If you're looking for budget-friendly, multipurpose headphones with a good comfort level and excellent microphone quality for calls and remote work, the JLab JBuds Work Wireless could be suitable. They also have decent sound for music and gaming. However, if you're inclined towards high-end sound quality with superior noise isolation for music, gaming, and videos, and you value advanced features like an app equalizer and AI technology for optimizing your mental health and activities, the Master & Dynamic MW75-Neuro may be worth the extra cost. The latter also supports low-latency codecs, making them better for watching TV and gaming without audio delay. Keep in mind, though, the MW75-Neuro might not be as comfortable for longer periods and they are significantly heavier. Give Feedback

PC Magazine
Tim Gideon | February 2022
"The JLab JBuds Work is an affordable headset-headphone hybrid that you can use to listen to music in stereo and communicate on video calls thanks to a retractable boom mic, and we particularly like its convenient mono and passive wired modes. You won't find any frills here like you will with the costlier Jabra Evolve2 65 or Plantronics Voyager 4220 UC, but for less than half the price, the JBuds Work is an effective lower-cost alternative."
