JBuds mini: the smallest out there, great price

JBuds Mini is the smallest true wireless earbud of any major headphone brand; "major headphone brand" as defined as a top 10 brand. They weigh about 25% less than the market leaders.
Originally I noted the sound was too soft, then discovered the “safe listening” level had been set to 65dB max. At a peak of 85 dB, it was much better, and able to hear the full spectrum without having to crank up the volume.
The “Be Aware” mode lets ambient noise come through, so traffic, conversations, and your environmental noise is heard. Turning that OFF shuts out the outside noise which JLabs terms “passive noise isolation”, rather than a true “Active Noise Canceling” circuitry. Larger and much more expensive headphones have the ANC, but the JLabs system works pretty well. There are two microphones; one samples the ambient noise to cancel out that from the programatic material that you are listening to. So you can optimize your hearing of the music, the audiobook, or the podcast while dampening the cacophony of the subway, bus, airplane, whatever.
learning how to manage the controls (tap left ear once to lower volume, tap right once for increased volume, long press right to move to the next track, etc.) were easily learned. And you can always revert to the app if you forget the sequences.
instruction manual was somewhat diminutive, but really all you needed to get up and listening, including how to link to both your phone and laptop (“Multipoint” Bluetooth sources, so you don't have to go to Bluetooth settings if you want to link to your phone one time and to the laptop later)
excellent build quality, just felt "quality" in your hands,
secure fit in the ears,
case opened easily, but the magnet held it closed nicely. No anxiety about it coming open in your satchel with the earbuds roaming around in the depths of the bag
the magnetic grabbing of the earbud by the case, and the fact that the left will only hop to the Left side of the case, and the right bud only seats in the right side makes it intuitive to grab and place the earbud in the correct ear, without having to try to read the faint embossed L or R on the backside of the earbud.
The case is quite diminutive: around 2.5” x 1.5” x 1”, so really fits in your pocket easily.
the app will work with the whole range of JLab products, so if you have more than one, you don’t have separate apps to have to sort through, although you need to pick which product you have as you start using the app from your menu of owned/linked products
the diminutive size and very compact case is very convenient for pocket/purse/travel.
The charging case gives you extra listening time without having to stop to seek out a charging source. The earbuds will have about 5.5 hours of playtime in the earbud. If returned to the case for topping up, you can have 20 total hours for an all-day listening experience. So the small size doesn’t restrict your duration.
the initial pairing of the buds to the phone was very easy. They pair back to the phone quickly, and automatically pair just by taking out of the case without having to scroll through menus on the phone. And ditto for the laptop: to watch a video source while in the waiting room, aboard a plane, passenger in the auto. You can pair to two sources at once, so if you are watching a movie on the computer and a phone call comes in on your mobile, there is no scrambling to turn one off so the other can be answered
4 Separate equalization modes to customize for music, audiobooks/vocal/podcasts, movie soundtracks, bass boost, etc., one of which can be personally customized
comes with three sizes of ear tips to adjust the fit of the buds to your ear canal. Even more sizes, larger, smaller, foam eartips rather than the rubber, etc. are available from JLabs
You can listen to only one ear at a time, if desired, so that you can take a phone call or have background music, without loosing your awareness of your surroundings. I need to experiment to determine if the music played in a “one ear mode” is just half of the stereophonic output, or is a monaural blend of both left and right tracks. The literature at the JLabs web site suggests the latter is true.
the JLabs app will notify and update software/firmware updates automatically
packaging was 100% recyclable cardboard.
The USB-C cord supplied for charging the case was only about 6” long, which was totally perfect match for the compact size of the devices
available in 5 colors, matched buds and case: black, deep pink, teal, mint green, blue grey
IP55 water resistance, so no fear of sweat, light rain, splashes, etc.
I haven’t gone for an outdoor run with them to judge how secure they are from falling out of the ears. I have an older pair of JLabs earphones with a hook over the ear, which gives me a greater sense of security against loss.
Other, more expensive, JLabs earbuds/earphones have a Tile locating chip that would make honing in on the location beside the roadway or along a running trail.
My black JBuds mini might be really difficult to find. They do come in a “mint green” color that might show up better on the ground.
built in microphones with pretty good noise diminution to facilitate clear phone calls for both your hearing of the person on the other end of the call, and for them to hear what you are saying
charges quickly; 15 minutes of charging gives an hour of listening
receiving a phone call was a bit tricky the first time out. It took a few tries to get the phone to automatically choose the ear buds over the other options (hold to your ear, the phone’s speaker, other BlueTooth options).
all told, a whole lot to like for not much money! I have already purchased a pair for a sibling birthday present, having had these for only a few weeks.
JBuds Minis:Compact, Convenient & Full of Features

