As a family of 5 music lovers we are constantly trying out new ways to listen to our favorite tunes, and with 3 of those music lovers in their teens, we are also constantly replacing lost or broken earbuds. Now that is a problem, as a decent pair of true wireless earbuds are not exactly cheap. I always wondered if there was a brand out there that didn't cost a fortune but delivered a reasonable level of sound quality. Well it turns out there is such a company; JLab Audio is the #1 manufacturer of True Wireless Headphones for under $100. Best Buy recently sent us three pairs of JBuds Air True Wireless Earbuds to test and try, with each set customized to meet the specific needs of different lifestyles. We received the new sport-inspired JBuds Air Sport, the business-inspired JBuds Air Executive, and the JBuds Air Icon, an upgraded everyday option. Let's take a look at the various options.
Made for an active lifestyle, the Jbuds Air Sport earbuds feature a long playtime and upgraded sweat resistance. The earbuds hold enough charge to go 6 hours, and the case holds another 34 hours of charge time. An IP66 rating means dirt and sweat stay out of the earbuds, so there is no worry while using the Jbuds Air Sport earbuds at the gym. The buds automatically turn themselves on and connect to your device when you remove them from the case.
Another feature of note is the Be Aware Audio function. This allows you to hear your surroundings while say running. When you turn this feature on, the earbuds blend the outside ambient sounds in with your music. Control of the earbuds is accomplished with touch. With the tap of a finger you can change songs, adjust volume, or take a call. These buds are currently (as of this writing) selling for $69.99 over at Best Buy, so they represent a very nice value for the features offered.
The Jbuds Air Executive earbuds are designed for the business world. As a result, the case is smaller and more discreet than the other offerings, and the design of the buds themselves a bit more reserved. They share some of the features of the Sport model, such as the auto on and connect feature and custom eq settings. These buds also boast a 6 hour battery life, but the small case of the Jbuds Air Executive holds a little less reserve charge (24 hrs). An IP rating of IP55 means the Air Executive Series offer a reasonable level of dust and moisture protection.
C3 Calling is one of the features that is unique to the Air Executive Series. This feature adds upgraded dual microphones to the buds, which allows for stereo audio and the elimination of surrounding noise while on a call.
The Jbuds Air True Wireless Earbuds Icon Series are the cheapest option of the three earbud lines. Currently selling for less than $60 over at Best Buy, these buds offer a ton of value for the money. An IP55 rating means the Air Icon Series offers protection from dust and water. This is a nice thing to see, as there are some very expensive options out there that do not offer this. Playtime for the Air Icon series is 6 hours, and the case holds an additional 18 hours of charge. You also get stereo calling, Auto connect, and custom eq setting. Additionally, the Air Icon earbuds are dual connect. In other words, these buds are independent of one another. Use just the left, right, or both buds; it doesn't matter. They connect independently to your device, so you will never miss a connection.

Yes, but….
These (and other newer models) have the ability to mix the ambient sounds around you into the music, so you are always aware of what is happening.
I need a set of these! I have a pair of earbuds that’s on their last leg. They were never very good to begin with, so I’m excited to get a good pair that still won’t break the bank.
these looks really cool. i think i already have something to wish for the upcoming holiday season. haha! <3

Would you say it’s the best earphones for jogging? I have my own pair of wireless earphones but they get loose in my ear when I jog.
The Air Sport would be best for running. They have the best water resistance of the three, and the wing design keeps them in place.
I want to try the Jbuds Air True Wireless Earbuds. Sounds like it is very user-friendly. Nice pick!
These are Awesome and need a pair for runs so I can listen to my podcasts. They would be a great Christmas gift too!
These look like a great pair of headphones. I love the case, it looks super stylish, too.
I need a pair of earbuds and was looking into a wireless pair! These look perfect for me!
I’ve read about this brand and would love to get these earbuds. They are very affordable and seem great.
It’s really amazing how this technology has changed over the years. The various options are mind blowing! I do have concerns about wearing wireless things at all due to radio waves, though ; )
I like the concept of these buds. Looks like they stay in your ears better.
the air icon series Jbuds are are ! stylish functional and practical as well as being aff0rdable
This wireless earphones are so cool and very stylish, I love it and such a perfect gift to give to my husband on his birthday.
My daugther want wireless headphones so bad for Christmas. These might be the ones we get her! They look great!
I’ve been needing a good pair of wireless buds for a while now. So glad for this recommendation because I’ve been lost and didn’t want to waste money.
I love the in ear headphones, but by my mom would definitely prefer the over ear ones especially for working out! I might have to both types, one for both of us!
I’ve been wanting to get wireless earbuds for a long time now! Maybe this Christmas I’ll treat myself and get a pair. Thanks for sharing!
This will make the perfect Christmas gift for a couple of people on our list!
I need these for the gym. I hate the cord on my headphones.
These earbuds are so perfect for everyday activity! Love them so much!
Hubby has been asking for a new set of earbuds. I know what’s going on my shopping list. Now I just have to decide which ones.
This brand sounds great..! I will check this out once I got to have a new pair of earbuds.
I love listening to music when I am on the train but sometimes struggle to manage my earphones as the wires get tangled. This wireless earbuds seem perfect for me
This looks pretty cool. Would be convenient for athletes and those who prefers outdoor activities. This is certainly worthwhile.
This would be an awesome gift for my son!
Listening to music when I am jogging can be a struggle a times. These seem like the right ones for me!
Thanks for the overview of the different JBUDs. I’ve been curious about them and didn’t even realize how many aspects one needs to consider – like dirt resistance or if the case holds a charge. Great to know.
I think wireless buds are the way forward. I have literally just got some and they are much better than having a wire x
There are so many ear buds on the market! I am swimming in choices! I’ve tried many. Could be a nice gift for someone who loves music on-the-go.
Thanks for sharing this info. I was just looking for wireless earbuds. I need to get me one asap.
I need to get these! Wireless is so much easier with kids around.
These look fabulous. I love that they hook around your ear so you cannot lose them
These sound amazing. I have to check these out, I’m in need of new headphones.
