If you are looking for affordable wireless earbuds, JLab's latest Go Air Pop is open for pre-orders. Priced at $20, these are undoubtedly one of the most inexpensive true wireless earbuds in the US. If you are not feeling confident about a $20 device, the brand even offers a two-year warranty.
Moving on to features, the Go Air Pop is rated IPX4 for water and sweat resistance. Each bud weighing around 3.7 grams houses a 6 mm driver. Since both buds packs in MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) microphone, you can use them independently on a call. As per the manufacturer, the Go Air Pop offers a Bluetooth range of around 30 ft. It supports SBC and AAC codecs along with A2DP, AVRCP, and HSP protocols.
The buds rely on touch-based gestures to control music playback and answering calls. You can also summon a voice assistant on Android smartphones. JLab has added three sound presets such as Bass Boost, Balanced, and JLab Signature. You can cycle through these modes directly using touch gestures without having to install a companion app.
JLab claims that each earpiece holds a 43 mAh battery with up to 8 hours of playback. Moreover, the carry case holds a 350 mAh battery that can top up each bud for additional 24 hours. The carry case comes with an in-built USB cable and takes around 2 hours to fully charge.
You can pre-order JLab Go Air Pop using this link. The buds are expected to ship later this month. However, if you are not willing to wait, you can consider SkullCandy's Dime earbuds priced at $25 but are currently going for $19.89 on Amazon.
