If noise cancellation is important for you, go for the JLab Jbuds Lux ANC since they offer Active Noise Cancelling which the Raycon The Everyday Earbuds lack, making the JLabs more suitable for air travel and noisier environments. However, the Raycons are more compact and sweatproof, making them a better fit for exercise. For gamers, neither are ideal due to poor gaming scores, but Raycon's low latency feature gives it a slight edge in this area. Both offer good sound for music, but if you take a lot of calls, neither are particularly strong in microphone quality. If you're looking for more runtime without charging, Raycon provides a longer battery life with additional hours stored in their case, alongside the convenience of wireless charging. Give Feedback

How the JLab Jbuds Lux ANC and the Raycon The Everyday Earbuds compare to other earbuds and headphones
"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."
