Awesome earbuds!

4

Jlabs is an awesome company that makes good pairs of earbuds. The J2 earbuds are great, but J3 earbuds are my favorite so far. They are pretty similiar, J2 is more plastic, while J3 earbuds are metal. Sound quality is similar and I have not had problems with either of them. They stay in my ear when running and like other earbuds come with a variety of rubber pieces for you to choose. The rubber pieces dont fall off the earbuds at all, unlike other brands where I kept losing them because they were loose. I find that the earbuds last much longer than other brands and for a great price too. The have a one year warranty for their earbuds and so far I've had great experiences dealing with their customer service. However, many of my earbuds have lasted well over one year, whereas other brands would break within a few months. It's definitely worth it to try these earbuds out if you are looking for a new pair.

Jbuds J2 earbuds are great for knocking about.

First let me say I am no audio-file. I like my music, but I am not the person to ask about high fidelity. What I am looking for in earbuds is something that won't fall out of my ear, and will last longer than a few months. The J2s have done both quite well. Since the J2 comes with three different sizes of silicone covers, I am able to tailor the fit to my ear. Nothing is more frustrating than being in the middle of a task - and song - and having one of your earbuds fall out of your ear. The J2s fit well and stay put. They are comfortable, and work well under earmuffs (sound reduction types). The J2s do reduce outside noises, but its due to something stuck in your ear versus true noise cancellation. The j2s have also held up well through various tasks. I typically wear them while doing yard work or other household tasks. Mowing the lawn, using the chipper, trimming hedges, house painting, construction, etc. So far so good - no issues whatsoever.

Great Headphones

5

I ordered a pair of Jbuds J2 headphones for a Christmas gift to a family member, and another pair for myself. They were incredibly impressive after breaking them in. Some reviews I had read on them said that they did not have enough bass in them, but I had absolutely no problems with the bass levels of the headphones. I use them to listen to everything from mellow acoustic bands to hardcore and metal bands, and I have no complaints. Very high quality sound, and a very reasonable price. My only con was that after roughly 2 months of intensive use the pair that I owned lost sound to the right earbud. However I contacted customer service and they sent a new pair to me no questions asked completely free. The customer service rep was very helpful and I wouldn't hesitate to work with them again.

Decent Budget Buds

3

Let's face it, the iPhone earbuds suck. Why pay so much for an awesome mp3 player only to be limited by the headphones you're using. I've had good experience with Jbuds before, their Jbuds1 specifically. Those were decent quality for a really cheap price. As good as the original Jbuds were, they were far from great. That's why I figured paying a premium for the Jbuds2 would be worth it. When I got them, I noticed the packaging was almsot identical to the originals and the buds looked for the most part the same. That didn't worry me because I loved the fit and feel of the originals. These are in ear buds by the way, meaning to go all the way into your ear and close them off from outside sound. WHen I tried the Jbud2 however I was severely disappointed. THe sound quality was identical to the orginals. I didn't notice an increase in sound quality at all. There is an increase in volume, but that is borderline useless to me as I listen to my music on half volume or lower.