My first impression of the JBuds Mini True Wireless Earbuds was that they were just another pair of earbuds in a crowded market. However, upon closer inspection, I discovered their unique niche. These earbuds are not only small in size but also come with a compact case that can easily fit in your pocket or be attached to a keyring using the handy loop and ring provided. This compact design sets them apart from other earbuds that often come with bulky cases. The case measures approximately 1.75" x 1.5" x 1", making it incredibly portable. Additionally, the package includes two extra sets of earbud covers, allowing you to find the perfect fit for your ears.
One standout feature of these earbuds is their ability to connect to three devices simultaneously. This is particularly useful for work scenarios where you may need to switch between your smart office phone, MacBook Pro, and mobile phone. Furthermore, the earbuds offer a battery life of around 5 to 6 hours per charge, while the case can provide an additional 20 hours of charge. In terms of setup, connecting to multiple devices is straightforward by following the provided instructions. The manual is well-written, with clear instructions and helpful visual aids. You can also download the app by scanning the QR code, which allows for further customization of the button presses and access to various equalizer settings.
Call quality is clear, thanks to the presence of two microphones that help cancel out background noise during calls. The buttons on the earbuds are easy to use for answering, rejecting, and hanging up on calls. The earbuds are also water-resistant, making them suitable for some rain or sweat. However, it's important to note that the case is not water-resistant, so it's best to dry the earbuds before storing them. The performance of the earbuds in terms of music playback is impressive, with clear mids and highs. However, the bass lacks definition compared to higher-end earbuds. It is recommended to try different ear tips to find the best fit for optimal sound quality. There was a noticeable difference when I tried on different ear tips. With one of them I had a much better fit and better sound quality.
The JBuds Mini True Wireless Earbuds support spatial audio and provide access to various equalizer settings through the app. While the music and movie modes are available, the differences between them weren't particularly noticeable. The noise-canceling feature, though not the most powerful, still does a decent job. It's worth mentioning that the volume can reach high levels, and the app itself is well-designed and user-friendly. Charging the earbuds takes approximately one to two hours.
In conclusion, I would recommend the JBuds Mini True Wireless Earbuds, even if you already own another pair of earbuds. Their portability, polished app, and packed features make them a versatile choice for both work and play. They excel in areas such as phone calls, multi-device connectivity, and volume output. I really like the size of the case and the ability to put it on a key ring. The sound won't blow you away, but the call quality is great, and you can absolutely get quality sound for movies, music, or games.
Pros:
Compact and portable design
Multi-device connectivity
Clear and loud sound quality
Polished and user-friendly app
Cons:
Small size may not fit everyone comfortably
Bass definition lags behind higher-end earbuds

The worst earbuds. Didn't last. You can barely hear the audio. Battery life isn't as good anymore. It's pretty, but not good.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The Goldilocks of earbuds

