In terms of comfort, the silicone eartips do a good job of blocking out noise. The included cush fins also help with comfort by relieving some stress off the ear and adding friction. But, it was when I switched to the memory foam ear tips that I really felt a difference. The memory foam ear tips are simply fantastic. Combine them with the fact that the earbuds are SUPER light, and once the earbuds are in, you can actually forget they are there.These headphones boast a 6hr battery life per earbud, which can be lengthened up to 30 hours with the included case. What I can say about the battery life so far is that while commuting to school with the earbuds at around 70-80% volume (which is almost TOO loud)with ‘Be Aware’ on, after around 2 hours, the battery did drain to ~ 70% according to my SmartThings application on my Galaxy Note. If I had the ‘Be Aware’ off, I am fairly certain the battery life would be a lot better. I am also convinced that after using the headphones for a longer time, like a couple of weeks, the battery will break in a little better.There are some "drawbacks" to the headphones though to take note of:1) Can’t adjust volume/sensitivity of Be Aware Audio. At times, the Be Aware feature is amazing and it's like I have super sonic hearing. But at other times, I still have to take an earbud out to hear another person talking. This left me wishing and wanting a setting to change the sensitivity of the Be Aware feature so I won't have to take out the earbuds as often. Don't get me wrong, the feature works wonders! You can actually carry on conversations with people real time, no lag, no latency, but in certain scenarios like some background conversational environments, I wish I could either heighten the sensitivity or tweak it manually. This segways into the second thing I am not too fond of with the headphones...2) Only the right earbud can be used when wanting to use them individually. While using the right earbud alone isn't a problem, what made this issue stand out was when I would have just the right earbud in for an extended period of time and then I hear the battery low indication. I would go to recharge to see a fully charged left earbud that I can't use until the right earbud gets more charge. Not the biggest deal ever but at times, that can be really annoying as sometimes I would want to use just the left and to get that, I would have to either just hold the right earbud in my hand or put it in my pocket, which I don't want to do because if the right earbud is gone, well, there goes your headphone usability.2.5) Sometimes the left eatbud loses connection. I labelled this as 2.5 because this is kind of an issue on its own but I feel like it goes along with the 2nd issue above and that if the left could also be used individually, then this problem wouldn't exist. Usually, the earbuds work fine (around 80% of the time). But sometimes, the left earbud will either a) ger noticably softer and quieter in volume levels, b) cut out completely for up to 10 seconds before reconnecting or c) a combination of the two. Some days it is really bad and to fix it usually takes a simple "Take the left earbud out, put it in the case for a second or two to turn it off and then take it back out". That tends to solve the problem but sometimes it doesn't and I need to put both earbuds in the case, take them out and then sometimes they work better. Again, this does not happen all the time, as the earbuds will only do this maybe once every week or two weeks and the fix is pretty simple, but I do believe that if the left earbud was made to be used individually, this problem could be negated as I never, ever have connection issues with the right, which can be used individually.3) Battery status range is way too large. The battery indication is great but my phone does not show each earbud individually nor have I found an app to do this either. So the 3 levels of battery full, medium and low are kind of vague, especially when the 'medium' ranges from 20%-80% battery. I would like to see (or rather hear) a few more levels like maybe a "Battery Full", "Battery 80%", "Battery 60%" etc4) Limited EQ. I would like to see a multi-band EQ for these headphones. Some music players have this already built in and it works well (such as PowerAmp) but for other apps like Spotify, I sometimes am wishing for just a little more bass or mids that can be easily tweaked with an manual or graphic EQ.Overall, despite my stated drawbacks, I really love these headphones. I use them everyday for commuting, working out and even just working around the house. I highly recommend these headphones to anyone thinking about picking them up!!!

