If price is a major concern and you are looking for good sound quality, the 1More Triple Driver earbuds are significantly less expensive and offer a well-balanced audio experience. However, if you're willing to invest more for additional features, the Sony WF1000XM3 earbuds provide active noise cancellation for better sound isolation and a more immersive listening experience. Moreover, the Sony model has a longer battery life and supports Sony's 360 Reality Audio, enhancing your listening experience with compatible applications. Keep in mind, though, that the 1More earbuds do not have noise cancellation and have a shorter battery life compared to the Sony. Give Feedback

Build Quality
8.3/10
9.0/10
The Sony WF1000XM3 has excellent build quality, while the 1More Triple Driver has very good build quality.
"For under $99 USD this has a good sound that, when paired with the build quality and design, makes for a solid pair of everyday buds. Should you get them? If you’re tired of buying cheap earbuds and want to treat yourself to something a little nicer, I say go for it."
"Wireless earbuds are a dime a dozen, and the Sony WF-1000XM3 makes it easy to justify the cost. The design and comfort are good, and the connection strength is consistent. While the lack of aptX or LDAC support is a big drawback, DSEE HX processing improves low-quality audio files. If you want stylish active noise canceling (ANC) earbuds, the WF-1000XM3 needs to be at the top of your list."
