Poll: Do you prefer headphones or earbuds?

The source is Sony.

There's a lot to consider when listening to music, from the streaming service to the actual headphones you're going to use. We want to know which style you prefer, because there are many different types of headphones out there, each with its own benefits.

Some people prefer headphones or headsets, which is a popular option for gaming. These can come in wired or wireless flavors. With wired, you'll get the best listening experience, particularly with over-hear designs, which can provide a more immersive listening experience. Even with the best wireless headphones, there will be some compression and you will have to consider battery life.

The Sony WH-1000XM4 has great audio, amazing battery life, and the option to connect a 3.5mm jack. The Sony WH-1000XM4 are worth a look for the holidays because of the great Black Friday deals.

Earbuds are less cumbersome than headphones and are more compact. The audio experience will not match up with wireless earbuds. Over the years, they've improved a lot on that front and with battery life, particularly when looking at the best wireless earbuds. You can get up to eight hours of listening with ANC on, with a few more charges from the case, with the new Jabra Elite 7 Pro.

If you prefer the physical connection, you can always go with wired earbuds, but they could get in the way if you go to the gym.
