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.

Not the Shokz ones, that's for sure. I actually \*like\* music. (Just lolz!) Kidding aside, I'm wildly fussy when it comes to earbuds. I've had some more expensive ones like Jabra Elites and others, but they always fail within a year, and I have truthfully never found anything better sounding and longer lasting through daily sweat, snow, and accidental washing/drying than the lowly $25 JLAB GO POP+. YMMV of course. I OTOH will die on this hill.

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.

I think JLab Go Pop+ True Wireless Earbuds (or similar budget JLab buds) are honestly solid for daily use if you don’t want to drop more cash, they sound good enough for music, podcasts, and workouts at that price.

These are okay for the price, great battery life [j lab go pop](https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/jlab-go-pop-true-wireless-earbuds-black)

I think the J Lab Go Pop + are great. I have small ears but they don’t both me, still in without a problem on long runs, sound pretty good, and are less than $25 so when I lose them or break them I’m not crying.

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.
