JLab JBuds Frames Wireless Open-Ear Audio for Your Glasses, 8-hour Bluetooth Playtime

Love Them!
First off, I will go ahead and say I am appalled at the reviews. How many people complain that these make your glasses fall off your face. Maybe if you get your glasses fitted properly you wouldn’t be having those issues…On to the product.They are very light and durable. I’ve dropped them a few times and they’re still kicking. They’re super comfortable and a lot of the times I forget they’re even there. As others have said, they are mini speakers and their sound is phenomenal. A little quiet for my taste at times (but I am 70% deaf in my right ear) but the sound is clear and crisp. They have a little bit of bass to them so it isn’t off-putting. People directly nearby you CAN hear what you’re listening to if it is at full volume in a relatively quiet room and they’re right next to you… otherwise, I use these at work and nobody is bothered by it even when I asked if they were too loud.The only con I have to say is that the battery doesn’t last as long as I’d like them to. I work 8+ hours and they usually only last about 8.5-9.5 hours depending on what it is I’m using them for.I love them very much and I plan on buying multiple as backups.These have treated me well since I have small inner ears and other headphones or earpieces give me earaches after just a few hours of use. The best thing if you can’t afford built in speaker frames!

Save your money and buy something else!
The concept of these Bluetooth speakers is great, unfortunately that is where the positives for this product end.The sound quality is awful for music. It doesn’t matter what type of file, bit rate, genre of music or EQ you try to use it will not sound good. All treble, terrible muffled mids and no bass. For spoken word such as podcast and audio books it would suffice, but barely since even at loudest volume it is barely audible.Luckily I didn’t have to endure the terrible sound quality for long since the product broke after a day of use. As you can see in the picture the tactile button on the right frame headset broke within 12 hours of use rendering half of the functions of the device useless. I contacted JLabs figuring they would want to do the right thing…wrong. Despite “great customer service” and “standing behind their product” all over their website, it seems it is the last thing they want to do.You can send the product in for warranty service, but you must pay postage. From their email:”JLab is not responsible for shipping cost incurred when sending your product”Since postage cost would be over half the price of this product’s original cost that option is out. When I responded with my frustration they provided a second option, destroy the product and send them pictures and wait for a replacement.”We typically require customers to send in their products. In your case, please send us proof of purchase. After we approve- send us a picture of your audio product rendered inoperable. For True Wireless products, please destroy both earbuds along with the charging case to receive credit for a full unit replacement. When we receive your proof of disposal, we will issue you a store credit for the value of your item as currently listed on our site.”Awesome, let me just grab a hammer and smash this into pieces in hopes you will send a replacement. Do yourself a favor and buy something else. If the sound quality and overall quality of this product was better it would be a great purchase, but it’s not. In addition, the warranty service is a joke. Shout out to Davian at JLabs for all your “great customer service” and “standing behind your product!”

This is an amazing little gadget! If you see this on for $29.99, I HIGHLY recommend getting it for someone who can’t wear ear/headphones, and isn’t a major audiophile. I would say the sound is equivalent to about $15-$20 earbuds. Bass isn’t super amazing, but I personally don’t expect that from bud-less earphones.I can still hear my surroundings fairy well. At max volume I can’t hear my surroundings very well and people around me can hear a very faint sound- take that how you will.I can’t see them in my peripherals, and they’re lightweight enough for me to hardly notice they’re there.I will say that if these were on for regular price ($60) I might be a little more hesitant on purchasing, but on sale? Amazing. Chef’s kiss. A treat.

These are fantastic.
