Our Verdict
Sennheiser HD1 In-Ear / Momentum In-Ear
KZ ZS10
The Sennheiser Momentum In-Ear are a slightly better and more versatile option than the KZ ZS-10 with no mic. The KZ have a better sound quality, they're more comfortable, and they're a lot more durable, thanks to the good build quality and replaceable cable. The Momentum, however, have an in-line remote, which provides control for iOS devices and has a microphone for taking calls, making them more versatile for everyday casual use. They also come with a case and have a slightly more compact design than the KZ ZS-10. On the upside, if you get the mic variant of the KZ, they would be the better headset overall.
