Quantum TWS

I’m currently using JBL Quantum TWS.

I’m quite satisfied. Its sound is good, and in my country it’s available for about $69.

I have had two pairs of these and cannot recommend them. Battery life took a nosedive at about the 2 month mark in both cases. I have since bought a pair of “Maxonair” earbuds with the 2.4ghz dongle and they are significantly better so far in terms of price, connectivity, sound quality and battery life. Time will tell if the battery has any more longevity.

JBL quantum TWS. I put my phone on Airplane mode, leave it at home then connect the earbuds to my Apple Watch series 7 and hit the playlists. Only downside is the battery life; at 45min the left earbud dies. Trying to get a Airpods Pro gen 2 but can't find any in my country nor a reputable amazon seller who would ship in my country.

Just tested the JBL Quantum TWS, they work for audio and microphone on the switch 2. I also make them work with a USB A to C adaptor to connect them on the front of the switch base. 

To add, the battery life seems to be significantly worse over 2.4 than Bluetooth. I’ve relegated these to my work backpack as they’re still decent for teams calls. I have a pair of Steelseries buds that I use for gaming now that have a much better battery life and work with my Xbox. The software on the JBL buds is a little obnoxious as well. Again, works well with the phone over Bluetooth. The constantly popups for the software reminder on PC are annoying

I wouldn't get these, even at this discount. sound quality is fine, but battery life was poor and despite me not using them all that much, couple years later the battery is unusably bad; other earbuds I own haven't degraded like them. Even when new I'd get battery low warning after like 2.5 hours maybe. Oh also the mic is worse than you'd expect. they were novel when new being basically the only 2.4ghz earbuds out there, but there's so much competition now there's no reason to buy these. For this price range I would probably buy chinese no name ones over these; you'd at least get something with decent battery life.

If you're looking at wireless, you realistically want something with a low latency transmitter. Bluetooth latency varies between about 90ms in ideal circumstances (both devices support a low-latency codec - which most gaming devices don't) and 300ms (this is what you'll get on most earbuds). 90ms is noticeable but you can tune it out, especially in slower-paced games. 300ms is jarring. A handful of Bluetooth earbuds support the latest GMAP profile, which can manage sub-40ms latency, but as far as I know, there's nothing out there that can transmit GMAP without a dongle. If you're looking at JBL, the JBL Quantum TWS and TWS Air are their offerings here. They sound pretty good, and you're looking at around 60ms of latency with the dongle, which is just about noticeable if you're looking for it but shouldn't be too distracting in most games. I'm not aware of any Tribit earbuds with low latency dongles, so I wouldn't look at them. There are a few earbuds on the market with lower latency, with the Sony INZONE Buds, the ROG Cetra True Wireless SpeedNova, the PrismXR Vega T1 and the Hecate GX05 all coming in around 30ms. None of these will particularly impress audiophiles, but they should all sound at least OK, and can all be EQed to taste. If you're looking for wired, you don't need to look at gaming specific stuff, and any of the great IEMs out now should work well.