Ive been using these cool tiny earbuds for the past few days and I gotta say that they are pretty awesome. Battery life is excellent, I’ve yet to charge the tiny case (which recharges the earbuds) and when I put them in this morning for use, the voice told me battery 100%! Jlab claims 5.5 hours per session and 20 hours per case charge. It seems very accurate because I haven’t charged the case since day one and I’m average about 2 hours a day + the one night I fell asleep with them in my ears and the little case still has juice. I gotta mention that when I fell asleep with them on, they didn’t fall out of my ears. Something i appreciate because I tend to lay down for bed with earbuds in so I don’t disturb my partner while listening to podcasts while falling asleep. The buds have a very nice and tight yet comfortable fit. Sound quality is very decent. No it’s not the best I’ve heard, but considering their size and fit. They sound quite good and I have no complaints. If you download the JLab app, which I recommend. You can use an equalizer to give them a bass or treble boost. I like the “JLab signature” preset. It sounds quite nice and balanced to my ears. You can also update the firmware with the app. My only complaint about these earbuds is that the touch controls are a little finicky for my big fingers because the earbuds are so small that my ear covers some of the touch surface of the earbud :D. It’s not a huge deal since you can use the app to control everything. They work, but they take some getting used to. All in all, I would recommend these to anyone looking for a good set of wireless earbuds without spending a ton of money. They’ve held a steady and reliable connection, they connect quickly when I put them in my ears, they sound good and are comfortable in my ears. You don’t need to spend a lot to get great quality. JLab provides an excellent value with these tiny earbuds. The case is so small, I forget that they are in my pocket sometimes!

Yikes, these things are tiny. Features such as Bluetooth, multipoint Bluetooth (listen with a friend!), noise cancelling, and a charging case with 20 hours of charge that fits comfortably on a key-chain are what you get with the JLab JBuds Mini. Each earbud also holds a 5.5-hour charge.
The packaging is suitably sized for the diminutive product and is pretty traditional other than a clever folding pattern dividing the sections. The plastic of the charging case is a traditional hard plastic adorned with a fabric tether on one end to slip the supplied metal keyring through and then eventually attach to something. The buds are accompanied by three sets of different-sized tips, the charging case, and a short USB-C to USB-C charging cord manufactured in the blue color typical of JLab’s color theme. There is also a quick start guide that covers the basics of pairing, etc. and points to the JLab app and latest version manual via QR codes.
Speaking of the app, it is pleasingly simple with access to a full, 1-octave interval graphic equalizer that is called custom, and additionally, three other pre-selected curves, and movie and music modes. There is a section of the app that gives you settings also controlled by various touch methods (tapping or holding) on the end surfaces of each individual earbud such as volume, voice assist (like Siri), play/pause, music/movie mode, track forward, EQ change, Be Aware ambient sound detection, answering calls, hanging up calls, and rejecting incoming calls.
After applying a charge via the supplied USB cord, loading the JLab app and selecting an appropriate ear tip size, we are ready to check them out. As I’ve mentioned in another review, my ear canals are on the larger size, so I started with the largest ear tips and was met with a very tinny, no-bass sound indicating that the critical seals in the ear canals were not happening. So, digging around in my spare ear tip bag, I found a pair of larger-sized silicone tips that fit the body of the earbuds and tried them with some music and the sound was much better. I also tried some foam ear tips that were too small to seal, so I gave up on those. After playing around with the different EQ presets and the custom EQ position, I found some settings that were reasonably good, although not the best I’ve ever heard. One of the concerns with the larger ear tips, is that there is a size limitation to the area in the charger case allotted to the ear tip area due to the smaller original size of these ear buds. The tips I used to achieve a better sound barely fit in that part of the case, but they did, and allowed charging to occur.
The phone capability of the earbuds was described as being somewhat distant by persons I was on the phone with. I would have had to increase my speaking voice volume considerably to achieve a reliable conversation. Although the documentation doesn’t go into much detail about the claimed noise cancelling feature, it may be that it may only pertain to cancelling noise on the microphones for phone use. There is no on/off function to test with ambient noise cancelling, although with a good physical ear tip seal, background noise is lessened, although not perhaps to the level that leading over-the-ear noise cancelling headphones achieve.
A person of smaller size in my household, using the largest of the factory supplied ear tips was very happy with the seal, the bass response, and the overall sound. She went so far as to say, “These are mine now.” She cited that they felt so much more confidently positioned in the ear compared to other models, as they did not protrude out very far because of the smaller overall size and felt like they wouldn’t accidently come out unexpectedly. I can second that opinion despite perhaps not being in the target audience for this product that may be more intended for a smaller-sized user. She said she preferred the sound to the half-eaten fruit brand she was now using even considering they were the (far) more expensive model.
These earbuds are truly mini in size although pretty big in both value and performance for the correctly-sized consumer. Their easy-to-take-along demeanor witnessed by the ability to hang around on a key-chain or hang around from a carabiner onto the side of a backpack, purse, or belt-loop makes these a ready and capable travel companion.

