Headphone (1) has a full parametric eq so you can really tune them to your listening preferences. Same with Ear products, I have ear(2) and ear 2024 and they are both really fine tuned for myself and they take to it really well. I have noticed their default tuning has a ton of sibliance though but you can eq most of that out

I can give my experience as I use two of these for different things. The Sony I use for work (at Amazon), and for the CMF i have two pairs; one I use for working out, and the other for general pc use when I don’t feel like using my over ears. The Sony’s are solid. Despite a light sweat (I work on the docks) they stay in 99% of the time (and even if one falls out it’s weeks apart) but I do have to twist them in kinda far. It’s not uncomfortable, but it *is* noticeable for about 15 minutes and I typically have them in from three and half to four hours. The cmf buds 2 are ones I’d likely reccomend for your use case. They have a longer battery for less charging (my workout ones stay in the car) and they genuinely pretty comfortable. Even with pretty intense movements (like deadlifts) and a proper sweat I rarely have one fall out. The touch controls are the one complaint I have as it can take an extra press to get it to register, but it doesn’t bother me as I’m on my phone anyways between sets and at my pc it’s a none issue.

I have the cmf and the Baseus bp1. Both are great and both have apps. I’ve been using mostly the Samsung galaxy pro3 and currently I bought the Bose quiet comfort 2nd gen and those sound better than the budget friendly buds. I don’t have a problem with battery life but I tend to switch out depending on which phone or tablet I use. I think you’d do well with the Baseus even if you find they don’t meet your needs it isn’t a lot of money lost( that’s how I look at it) the cmf may also fit your needs. Take a look at status between anc I have those and love them, I might get the x pro they just released. You can get the status for around 100 right now. Status also have a decent app.

I don’t know about wired but I have about 10 different ear buds ranging from budget to the premium. Status between anc are great and they have an app. Think they are on sale for about a 100. The nothing CMP also are pretty good and have great anc I have the cmp plus and the cmp 2 also have an app and also have good anc their about 60 and below depending on which one you choose. I have the AirPod pro3 and the Powerbeats pro2 both have great anc but works best with Apple. I have the Samsung galaxy pro 2, great but works best with Samsung and pro 3 ( I think). Those are more expensive but works best with Samsung. The others I have are are open ear and they are ok but it takes a bit to get use to how they feel. I’d check out the status between anc, love those and they work with iOS and android. For me the buds have different case use. Some I use connected to the tv so the other half can sleep or so I don’t have to hear his snoring. Others are for the gym and other are for chemo so I can try to zone out during treatment ( chemo is very boring, just a bunch of people being pumped with crap to kill crap). The AirPod 3pro I use at home to block out the noise at home( dogs barking, partner yelling at the game on tv, it’s always loud as we have home theaters system on every tv. Give the Nothing and status a look, I’d look at a few YouTube videos to get a better idea.

The battery problem is caused by improper use. You need to know how TWS earphones work. The software is more than correct. The sound is very good for this price. There will be 5 days better but your budget constraint is strong.

CMF Buds Pro 2 are much better than the P30i and Baseus EP10 Pro. I've owned the P30i, Baseus, Dot 3i, and the standard CMF Buds 2 and the CMFs are better.
