Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love the sizing options on these headphones! I have small ears and it's heard to find good headphones that fit snug without being too big without falling out of my ears, but these come with 3 tip sizes and 2 seal ring sizes, which I love! Plus the audio quality is great, connecting them up is super easy and simple, there's sound profiles, on literal only complaint is that battery life on them isn't that great, but honestly they get me through a 3 hour movie with 50% left in each bud, so it's not awful

Very compact and comfortable to wear, ear buds are typically uncomfortable for me and these are great. They sound amazing and keep a charge for a long time.

They work well for the price. Quality and price are decent. Perfect alternative to prestige brands as my kids lose them left and right.

Good quality headphones, long battery life and convenient built in charger cable.

I have Apple Airpods Pro & Bose Earplugs too. But i love this product, good quality and easy to connect even for iPhone. Bought this for a discount too. One of my favorite for a earplugs. ⭐️

At first I couldn't keep them in my ear, but after changing the tips it was much better. I am not tech savvy at all, so I still have lots to learn. Pairing was very simple, you'll never loose the charger cord because it's attached to the case. I'm still learning how to use the functions on the buds, but so far, they have been good. Didn't give a 5 star because I get disconnected. Not sure if it's the earbuds, my phone or just that I messed up something.

I am a fairly serious runner and biker and have always been annoyed by the wires connecting my earphones to my iPhone so I own and use several pairs of expensive ($200-$300) wireless earbuds. I am very picky about the fit, sound and operating features of my earbuds. Recently, I discovered that JLab has introduced a very modestly priced wireless earbud, the JBuds Air Pro, with a number of premium features which rival the performance of my top tier earbuds. Founded in 2005 as a manufacturer of value-priced in-ear headphones, JLab Audio has become one of the best known brands of both wired premium in-ear and over-ear headphones and wireless headphones and Bluetooth earphones. It has also introduced microphones, webcams and wireless keyboards. JLab has been selected by Fast Company as one of the ten most innovative consumer electronics companies. This review will focus on the latest of their products, the JLab JBuds Air Pro wireless Bluetooth earphones. Here are the key features: • JLab JBuds Air Pro Bluetooth true wireless earbuds (Model EBJBAIRPRORBLK82) • 6 mm dynamic drivers, 16 ohm impedance • Frequency response range: 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz • Excellent driver sensitivity: 98 (+/- 3) dB @ 1 mW, 1 KHz • Bluetooth 5.1 SBC connectivity, 30 foot range, dual connections capability • Be Aware Mode provides access to outside noises for conversations, safety • JLab Sound app provides additional control, 10 band equalizer, three preset EQ settings • Integrated MEMS microphones in each earbud for phone calls • IP55 dust and water resistance (dust-resistant, safe against low pressure water stream) • Multi-function touch controls (play, pause, skip/back track, accept phone call, equalizer selection, Siri, be aware) • Lithium polymer battery life: 9 hours playtime (60 mAhr battery in earbud), 36 hours total with in-case recharging (520 mAhr battery in case) • Recharge time from full discharge: 1.5 hours for earbuds in case, 2.0 hours for case • Charging: Hard shell storage case has integrated USB-A cable • Wear detect sensor automatically pause music when earbuds removed • Three rubber ear tip sizes (small, medium, large) and one cush fin set included • JLab burn-in software to condition driver • Weight: 5.3 gram (per earbud), 49.7 gram (ear buds and charging case) • Two year warranty on parts and labor Download the JLab Sound app to provide a full user guide, equalizer settings, touch controls, charge status and other additional features. Everything looks very well made and the earbuds have a special coating to protect them from scratches and moisture. First step is to charge the ear buds in the clam shell charging case. Just attach the USB-A charging cable and LED lights will tell you when they are fully charged. The case itself serves as a supplemental battery, holding three full additional charges even when disconnected from power. Pop the earbuds back into the case for 15 minutes and you have another hour of charge. Leave them in for 90 minutes and they are fully charged again. You can do that three more times before the case itself needs recharging. I tested the claimed battery life – 9 hours and can confirm that it is accurate. One qualm I have about the case is the attached USB-A cable. It’s nice that you never have to look for a charging cable but I wonder how durable it will be over time. If it is damaged you would have to replace the charging case because it is not detachable. The JLab JBuds Pro Air earbuds are truly wireless and fit very securely in the ear. You can customize the fit with the three supplied rubber ear tip sizes and the included cush fin to select the combination which feels most comfortable for long sessions. For me the small tip and no cush fin gave the best fit and enabled me to get the best sound quality. The Bluetooth connection just requires pressing a button on the charging/carrying case for a few seconds. The 5.1 Bluetooth specification provides a solid connection up to 30 feet from my phone, but most of the time you will have your phone just a few feet from the earbuds. Sound quality is very good, very clear, distortion-free with excellent midrange and highs. And the bass is quite good. The JLab Sound app includes an equalizer with three pre-set sound profiles and a ten band equalizer to fine tune the sound to meet your preferences. Frankly, they sound way better than they have a right to – given that they are priced about one-third what my $200+ earbuds cost. A real bargain! I chose these earbuds for outside activities – would they stay in? Yes!!! I took them for a long (three hour) run and never had a problem even as I worked up a good sweat in 80+ degree weather. But running is probably not the biggest test. Can you rely upon the fit while biking? The next day I went for an all-day ride over some rough roads and once again they performed perfectly. They never felt loose. I had to recharge them in the case after about 8 hours while I stopped for food but that was quick. The case is compact and unobtrusive in your pocket, but for most workouts you can rely upon the 9 hour playing time from each charge and leave the case at home. Other features? The earbuds have nice touch controls (play, pause, skip/back track, accept/end phone calls, Siri, equalizer selection) which work well. The Be Aware function amplifies ambient sounds when desired (e.g., conversations in noisy settings). The earbuds are sealed and have an IP55 rating so even a stream of water on them will not cause damage, so have no fear about using them in the rain. (Airpods are rated only IPX4.) The very light weight (5.3 gram) of the earbuds really enhances their comfort when wearing them for long periods. No, they don’t have ANC (Automatic Noise Control) but ANC is only marginally useful in earbuds. I usually turn it off on my other earbuds which do have it because I find that it tends to muddy the sound quality. Bottom line? If you want a solid performer at a bargain price the JLab JBuds Air Pro are an outstanding choice and win five stars plus my unqualified endorsement.