I had been excited about and wanted these earbuds ever since they had come out on April 30. I had refrained from preordering them since I had just ordered the original Jbuds Air. But then, after another set of true wireless earbuds to replace the original jbuds air, I decided to preorder these. All I can say is that I have not regretted it, and it was worth the wait. Here goes my full review of these. Build Quality 9.3/10: The build quality is good. The earbuds feel pretty sturdy, and the case is made of vegan leather and feels very nice. The case feels like it will last a long time as well. Comfort 9/10: Is decent to very good. These fit very similar to the original Jbuds Air,except they do feel a little lighter and go just a tiny bit deeper in the ear. I found that the medium tip fits me well, but the cloud foam fits me better. The foam gives more noise isolation and better comfort. Features 9.5/10: Is amazing for the price. These earbuds have full touch controls. You can control everything from the volume, next/previous track, play/pause, and summon siri. You also have 3 eq settings, and have be aware audio. I have found that the be aware audio is very nice if I want to talk to someone or hear my surroundings. On the case, the usb cable is integrated, which I like because then I don't have to worry about another cable. The case also has lights that indicates if the earbuds are charging and the charge level of the case. My only complaint is you can't use the earbuds one at a time unless you use the right one. Battery Life 9.8/10: The battery life is very good. I got about 5 and half hours on a full charge, while not the advertised 6 hours, it is very close to 6 hours and much better than other true wireless earbuds. The case should charge the earbuds a few times as well. Connection 9.5/10: Is very good. The earbuds stay connected very well and the range from the phone is great. I can walk all around my house without it cutting out. The auto connect works good, while much quicker than the original jbuds air, is still not as instant as something like airpods. Microphone: 9/10: I can tell Jlab really focused on the microphone. The sound from the microphone is great. Callers on the other end say that I am very clear, and siri can hear me very well. I would definitely use these regularly for calls. Sound: Noise Isolation 8.5/10: it's good, and very good with the foam tips. Now we will go onto each sound frequency by range Lows (Bass): Overall: 7.5 Punch: 8/10 Accuracy: 7/10 The bass is very punch and decently accurate. Now is as accurate as an over ear headphone? No, but for the price, its decently accurate. Mids 8/10: The mids are very clear. They aren't as crisp as an actual over ear headphone, but for a true wireless earbuds, they are great and clean. However, sometimes, I feel like the mids could be a little louder, as vocals sound to quiet under the beat in certain songs. Highs 8.5/10: The highs are very clear. They have great accuracy. They are a little bright for some people (especially in the signature setting), but I personally like that. Overall Sound Rating: 8/10 Overall, these are very good sounding true wireless earbuds. They have punchy bass, and very clean, clear sound. They sound much better than a much more expensive unnamed big white competitor (COUGH COUGH COUGH). They also have 3 equalizer settings. I personally find that signature sounds the best (which is what these ratings are based on). Balanced takes the bass and energy out, and bass boost is WAY too much. Video latency 8/10: On iPhone, there is virtually no latency, except in the youtube app or website, which is in every earbud and headphone I have tested, but in Netflix, hulu, amazon video, no latency. Overall, I would recommend these to someone who is looking for good sounding earbuds to travel, make phone calls, and use everyday. Besides the fact of not being able to use each independently, I can't think of any cons. But anyways here goes a pros and cons Pros: Great sound quality and bassGood battery lifeNice looking and feeling case Be Aware AudioConnection is greatCons: Only the right earbud can be used independently.

I love these headphones! I bought these headphones after trying the JBLs true wireless which had poor headphone connectivity with my phone and between the headphones. Then I bought Jabra Elite which had really good sound quality but the microphone was not good, anytime I was on a call and walking the person on the other end could not hear me. Very frustrating after spending so much money! So on a whim I saw these and thought they were not too expensive and the case looked cool and small, so I gave them a try. Honestly the sound is great! the mic is great - not bose great - but pretty amazing. I don't think the case has ever ran out of battery before a week of using them (like 2-3 hrs a day - I charge the case here and there when I remember - but never had an issue).I think the touch controls take a bit to get used to (I have had them for 6 months and it takes me a while to recall if I had to press the right 3 times of the left 2 times). And the headphones do run out of battery quickly so I have to have some back up eadphones on me mostly on long flights but on the bright side they charge pretty quickly. So all in all these are my daily go to headphones. I have bose noise cancelling over the ear and jabra sport and use them based on the activity. But honestly these are pretty clutch for me. I never leave home without them.

