Our verdict
The MTW4 Earbuds takes the performance lead with a 25% higher overall score, driven by its more shader cores, more of memory, and higher TFLOPS of compute power. In gaming benchmarks at 1440p, it delivers roughly 0% more frames per second across demanding titles like Cyberpunk 2077 and Alan Wake 2.
However, the Tune 770NC Headphones tells a compelling value story. At $100 versus the MTW4 Earbuds's $300 price tag, it costs 200% less while delivering performance that's only 25% behind. Its of memory is still more than enough for 1440p and even 4K gaming in most titles.

The MTW4 Earbuds only makes sense if you need the absolute maximum performance for native 4K ray tracing, professional 3D rendering, or AI workloads where the extra VRAM and compute power provide a tangible advantage.