My wife loves these headphones great for the gym and to tune me out! Lol the sound quality is great. They perform very well.

It is a great product with a clear sound.good price

Sound is pretty good, the touch controls are confusing.

I’ll start this review by saying I’ve had JLAB products in the past and I’ve been impressed with them for their quality given their budget-friendly status. They are not $200 dollar price point tech—but for their price point, they do what they promise. I’ve been very happy with the previous earbuds I’ve had from JLAB, which are arguably a run up from these Air Pro Buds. However, these buds had a couple of features I was interested in and a slightly different design. I was hoping they would check a few boxes that the slightly “better” buds I had currently do not check. And, in fact, they do. Also, they are even a little cheaper, and thus I feel even less worried about taking them outside or out into the world, because losing one is not going to be the end of the world. I have, in the past, tripped and knocked an ear bud out while trail running. I found it, but, if I am wearing these and I just can’t find it, it’s not a tragedy. Yet, because they work well, I’d still hate to lose one. So, I’ll be clear: I’m using these buds primarily when I exercise, and primarily when I’m running outdoors. For this reason, I did not care about ANC for this particular pair of buds, but I did very much want a pass-through/ambient setting. These have the “be aware” setting that I’ve become familiar with from other buds, as well as a standard setting for other situations. (i.e., at your desk, on a plane, listening to podcasts privately, etc.). Testing these out on an outdoor run, the be aware worked as it should. It was a little windy, though, and that means that most of what one hears from around them is just wind. I could hear traffic and dogs barking, etc. In other words, as good as I was expecting, and I feel ok wearing them outside while alone. I have used them for phone calls and they do fine. It’s not a great sound, the other person sounds a little distant, and quit, compared to just using the regular phone speaker. However, the receiver of the call reported that they could hear me just fine, no problems. The flip side of this fairly low-key usage on the buds is that I am not obsessing over the sound. It’s not perfect. There are only 3 eq settings, two of which amplify bass. The “bass boost” setting gives plenty of bass, if that’s what you like, but it makes the rest get lost in the mix. Vocals are muted significantly. The “J Labs Signature” can give you big bass with more treble on the top, allowing the vocals to pop out more. This is probably a good mix to keep the feet pumping, but it’s not amazing if you’re just sitting and listening. The “Balanced” setting is probably the best for casual listening and gives more middle tones. Still, some things are a little washed out. But—let’s be honest. We’re talking about wireless Bluetooth earbuds playing, in my case, mps3 or streaming sound. It’s not really an audiophile’s dream. For that, get out the good stereo systems or the wired earphones and the nice CDs. Still, I’d put this audio far above every other brand of cheaper headphones and earbuds I’ve bought. The only close contender is one pair of non-true wireless Bluetooth buds, but those suffered from the neck band hitting my neck rhythmically while jogging, which added some extra noise. For what I’m looking for—reliable sound, decent mix, “be aware” mode, on-board controls, these are really quite amazing at this price point. One other major plus: multipoint connection. I was skeptical that this was going to work, to be honest. One of the few problems I have with my other buds is that they tend to just connect to whatever was last talking to them (and sometimes, well, it seems like they have a mind of their own about how to connect). So occasionally I have to run around the house trying to figure out which device they’ve connected to before I can get outside and listen to the music I have queued up on my watch or my phone. Sure, not that big a deal. But the multipoint actually seems to work! It did take a little trying to setup, but I can be listening to something on the computer, hit pause, turn on something on my tablet (or whatever) and quickly it just picks up the new signal. I was amazed it worked. It may not be perfect—I haven’t tested extensively—but I am encouraged this will take away just one little aggravation. And, finally, for me this pair of buds fits pretty well. The previous pair was OK, but really not great. The slightly fancier buds require, honestly, a bit more real estate and they are not a great match with my relatively small ears. I tend to end up adjusting/pushing them back in a lot. These Air Pros have a little different design than other models I've tried and they work well. They really stick in nicely, and the cush fin is actually a helpful adjustment. The pair comes with three sizes of tips and two sets of fins, one fin is pre-installed. Honestly, they fit me well out of the box, which I was totally not expecting. While running in sweaty conditions, I didn’t adjust them at all in 45 minutes. (Also, the waterproof rating is great. I have killed buds in the rain, so I like having this protection). So, the fit may not be perfect or as nice as some of the $100+ options, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well these work with my ears. Eventually they can feel a little sore. But, again, better than other cheap models I’ve tried. Less than great things: where one misses ANC is in just sitting around and working and listening to music. The seal on the buds is tight enough that you end up hearing yourself breathe and chew and move your mouth, but at the same time, I can still hear a lot around me (my typic, noises, etc.) though actually hearing someone talking is not as easy. This is not a big deal to me, but I won’t be chewing gum while using these. Also, I did have just a bit of drop-out when I had these paired with my watch (which has music on board). Sometimes the signal would drop out with certain arm swings. This happened only when moving my arms across my body or in a less typical pattern—not with normal arm swing jogging or running. The tap controls are numerous and I’ve gotten used to some of this form previous buds, but these do allow one to control a lot through the buds. Volume, sound settings, listening modes, skipping, connecting to an assistant (I did not try to connect, but supposedly this is an option with siri or google), answering calls or hanging up. That said, the tapping can feel a little hit and miss. I had the most trouble the triple taps, but I was getting the feel of these and could make it work. Sometimes it seems to get “stuck” in whatever mode, so instead of reacting three taps as one, it will treat them as, for example, three one taps and just change the volume. It’s not perfect, but not something that makes me feel any less good about these. If you want a good set of buds that will get your through your workout and maybe your work day, and still have money left over at the end of the day, these are for you.

Excellent technology ....the best EarPods I've had .

