If you prioritize long battery life and often use your earbuds for work calls, JLab JBuds Work Wireless might be a better choice as they have a significantly longer battery life and higher mic quality, which is great for calls and meetings. They are over-ear headphones, which generally provide better comfort for extended periods and are equipped with a boom mic for clearer voice transmission. However, they may not be as convenient for exercise due to their larger size. In contrast, Raycon The Everyday Earbuds are more compact and have a stemless design, making them potentially more suitable for exercise and a better fit for on-the-go use. They also support wireless charging, which adds convenience. While their battery life isn't as long as the JLab's, their portability and ease of charging may make up for it. The mic and sound quality are relatively similar, but if you need earbuds more for casual use, not predominantly for work-related calls, Raycon might be the more suitable option for everyday activities.

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."

Parker Hall | January 2023
"Sure, every influencer owns these buds. They’re still pretty good. In this price range, getting anything that seals well in your ears for good soundstage, doesn’t sound like trash, and won’t immediately break is a huge win. The Everyday Buds tick all of those boxes for me, and I intend to use them at least nearly every day; I go to the gym on alternating evenings. Damn it, YouTube. You've cost me good money again."
