JBL Live Buds 3 - True Wireless Noise-Cancelling Bud-Type Earbuds 40Hrs Total Playback Wireless Charging 6 Mics for

For the price, heck yeah, these better be good. There's almost no point in writing a review because one would assume, "of course they sound great". And yes, one would be right! As I said almost no point so let's just say you'll get exactly what you paid for. Sound that hits the mark with ease. It feels like all earbuds SHOULD sound like these do. But...you only get what you pay for, so if you have the budget, pay for these. If you're picky about sound quality these buds won't disappoint. Now let's be real, what your paying that extra $60 bucks for isn't the sound quality, you really can get great LDAC sound from the capsule 3 pro or the True Engine 4 for a quarter of the price. But they don't bring the experience of ownership that these JBLs do. So where's the extra satisfaction? It's the case this comes with, the excellent design and the features of the whole package. Let do the list: The case...impressive, beautiful flawless design that provides that sense that you bought something special. A set of buds that just ain't average. Functional in ways that your non tech savvy pals will praise you for your taste. The comfort...Yeah, so don't worry, these buds are so comfortable in your ears you'll be hesitant to use the stem style bud you love and hate again. The ear tips are cushion soft. They don't apply pressure to you ear, make you ears feel stuffed. Simply put them on and they lay on you ears curves like their taking a nap. The buds are light and comfortable even for long periods. These aren't sport buds and they don't squeeze into your ear canal so don't go playing tennis or B-ball with 'em. These things work well for casual down time and leisurely activities. You get 5 sets of eartips with this. Four are " stuckied"in the uniquely designed package, and the fifth, second largest tips, are in the ear buds themselves. They are easy to change. No fuss. The case displays basic info about what's playing on the buds and has a feature or two that make it next level, justifying the extra cost. The sound quality is bright in the mid highs and highs, so it may require some taming using EQ. The mids are strong and tend to need some input from the bass which seems to me to be the most responsive to EQing. The bass can achieve that modernernistic sub bass some folks just gotta have. The mid bass is punchy and tweakable. All in all the sound can be shaped to achieve well rounded sound profiles that satisfy. It seems you have work a bit to get these to achieve a satisfying warm sound when in LDAC mode but it achieves well controlled warmer punchy sound with a palpably deep bass right out of the box when LDAC is not on. LDAC achieves clarity to the next level, and tempts to mess with EQ just to toy around. TV:Tested LG C1: No noticeable latency. These buds are just a pleasure to use, especially because of the the comfort. I highly recommend them. JBL is doing the business and these, among their other higher prices ear buds and earphones, do indeed compete as being among the best. Read more

The battery life is excellent. I love that it charges on a wireless charging pad. That was the big selling point for me. The ear bud pads aren’t super comfortable for me, but none ever have so I don’t know if I’ll ever find any that are. The quality is awesome. The connectivity is almost flawless. Absolutely worth the money. The sound is crisp. The ambient aware setting is quite good and you can easily have a conversation while both buds are in. Worth it. Read more

I’m quite finicky about earbuds. The fit, the sound, the features all need to line up and I was forever feeling like I’d get one and not the other. Not anymore. The JBL Live Buds have put an end to my search for the perfect set. The sound quality is great and has extensive options for equalization. They’re absolutely the most comfortable design I’ve ever worn. Zero ear fatigue. The Awareness mode? A GAME CHANGER. I cannot convey just how valuable this has been for my workdays. I can keep both earbuds in and still hear enough around me that I’m not ignoring people if they are trying to get my attention. Great for shopping too, you can still be aware of your surroundings and avoid overstimulating noise around you. And finally, THE SCREEN. Oh my god how genius is that??? I can see exactly where the battery life is at for both the buds AND the case. I can control the volume, the awareness mode/noise canceling, and so many other things visually. They also have the standard tap features on each earbud but I personally don’t like using those so having it right there in front of me is extremely helpful. I can’t say enough about these earbuds. Worth every penny and more! Read more

The noise canceling is good and the sound is very good. These ear buds just don't fit my ears well with any of the tips included. I ran the fit test multiple times with all the included tip sizes. They either fall out because they are so loose, or I have to forcibly screw them into my ear because the tips is too big and they hurt to wear. I have never experienced this before with any previous ear buds. I will try the new bose quiet comfort buds and hope they fit better with their "wing" bud tips. Read more

Great ear buds. I have never worn a more comfortable ear bud and I can actually lay my head on a pillow with them without changing the fit or causing discomfort. The sound is wonderful and the case is so convenient for controlling things with opening a comprehensive app. The app is excellent when you need it. Highly recommend Read more

I'd give 0 stars if I could. Case touchscreen is just slow. It doesn't remember settings. Let's day I turned off all modes (No ambient, ANC, etc) next time I put one on or I switch from one headphone to another it re-enabled passthrough audio. So frustrating. Case closing spring is terrible. If you drop the case 1ft it will open and both buds will fly out. Case contacts or bud contacts may be terrible or maybe the case programming just sucks but it randomly connects to my phone when both buds are in the case and the case is in my pocket. I have to open the case, remove both headphones and place them back in the case for it to turn them off. Didn't get me wrong, the headphones themselves are great when they work, great sound, great base, and even ANC isn't too bad. But the other issues literally make you annoyed non stop. I have a feeling these were rushed to production and the testing was not complete before they were released. These small issues 100% ruin the experience. Read more

Absolutely love the product. Battery life is decent, it has great fit. Love the volume control it has on the screen. Would recommend to other people Read more
