If price is a deciding factor, the JLab Go Work Wireless is significantly less expensive and could be a cost-effective choice. For conference calls or if you need a mic for clear communication, the JLab has a boom microphone that, while not removable, can fold away. However, the Soundcore Space One has LDAC support, which offers high-resolution audio over Bluetooth—a big plus if sound quality is paramount. The Soundcore Space One also has longer battery life. Ultimately, if budget is tight, JLab might suffice, but for higher audio quality and battery life, consider the Soundcore Space One. Give Feedback

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."

Tim Gideon | September 2023
"The Anker Soundcore Space One noise-cancelling headphones are stylish, comfortable, and affordable. They offer better active noise cancellation than we expect for the price, and their sculpted audio impresses thanks to the adjustable EQ and support for the hi-res LDAC codec. Overall, they’re an excellent value and well worth your attention if you're on a budget."
