Beats fit pro vs Sony LinkBuds S vs Air Pods Pro (gen 1) ?

Which one out of these is the best option ? I’m currently using an iPhone 11, but I wouldn’t mind giving up the fluid connectivity of Airpods if the sound is better on the Sony’s.

Priorities: 1) Sound quality. Want something well tuned and balanced, that doesn’t distort the music.

2) Comfort. Something light weight, comfortable for hours, stays in the ears dueing running, cycling, gym.

3) Battery life and reliability/durability

4) ANC & Transparency other bells and whistles. Features, do they work well or are just gimmicky ?

Budget: 200$

Any other offerings ? The XM4’s I feel are too bulky. If I can’t make my mind up, I’ll probably just go with the Lightning Earbuds for 20$. I’ve also had a pair of AirPods gen 2 I wouldn’t mind buying another one.
