For active lifestyles, particularly for exercise or sports, the Jlab Go Air Sport would suit you well as they're sweatproof, dustproof, and come with ear hooks for secure fit. However, if you prioritize sound quality and battery life, especially for phone calls and watching TV, the Soundcore P20i could be a better choice as they also offer app-based customization features. The Soundcore P20i are less expensive and include wireless charging, which the Jlab lack. Choose the Jlab for rigorous physical activities and the Soundcore for a balanced everyday use with better personalization and convenience. Give Feedback

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."
