If you prioritize battery life and use during exercise, the Jlab Go Air Sport would be a suitable choice due to its longer battery life and sweatproof certification. However, for those seeking a lighter option with a smaller earbud size for possibly greater in-ear comfort, the Skullcandy Dime 2 is more fitting. Both options may not provide the best sound quality for music or calls, so if audio fidelity is your main concern, you might want to consider other models. Neither model supports low latency features, making them less ideal for gaming or watching videos where audio sync is critical. If budget is your main constraint, the Skullcandy Dime 2 generally costs less, albeit with a tradeoff in battery life and moisture protection. Give Feedback

PC Mag

Tim Gideon | April 2022
"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."

Jasper Lastoria | March 2022
"With the low price, it’s a low-risk investment. The Dime 2 is a decent set of backup buds for those times when you don’t want to risk your more upscale buds. If it weren’t for the lackluster battery life, I’d say everyone should have a pair as a spare for music."
