JLab - JBuds Air True Wireless Earbud Headphones - Black

Tl;dr: The Jbuds are a must buy if you're looking for an affordable alternative to Apple Airpods while still maintaining good sound quality. They are comfortable/secure in the ear, and possess a decent charge time/battery life. My only nitpick when it comes to these earbuds is the button function inputs - it took a while for me to learn, and even then I find it easier to use my phone to pause/skip songs than the buds's buttons. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Price: This is the Jbuds' biggest draw. Most of its competitors go for $100+ retail, but the Jbuds are sold for a fair $50. Heck, I was lucky enough to nab it for $30 during Best Buy's Black Friday sale week. It's an absolute steal and a great investment. Sound: While nothing worthy of praise, the Jbuds' sound quality is slightly better than the pair of headphones that likely came packaged with your smartphone. There are 3 equalizer options to cycle through - Balanced, Bass Boost, and JLab Signature. I found Balanced to be the worst of the three, it made most of my music sound washed out, however Bass Boost & Signature really brought out the best in my music library. Genre of music definitely matters when picking an equalizer, so you'll have to play around to match your preferences. Comfort: This comes packaged with 3 ear rubber ear tips of varying sizes and 2 rubber cushions to make it more comfortable and fitting in your ear. They remain in my ear while I workout and I do not feel any discomfort during the 2 hours I have them on each session. The only nitpick one may have with these is that they might be clunky to some people. Battery Life: Thankfully, these come with a pill shaped charging case that can juice your earbuds for 14 hours on full charge. The earbuds themselves last around 4 hours of consistent use, and since you have to pop them back in the case, they're almost always at full charge. So essentially, I've only had to charge the case once a week on average. Accessibility: Pairing the earbuds to your phone is a piece of cake. However, the button functions can take a while to get used to. For example, to play or pause a song, you need to double click the button on the LEFT earbud. If you do it on the right earbud, it activates Siri on an iPhone. While double clicking a button on a typical headphone would probably skip the song. It's a minor nitpick not a flaw, so don't let that discourage you from this product.

So here I am. Since Aug-2019, I am trying good earbuds under $50. I don’t wanna spend a fortune for apple earpods. I have used like 10-12 earbuds ( JBL 120, Free, those Chinese ones, even Jabra), but hands down, this is I found best so far that too under 50 bucks. I got it at $30 in BF sale. Cons I did not find so far, Pros 1- Fits good if not perfect. You need to change the tip, large fits me 2- Sound-wise, select the JLAB signature. It's best. You can change the setting by clicking 3 times on any earbuds. The bass mode in JBL is still best though 3- Though buds are a bit hard to press, but it works every time unline somewhere you don’t even know what you are doing 4- Battery, woohoo, what I tell about it – I am using it for 1 month and the battery still says “high”. Use time – 10-20 mins per day average 5- Every time it says, ‘connected’, battery status unlike big brand I can go on and on. In short, BEST among a lot also, Download manual from the JBL site. the best buy has outdated

So I got these earbuds couple days ago and they are amazing. They fit well in my ears and sound really well. Battery life is amazing with these buds too. My only problem with these is how low it sounds compare to the other wireless earbuds I had when it's in full volume. They sound great but not loud enough. I'm not sure if it's something I have to fix in the sounds settings on my S10+ or the EQ settings. But whatever it is, I'll fix it later to make it sound louder. Other than that, these wireless earbuds are amazing and I recommend it if you're not interested in buying a $100+ wireless earbuds.

