Summary
The HTC NE79 takes first place at $7.15 landed, and its 5-star value score explains why. Fit scores 1, though. At the gym, that's the first thing you'd notice. The QCY T13 ANC runs $25.89 and adds IPX5 sweat resistance plus 30H playtime, with a 4.95 rating. It sits second because fit stays at 1 while the price climbs. Baseus EP10 Pro lands at $24.37 with IP55 and LDAC, a 4.83 rating, and a 3-star value score. QCY MeloBuds Pro at $30.67 brings 46dB hybrid ANC and 34H battery, but value sits at 3. The QCY Crossky C50 open-ear clip-on closes the list at $31.69 with a 4.87 rating and a sports design. Balanced value here means the cheapest pick wins on price and value, not on gym fit. If sweat resistance matters more than the $18.74 gap, the T13 ANC is the practical step up.