I’ve been searching for my first pair of wireless earbuds and came across JLABS.I had watched so many reviews on the JLAB air and thought it was amazing for the price.When I got it the JLAB air I was a bit disappointed as they were too bulky as much as I wanted to like them and it was annoying having to push hard to press the buttons and so I returned them.I tried the skull candy Indy and the sound quality was also disappointing.I really wanted to stick with the jlab brand because of its quality so I tried the jlab executive and I must say I’m am finally satisfied.The bass on these earbuds are amazing and it fits my ears way better and I tried the mic for calls and was impressed.I love theBe Aware mode as it’s useful for when you want to hear yourself talk while talking to someone.I also love the design of the earbuds case it looks so expensive and luxurious unlike the skull candy Indy where it looked so plasticky.Bought the JLAB executives from a retailer and it was the same price as the skull candy Indy.This is definitely worth every penny for its quality and design.

I am a total gadget geek and when it comes to portable audio, I love options. As a RBNY fan of MLS, I was introduced to JLabs when I got my season ticket holder exclusive studio headphones. Loved the quality of the physical product and the sound quality is fantastic.Had an older set of buds (different brand) that I got as a gift but the charge on them was starting to fade and so when I went searching for new earbuds, I said, let me go to JLab since my RBNY headphones were so awesome and I went with the Air Executives.I love the case they come in. Super elegant, no extra cable needed for charging purposes! You can plug the case right into a USB power source and all good.The earbuds themselves are great quality with various choices for sound output in terms of bass, treble, etc. Best part is the battery life. They last for hours and hours without needing a charge. Worth every penny; I own a more expensive headset (over the ear) which I like too, but, let me be frank, when and if I need new portable audio, Jlab will be my go-to.

After deciding to buy my first pair of wireless earbuds, I knew that I wanted to stay in the JLab family due to my great experiences with their wired earbuds. I was definitely not disappointed with the Air Executives after a few weeks of use! The fit is amazing with the included cloud tips and the sound quality (with the JLab signature sound setting) is great! Not to mention the long lasting battery and easy automatic pairing once taken out of the case. While the earbuds cannot remember more than one Bluetooth device, it is little hassle to manually connect between your phone and computer. Also, the Bluetooth range is great as I can easily move across the house and even up stairs without losing connection to my phone.The case is also pretty study and has a very nice feel to it. All around, the Air Executives are an amazing value and I would recommend this product to anyone looking to make the leap into wireless earbuds.

These sound pretty good, they aren't amazing but nothing to complain about at this price. They do still sound better than the fruit branded ones :). The connection is very strong between the earbuds and my phone. Now, the one issue that I had was when I first tried to pair them, the left earbud was heavily de-synchronized from the right one. However, after I reset them and tried them again they worked perfectly. I am a huge fan of the case and the way that the LEDs tell you about the battery life of both the earbuds and the case. I have found that the earbuds are the most comfortable without the Cush Fins and with the Cloud Foam tips installed, but that just comes down to personal preference.My favorite part of the earbuds are the controls,they are very easy to understand and remember and the touch sensors aren't too sensitive or too hard to press on.

Normally being a third pair as quickly as I am would be cause for concern, but it's actually because I want them all! These headphones are all great! First pair was the original Epic Air headphones, then a pair of JBuds Air, and now I've upgraded to the Air Executive. Bluetooth connections have gone from decently quick and a little spotty when you turn your head wrong on the Epic Air to nearly instantaneous and crystal clear on the Executives. I'd give my Executives 5 stars for Value, but I wish they had the dual connect feature that the Air Icons have. I usually only have 1 in at a time if I'm at work so draining both batteries at once when they last 6 hours doesnt quite get me through the workday.If you need decent audio at a price that makes Apple look stupid expensive you need to try JLab.

