Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Baseus at 4.3 against Sound Blaster Connect's 1.6. Baseus also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (321 vs 13). Sound Blaster Connect's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 22) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
