The 7hz Timeless is a more budget-friendly option and provides very good sound quality with a planar driver, which is often valued by audiophiles for its precision and detail in music. However, it lacks features such as a microphone, active noise cancelling, and is not sweatproof, making it less versatile for calls or exercise. The Moondrop Blessing 3, while more expensive, offers excellent sound quality with a hybrid driver setup and better portability, but it also lacks a microphone and active noise cancelling. Both earbuds are wired with detachable cables and are not optimized for wireless convenience. If sound quality for music is your top priority and you're looking to save a bit of money, go for the 7hz Timeless; if you prefer earbuds from a very recent release with a more premium build, and can stretch your budget, consider the Moondrop Blessing 3.

Kazi Mahbub Mutakabbir | May 2023
"7Hz picked a bold name for the Timeless and frankly, got very close to justifying their word choice. Most importantly, the Timeless are good to go in stock form, so you don’t have to worry about source-matching and such. I can recommend the 7Hz Timeless to those who do not mind a dash of brightness up top, want a taste of planar in IEM form, and want one of the most resolving pair of earphones in the $150 - $300 price range."

"The Moondrop Blessing 3 has excellent imaging performance, especially for the price. Pair that with its neutral tonality with slight elevations towards both ends of the frequency response, and the Blessing 3 technically proficient set of IEMs that are also enjoyable to listen to every day."