I think this is my ninth set of BT wireless earbuds. Only because they keep getting better. This is my 4 pair of JLabs, and each pair improves over the previous, in one or more ways. Jlabs positions themselves as a value brand, but boy their sound quality keeps improving. Jlabs claims each earbud will last +9h in a charge and the case can charge them 3 times giving a total of 36h battery life (9h+27h from charging case). I fully charged, and updated my firmware before trying them out. I had no problem pairing them with my iPhone 12 pro. I then ran them through JLabs burn in tool overnight (looks like they lasted ~8h 40m), just short of the 9h quoted lifespan, and then I recharged them. I already had the JLabs Sound app installed and my Air Pro Earbuds were immediately recognized, and my battery level showed 100% on each earbud. The software provides a 10 band equalizer, which is awesome. They have 3 predefined curves (Signature, Balanced and Base Boost that are good starting points to defined and save your own presets. You can easily move between defined curves to compare the variances. The Signature was the closest to my preference. Now on to the important part, how do they sound and fit. I generally move to the next larger rubber earbud surround, but after testing I found the standard set worked just fine for me. JLab used to provide a blue foam spongy tip, it seems they no longer do. I had a pair from what I had previously, they they fit fine in the Air Pro's; I prefer them for longer listening, but the silicon that came with them were fine, they didn't feel loose and the sound seal seemed good. These earbuds are slightly smaller and lighter (with longer battery life) than the prior generation. Now on to music, I started with Traffic's Live (On The Road), The Low Spark and High Heeled Boys, the instruments each sounded clear, the horns throught out were very airy, the earbuds presented a great multi-dimensional sound stage. Each instrument coming from it's own location. The voice being precisely center stage. The Bass was the only thing that seemed a bit lacking, but with this live performance the sound is much different than the original recording I'm more accustomed to. I then went to Pink Floyd's beautiful DSOTM (Live from Immersion Edition). Speak to Me sounded great, the volume level was wonderful, opening up the subtle notes of the song. I had the volume at about 90% volume knowing they could be louder. The subtle tones were great, and as the song builds it had real presence. The highs in Time were tremendous, these earbuds provide an excellent sharp/crisp high end. Then Great Gig In the sky's ethereal voices, wisp around the soundstage with the bass just a little weak, but still a nice balance. Money plows in with a very real entry, I turned up the volume to 100% and it was still perfectly clear. But it was even better louder. Us and Them was most tremendous, it got me turning my head, like I could hear the different instruments right in front of me. As we ended with Eclipse I felt like the little voices in my head would persist, but they faded away, as usual. Then went to Boston's first album; More than a feeling was forward, and the bass felt very natural with airy highs. On Foreplay/Long time the fade in/out fade had great separation and was excellent. The subtle build up was nearly perfect. And the bass was better on this album; deep but not over done. Here I tried using equalizer, I loved having all the the options. The bass boost was nice but I quickly tired of it. I tapped the earbuds to advance the song, it work as I expected. The touch controls can be programmed as you desire (a great feature usually only found on more expensive products). The software can also control what Jlabs calls Be Aware, where some outside sounds are brought into the sound stream of the earbuds. You can set a percentage that "passes" thought. This was somewhat effective, but at louder music levels the effect diminishes. I went outside, with Be Aware set to 0%, and could not hear birds over the music, with Be Aware set to 90%, during quite passages I could hear the birds, but not when it was much louder. So I'm not sure how effective it is. I'm very happy that Jlabs provides a burnin tool, I've used others to break earbuds, headphones and speakers before. I love that they provide a full graphic equalizer, it works superbly. This earbud version does not have Automatic Noise Cancelation, another model does if it's important to you (airplane travel is the only place I use it). These exceptional earbuds for the price, I've recently tried others 4x the price that I would not say sounded any better. These are close to the best earbuds I've ever used; better highs, with some bass trade offs. After using them all day, I found them very comfortable, (I'd still prefer the blue memory form inserts). But after wearing them nearly all day I rarely thought about them (other than how nice they sounded). Jlabs has built another great reasonable priced set of earbuds. I like the new case with the hidden charging cord. The case can't be charged wirelessly (that would be another step up). But for sounds quality alone these are excellent.

