Is there really no way to turn on the earbud without the case? You can do that with the original Go Airs by just pressing the touch sensor, but that doesn't seem to work on these. null

Question

Accepted Answer

Yeah that's a pretty big design flaw. I left to go for a run so I didn't bring my case and this flaw combined with the "feature" that they automatically disconnect and power off after a couple minutes if you don't start playing audio right away meant my only option would have been to go back home for the case.

Fred, in the comments is 100% wrong. These earbuds do not power on without the case no matter what you do. Terrible flaw in design. J lab Corps these earbuds, trash this model and start over.

Answer

I cannot believe this is a feature they couldn't figure out before they released this product !!!  I'm returning it tomorrow. GAH

Hi,

That is correct, to power on the buds you would have to place the buds in the case. Unfortunately, there isn't a power button to activate that feature on this model.

Answer

It’s true they will not turn back on without case. It sucks! Tapping them for 3 seconds does not work with this model.

No, sadly they don't. I had hoped they would, but for $25 dollars I'm not surprised. Good pair for the price, they just lack this feature.

I got mine for 10 buck on black friday they sound great just have to keep the case also the buttons are silly to use for pausing the song and changing the songs ect but sound wise there pretty goid especially on bass setting imo

This may not be what you're looking for, but if you disconnect them from all devices and wait a few minutes, they'll turn off by themselves without the case. But unfortunately, you can't turn them off otherwise without the case.

I go into my blue tooth setting to pair and they start. Since the automatically pair when i take them out of the case in not sure about the other.

Unlike the JLab audio team, I'll give you the correct answer (JLab should fire all of them, and hire me!). Insert earbuds into your ears. Touch them, and hold your fingers against the touch sensor until you hear "hello" from both earbuds (takes about three seconds).
