For an immersive music-experience and better noise isolation, the JBL Live Pro 2 would be a fitting option, and they also possess Active Noise Cancelling (ANC), beneficial when traveling. If you exercise frequently or worry about the fit during physical activities, Raycon The Everyday Earbuds are more comfortable and offer a better fit with included secure accessories. However, for gaming and video watching purposes, Raycon's could be preferable due to the higher score in these areas despite lacking ANC. Both have similar overall sound quality, but the JBL offers an equalizer and audio control customization through an app, which Raycon lacks. Give Feedback

"The JBL Live Pro 2 TWS occupy an interesting space in the wireless earbuds market. They’re a step up from cheap wireless earbuds and allow you to access better sound quality without having to make the jump to more premium options from the likes of Bose, Sony and Sennheiser. They’re an entertaining listen, easy to use and manage to pack in a lot of useful features. We think they’re well worth a listen."

"Sure, every influencer owns these buds. They’re still pretty good. In this price range, getting anything that seals well in your ears for good soundstage, doesn’t sound like trash, and won’t immediately break is a huge win. The Everyday Buds tick all of those boxes for me, and I intend to use them at least nearly every day; I go to the gym on alternating evenings. Damn it, YouTube. You've cost me good money again."
