If you're on a budget and need a versatile headset suitable for calls and work, the JLab JBuds Work Wireless is a wise pick, featuring a boom mic for clear communication and the convenience of both wireless and wired connections. However, if you're focused on fitness and wireless freedom, the Sennheiser Momentum Sport offers features like sweat and dust resistance, health tracking, and optimized audio codecs for better sound fidelity, but at a higher price. The JBuds are better for office use and long battery life, while the Momentum Sport excels in physical activity support and has active noise cancelling for noisy environments. 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."

Amelia Schwanke | January 2024
"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."
