    I never had an issue with battery life, very comfortable to wear, and has one of the best sound qualities there is. Very rarely experience connection issues, but the pros outweigh the cons by a large margin in my opinion. If you want to buy some earphones, these are the ones you should get that are worth the money.

    Amazing Noise Cancelling

    I finally splurged and got the JBL-LIVE BEAM 3 True Wireless Noise-Cancelling Earbuds! I never like the white 'earrings' everyone wears, so I found these to be an excellent choice. I've never experienced noise cancelling until I was on a flight recently, and I turned on the noise cancelling, and it was like the plane stopped. I was listening to an audiobook, and it was uncanny. As the saying goes, 'you get what you pay for' with these. Great price 'under $200... and a great sound with a case with a screen so you can also make adjustments without having to accidentally hang up on someone or tune by touching your ear, although option, once you have mastered it, is a great option.

    Outstanding Sound, Comfort, and Battery Life

    I’m extremely impressed with the JBL Live 3 headphones. The sound quality is clear and powerful, with deep bass that doesn’t overpower the mids or highs, making them great for music, videos, and calls. The noise cancellation works very well and really helps block out background noise when I’m on the go. They’re also very comfortable to wear for long periods, and the battery life easily lasts all day without needing a recharge. Overall, these feel premium, perform flawlessly, and are absolutely worth the price. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality headphones.

    So far, I am amazed with these JBL Live Buds 3! Had it about 3 months and so far the sound quality feels nice and crispy. Good amount base in it as well. The comfort fits me perfectly and never slide out! Especially when I'm at the gym and going for a run. The ambient noise is for me is really great! Call wise, not too bad and from other people to hear me at a loud place, is great. In other meaning, they hear me just fine and I hear them fine as well. I too have the Galaxy Buds 3 pro and those are awesome BUT, the only issue for me is the FITTING in my left ear. After putting it on and having it on about 30 mins, it tends to move a bit and sometimes i have to realign to get it secured fit. Especially when I'm working out. I tried different tips but its a no go. Which is why the JBL-Live Buds 3 True Wireless Noise Cancelation, I have no issue with it. Battery life are great so far and it charge up real quick. Only sour grape i have for JBL is the screen charging case, dies out couple of charge of the earbuds. Sometimes, even though I don't use it features, I wish there was an option I can turn it off and use it only to charge my earbuds only. In which more battery life it has.

    A very good pair of wireless earbuds, the comfortable fit and the good bass produced make for a great combination. Great sound quality. The screen on the case makes it easier to change your music and even the equalizer. The only downside i have noticed is the battery life, while the screen is a cool feature it definitely drains the battery from the case. The earbuds itself have a solid battery life, lasting a good bit of time after the case dies.

    What I really love about these are the sleek design and slim stems. They fit perfectly in my ear canal and I forget they’re even there. The sound quality is an experience, especially the Spatial Audio. My only gripe is the ANC is a bit subpar but the EQ customization makes up for it. The screen case definitely comes in handy when using the buds with a laptop or TV. I’m an avid JBL consumer and they knocked it out the park again with this one!

    I was a bit worried about buying earbuds like this, but I went for it, and I dig them. Big time. Big fan. I pretty much never take them out. I'm a musician, have been most of my 51 years, and I'm picky about the way things sound. These are comfortable and sound @#$% amazing.

    Very very good sound quality, cancelling noise is very good, and the diferent modes on it, the ambient mode is awesome... Deep bass. i heard notes or instruments on a song that i really didn noticed before.... The fit is also very strong, using for running and some weight lifthing and works very good... Connectivity, im mostly using with a smartwatch and the conection, takes time at the beggining, but once are fully connected, is a strong coneection..

    Honestly, stay away. Sound quality is good like most jbl products. Everything else is horrible. Anc turns on by itself, whenever it wants to, despite me purposefully turning it off repeatedly on the app, and on the case. There is no way to turn this case, or the earbuds, off. Half the time the case was extremely low battery when they had just been charged recently. To add to not being able to completely turn off either earbuds/case, for some reason the bluetooth on these think theyre allowed to have priority over everything else, even when 'everything else' is connected and playing. These things will randomly decide they want to kick your current receiving device off and hog your connection, to just simply sit there and be connected. Computer connected to another device? Kicked off by these. Car connected to my phone to let music play? Nah, car kicked off so these can force a connection, just to sit in a backpack. The fun thing is that nobody even so much as looked at them, and theyre hijacking source connections. To the point where any time they were used, they had to be deleted from anything they were connected to, to prevent them from randomly connecting for no reason. The amount of times I've had to reconnect my phone to my vehicle because of these things is probably a world record. Ive had tons of wireless earbuds, and these Live Buds have had more problems than all of them combined. Whats worse is Best Buy has unrealistic return windows that rendered these non-returnable despite being massively defective. Customer service made an appointment with their Geek Squad to have them looked at, and had me drive 40 miles 1 way to a store, because I honestly wanted them repaired for the sound quality, just for them to tell me they can't do anything and I need to contact the manufacturer. Manufacturer replaced them, but I doubt I'm even going to open the packaging. They'll likely go on ebay at a loss. Made the decision to replace these with GalaxyBuds3Pro before the replacement was delivered, which both arrived on the same day. Save yourself $100, higher end Anker and Skullcandy earbuds will sound the exact same with Kiwiears tips and a decent equalizer setting, without any of the nonsense.

    These little ear buds are fantastic! The case is pretty cool and functional with changing volume‚ setting the sound stage‚ and changing music along with other features. The charge lasts a while and is perfect for when I'm out and about. Excellent sound quality from these earbuds. I highly recommend them.

    Ive been using these for a good few weeks now, and I find it hard to think of anything wrong with them. The sound is great, the ANC is great, call quality is great, and the fit is great. The only complaint I have, is that the case likes to turn itself on and change settings while in a pocket. Was wondering why my ANC would turn on and of, music pausing on its own, etc. I would have dropped a star off if there wasnt an option to only have the screen turn on when opened, which solved the issue entirely.

    Recently purchased these ear buds and quite impressed with them. Coming from the Sony Wf 1000 xm4 ear buds, I personally prefer the sound stage of these. The sound stange is much more bass forward which i prefer. The anc isn't quite as good as those but they are also $100 dollars cheaper. In terms of comfort i also find these far more comfortable. I had thought the case screen would be gimmicky but i actually find it quite useful when sitting at my work desk. I can conrol things without looking at my phone and getting distracted. Honestly think of a smart watch without all tbe health features. Overall very satisfied with my purchase.

    I recently purchased a pair of JBL earbuds, and I am extremely impressed with their performance. The sound quality is crystal clear, with deep bass and crisp highs. The earbuds fit comfortably and securely in my ears, even during vigorous exercise. I also appreciate the long battery life, which allows me to use them for several hours without needing to recharge. Overall, these earbuds have exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend them to anyone in search of a premium audio experience.
