Good headphones/earbuds for sports use – Aug 2023 Update
I was looking for a set of headphones to replace another set I did not like and didn’t last long. I exercise 1.5 hrs./day 6 days a week. Therefore I needed something to stay in the ear, and could handle moisture (98 deg F at 90+ humidity – i.e. sweating profusely in the summer). I also needed something that that had “hear through” so I can hear sounds while doing road-work, such as automobiles.I selected these because they had an over-the-ear hook to keep them in place. They had some waterproofing, hear-through, and other control options. While I like having the noise cancelling, I don’t use it as much since I let in ambient noise while working out.I’ve had these for over 6 mos. and I’ve put over 290 hours of use into them. They have had good battery life. They have held up to daily use without issue. I have been VERY pleased with them for what I need. I found them comfortable, and when I’m sweating, the ear hooks keep them in my ear. Of course, when I’m doing other exercises where I change position, the ear plugs can slip out due to moisture, they stay “in the ear” and don’t fall off. The volume can be set quite loud, and I never need to put them to full volume.Things I have noticed. Sometimes one bud disconnects from the phone, but I’ve discovered this happens when I’m near another device openly broadcasting a Bluetooth connection. It only lasts about 10 sec or less, or I can remove the bud and reinsert and it is good to go. The bud pair sense their proximity and stop playing when they are a certain distance apart. This is actually a good quality as I use it when someone talks to me, I can remove one, and hear them without music blaring. I take care to wipe them down before putting them in the case to avoid buildup that may impair the charging capability. You have to make sure you set them in the charging case well, or it may not charge. However, I’ve only had this issue once or twice once I realized this and made sure they had good contact. The buds have white/blue light when charging.Overall, I’m really pleased with the JLab Epic Air Sport ANC headphones. I would order these again.Update – Aug 2023My original review was from Oct 2022. I currently have been using these for over 16 months, 6+ days a week usually at least 2-3 hours a day. They still perform well. Battery life is still good, and I have experienced no issues. Rain, below freezing, 90+ degree temps, high humidity…they still work.Note, all reviews are subjective. I use these specially and primarily for music audio while working in a wide range of temperatures.I do not recommend these for phone audio or conference calls. Every time I have used these for phone calls, the person on the receiving end has difficulting hearing me (soft voice), and additionally too much background noise. I just don’t use them for phone calls, and I have another brand of earbuds I use during the day when I need to make phone calls.

La duración de la bateria interna es genial, y con la carga del estuche no hay manera que te quedes sin escuchar musica. Los recomiendo. Llegaron a tiempo y muy bien empacados. 10 de 10

Ich habe die JLab Epic Air Sport ANC Kopfhörer und bin absolut begeistert! Die Geräuschunterdrückung ist fantastisch und sorgt dafür, dass ich mich beim Training voll und ganz auf meine Musik konzentrieren kann. Der Tragekomfort ist super, selbst bei längerem Tragen merkt man sie kaum. Besonders toll finde ich, dass sie wasserdicht sind – ideal für Sport und Regen. Die Akkulaufzeit ist ebenfalls beeindruckend. Eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die beim Sport oder unterwegs auf hochwertige Kopfhörer setzen wollen!
