If you prioritize sound quality and gaming, the Razer Hammerhead True Wireless is superior, featuring better soundstage and low latency suitable for gaming. For those who value microphone quality, comfort for long sessions, and need a versatile option for calls and meetings, JLab Go Work Wireless offers a boom microphone and better comfort ratings. The JLab also has longer battery life and detachable cables for flexibility. However, the Razer earbuds are more portable, have a dedicated gaming mode, and support wireless charging, potentially making them a more convenient choice for on-the-go use despite a slightly higher price.

Headphone Check
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."

The Verge
Chris Welch | August 2019
"This latest set is more “Pro” than not in both looks and features: they offer active noise cancellation, a low-latency gaming mode, and have switched to a in-ear design with silicone tips. Just like many of the company’s laptops and gaming accessories, the 2021 Hammerhead True Wireless include Razer’s full Chroma RGB system. It makes for what Razer calls “the ultimate wireless earbud flex.”"
