If you're on a budget and need a reliable pair of headphones for work calls, the JLab Go Work Wireless with its boom mic and excellent mic quality might be suitable. However, if you're looking for superior sound quality, particularly for music and gaming, and can invest more, the Sennheiser Accentum Plus with better overall audio performance and active noise cancelling would be the better choice. The JLab is more suited to office use with its removable earcup, while the Sennheiser offers premium features like an app equalizer and low latency, making it great for a variety of audio experiences.

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."
