If cost is a major concern, JLab Go Work Wireless headphones might suit you as they are budget-friendly and have excellent mic quality, making them suitable for calls and meetings. However, they are poor choices for music, gaming, and TV. Sennheiser Momentum Sport, despite being pricier, offers better sound quality across various content types, lower latency suitable for gaming, and sports features like sweatproof certification and tracking capabilities; it might be the versatile choice for both your fitness activities and entertainment needs. Both offer good battery life, but if you are in noisy environments often, Sennheiser's active noise cancelling might be more beneficial. 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."
"We hadn't been expecting a new pair of dedicated sports buds but the surprise was nonetheless exciting. I got to try out the new buds at CES 2024 and while they have stayed true to delivering that "signature" Sennheiser sound, with a wide soundstage and strong sense of detail, it’s the extra wearable tech inside them that stands out to me against the best workout headphones."
