Review: Highly recommend! - Updated Review After A Few Months: So, I've had a few months with these and they have certainly diminished over time. Bluetooth connection has grown weaker. My oldest pair of these will only stay connected when there is audio playing. My newest pair (From like, a month after my first pair) is still going strong, only a few issues here and there. Between my purchases, they updated the design of the ear pads and made the mounting arms wider. I have 2 feelings about this; A. I love that they listen. JLabs is a good company that makes really solid gold standard baseline tech items It's affordable, it's good quality, I would easily recommend JLab products. B. I hate the redesign lol. My glasses are very thin so this just adds a lot to my glasses and shoves into my face. The arms going out a bit more jab into the side of my head. I'm not a fan of this design decision. Personally, I would prefer if they had options so everybody could be happy about it. But, it's not such a bad design that it subtracts from the overall experience. It's one of those annoyances that you'll forget about after a minute. But it is there. As it currently stands, I would still recommend these, EASILY. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Initial Review: Honestly, I'm really surprised by these and I don't see how they could be anything but 5 stars personally. How do they Sound? - They sound great! Like, surprisingly so. I would compare the sound quality to that of just listening to your phone speaker, but if it was like, in your blind spot? lol So it's not like, a Dolby experience by any means, but it's also not bad at all. How do they pair? - Pairing them is a little funky, you need to make sure they are both on before you pair, otherwise you're just gonna pair one. Which is a fine flaw imo, it's essentially a pair of bluetooth headsets anyways. If they're both on, you just have to pair it once, it'll pop up as one thing. If you pair one and then try to pair the other, it'll pop them both up as individual things. Make sure both of them say "Hello" What does it feel like to wear them? - Honestly, I forget they are there. They are both so incredibly lightweight. If I said my glasses didn't move at all from the extra weight, I'd be lying, but it's surprisingly a lot less movement than you'd thing. It's almost negligible to what you'd normally experience from just moving around. Plus you get these rubber cushions so it's super unobtrusive overall. if you position them right, you'll forget like they are there entirely. How does the microphone sound? - Well, it's not the worse I've ever heard. It's surprisingly clear but it's also quite metallic sounding. It kinda sounds like you're halfway in the background talking into a phone from the early 2010's? I tested the microphone audio using both these as a headset and a pair of really nice studio quality high fidelity headphones. It sounds better when hearing the microphone's audio back through these headphones, it sounds much more distant using my nice headphones through an Equalizer. How good is the Audio Projection, these don't go into the ears right? - Correct! They sit on your glasses, in front of your ear. I mentioned sorta all the relevant bits to this question. Sounds like a phone speaker, kinda sorta tinny but overall pretty clear. In terms of hearing the audio when you aren't the one wearing it though? - You'll still hear it for sure, but it definitely will not be anywhere as loud as when they are on your head. Kinda sounds like a muffled phone speaker at a distance. At least at full volume. A lot easier to miss it if the volume is lower, although it starts getting a bit harder to hear after awhile, obviously. How is the Battery life? - 8 hours of use and way more just idle is crazy and I 100% believe it. Better battery life than my watch. Are there any Controls? - there is 1 button on each device. Long pressing them turns them on and off. Single pressing them turns the volume up or down. Right = Up, Left = Down. Double pressing the right button will play or pause whatever you're watching. Super nice feature. I can listen to what I'm listening to as I walk to the kitchen and pause it if somebody starts talking to me without being at my computer. What about the Material? - Plastic. Honestly, overall they do feel pretty cheap, but I actually don't think this is a negative. It's not a bad cheap feeling, like I couldn't snap it with my fingers just attaching it a little stronger than I needed to. It's lightweight and I think the cheapness of it the material actually makes it better. What does it come with? - 2 devices, 1 charging cable that charges both at the same time, a REALLY nice little carrying bag and a 3 month free trial to Tidal. So that's really neat. Makes me feel like some actual care and consideration went into these Overall, These are such a GOOD deal. $15 and you get 2 bluetooth headsets, a nice case, a nice charger and a 3 month subscription to Tidal? It's an absolute steal. If you want Smart glasses but don't wanna drop $300 for something you already have on your face, These are a must!
Review: Did not work; would not sync and locked up - Really wanted this to work for me, as other products did not. I am a glasses wearer and wanted the open ear tech with Alexa compatibility. PRO: the Sound was actually pretty good. CONS: 1. The jbuds did not properly stay in place on the glasses frames, tried to use the included rubber spacers, which DID work, but unfortunately pressed into my temples to much causing it to be sore within an hour. Had to rely on tape to keep them in place. 2. Had extreme difficulty getting both of them to sync with each other, and the phone. Only one or the other side would connect most of the time, and they would not sync together as they were supposed to. Did finally manage to get them to work together after doing some Manual Reset function, but on the next use they were back to not syncing with each other again. 3. The first time I tried to use them for an actual phone call, the phone refused to switch over to them, despite being connected and paired with bluetooth. Turned out that the right side earbud actually 'locked up' in the ON position, and stopped responding to button presses and could not Reset it. No amount of pressing the only button on it worked, or could turn it off. There is no way of doing a Reset unless its working. Overall: I bought these because they went from $50 to $14 here, and now I understand why. The included instructions are less than forthcoming in actual instruction, no idea how/how long to charge them for and they simply did not work at all for me. Processed a Return for them here....

### ⭐⭐⭐ Works as expected, but they weigh down your glasses and people near you can hear too.
*by S***2 on July 15, 2023*

Note that these are miniature speakers that you position near your ear, not over your ear. The JBuds Bluetooth easily connected with both my phone and computer. Since I work alone, I increased the volume to maximum and could hear all of the details in the audio without distortion. I listened all day at maximum volume for at least 8 hours on a single charge. These are not in-ear speakers, but external speakers, therefore, anyone close by in a quiet environment would be able to hear the JBuds. Also, they doubled the weight of my glasses and the pressure exerted by the nose bridge. The added weight and the loose fit of my glasses caused my glasses to slide down my nose when I looked down. (That's my fault for not getting my glasses fitted properly) The JBud headset and internal microphone connected and worked well with ZOOM. The photo shows the ZOOM Audio Menu with the Microphone as the "Headset (JLab JBuds Frames Hands-Free AG Audio)" and the Speaker as the "Headset (JLab JBuds Frames Hands-Free AG Audio)". The ZOOM audio was clear both through the JBud speakers and the meeting participants said the microphone audio was good. Pros - Easy Bluetooth connection, Long Battery Life (at least 8hrs), I experienced about 30ft Bluetooth range, listen to music without using an earbud that could fall out. Because it is not in your ear, you can carry on a conversation like you could with a stereo playing in the background. The JBuds come in very nice packaging and with a very-well done, illustrated and comprehensive instructions. Cons - Considerable weight for its size, people nearby can also hear what you're listening to and they are very conspicuous hanging on your glasses. The JBuds have a very complex menu system where multiple functions are controlled through the single button on each JBud. The pattern and sequence of the left side/right side button presses control the many functions of the JBuds. (Example: On/Off, Bluetooth, Volume, Track Forward/Backward, Answer Phone, Hangup, Reject call, Audio Equalizer). Conclusions: The audio (listening and microphone) works well with ZOOM Meetings. Keep the instructions close until you master the button sequences so you can use all of the functions.
