JLab JBuds Air

The JBuds Air from JLab are far from perfect, but for $50, they're one of the best bargains you'll find among true wireless earbuds.

Affordable. Powerful bass depth. Three EQ modes. Sweat-resistant.

Earphones can remain connected to phone and drain battery life when docked in case. Buttons can be difficult to operate. Weak battery life.

The JBuds Air's buttons are a little annoying to operate, the earpieces sometimes connect while in the case, and sonically, this is a bass lovers-only affair no matter what mode you're in. But for $50? These things are forgivable. As we said earlier,...

JLab JBuds Earphone review

Part of the reason JLab is able to keep prices so low on the JBuds is because no extras are in the box. Open it up, and you get the earbuds and three sets of different-size silicon ear fittings. The cushions are quite comfortable; in fact, I was...

The JLab JBuds are comfortable and cheap and provide decent sound quality for the price.

The term noise canceling in the JBuds' name is misleading--the phones don't really keep out ambient noise; bass response could be tighter.

If you're looking for an ultra-low-cost replacement for the earbuds that came standard with your MP3 player, the JLab JBuds are a good alternative.

JLab Audio JBuds Air Executive Truly Wireless Review

The JLab Audio JBuds Air Executive are ordinary truly wireless earbuds. They're reasonably well-designed with a compact, low-profile look that should be fairly c...

Well-built earbuds. Different EQ presets built directly into earbuds. Portable design and charging case.

Built-in charging cable can't be replaced on its own if damaged. Battery life shorter than advertised. Confusing controls.

The JLab Audio JBuds Air Executive are alright for mixed usage. Their bass-rich yet bright sound profile isn't designed for neutral listening but can help make your commute more excited and their lightweight design is also good for sports. They...

JBuds Ear Buds

Ear Buds

The silicone in the JBuds Hi-Fi earbuds makes it easy and highly comfortable to wear. They also come with 3 interchangeable sizes to accommodate a user's ear. The ear buds also provide an elevated level of noise isolation to preserve sound quality

The high-frequency sounds of the JBuds Hi-Fi are inadequate and weak

JLab JBuds J3 Earphones

The JBuds J3 Micro Atomic In-Ear Earphones by JLabs, the newest to the JBuds series. I've never had or tried any of the JBuds or other products by JLabs so I was very skeptical about these, overall build quality is very good, actually the main body is...

I think the J3 are one of the best at this price range. The J3 also come in a mic version. They come in a very nice compact cardboard box that is a "frustration free packaging" and i love that! The J3 include a very small rounded hard carry case and 4...

(Rating Hidden)

Truly wireless in-ear headphones look enticing, freeing you from untangling wires. But they often come at a hefty premium, so are cheaper pairs worth considering? The JLab Audio JBuds Air truly wireless earbuds are sweat-resistant, support the high...

Consumer review (cnet.com)

"Waste of money."

I got these based on the previous gen JBuds J2s, which I really liked. These things are NOT a worthy successor; they're tinny, muddy, buzzy; the cord is too short and it's stiff. Cable noise is overwhelming. Every possible epithet you can apply to...

fit (in my ears) was pretty good, so comfy and ok isolation

The worst sound I've ever had from an earbud. Seriously.

Wonderful till they broke

I loved these earbuds. They sounded great, good bass clear sound. Then 2 months Later they broke. Crackling sounds unless you move them around in whatever they are plugged in. Also the ear buds suction cup into your ear and make the sound stop until...
