Which is better for running and the gym?

The Beige clip pair is the safer pick for heavy sweat because it is rated sweatproof and waterproof, and the open hook stays put. The A9Pro has better sound and ANC but no water rating, so keep it out of rain and heavy sweat.

Does the A9Pro really cancel noise?

Yes. It uses dual ANC to cut surrounding noise and ENC to clean up your voice on calls. The Beige clip pair is open by design, so it blocks very little.

Which lasts longer on a charge?

The A9Pro. It gives about 8 hours per charge and up to 40 hours total with the case. The Beige pair is rated at about 5 hours.

Is the touch-screen case worth stepping up to?

If you change volume, EQ or ambient mode often, yes. The screen lets you do it without your phone, and it also finds a lost earbud. If you only press play, the clip pair is simpler.

Will the Beige clip earbuds stay in during workouts?

The ear hook holds them over the ear rather than inside the canal, which suits most people during sport. Fit varies by ear shape, so check the hook tension if your ears are small.

Which is better for calls?

The A9Pro. ENC and the in-ear seal keep your voice clearer in noisy places. The open clip design lets background sound reach the mic.

A9Pro Wireless Earbuds vs Beige Bluetooth Ear Clip Earbuds

The A9Pro is the stronger product: a smart touch-screen case, Bluetooth 5.4, dual ANC plus ENC, 13mm drivers and up to 40 hours of total playtime. The Beige ear-clip model is a basic open-style hook earbud with about 5 hours of playback and a sweatproof build. Buy the A9Pro if sound, noise cancelling and battery life matter. Buy the clip pair only if you want a loose, hook-style fit that keeps your ears open.

Choose the A9Pro if you want active noise cancelling, a touch-screen case and long total battery life for commuting, calls or training.
Choose the Beige ear-clip earbuds if you prefer an open, hook-style fit that stays put during sweaty workouts and you don't need noise cancelling.