I've had these new JLab JBuds now for a little over a week, and I must say that I'm impressed with the fit in my ear, the quality of the sound and ease of use for the charging case. I've struggled in the past to find the right earbud fit for my ears, they are always too loose and fall out easily. The JBuds come with 3 different sizes of ear cushions, using the smallest one seemed to be a good fit for me. It is important that you actually take the time to try all three sizes as well as the "cush fins". Getting the right fit is important to sound quality and over all comfort. The case is small, has a built in integrated USB-A charging cable with is about 2" long. That could present a problem for some - but I have lots of USB charging ports available so that wasn't an issue for me. Features include: sweat proof with IP55 (except the case), multi-point (connect to two devices - like your phone and laptop), custom EQ settings and a 9 hour play time and 27 hours stored in charging case. I gave only 4 stars for a couple reasons: 1. there's no power button to turn the earbuds off if you don't have the case with you. You need to turn off Bluetooth on your phone, then the earbuds will power off after 3 minutes. 2. The button functions are a bit difficult to remember - see photo for example. Lastly, I made several phone calls using these earbuds and I was surprised at the voice quality on both ends. No noise suppression means you'll have to stay in quiet areas, but the quality is impressively good if you are! Overall, for the price these are a great choice for your daily drive (use Be Aware mode), working out or just chillin' at home!

JLab JBuds Air Pro True Wireless (Model:EBJBAIRPRORBLK82) I’d like to think I’m a wise shopper. I’ve concluded that we should have earbuds that are less costly for everyday, high activity usage. JLab’s Buds Air Pros keep the price reasonable but also allow me to have a bunch of features that I’ve gotten used to. The real trick that JLab has accomplished is allowing the “button press” set of features to work extremely reliably without an App and making the results all sound good. CONNECTIONS: For Apple (and increasing numbers of Android users) there is the always reliable AAC. There is also SBC. This new JLab adds Bluetooth MULTIPOINT meaning you can connect to the Bluetooth of two devices. Setting up on my phone and my Mac was easy and reliable. There is no App so you don’t lose features if you switch devices. OPERATION: Pairing was immediate, right as I pulled them from the carry case. Both ear buds synched up. I wish my more expensive earbuds were this easy. I was initially overwhelmed by the thought of so many feature assignments to one button on each earbud. I was prepared to make myself a cheat sheet! But, almost immediately this all seems obvious. JLab has done a great job making sure the button presses are reliably read by their embedded software. Right Ear tap assignment: single= Vol+; double=Play/Pause; triple=Aware mode; Hold 1sec= track forward. Left Ear Tap assignment: single=volume-; double=Voice Assist; triple=EQ changes; Hold 1sec=Music/movie mode. Phone calls: Single tap answers; Double tap hangs up; Hold 1 sec rejects call. PERFORMANCE: It’s hard to test ruggedness but the IP55 rating offers protection against squirt guns, rain storms and some beach sand. These are nice sounding Earbuds and far more comfortable than many I’ve sampled. They are so light. In fact, the carry/charging case is very compact, with its USB charging cable neatly tucked into the shell. I can’t emphasize enough that a good fit is critical to getting a balanced sound. Frankly, I wish JLab had thrown in a couple of different sizes or types of ear tip materials. I prefer a more solid foam type tip. I found myself fussing a bit more than usual to keep the fit snug. When the fit was sufficiently snug, the sound was very nice. Sound with the “balanced” setting was my preference. JLabs two custom settings were a big miss for me. I stayed with balanced and found that every modern recording in my playlist sounded great. It was only with my classics collection that I was looking for more bass. I think my less than ideal fit made that a bit difficult. Phone calls were easy to handle and sounded fine unless outdoor noise was too high. RECOMMENDATION: As always, ear bud fit is the core issue. I’m going to suggest readers do their own sound assessments, because I couldn’t get an ideal fit. Otherwise, I think these are a great deal. The set of features all work wonderfully. I can live without ANC during workouts. These are unusually light-weight making wearing them for extended periods a joy. Total volume output seemed a bit limited until you get a good fit, which add both volume and better bass. Try them out for yourself.

Looking for an affordable pair of er buds? Check out JLab's Bluetooth Air Pro. No wires just great sound. All the features you expect from a set of earbuds. Easy to pair and reliable at 20 to 30 feet from your Bluetooth device. Simple taps to control most frequent functions. Mine charge in an hour or two. USB plug built into the hard shelled carrying case which has a built in battery that can recharge your earbuds three extra times. All day use. Place them in the case for a boost extending use for 30 some hours. Great all weekend. The soft cushioned buds fit comfortably in my ear. Yet I can sense sounds and conversations around me. That gives me peace of mind when I am in public, yet don't want to disturb anyone with my audio. The USB case cord won't get misplaced or forgotten since it stores neatly into the bottom of the case. Small yet clear sound. Decent microphone, so I've been told. Two device compatibility means I can answer the phone while using (working) on my laptop. It knows when I remove the earpiece from my ears and play pauses. Saves the battery too.

