I got these on sale during black friday for 49. At that price plus 9.99 for Geek Squad warranty, I am very happy with this purchase. These do not come with the comply memory foam tips. I had to buy those separately.
Good sound, stay in my ears during working out and the battery life is decent. I like the ability to use the app to adjust equalization settings.

I got these for the gym and they serve the purpose. Good sound, ear pieces can hurt with prolonged use. Battery life is only 4-5 hours without the added clip which makes them heavy and awkward. But for a few hours at the gym they are perfect! Overall happy with the purchase. Note I got these on the Black Friday sale for 50 bucks, definitely not worth 120

Small, lightweight, comfortable (with many fit options), excellent sound - especially with individual customization options available using the simple yet powerful Jaybird MySound app. They also allow you to connect to two devices at once. I really liked the versatility of wearing options. I use mine over the ear utilizing the cord management clips so that the cord doesn't flop around or get caught on anything and they have never come out during any activity, especially at the gym. I highly recommend going to their site and watching the informative videos about the headphones and usage. I would have given 5 stars but was disappointed that for the price, they only came with the charging cord and no charging block to plug into the wall. Customer service was nice when I called and they are considering including one in the future.

Budget Package missing Comply Foam Eat Buds

This is a high quality headphone which comes with limited number of ear buds only small and medium and doesn’t come with comply foam which isolate the sound leakage and able to allow the most audio sound back into the ear canal. This would allow strong bass. Again that’s why it’s $49.99 due to lacking the ear buds compare to regular version.

Bought these on Black Friday week for the lowest price I've seen. They sound great at the gym, blocking out the commercial music playing over head and the talking from people not working out. Needs to be charges slightly more often than others but probably from the noise canceling feature. Should have bought another pair to give to a friend.

Great sound for a Bluetooth device (rivals wired sound better than any other similar device I’ve tried). Aesthetics and build quality are excellent but after 2 day’s of use, battery life is, at best, maybe 1/2 of what’s advertised and I wish there were more than 2 size options for the earbud tips than what are provided in the packaging

I lost my first pair of these headphones. I missed them so much I saved up and bought them again. I really like the sound quality and I like the app they have to adjust the sound settings. It's really well designed. The buttons are intuitive and do all the things I need (play, pause, volume, next and previous) which is really nice when I'm at the gym and don't want to be holding my phone all the time. They're really comfortable, but it does take a while to go through all the ear attachments they give you to figure out what works best. There's probably a million different ways to wear these. I thought I would be annoyed at the battery life but it's actually totally fine. I use them daily and charge them maybe once a week.

It has good sound. I was looking for wireless headphones and was about to buy the Bose, but after trying them for one more time in the store, I decided for the price they were nothing special. I bought the Jay's based on a friend's recommendation the $49 sale. They're just as good. They stay put while running. The app is useful.

These buds are pretty awesome. I love the app. It allows me to adjust the settings, making the sound customized to my own personal preference. The fit is tight and secure. I would have given this 5 stars except that I cannot keep them in my ears for more than 2 hours before they start to ache. Would definitely buy again though.

I was debating between this jaybird freedom f5 and the Bose sport. Both wireless. The F5 was on sale for $100 off, and so I decided to take a chance. Besides I already had the Bose but wanted to have a spare. This F5 was just as good as the Bose. But for me, the Bose sound quality and fit was much better. That is just me.

I have never been one, that likes to spend big money on headphones. I got these on black Friday. I opened them and 1st thing I noticed is this weight. They are not heavy by any means. I was just expecting cheap plastic, jaybird uses a metal. I Am not kidding the build quality is great. But the most important part of this review is the sound. And IT GOOD OUT OF THE BOX. These headphones recommend you to download their app on your phone. Once that's done, you can can adjust the bass, treble, and etc. It also shows you on your phone your battery status. So your never guessing when the music is going to stop. The battery life is about 2 and half hours. It does come with usb charging hub. Which is like a spare battery. You could connect it the headphones as you listen to music and that would give you the 4 hours of power. But I really don't like doing that, because that charging base is the only means to charge the headphones. SO YOU LOSE IT, NO MORE CHARGING THE JAYBIRDS. But that being said, they're great. And at 50 they are a steal. The freedom f5 by jaybird, truly give you a premium sound and quailty.

Bought these for my wife, they sound good, she likes the bluetooth function, and the different earbuds and hooks helped her find the right combination that will stay in her ears while she's exercising.

I don’t usually like earbud style headphones but decided to give these a try because they are wireless and were on sale for a great price! After using these multiple times, I really enjoy them!
The sound quality is amazing, especially with the compatible app that lets you customize the sound of your music. These headphones also cancel outside noise which is another nice quality.
I thought the wire connecting the earbuds would be bothersome, but it isn’t at all!
The adjustable accessories that came with the headphones are wonderful as well, as I did have to go down a size in the silicone earbuds and the silicone place holders that sit in the ear.
The only thing I don’t like about these is how cheap the charging clip feels. It’s cool how it works, but I feel as thought after using these for a long period of time, something is going to snap or the wire for the earbuds is going to break from separating the charging clip. I wish the charging method was more sturdy.
Overall a great product for the price I got them at while on sale. Not sure if I would’ve bought them at full price though.

The sound quality on these are actually pretty decent. I actually like the ear blade design. They stay in my ears pretty good, but I do not do any significant activities wearing them. I do wish that the power on sound was quieter. It seems independent of the device volume. The batteries don't last a real long time, but the addition of the charging block having a battery in it as well that you can use (albeit adding some weight) to power the head phones when the main battery gets low is a clever feature. I started using the clip because I was pulling the one side out when I turned my head. Don't seem to have that problem using the included clip. Overall I'm pleased with the headphones.

This is like my 3rd pair of these - just love them - they are light - sound great. They are bendy so you can wear them to sleep on a plane or where ever without them popping out of your ears.

These headphones definitely pack a punch and fit perfectly in my ears. I use the wings and have tragus piercings in both ears and they've never fallen out. I use them for cycling, skating, running, etc. My only complaints are that I wish the battery would last a bit longer... It seems even when fully charged, and using the battery attachment, I never get more than 3-4 hours. I also wish the battery piece that snaps on was a bit more lightweight as it does tug a bit when moving about with the ear buds in. Charging is super quick however and even with the extra weight of the external battery, they still haven't fallen out. I rate them 7/10 as the sound and fit are my deal makers.

I love this brand. They are always reliable and they do not disappoint with this version. The sound is great, above any beats headphones ive tried. The battery life is less than previous versions, it comes with a miniature battery pack that can give you an extra 4 hours of playime (8 total hours).

I listen to the music all the time (via wired and wireless earphones, Bluetooth speakers) and I do lots of research before buying this kind of stuff. I also own Bose QC30 Bluetooth in-ear headphones which are the best in audio quality till this date based on my experience. So my opinion is mostly based upon a comparison of Jbird freedom with Bose QC30.
In terms of sound quality, Jbird is really good and its very close to Bose. The best part is that you can tune its firmware using Jbird app for your taste. But sometimes that becomes a downside as different songs require different tunning for better output and that's where Bose shine. Its firmware is tuned so well that it fits all the songs without requiring any kind of tunning. But again its individual choice so go with your preference.
My only problem with Jbird is the comfort level. Within first few hours of usage, I started feeling pain in my ear.
Fins were not felt that soft in-ear although appeared soft in hands. Build quality is good overall looks are ok.
