I'm currently on the market for some TWS earphones and i cant decide which one to buy.

i've been starved of my music for a few months now on my daily commutes cause my phone's headphone jack is broken, when i plug in any headphones/headsets only the left one works, and the cheap heaphones that i have are also broken and only the right side works, so when i plug it in, i get to joyfuly listen to alot of nothing, ( i have really really incredibly bad luck with wired headphones/earphones, one of the sides usually stops working by the end of the second week, and the other one follows a week or 2 after), i dont want to fix the phone cause i want to buy a new one soon anyways, and tbh, i've grown sick and tired of wired headsets and earphones, the more wires there are, the more failure points there are for my bad luck to strike me, i had a headphone die on me cause the wire gave out or was faulty exactly in the middle of the wire, far from any connections , solder points or weak spots,atm i'm doing my best to stay wireless while i'm on the computer, i got myself a cheap nockoff Havic bluetooth headset that works well and has been holding up nicely so far, but since its a nockoff, the material and build quality arent as good as a genuine one, so it tends to hurt my ears and the top of my head after a long period of use, not from bad sound quality, but from the pressure that is on my head and ears during that period, so i'm probably and most likely going to be replacing this headset with these earphones,

Now with the backstory and the reasoning behind the purchase out of the way, lets get to the details and what i want from my earphones, i'll rank these by priority:

1- my budget is limited to 50$ tops, i cant justify paying any higher for them with the current paycheck that i have ( thats already more than a third of my salary)

2- a good battery life on the earphones themselves when they are in my ear and i'm listening to music, the last thing i want is to have to put them away to charge every couple of hours for like 1h30min like many of the fake airpods rolling around these days , so anything from 6 hours and up would be highly considered,5 hours is ok, 4 is the minimum

3-good sound quality, not too picky about the base,mids,lows or highs, just nothing too bad thats makes everything else sounds like you are listening to music  with your head in the ground

4- a good battery life on the case, enough to last for a full day of use, but its not that important, something like +12h on the case is more than enough, but ofc, the longer the better

5-the ability to use just one of the earphones at a time for when i'm in bed and laying on my side, i dont know what its called, so something like seperate pairing for each one would be nice, and if possible.

6- enough range and a strong enough bluetooth single that it doesnt cut or crack when i put it in my pocket, i'm usually right next to what i'm using to listen with, so most likely any bluetooth 5.0 ones will be good

7-a good enough mic or just a decent one to answer calls on the fly or the occasional voice chat while playing something ( i'm not a big talker/caller, so its not that important) , just for the occasional use

8-size doesnt matter too much,just a good enough fit so they dont fall out, but the less they stick out the better, i absolutly hate the airpods design and i just find it stupid and idiotic looking design, it looks like you were using Q-tips to clean your ears and just forgot to remove them afterwards when you were done.

9- and for last, if possibel with all of the already high demands for the price i'm paying for, quick charge would be nice, like an hour or something like that for 10 minutes of charge time

I've been scawering the internet for the past few days for good ones, and its hard to chose one, too many options, at first i was wanting to buy the Raycon e50s after seeing Linus's video on the 50 cheap wireless earbuds, then a friend showed me the redmi airdots, since those are redily availabe in my country, and are relatively cheap and also arent knockoff airpods ( i really hate aipods), then i wanted to go with the soundpeats true free, then bomaker sifi, the jlab jbud air icon, then tiamat titan ( for that sweet 7 to 8h charge with 72h charge total with the case) but now i'm leaning towards the bomaker sifi's

if any of you has owned any good ones that you can recommand, i would really appreciat it if you would enlighten me, any and all recommandations are welcomed and thank you in advance and sorry for the long post
