If you value portability and sound isolation in a budget-friendly package, the Creative Labs Aurvana Trio LS earbuds may suit you; however, they lack wireless capability and sweatproof certification, which could be a downside if you're active. Alternatively, if you need headphones for calls and meetings, or if you prefer the comfort and durability of over-ear headphones with the flexibility of both wired and wireless options, the JLab Go Work Wireless would be a better choice. They have a better battery life and a boom mic for clear communication, but they are not as portable or suitable for air travel compared to the Aurvana Trio LS. Give Feedback

Forbes
Mark Sparrow | December 2021
"These super-affordable wired earphones are some of the best I’ve heard in recent years. For the money they are unbeatable. And before you say: “I can’t use them as there’s no headphone jack on my smartphone!”, they can work with jack-less phones by using the brilliant little Creative SXFI headphone amp which plugs into a smartphone’s USB or Lightning port (with an adapter) and produces the most sublime audio output."

"If you are going to criticise the JLab Go Work, it would be for the cables, which are to some extent too short for their intended use, and for its rather harsh treble reproduction above moderate volume levels in music mode. However, the call quality during telephone calls and video conferences in voice mode via wireless and via cable is impeccable. This handy Bluetooth headset also scores points with its excellent battery life and support for multipoint connections."
