I'd say IEMs if the left ear of mine didn't start dying 3 months after use (it's also wired)
Other than that they're just superb in sound quality it's night and day to my headphones and headsets

Are those almost the same prices or no?, every price comes with their own quality no

My IEMs were much much cheaper compared to my headphones (somewhere around $30 vs $150)
And the IEMs were much clearer, had better highs and good bass, and you could even tune them on the ear pieces themselves with 4 switches
But then again, the left ear now barely works so...

I did buy cheap iems to replace my headset but didn't see any significant increase in foots detection like the people said and I couldn't play back to back games on them . My Ears hurt in long usage (more than an hour).

IEM's are so much better just make sure don't wear it for too long always have some breaks in between

Just get IEMs; don't use them for high volumes, as they lower the risk of hearing damage. Mid to low volumes are the usual, same as the bass; adjust to your preference if necessary

Get the Moon Drop Stellaris IEMs, honestly, any of Moon Drop products is goated. Personally I like Stellaris because I've used it the most

Too expensive for first-time IEM users, Stellaris is good for starters. It's not expensive, it's also not cheap, it's just right

wrap it up IEMs aren't as durable as hyperX cloud 2 IEM's will last a year MAX and im being generous a hyperx cloud 2-3 will be buried with you if treat it half decent but if your willing to spend alot of money upgrading them IEMs

yeah but it differs alot between users some say they last months and some say years if you want longevity get the boring shit its boring for a reason also you gotta buy a mic on top of that you could probably get a pair of IEMs and a outside MIC cheaper but again buy the boring shit save up and greed out get peak IEMS Peak outside mic mixer etc
also In ears like pods cause itchy-ness and are worse in general for ear health compared to the hyperX at least

i'm kinda regretting going all in on IEM. if you have sensitive skin like me, don't bother buying. it will make your ears itchy, easily get dirty, and sometimes even makes it rusted. its great for all kinds of media, and also quite cheap. but pick the one with full plastic if you have skin issues.
like tangzu waner. its 20$-around 300kIDR

Unless you are really competitve in val and want to hit radiant and shit, id suggest just buying sony xm6 and either use bluetooth or wired. i recently bought the xm6 , upgraded from my xm4 and its insane. masterpiece. i use it with bluetooth. dont notice any delay. insane noise cancellation and sound quality
