If you prioritize sound quality for music and gaming, the Creative Labs Aurvana Ace 2 is superior, offering very good performance in these areas; however, they're not suited for calls and meetings. They also support lossless audio codecs, which is important if you're after high-fidelity sound, and feature active noise cancelling for quieter environments. Note that they're midrange priced and on the heavier side. In contrast, if you're on a budget and need something for exercise with good durability and sweatproof certification, the Jlab Go Air Sport would be more appropriate, although they fall short in overall sound quality. They are also lighter and have a longer battery life which could be a plus for extended use. Give Feedback

"If you want seriously bass-forward earphones for the gym, you'll be hard-pressed to find a pair more affordable than the JLab Go Air Sport. We like their long battery life and solid water-resistance rating, though we aren’t fans of their finicky on-ear controls and the case’s hardwired charging cable."