The primary appeal of the Jlab JBuds Mini is right in the name - they're mini, and notably so. The case itself fits in the palm easily and can be attached to your house/car keys or slipped into a pocket without adding significant bulk. They're certainly the smallest earbuds I've ever used, and they manage to be impressive despite their size.
Since these are an in-ear design, they manage to provide some level of noise isolation even without ANC (active noise cancellation) - great for commuting. With the JLab app, you can also enable transparency ("Be Aware") mode and tweak EQ settings - the "JLab Signature" and "Balanced" settings worked better for me than "Bass Boost", which at times was actually physically painful to listen to, but you can create custom EQ settings and adjust as you see fit which is a great benefit. Though I'm no audiophile, I felt the JBuds Mini had surprisingly good sound quality for their small form factor - though they did come off a little "muted" or as if something was lacking, even with the Bass Boost EQ setting and even with the volume maxed. My Airpods sound better in my opinion, but they're also a fair bit larger. Sound is subjective, at any rate! These are certainly better than the cheap Skullcandy buds you might find at train stations in my view, and hardly a disappointment.
Battery life is also more than adequate, with the buds themselves lasting over four hours on a single charge and the case lasting me the day. Again, these fall just short of my Airpods (which seem to last forever!) but I can excuse that given the size. You can easily get through a full day without needing to top up, and even if you do, the USB-C charging input makes it trivial to do so.
The IP55 rating means you can use these for workouts without worrying about damaging them from sweat, and the touch controls - though finicky in my experience - can be remapped mostly to your choosing (a notable exception is movie mode, which can't be remapped from the left bud; if you - like me - often have just one bud in, you can't easily swap from music to movie mode using touch controls with the right bud in). I did feel that these weren't particularly comfortable for longer sessions, but for lightweight listening on the bus or train during a commute, these work great.
That seems to be the running theme for the JBuds Mini, in my experience with them. They're not the most robust set of buds out there, but their form factor and design are so clearly oriented towards being light, travel-friendly earbuds versus a "premium" listening experience that I can't complain. They do fantastic at being a "grab and go" pair of buds that you can clip to your keys and if all you want these for is having a set of earbuds ready to go, on the go...these are hard to pass up. You sacrifice some battery life and audio quality but for those wanting portability and travel-friendliness above all else, it's hard to think of a set better suited than these. The JBuds Mini won't be replacing my Airpods, but it's hard to deny the utility these offer and they'll likely live on my keys as a backup set of earbuds for travel.

The JLab Mini earbuds are a fantastic choice for anyone seeking quality audio in a compact package. Despite their small size, they deliver impressive sound with clear highs and solid bass, perfect for music, podcasts, or calls. The fit is comfortable and secure, ideal for workouts or daily commutes. Battery life is remarkable, offering hours of playback, and the charging case is pocket-friendly. Pairing is seamless with Bluetooth 5.1, and the touch controls are intuitive. For the price, the JLab Mini punches above its weight, making it a stellar option for budget-conscious audiophiles!

These are the smallest earbuds I’ve ever seen in terms of size and case. Despite the size, they still fit snugly in my ear and stay put when I’m out and about. The are also the only earbuds I’ve found that fit my 8 year old, which has been a big hit around the house for him.
The buds are largely meant for convenience, as their small size and attached keyring allow you to easily bring them with you whenever you are. That said, the sound quality is lacking in comparison to a fuller size earbud. The bass is thin and almost non-existent, but the highs are fairly clear and not tinny.
I’ve made a few phone calls on these and told they sound okay, but nothing to get excited about. The mic does seem to easily pick up, despite being so small and far from my mouth.
As for connecting these, they connect effortlessly and go into pairing mode as soon as you pull them out. The battery life is also really impressive. Overall, I think these are great earbuds if you are looking for backup pair, or you don’t use earbuds often. They are plenty comfortable, but the lack of bass is bothersome. In a pinch, I would be very happy to have these attached to my keyring, but long term I would want something with a fuller range.