This is best cheaper alternative to high-quality true wireless earphones/buds. Great sound(inc. bass)comparable to Beats ear buds and I recommend the JLAB Signature EQ, good battery life although not as long-lasting as my Powerbeats3, stays in my ears really well and surprisingly stays in comfortably when laying on my side, blocks out lots of noises thanks to optional cush fins while maintaining sensible safety for yourself when outside, great charging process(the proprietary charger cable plugs into a regular USB charge brick and JLab recommends 5v/1A such as the measly iPhone charger..glad I have tons of those hahah), seamless operation- automatically turns off when inserting in the charge case and turns on when taken out and you're able to control everything from it unlike the Airpods Pro. You can also manually turn it off if you don't intend to charge right away. I may have missed the rest of the pros that I actually meant to say lol. As for the cons, there are a few so far...the charger case is a bit slippery due to its use of cheap plastic, they look goofy at first but looks alright afterwards and it makes weird squeaking noise when adjusting in your ears(after I switched to the large cushion tips) With regards to the the range and quality of phone calls, still need to further use these to judge. Overall, I'd highly recommend these for fellow budget-minded folks out there.

Truly Wireless Earbuds! Been using over a year & they are still going strong! Great sound, bought these for our teenage son initially and he loved them. We’ve bought so many different types of earbuds over the years & must say these are probably the best wireless earbuds we’ve found for under $50! You simply cannot beat this price point for true wireless earbuds with EQ & charging case. Teen son uses used daily & liked because stayed in place. He has since upgraded his device, he’s a gamer. I’ve been using these for over a year now so I can confirm earbuds stay in place & no issues with buds getting loose or falling out, even after wearing few hours. Earbuds appear a little bulky but for under $50, these are the best wireless buds. Yes they are plastic but that is also what makes them so durable. Buds stay firmly in place when worn with included Cush Fins. JLab provides 2 pairs to combine with 3 varying ear tip sizes to create the perfect individual fit for 99% of users. Earbuds are IP55-certified so can withstand sweat or a minor spill, just don’t submerge them. Features include Bluetooth 5.0, 8mm drivers, Auto on & Auto Connect, Earbud Controls…There are 3 EQ settings without needing software or app. Only one minor drawback some users will have is batteries only last 3-4 hours before needing to recharge. However you can wear 1 bud while other charging so you can still use earbuds. Personally I rarely wear that long at one time so while it’s not a drawback for myself, I felt I should include info in my review. Granted you can balance this drawback with the 500 mAh charging case that comes with Earbuds. The charging case is really small, easy to pocket, and the integrated charging solution is handy. So you get about 10 hours extra battery life with case! Sound is well balanced. Noise isolation is pretty good as well. These aren’t noise cancelling, but turning up the volume at a reasonable level & you are isolated fairly well. Overall, for the price point, you cannot go wrong with these earbuds. The JBuds Air are simply the best sounding true-wireless headphones I’ve used at this price point! There are more expensive true-wireless headphones that sound a bit better, but they’re also four or five more times expensive. Quick Info: Adjust volume down: Left bud 1 click Adjust volume up: Right bud 1 click Track back: Left bud press and hold for 1 sec Track forward: Right bud press and hold for 1 sec Play/Pause: Left bud 2 clicks Siri/Google Assistant: Right bud 2 clicks EQ Settings: Left or right bud 3 clicks will cycle through 3 presets. Buy these, you won’t be disappointed for the money you invest.

For the price they are very good earbuds. The tap function at times can be difficult, but it's not a deal breaker. They aren't too big and haven't fallen out of my ear. I can hear clearly during a call and haven't had anyone complain that I wasn't clear during a call. I love the 3 different sound settings and the bass is good. The battery lasts with minimal usage about 2 days. The case is very compact, easy to carry in a purse or small bags. Overall good quality earbuds for a low price!!

I have 2 pairs of Bluetooth headphones one has a wire that goes around the back of my head, and these. I bought the jlabs in hope I can finally be fully wire free. The sound is amazing they work great with my phone as well, I use them when running and mowing never fall out I haven’t had to readjust them or anything. If you can check them before you leave the store though I live 45 mins from Best Buy and the first one I bought had a faulty case. The 2nd ones were perfect. But that goes with any electronic, Best Buy was so great about it and I got a great working earbuds for exactly what I wanted and need!

I purchased these earbuds on sale for $30. I was actually really impressed with the quality for the price. Not much bass to them, but I’m a person that doesn’t use a lot of bass anyway, but the sound quality is really good overall. I don’t think I could have found a nice of a pair anywhere else for the price.
