Generation & platform

The scores rank quality. This is the other question: is the newer one actually newer technology, or the same platform in a new shell?

Same generation

Both shipped in 2023. These are the same generation of hardware - nothing in the radio, the codecs or the noise cancelling separates them. Nothing separates them on convenience features either, so the choice comes down to tuning and price.

  • Pro:Energetic and engaging sound signature
  • Pro:Lightweight and comfortable fit
  • Con:Bass emphasis may not suit purists
  • Con:Can distort at higher volumes