Quick Overview
=================================
If you're looking for a tiny set of true wireless earbuds for maximum portability, discreet listening, or just because you need smaller earpieces for your ears, check out these Jlab Jbuds Mini True Wireless Earbuds!
Overall build
=================================
The first thing you'll notice is that everything is tiny! The box itself is tiny and they're billed as the smallest true wireless earbuds of any major headphone brand. The box, case and earbuds are seriously tiny! The box even includes a keychain ring and a tiny USB-C cable.
Yes, the earbuds are made of plastic, but it doesn't mean they aren't sturdy! They are IP55 rated for dust and sweat, so you should be able to use this for a workout as long as you're not dunking them in water!
Back to the earbuds themselves, they are tiny! First thing you'll want to do is remove each from the charging case and peel of a sticker that was blocking the electrical contacts. After that, place them back in the case, let it charge to full just in case, and then you're ready to go.
Performance
=================================
Pairing these is a cinch since they're BT 5.3 and they literally popped up at the bottom of my phone screen when I removed them from the case. Since they support multipoint, you can pair them with your work laptop or work phone so you can easily switch from one to another. Again, this is a seriously underrated feature that isn't something you can take for granted, even on some more expensive brands. Kudos to Jlab for incorporating BT multipoint across so many of their products! Right after pairing, the app notified me about a firmware update and that happened without a hitch!
Before you listen to any earbuds, you'll want to ensure a proper seal by selecting the right tips. Jlab includes S, M (attached), and L tips so use the one you want for a proper seal to maximize the sound quality. Also, since these aren't ANC-enabled, you'll want to block out the outside noises. After that, slip these tiny buds into your ears. I can't imagine an ear that wouldn't find these comfortable except for those with the largest of ears. They are so small, that you can adjust and pivot these all around to get the best fit.
Firing up some Spotify from Kpop to Jpop to EDM, the first thing I noticed as a lack of bass and warmth, so I used their "bass boost" EQ profile which definitely helped. Yes, these are small drivers that may not have enough power, but I think the sound quality tops out at "good enough for workouts and work calls". Getting a good seal and adjusting the EQ to your preference will really help!
There are simple touch controls on each ear and since each earbud is so small, it's easy to push them while making any fit adjustments so watch out for that. Luckily the touch controls (and all sorts of things) can be configured/disabled/enabled in the app.
While you're in the app, there's also a Movie Mode and Music Mode you can switch between (configurable on the touch controls also) for less lag/lip sync while you're watching Netflix or YouTube. It really helps, so if you notice some issues while watching video, switch modes! You'll want to switch back and forth as needed since Movie Mode probably consumes more battery and reduces the effective range. Still, it's a great feature to have when needed!
From a technical perspective, these only support SBC, which is a good all-around BT codec, but it won't give you the dynamic range or quality of APT-X variations. That's OK, though - these aren't top-of-the-line earbuds!
Lastly, there's a transparency mode (Jlab calls it Be Aware) that you can turn on to allow for some ambient sound to make it in. I still wouldn't recommend these for riding a bike or jogging on the street, but perhaps the use-case is while you're working at home and need to ensure you can listen for your children, pets, a doorbell, etc. The transparency mode works well, but since I wasn't getting a perfect seal and was keeping the volume at mid-high levels, I could still hear loud sounds around me.
They should last 5+ (rated at 5.5) hours for each listening session and the case has enough battery to charge them again 3 more times.
They are so compact, these really are a pair you can take with you anywhere. I have a lot of different sets that may have a decent sized earbud, but have huge, un-pocketable charging cases! If you need to have a set with you all the time, consider these!
Conclusion
=================================
If you have a need to keep your music with you at all times, these tiny buds and tiny case will help make that happen! If you have smaller ears and can't find comfortable larger pairs, these would be a great solution also. They don't skimp on features with multipoint and Movie Mode, but just be aware they may not be the best sounding pair you have. Still, like the old adage goes about cameras, the best earbuds are the ones you have with you!

