Excellent sound with an inexpensive price tag
What can I say? The sound quality is excellent. I had been looking into TWS headphones for several months before I bought these, and the majority of them were around $200. I had previously purchased other JLab products over the past few years, and so far none of them have disappointed. My first JLab purchase was a few years ago, the JLab Fit sport earbuds. They sound great, and have a very short cord that terminates with a 3.5mm female end, which allows you to plug in any length of cable to suit your needs. I bought them to use with a clip-on Bluetooth adapter, so any length of cable as short as 6 inches or even just a 3.5mm male connector would work great. They sounded great, especially at their $10 price tag, and allowed for a multitude of configurations. My next set was the JLab Rewind Bluetooth headphones. They look exactly like those headphones I had when I was just a kid in the 80s, complete with the bright orange covers. Maybe it's just me, but I think the $20 Rewind set sounds better and has deeper bass reflex than these $50 JBudsAir headphones, probably because of the driver and speaker sizes. In any event, these still sound great, are easy to setup and even easier to use. The carrying case/chargeris easy to use as well. The battery status of the headphones and the case are communicated by LED lights on the outside of the case and even tell you about the status of each headphone side independently. Call quality is great as well, with the audio quality on my side, as well as my voice clarity on the other end. The only thing I wish they did, but they don't allow for is the ability to use either side independently. These only allow for the right side to be used alone, which means that when the battery starts going dead, you can't recharge the right side while using the left side. Other than that, they're perfect. One thing worth a mention, but certainly not a complaint, is the recharging mechanism. Instead of having a micro USB port that require you to have a cable, there's a short, flat USB cable that presses into the bottom of the charging case and plugs directly into any USB receptacle. This cord actually allows you to plug into the port either way, so there's always a way to see the charging status. There's no such thing as plugging it in backwards... It charges both ways. Basically, instead of plugging one end of a USB cable into a charger, and the other end into a micro USB port on the case, I have a USB extension cable, one end plugged into a charger, and the other end is a female USB port that I plug the case into. So far, after having them for a couple weeks, I can't find anything wrong with them, other than the usual TWS problem of short battery life. For some reason TWS headphones are notorious for having very short battery longevity, usually between three and four hours of continuous play, and these are no different, usually running for about 3.5 hours. Not by any means am I saying that these are audiophile compliant, because the aren't. They are an inexpensive set of good quality, Bluetooth, true wireless stero headphones that are as good for phone calls as they are for playing music and watching videos. My son recommended them to me, and I in turn would recommend them to a friend.Read full review
