Jaybird Run XT

JayBird's Run XT true wireless earbuds sound excellent and feature a super-secure, waterproof design.

Excellent audio performance. Five-band EQ. Waterproof. Secure fit for exercise.

Poor battery life. Frustrating buttons.

Jaybird's Run XT earphones offer excellent audio playback with five-band EQ to match. If sound is your top priority, this is the true wireless pair to get. That said, the JBL UA True Wireless Flash earbuds feature more seamless on-ear operation, longer...

Jaybird Run XT Review: These Waterproof Bluetooth Earbuds Fall Short

Jaybird's $180 Run XT offers a few great features, including the completely waterproof design for outdoor adventurers. The ability to fully customize the fit with both tips and fins, as opposed to the Jabra Elite Active 65t's tip-only personalization,...

Sealed ; Comfortable fit ; New waterproof design for extreme weather

Battery life could be better ; No ambient-noise option ; Lag in video-playback syncing

Jaybird's $180 Run XT doesn't offer as much for the money as Jabra's Elite Active 65t does, though the Jaybird buds are a solid option for outdoor-sports enthusiasts. If you don't need completely wireless fitness buds, try Jaybird's $160 Tarah Pro, a...

Jaybird unveils the thoroughly unexciting RUN XT true wireless earbuds

The Jaybird was one of the first big name accessory makers to jump on the true wireless bandwagon with the RUN, but it's been doing wired Bluetooth earbuds like the Tarah since then. Now, it's time for the RUN's successor. Jaybird's RUN XT earbuds have...

The Jaybird RUN XT will go on sale in February for $179.99. You'll be able to get them from Jaybird directly as well as Amazon and Best Buy.

Jaybird's Run XT true wireless earbuds are now waterproof

Electronics company Jaybird is back with a new version of its popular Run true wireless headphones, the Run XTs.

These features could give the Run XT a significant advantage against other sports-focused true wireless headphones on the market - but, like most other athletes, Jaybird's biggest competition is itself.

Jaybird Run XT review: Back on track

The Jaybird Run XT see the brand back in the race but there's still a ways to go before they can rightfully call themselves the frontrunner of it.

Better Bluetooth connectivity ; Surprisingly good microphone ; Unique app features

"Fine" sound quality ; Not comfortable over long stretches ; Battery life isn't where it should be