I've been a fan of JLab products for many years now. In fact my go-to ear buds for all my work meetings, Teams calls etc that are shared between my phone and my MacBook are with a set of JLab ear buds.
These JLab Mini True Wireless Earbuds take that previous form, and shrink it drastically. They are absolutely tiny! Almost to the point that the first time I put them in my ear, I was concerned I wasn't going to get them out again! Of course, that wasn't the case, they aren't 'that' small, but after 'regular' sized JLab earbuds, these really were tiny! And they offer the same functionality, the ability to connect to both a computer and a phone at the same time. This is useful when you are in a meeting with work for an example and you choose to answer a phone call, they automatically switch from your computer to your phone. And when you are done, they switch back to your computer. Very handy indeed.
Setting up is a breeze, and I recommend that you download the JLab app beforehand as well as that is where you get the full control of the earbuds. Within the app, once you've paired your headphones, you'll get to adjust the settings to your liking.
Be Aware: This gives you the ability to adjust the level of what you hear around you, or totally turn it off. There is a slider to adjust the levels to create a nice balance for you.
Equalizer: Here you have some preset levels you can select, or you can go totally custom with a 10-channel equalizer. You can save your presets and refer to them later, depending on if you are using the earbuds for music or if you are in meetings, or taking calls for example.
Touch Controls: Here you can set up your tap control preferences, e.g. one tap left for volume up, two taps right to skip to the next track etc. You have quite a few options to choose from - you just need to remember what they are! That will be the biggest challenge to start with, but once you've remembered what number of taps does what, you'll be fine!
Music Mode/Movie Mode: As the labels suggest this gives you the option to change between different sounds, based upon your listening preferences.
Safe Hearing: Here you can set the max limit for the volume. I have it set to 'default' and they sound great. You can set it a lot lower, 85dB to start with, 95dB in the middle and then 'default'.
Update Firmware: You will need to update the firmware as soon as you pair the headphones with your phone or computer. That is the nature of products these days, they are constantly enhanced and updated.
The app also shows you the charge level for the earbuds. They give around 5 hours of playback (in my experience) per outing, with a total of 20 claimed hours in the case, so they will definitely last you for the day in the office. The earbuds charge back up pretty quickly from the case, although the included instructions do mention how quick to get to x amount of charge.
They come with 2 other sets of earbud tips and a USB C charging cable. When using the largest earbud tips in my ears, I got the absolute best bass response from them! It felt like they really sealed around my ears and resonated the bass a lot better. Now, they won't win any SPL bass contests, but it's a nice full deep bass, especially for their size.
My test was with the latest Machine Head album, which has a variety of soft sounding, melodic songs, and intense, deep and heavy metal songs, so a good balanced test.
Overall, I am impressed once again with JLab and their ability to get great quality at an affordable price which is oh-so-rate these days. Would absolutely recommend them!

Great little ear buds. The charging case is small, and the buds fit in your ears better than most others on the market. A premium product if ever I've seen one. Charges fast and it fits on your key ring. Pairing is super easy takes only seconds. Most importantly the sound quality is amazing. Long battery life. Low price high quality. 10/10

They're fine for the price. They are smaller than regular in-ear buds which is great. The small carrying case is awesome as is the vibrant coloring. Charging is easy.
The issue is with the pairing. As far as I can tell, you can only have it connected to one device and in order to connect it to a different device, it must first be disconnected from the original device which can be very annoying if you have it connected to your laptop at home and then forget to disconnect and need to use it with your phone at work. Maybe mine just don't have the ability to multi-connect but if it has been connected to anything else without explicitly disconnecting, it does not have any ability to pair with a different device in a different location.
So, it's fine especially if you only plan to use it with one item ever, but it can be very inconvenient.
Also, I think the mic is only so-so. I have had a few people ask me to repeat myself multiple times which has never happened with previous airbuds.