I've had these for a month but the left one when I take it out of the case will sometimes not actually turn on, like no lights. The right one is fine. Also when I'm using them like an hour in the left one will just turn itself off and not charge. Happened to my dad's set too. Means I will be returning them but hope this is able to be fixed because mum wants to change me to the jbuds air instead of executive. Other than that love them. Call audio is so clear, and special jbuds audio is the best setting. Loved using them this month on journeys to universities and on the way to college. Handy little charging box with USB that works both ways(unlike most that have specific side to fit).Strong magnet so doesn't automatically open and lights on help show how much charge it has.

I bought these headphones 2 weeks ago. I love them! Using them for phone calls works beautifully. The person on the other line doesn’t even know I’m using headphones. It’s great. The sound is great. Battery great. My only complaint is they make my ears hurt after wearing them for an extended period of time. That’s why I gave them 4 starts instead of 5. Apple headphones are more comfortable but soooooo expensive. In comparison I’d say they are just as good as apple pods in every other way. (I mention this because that’s the other kind I was looking at. I’m so glad I chose these!). I would also say, If you work out hard get the sports ones. These stay in while I’m jogging.But they wouldn’t if I were doing sprints or high intensity stuff.

I’ve been through AirPods, beatsx, skull candy and Jaybird. I use earbuds 8-10 hours a day at work and have been growing frustrated with everything I’ve tried so far. Out of the list above, the Jaybirds were my favorite but caused to much discomfort to make it through the day. The fact that these came with comfy foam tips made me buy these on a whim figuring I’d return them once I found their faults. I still have them and have fallen in love, they have caused no discomfort, and last all day as long as I let them charge during lunch. Great job with these, can’t wait to see what you produce next, you have a new customer

My wife gave me a pair of JBUDS AIR TRUE WIRELESS EARBUDS last year. I really like it, considering the price, it’s a great product! I dropped mine inside the pool and the right earbud button stopped working, even though, the sound quality remains great! Knowing that the product is good, decided to do a little upgrade, and bought the JBuds Air Executive True Wireless Earbuds! The quality is the same, but it’s looks superior, even made of the same material (I guess). The only reason that I’m not giving a 5 stars review, is that it doesn’t fit so well as my old one. Anyway, it’s a great product!

28.7.2019

I've had these for a few weeks now and really enjoy them. They are comfortable to wear for long periods of time. The sound quality is crisp and bright and they are sufficiently loud for listening to any style of music. Phone conversations are clear for myself and the person I am talking to. So far, nobody has had difficulty hearing me. I sometimes wish that the right output was a little louder when speaking to someone soft spoken. Wearing both earbuds tends to remedy the issue. Do I recommend these? Yes! If you tend move around a lot or exercise, I suggest buying one of the sport models.

After comparing many different brands products in this price range I decided these are what I wanted for my 40th birthday. I am so excited to use them! They have nice noise cancelation but you can still hear someone talk to you. My only apprehension is the ear stem cushions seem to be too large for my ears and they fall out from time to time. I just put on the smallest ones in the package so I hope they will work better for me. I would be thrilled if I could purchase just the sizes I need directly from the company instead of purchasing a pack to use only one set. RATHER PLEASED.

25.6.2020

I am extremely satisfied with these and could not be happier. I have owned apple pods, jive pods and beats ear buds. None of those come even close to these which I truly like. I am not one to normally leave reviews but for all the doubters out there you should really give these a try. These earbuds not only sound great but don’t fall out of your ears. I have only had one issue with one of my earbuds and I contacted jlab customer service and spoke with Juli. She handled the issue and sent me new earbuds which I got in a few days. Thank you Jlab and keep up the good work!
