If your focus is on music and calls, the Earfun Wave Pro may be the better choice, as it delivers a 'Very Good' overall sound and mic quality, and it's rated 'Excellent' for music and calls. It also supports LDAC for higher-quality audio over Bluetooth and a low latency mode, which can be beneficial for videos and gaming. The Wave Pro has a longer battery life, which is great for extended use. However, if you need active noise cancelling for a quieter listening experience, especially during air travel, the JLab Jbuds Lux ANC has that feature, which the Wave Pro lacks. The Jbuds also offer app customization with an equalizer and controls, which might enhance your user experience if you like to fine-tune audio settings. The choice between the two would depend on whether you prioritize sound quality and battery life (Earfun) or the convenience of active noise cancelling and app features (JLab). Give Feedback
