I use to have the power Beats and thew control went bad after only 3 months of workouts. I had the warranty on them and turned them in for a new pair. The second pair went bad after only a month with crackle in the right ear bud. I picked up a third pair under warranty and this time the left side went bad. I said that is it. I did my research and came across the JayBird Freedom F5. I have had these now for three months of very sweaty works outs and they are holding up perfectly. The sound is much better than the beats and the included app is awesome if you are a sound freak like me. They are made out of metal and not plastic and also include a ton of ear sizing adjustment pieces for the proper fit. I have had no problems with them while running on the treadmill (7.5 MPH). the range on them is fantastic as well without any breaks in music playback. I highly recommend theses to anyone needing a reliable high quality wireless earbud for working out.

I like that you can select different sound preferences through the app. Sounds great and easy to use. Coming from one of the LG tone earbuds, it takes a little bit of getting use to. Not a fan of where the controllers are. I feel like they should be a little further away from the earbud. It hangs right below the ear and tends to weigh down one side. I'm a stickler and I like when my wires are equal on each side. With these, Im always pull one side to readjust. I ended up going with the over the ear method (which I'm not us to) and it seems to not need adjusting as much if you use the included cable maintenance.

The JayBird F5 in ear wireless headphones are the best I've used in awhile. The design of the earbud is great, even keeping them in my ears on particularly long runs.
They also can get pretty loud for wireless headphones which is my usual complaint. I would say that they do need to work on getting it a bit louder (I still find myself intermittently maxing out the volume) but overall they really are some wonderful headphones.

These earbuds were a steal for $50! They sound good clear and the bass is pronounced. Something faults are the battery, which is kinda weak compared to the competition.

I usually have trouble keeping headphones in place or they are painful due to size. Once you get adjusted to the form, fits snug. Wish the battery life was a bit longer

Was looking to buy the Samsung iconx but the battery life was too short. I've noticed that that they Jay birds don't last as long as they specify but no complaints as I've never drained the battery in one session. They are light and very compact bit deliver an amazing sound.

These buds had excellent sound quality and battery life., but always Seemed to want to slip off on the right side while not actively on use, but draped around my neck, especially with the battery boost /charger clipped on. I wasn't super worried she to the seemingly ingenuity feature called "Find my Buds" built into the app. Then as I was getting ready for bed a few days ago, I realized they weren't around my neck as I normally keep them. The app showed them out in a part of my yard where I hadn't even been for around a week! I've searched everywhere, but they seem to have vanished without a trace!

I got this from a recent offer for 50 and now that I have them I would never pay more than that. It is interesting that you can tune/equalize the sound, but it’s a pain to have to do it for every type of music! The ear plugs that come with it are painful, as others have stated, and Yes, they come off during a high intensity run or workout. Also as others have said, the battery doesn’t last long. The only positive is the “battery-charger” that gives an extra full charge.

These Jaybirds compete in fidelity fairly well against my Bose Wireless Bluetooth headphones. Would give 5 stars but batter life is less than advertised.

I use these for my workouts. It took me a while to find the best fitting buds and fins. Once I did there was minimal adjusting while working out and jogging. The sound is really good, and I haven't downloaded the app to adjust it yet. The battery/controls are a bit heavy. For as heavy as it is, its disappointing that it only lasts four hours without the auxillary battery/charger.

NOT RECOMMENDED FOR INTENSE EXERCISE

Pros: Very good sound quality for wireless earbuds. Great Fit inside Ear. These are a great choice for casual walking or any other non-intense activities.
Cons: NOT recommended for intense exercise – if you sweat into the earbuds they will FAIL. I returned 2 pairs within 3 weeks due to failure thru exercising. Battery life is also a bit of misnomer, in order to have the high side of the battery life you have to attach the charging dock to the port, this adds even more “offset” weight to the right side. And if you lose the dock you can’t recharge the earbuds.

I've tried quite a few different sets of wireless headphones and these were by far the lightest and offered the best overall quality of sound. Using the companion app these headphones have a near infinite amount of EQ levels to please just about any listener. Plenty of presets available to please most buyers but the ability to tweak any level to your own personal preference was a huge plus for me. The bass may not be the best on the market but they will satisfy most listeners who care more about audio purity. I wear these for hours at a time and never feel as though they become heavy or uncomfortable even with the additional battery pack attatched. With two types of tips (silicon or memory foam) with 3 sizes of each and optional ear fins, there are plenty of wearing options to make anyone happy. All in all you get what you pay for and these are well worth the 200 dollars.

Got these on special for 49 bucks. Best sounding buds I’ve had. Really great full frequency response and unbelievable noise isolation. Don’t need cancellation with these. The downside is they are hard to put in. But once in very stable and closes the door to the outside world. Excellent value. Have had Beats and Bose and many cheaper units. These are as good as any.

I've tried many different headphones, well ear buds, however with an 8hr battery life(4 on the earbuds + 4 on the charger pack) and an app that lets you customize the built-in EQ. These are by far my favorite, they sound great, are comfortable and generally loud, I can't recommend them enough

First off, I thought these were great out of the box until I downloaded the jaybird music app. That puts these headphones over the top!! The custom EQ makes for great settings and countless sounds no matter your choice of tunes. Only reason it doesn’t get 5 stars would be comfort/wearability. They bother my ears after leaving them in too long and the mouthpiece/speaker is rather heavy so the headphones tend to slide more to the right side of my neck, requiring frequent adjustments. But other than that it would be hard to beat these at the price point!
