If you're looking for something that won't break the bank and you prefer the portability and convenience of earbuds, the JLab Go Air Pop could be the better choice for you. They are good for exercise, surprisingly lightweight, and have a very long combined battery life due to their charging case, making them great for on-the-go use. However, if your priority is clear calls and you spend a lot of time in meetings, the JLab Go Work Wireless headphones will serve you better with their excellent mic quality. These headphones also offer more comfort for extended wear and are suitable for office use with their detachable cable and boom mic. Keep in mind, though, they are not as portable as the earbuds.

"The JLab GO Air POP is a great option for anyone on a tight budget. This pair of true wireless earbuds checks all the boxes for earbud essentials, and performs pretty well in most areas. The microphone isn't great, but that's to be expected for something this inexpensive."

Maike Paeßens | 2021
"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."
