has better battery life and is rated higher for gaming and TV/video use. They lack active noise cancelling and score lower in soundstage and noise isolation, but are also rated as sweatproof and have wireless charging, which could be important if you're active or want convenience.

What HiFi?

What HiFi? | November 2022
"They are more comfortable and nicer to use than their predecessors, battery life is better and noise-cancelling is now included as part of the package. They’re easy to live with and you could happily listen to them for hours on end without reaching for the pause button. If your budget allows, your ears will be handsomely rewarded."
