JLab - GO POP+

The best and most reliable earphones I have are the JLAB GO POP+. I've used them in extreme cold and heat, they've gone through the washer and dryer, and the charge lasts forever. They cost $25 and sound better than almost every more expensive pair I've owned. Runner up would be Jabra Elite Active series for me, but I've killed too many of them with sweat and they cost like 4x the price. To be fair, they always replace them under warranty, but it'd be cool if they didn't break instead. We need to stop pretending Shokz sound anything remotely adjacent to "good." They do not. They serve a purpose, and if that purpose serves you, great, but they do not sound objectively "good" in any sense of the concept as it relates to listening music in the real world. IOW, if you bought any other product to listen to while not running and it sounded like Shokz, you'd assume it was broken.

You said good sound quality. Objectively Shokz are off the table then. They'll allow you to hear your surroundings, but NO ONE is using them because they're the great sound option. I used to say the Jabra Elite series was best. They sound great but they're kind of expensive and I've killed too many of them. My go-to now is JLAB GO POP+. They sound as good as the JABRA and I've put them through the washer and dryer. They cost 20bux.

Thank you! This input helped me out a lot! I ended up going with JLab go pop+ and they fit my ear so much better. They also have a cute see-through plastic retro design.

Jlab go pop+ but going to try shokz when the costo sales starts

Anker soundcore a30i are my favorite right now. Also jlab go pop+, but they don't have the noise canceling. The anker you can find on sale for $20 pretty regularly, and they're the best buds I've ever worn for fit, clarity and noise canceling. And I have probably 30 sets including beats. I had a previous set, and one bud started buzzing. I filled a claim, answered a few questions, and they sent me a replacement set within the week. Customer services was slow to reply to email, like 24 hour responses, but still replaced easily. The next pair has been perfect. I also like the tozo and jlab open ear. And the jlab jbuds mini are the smallest in case I've ever seen, and it fits in my keychain.

My JLab Go Pop+ Bluetooth earbuds have been going strong, picked them up at Ross I think? $20

Jlab Go pop+  I've had them 5 months. I listen to audiobooks with them. I've only had to charge them once in all that time.

Honestly, your budget range is so broad it's confusing. I mean, the Go Pop+ is nearly flawless for its price point to me—it has excellent passive noise cancellation, warm sound quality, and the included charging cable is super convenient. But for just $10 more, the sound quality makes a huge difference.

I work as a welder in industrial construction. I go through earbuds like babe Ruth did chewing tobacco. I’ve run the gamut of super cheap earbuds on Amazon - because why buy expensive ones? they all get thrashed the same. The only two sub $25 ones that I’ve enjoyed, have held up well (all things considered), good battery life and sound halfway decent are the Anker Soundcore p20i and the Jlab Go Air Pop+

I have owned the go air pops, something like 20 bucks , and they were the best earbuds I ever used. But I had only used garbage earbuds so when the sound quality jlab produces floored me.Unfortunately after heavy and extreme and I mean extreme use in a very dirty environment, after a year the range suddenly cut down to the point they wouldn't pick up from my shirt pocket to my ear.. I didn't push jlab for a warranty because I felt like I'd gotten my measly 20ish buck worth from them and didn't fault jlab due to the extreme circumstances I used them in daily. I immediately went to Walmart and bought some go pop+ buds , these had app access and I could customize the controls and manipulate the sound and other features. I was as satisfied with them as before but the be aware feature removed the need to wear one at a time at work like usual and I was stoked. Battery lasted a 10 hour shift in both pairs. About a week after, I was on the jlab app and seen the mini buds.. these got my attention because my only wish was for them to be smaller. I got my ass in the car went to Walmart, and bought a set. Those tiny things were every bit as good as the bigger ones except my battery went out around 8 hrs. Sometimes I work 12 hours and always work 10, so shit on payday I went and scooped me another pair .. That was about a year ago and the the two mini pairs are still kicking , and I really like them. If they bit the dust tomorrow I'd have another pair by sundown.. I'm sure there's more expensive buds that are better. Jlab probably makes better buds themselves. But in my opinion, for 20-40 bucks the jlab go air pops, go pop +, and jbuds mini can't be beat. I can't speak on their customer service because I didn't try them on the warranty, I work in a hot asa filthy steel mill and the fact they lasted a year was impressive to me. And even so, I think It would have been a dickhead move to push the warranty claim like I'd be using them under normal conditions instead of wearing them for 10 hours a day swimming in sweat in the pits of hell.

Okay, so the smallest fully in ears I have are the Jlab Go Air Pop+, at around $25, they aren't bad for the price. Getting a bit bigger, the Rose Ceramics at around $40, but hard to get hold of now. If you do want good quality, which is fair, the AirPods Pro are great, much better than the base ones. SountPeats T3 Pro, are also smallish stems. Taking things in a more radical direction is the SoundPEATS Q40 those are wireless but have a wire connecting them, they do have hooks, but they come with a variety of sizes, and they are removable. I have had a few specialist, very small buds come through, but most of those are cheap and nasty, so I do not keep hold of them.
