<$200 wireless earbud recommendations?

So I got the Raycons because their ads took me in and I loved the convenience:
Wireless charging
50+ hour playback
decent enough mic for voice chat and prevents echo loops (speakers + mic + someone talking = hell)
no wires to tangle or watch out for while I work
keep my ears from melting during the summer (headphones are just too hot)

I loved how convenient they were so much it took me until just recently to realize that they actually sound pretty tinny. In fact I'd grade the sound as below average. But I'm not really clued into what the good wireless earbuds are so suggestions are welcome.

If you wanna go cheap these are really good.

Personally used these over a year now, battery is great. (maybe not 50 hours, but i can charge the carrying pack with my phone as it has wireless charging).
Soundstage is great for the price. I bet a lot better then those raycons. But still for <50$ cant expect to much.

 

And the only time the mics not working perfectly for the other end of the phone call is when i have headwind on the bike going 25Km/h.
But for the rest pretty good even in wind.

When i ask for more specs, don't expect me to know the answer!

Jabra 75t are what I've personally been using. They aren't "audiophile" earbuds as the bass is a little heavy/bloated but there's an app to tune the EQ a bit more to your liking. They are perfect for work (which is what I wear around the office), but not for clinical/analytical listening or mastering an album. They event support multi-link so I have them paired to my phone AND my work desktop. No need to constantly re-connect devices as it's connected to both and remembers that configuration.
