Rated 1 out of 5 by from I REALLY dislike mine I got the JBL Free (white one) from my school store and was unable to return it if I opened it. I love my JBL speakers on my Rav4, however, I was very upset with the wireless headphones after I have tried it on. It sounds very basic, too expensive for the price that I paid for ($149.99). The bass on it is very minimal and worse thing, the ear buds fall out of my ears constantly. I have tried using other sizes of the ear piece but it still falls out. I want my money back, but I can't because I opened it already. I tried calling the customer service and they can't do anything about it too because I bought it from somewhere else.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from LOVE THESE NEW JBL FREE X Fantastic earbuds. Superior sound and excellent fit, thanks to the new extra size options. These are very light weight, fit tightly in my ears and do not fall out. They are the most comfortable earbuds and don't hurt my ears to sleep in, while listening to my ambient music.The sound quality is FANTASTIC, high quality stereo sound with surround sounds as if coming from every direction. The volume can turn up very loud too, for the times I want to really jam out. The buttons are easy to press and navigate. Over all I'm very impressed. These are my favs. Thanks JBL for such an awesome product. And at a great price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Please make replacement cases available. Similar to Sbet92 I only came here to try to source a new rechargeable case, since my toddler destroyed mine. Surprised how low a rating these have, by far the best headphones I have owned and I have been through many. Seems they do not fit people with a particularly small ear, as my wife doesn't like them. I predominantly wear these for running and cycling, they have stood up to 18months of fairly constant abuse and getting soaked. By far the most comfortable headphones I have had for running. They also do a decent job of noise cancellation but still allow you to hear enough for safety. JBL please make replacement cases available!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from What I've come to expect I just got mine, and so far like all my other JBL products they don't disappoint. The sound is great, and they fit good in my ear. I've had problems with earbuds fitting in my ear in the past, but these work fine. I like how when you take them out of the charging case they are ready to pair. The button functions is a feature I don't see anyone talk about in the reviews, so I'm going to talk about them. I think button features are important, because part of the reason you get wireless headphones is to have your hands free and that should include not having to hold the phone. With that being said the button features are great they're easier than the button features on my E 45 BT headphones. Overall these are great.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super light, super sound! My favorite pair of headphones to date are the JBL Reflect Mini2, and the only way they could get any better in my humble opinion is if the wire connecting the left and right earpieces were not there. Well, here you go! These Free "truly wireless" headphones are great! I had to try a few combinations of the gel sleeves and ear tips to find the right fit for me, but once you've got it they feel great. The only problem, if you could call it that, is that they're so light that I keep having to check to see if they'd fallen out. Once you get used to that, you are left to enjoy wonderful JBL sound with no wires to tie you down. They pair immediately to my iPhone XS Max, and have never yet dropped the connection. The charging case is well constructed, and a nice size. Although, given their incredible battery life, it seems that you'll use it just to keep them safe more than to actually charge them. If you love JBL sound quality, and want truly wireless earbuds, these are for you!

Product Q&A

Do the blue light rings stay lit when being used? I don't want light coming from my ears.

Asked by: Imix4u
Mine will light up blue and blink a few times, but once they're connected to my phone for about a minute, the lights turn off. It'd be really inefficient to have the lights on the whole time they're being used. The battery would drain much faster, which they obviously don't want since battery life is a huge competitive marketing battle between companies.

I'm interested in buying a pair of these, but am being influenced by the reviews to stay away. Is there any corporate message about the quality and reliability of this product, and if/how any of the issues have been addressed?

Asked by: DanW
I brought them, even though I was told, to not buy it, giving JBL the benefit of the doubt. Connectivity was a big issue, earphones are prone to fall out, I was constantly worried about them falling out of my ears into a glass of water or on the bus. Connectivity was a major problem, right side would work but when the left side was taken out, left side didnt pair automatically. Microphone was also another problem, WHY WOULD JBL HAVE A MONODESIGN?! The sound was good but overall, but for $200, NOT RECOMMENDED

I'm expecting loss of soud while listening music through JBLFree X, or "lost of package" in sound. How to solve this problem, since I have disconnected bluetooth and connected again, without solving the problem?

I've heard something about the JBL free X's not being in sync while for example watching a YouTube video. Is it true, and if it is, can it be "fixed"?

Asked by: Emil Rex
The JBL Free and most of our Bluetooth portable products are not necessarily designed to be used as a speaker for video. If the device has the option of a wired connection, we recommend using this as an alternative. In this case, the Free X doesn't have a wired connection. What you are experiencing is a limitation of Bluetooth. When you start the video and audio at the same time, the audio will lag behind by the length of time it takes the Bluetooth hardware to receive, process and output it which is known as Latency. You won’t notice this lag if you’re listening to music, but if you’re watching a video the sound may be marginally out of sync or sometimes when it cannot process the audio format, it would completely stop. Latency varies depending on the hardware and software setups you have.

I have small ears and have had trouble finding a pair of ear buds that stay put when I run. Even the smallest silicon pieces on other pairs havent worked out for me. Could this be a good option for small ears?

Asked by: Mandii777
For small ears there's really no good options for TWS earbuds in general. They're all for people with medium to bigger ears. Traditional BT earbuds would be. Better for someone with small ears.

After months of use, the right ear started producing no sound. The earbuds still connect to the phone, and I can get sound out of the left earbud, but nothing comes out of the right ear, what should I do?
