JBL UA True Wireless Flash

The JBL UA True Wireless Flash earbuds deliver strong audio performance and excellent exercise-focused features.

Powerful bass-forward but balanced audio performance. Solid mic clarity. Strong battery life. Waterproof. Includes one year premium membership to MapMyRun.

Cuts off beginnings of newly navigated-to tracks and phone prompts. Minor hiss at low volumes.

When it comes to wire-free earphones built for exercise, you can't do much better than the JBL UA True Wireless Flash. We're also big fans of the JayBird Run XT, which feature adjustable EQ, but we're giving the Flash our Editors' Choice for longer...

JBL Under Armour True Wireless Flash review: Wet and wireless

With the help of audio manufacturer JBL, Under Armour's true wireless earphones are a decent, but flawed, effort

IPX7-certified water resistance ; Sporty, rugged design ; Decent battery life

Sound lacks refinement ; Charging case is bulky ; Fit isn’t very secure

The JBL Under Armour True Wireless Flash do hold some attraction. They’re the first water-resistant true wireless earphones I’ve seen from a major manufacturer and, for that, both JBL and Under Armour should be commended.

Under Armour's new JBL sports headphone flashes to keep runners safer

The new neckband-style UA Sport Wireless Sport Flex has a built-in LED with three flashing modes for night running -- or walking.

The UA Sport Wireless Flex by JBL is a well-designed neckband-style Bluetooth sports headphone. It's sweat-resistant, fits comfortable and securely and sounds good for the breed. The buds adhere magnetically and there's an LED light strip built into...

It's a bit too expensive. Under Armour and JBL should throw in a set of larger eartips to ensure more people can get a tight seal.

While it costs more than competitors, the UA Sport Wireless Flex by JBL fits well, sounds good and should please runners and players of other sports, especially if they exercise at night.