I’m the kind of person who loves to hear music, podcasts, and videos while I am doing whatever I have to do, which is why I needed to find a good pair of wireless earphones. These are the second pair of earphones I’ve gotten from JLab and I am very happy with them! It is super easy to connect them to your device(s). Also, I’ve found that the connection stays strong even at a fair distance, which I love because it allows me to move around and put things away quickly without having to carry my device with me all the time. This pair is truly a very small fit but still fits comfortably. I especially love the case and how it charges the earphones so whenever I am not using them, they can be charged and ready for the next time I need to use them. They have a “be aware” feature, which is a nice safety feature whenever I need to be aware of my surroundings. I like how the sound is still very clear even when it is in this mode. There is also a music and movie mode, and you can skip, raise, and lower the volume by just tapping on them. You can also customize the sound experience through the app. They are a very functional pair of earphones and I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

I've been wearing these earbuds on and off all day for a while now and I have to say they might be my favorite! They fit in my ears super well and they are so small that sometimes other people dont see that you are wearing them! Also its really nice just to attach this small case to my keys to have quick access to the earbuds no matter where I'm at. The only downside is the bluetooth... My head starts to hurt if i wear these longer than an hour because of the bluetooth, but that's the problem with all earbuds,not just these.

Have had these earbuds before in the mint and they were perfect, just lost em so i needed another pair. Fits right into my ear and doesnt fall out like all the earbuds ive bought. Have used em for bout 8 hours when i was working outside and they didnt die on me. You just pop em back in the case for a few min. Ive had some $200 earbuds that claimed to be small and wouldnt fall out but i would still have to pushem back in, even after switching the earnubs. The price is banger for what these buds can give, highly recommend.

Great quality for the price. I use these at work. They are super small so not easy to notice when in the ear. The case does not take up any space in my pocket. These Buds are also very comfortable in the ears. The most comfortable I’ve had even better than the high end expensive buds Ive owned. The sound quality is very good as well. I go 2 weeks in between charges.

I eventually got these even though I have more JLab headphones and earbuds than I need because JLab keeps making interesting products. They have always been a great value for the money with their products and available options seen on more expensive models.
The only reason 4 out of 5 stars is the battery life doesn't seem to live up as advertised. I still have a pair of 10+ year old JLab earbuds that last the full length of advertised time as when I first opened the box, and all my other JLab products' battery life as been spot on (or greater) without losing juice over the years. So they make a good product with good batteries. Which is why this particular pair is docked 1 star because I know theirs battery life should be top notch. It seems I charge the case more often than expected, but the earbuds themselves do last quite a while.
I finally ordered them because I was curious just how small they really were...and they really are small. Tiny. But great sounding like their other earbuds. I bought them for portability to always have a pair with me without taking up pocket space or carrying bulky cases. I wear these on a necklace under my shirt and now I'm never without earbuds in a pinch.
I recommend the JLab Mini's for anyone wanting convenience of carry or and/or for anyone needing a smaller fitting earbud for comfort or just to have.

These are my favorite. I love them much better than my apple pods and my beats. I love the minimalist style and that I can carry them on my keychain. Awesome sound quality. Only downfall is my ears are small so long time use irritates my ears. Of they make the base slightly smaller id purchase every color

Bought these to fill the gap between a broken pair of Ankers and whatever my next actual earbuds would be. Turns out these tiny, lightweight buds have been perfect for my use. Gym several days a week plus mowing the yard and kust hanging out. I was worried about the tiny size (6'7") but ive really come to appreciate them. They are totally in ear, do fairly well at cancelling out noise and although i was worried about dropping and losing them. Complete non-issue. Put a lanyard on it and keep them around my neck. Absolute recommend unless youre pretty picky about sound. I can hear it, i can understand it, job well done.

Very small and compact. Both good and bad.
Each bud connects separately and sometimes does not pair/sync together. Often I find myself with only one bud in ear with sound.
Beyond that, sound quality is clear. Picking up audio is more troublesome however. Comments from audience on calls are sound quality is distant with spots of static.
Going back to size. When inserted in ear, the small size of the buds make accessing the face/control hard since it angles more inward vs. facing out of the ear. Hope that makes sense.
I can live with this, but I prefer the Jbud model with the ear hook.
