Our Verdict
JBL Endurance Sprint Wireless
AKG N200 Wireless
The JBL Endurance Sprint Wireless are more versatile headphones than the AKG N200 Wireless. The JBL have better isolation performance, which is useful in your daily commute or at the office. Their ear-hook design is great for sports, and you also have a touch-sensitive control scheme, though it seems to be overly sensitive. The JBL also have a better battery life. However, the AKG have physical buttons that offer better feedback and are easier-to-use. The AKG also feel better-built, even if they don’t have an IP rating like the JBL, and they feel more comfortable for most since they don’t enter your ear canal as deeply. The AKG wireless range is significantly better and have less latency.