I have tried various models of ear buds trying to get the right balance of comfort, features, volume control, sound quality, connectivity, and battery life. While these scored well on several fronts, I still find myself using others for different purposes. This model does not offer noise cancellation (another JLABS model does), so I was unable to hear using these earbuds when there was a lot of ambient noise. The controls are pretty simple but do require carrying around the instruction manual for a few days until you learn some of the less-used commands. I do like that the pairing process was quick and easy - connected on the frit try. I also like that the earbuds each tells you when they are on, when they connect, and their corresponding battery level. The battery life is very satisfactory. I've never run out of battery during the time that I was using them. The charging case is a little unusual in that it has its own USB-A cable built into the bottom of the case. That makes the case a little larger than most. It is only a 2-inch cable, so when extended it does not really lie flat. This is not a problem, just an observation. The biggest concern I have is the comfort. I was able to wear them for about 2 hours tops before they felt large and uncomfortable in my ear. I am playing around with different tips to see if I can find one that provides comfortable wear for a longer period of time. I also tried to wear them while on a treadmill. They manages to stay in, but because of the discomfort, I prefer to wear around-the-ear style for exercising. Of all my earbuds, this is not my favorite.

The development of JLab’a earbuds have been getting better each year. To be honest all of the JLab buds I own are pretty amazing and it’s definitely a trusted earbud brand. What I like about most are the interchangeable earbud pieces and the additional rubber grip around the larger part of the bud. This outer grip provides some holding power to keep your buds in your ear. Great for moving around. I also like the charging case because JLab seems to always include the USB A charger built in. It’s so convenient because as long as you have your charging case you are set and I only ever see JLab integrate this in. The usb is directly wired to the case and pops out and snaps in so easily. Although, one might think what happens if the usb breaks or rips off you can’t use a new cord. However, I don’t think this is true as JLab has done a great job making this charging cable simplistic and well built so no troubles here. The cord is also short so nobody will trip on it, etc. The buds sound pretty good and although they are not equipped with active noise cancelling they do keep out a lot of outside noise. Pretty cool for not being noise canceling. The sound quality rocks and I can’t complain. Have I listened to better? Sure, but these will do. The buds are sweat and dust proof which is pretty standard. In addition, they state each bud last over 9 hours each and the case provides 27 hours of additional charge. I don’t know how long the buds take to charge in the case though. The one thing I didn’t like is there is no app to control these buds so everything is based off of taping the sensors on the buds. What this means is you have to tap them to change the sound profile and you don’t have much for custom adjustments. An app would be great. It also took me a few minutes to figure out how to connect the buds to my iPhone. Had to read the directions two times but I got them to work.

These are hands down the best wireless earbuds I have ever owned. First of all, the sound quality is exceptional. The bass is powerful and the overall sound is crisp and clear. I have used these earbuds while doing chores around the house, and the sound quality has never disappointed me. The fit of these earbuds is also fantastic. They come with multiple sizes of ear tips, so you can find the perfect fit for your ears. The Bluetooth connectivity is seamless and I have not experienced any issues with dropouts or lag. The earbuds also have touch controls, which makes it easy to adjust the volume, change songs, or answer calls without having to take out my phone. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my purchase.

These JLab - JBuds Air Pro True earbuds are a good option for working out. They stay pretty snug in your ear. You have like 3 other rubber ear insert options to find the best fit. Making sure they fit good ensures the better audio. The audio isn’t too tier but give decent sound. Nothing raspy or annoying lows or highs. Voices are clear. After using the holding pod doubles as a charging port which is pretty standard. Charging doesn’t take long and can be done anywhere. These are great for travel because they can fit in your pocket, purse or luggage. Because of the small size I do find myself losing them and not knowing where I last put them down. It would be cool if the case had a beeping or some sound that could be triggered to be able to find them when they are lost. Lol It could also be doubled as a theft mechanism. If you are looking for a basic pair of affordable earbuds to listen to music or podcasts then I strongly suggest checking these out and giving them a try. Over all they are worth a try.
