There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
That's the sore point though. That damn battery clip is the ~only~ way to charge the headphones. If you misplace or lose it, you're screwed. They're useless without it. I managed to lose mine within a week of owning them. I'm usually very good of keeping track of that sort of thing. The replacement cost more than half the price of the headphones. If I would have read the details better and understood that this was even a possibility, I would have kept shopping.
Update: After just over a year, the cord where it connects with the controls and charging port has come apart and the wires are showing. At this point, the only thing I can actually recommend about these headphones is the shape of the ear pieces. Need to find a replacement pair now. Wish me luck.
I've owned the Bose Sound Sports for a few years and they have amazing sound with a very good depth and richness. These Freedom 2 earbuds sound good but favor the higher ranges. Even with the equalizer, on the phone app, the Freedom 2 still have a lack of depth in their sound quality.
They're good earbuds though and I'll keep them because the battery life is far superior to many other brands and they have a really low profile in my ear. I had to get the comfort foam ear pieces though. The silicone ear pieces JayBird provides are not quite right for my ears; they hurt and they fall out too much.
So far the JayBird support is non-existent.
My microphone comes on at random times. You can tell because the audio quality drops and you can easily hear anything that touches the mic. Easy to turn off ... but annoying still.
Take a look at the image I attached. Over 4 days and no one looks at it ... yet the 3 people are claiming that they respond in under 5 hours. Sad.

They were good for a couple of weeks, and then stopped charging again. The outside connectors were good. So I popped the back off the unit and examined the inside. Lots of corrosion in there, and obvious signs of deterioration which cannot have happened in the 2 weeks I had them.
Cleaned off that corrosion as best I could, and they charged one more time, and then failed again.
My conclusion is that either they had been sitting for a long time in a very damp environment or they were a used, returned set which didn’t work or failed for the original owner.
They were comfortable for the short time they did work.
Top reviews from other countries
Let's start off with pros:
- Sound quality was decent to start. A bit murky, but good for the price-point.
- They're light, but only without the charging pack (which is an awful idea, I might add)
And now the cons:
- The specially designed fit could be improved. I was able to get them to fit like designed, but that isn't the major flaw. The bigger issue is that the control bar was dangling behind my ear, which made it frustrating to access. The cord between the right speaker and control bar is just way too short. I was able to get used to the "classic" fit, but the balance of the controls and cord extender are very uneven and uncomfortable.
- The cord length extender / condenser is awfully designed. It's large, and clunky, and unfortunately needs to be that way as to not damage the cord. Just disappointing.
- Lastly, and this is a big lastly, the battery / power management is either very poor or just broken. After charging the headphones and the supplied power-pack, I was not able to get the headphones to turn on without having the power-pack attached to them. I figured that maybe the headphones didn't charge and that the power-pack needs to charge the headphones themselves. I let the headphones charge directly from the power-pack, and they turned on independently! Problem solved with a workaround, I thought, until the headphones refused to turn on independently the next day. Nothing in the marketing or the quick start guide mentions that the headphones need the power-pack to work since it's supposed to be a 4 hour + 4 hour split, so I am certain that my headphones shipped defective. After some research, I found a substantial amount of people complaining about the exact same thing, which leads me to believe that this is a very common defect.
Either way, avoid this product. I am going to be returning it immediately.
