The JLab Go Work Wireless headphones might be pricier, but they are specifically designed for comfort during long calls and meetings, with a high-quality microphone and extended battery life, making them suitable for professional use. However, if enjoying music with a fair degree of sound quality for a lower price is your focus, along with having a detachable cable for wired listening, the KZ ZSN Pro earbuds could be a better choice, though they lack a microphone for call support. Keep in mind that neither option is tailored for gaming or TV watching due to latency concerns. Give Feedback

"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."
"Undoubtedly the focus and the star of the show, the ZSN Pro’s bass is big, bold and bangin’. The amount of gusto in the low end should satisfy anyone who likes a large lick of bass and even certified bassheads will probably get a kick out of this."
