The Jbuds J3 Earphones are truly a great piece of work. The sound quality is true step up from my previous earphones, and I can hear things in songs that I’ve never heard before. And for the price, you really have no reason not to get these. They also come with a nifty little case, which is pretty cool by itself. You owe it to yourself if you love music to buy these.

I was very anxious to like these earbuds since I like to support smaller companies and these buds had received good reviews on Amazon. I have a pair of Etymoytic ER-6Is that I have had for the past 2 years and that have been excellent. I bought these because I wanted a pair of budget earphones with good quality that I could have on hand as a spare.

The earbuds themselves are quite sexy, and they fortunately have varying sizes of the covers because my ear canal is pretty small. Unfortunately, right out of the box, one side of the earbuds did not work. I am unsure which since JLabs does not label them. I realised this when I took them out to warm them up so I could start using them. I’m quite disappointed with this lack of quality control. I’m unsure whether I will purchase another pair from JLabs because of this.

These earbuds have no low-end response. They sound tinny and out-of balance. I knew right away that I'd be returning them.

I was looking forward to get these but there is no Base and there is way to much treble. I have some cheap panasonic ear buds that sound way better. Maybe I need the bose ones

Ordered this product (J3) thinking that I was getting the J3M as links for BOTH products went back to the same product purchase page. Really wanted the Microphone version. Contacted JLabs to confirm actually 2 different products. Seems that Amazon had incorrectly linked various of their products & this is one that still hasn’t been corrected.

VERY misleading!!

Would have settled on purchasing the correct product direct from JLabs so that I could get it in the mail B4 the weekend, as I am leaving on a 2 week trip. However, because of their agreement w/ Amazon, they couldn’t do that & not enough time to deal w/ Amazon. Was hoping for a little better from this company because of their reputation, especially since I was willing to PAY for it, but I guess the Big A has these contracts for a reason!

Product sounds good, but I haven’t had time to really use it yet!! Will try 24 hour burnin. Build quality & case seem to be high.
