Epic Air ANC True Wireless Earbuds

I have WAY too many Bluetooth headphones. I have a pair of Jabra Elite Sports that I have never used, and when I took them out, the left one doesnt’ work. Turns out, it’s a super common thing and there’s nothing I can do b/c I’m way past the warranty period. So I was looking for sweat proof headphones for running and cycling with GOOD sound quality that weren’t $200 AND have hear through so I can hear traffic. Enter the JLAB EPIC AIR ANC. The hear through works GREAT. I can hear traffic and other people just fine. The sound quality is soooo good! You can even customize your own EQ. The sound rivals my Bose sport headphones for half the price (which I why I don’t work out with the Bose… if they’re not REALLY sweat proof I don’t want to be replacing ANOTHER $200 pair if headphones). They’d be a GREAT deal at their $100 price but they always seem to be on sale. I’m probably going to buy a back up pair next time I see them on a great deal price b/c my luck is when I need to replace them, they’re out of production.

I got these headphones for my hubby's Galaxy Note 8. I only bought these because I had a different (older) set of JLab earbuds and had a pretty good experience with my last JLab product. Hubby saw them and when his custom headphones gave up the ghost after many years of service, he hinted at these being a birthday present option *lol*. So imagine my shock and disappointment with these dead as a doorknob earbuds.Like several complaints here have said, I was unable to get these headphones into pairing mode. To be clear, this is NOT an issue with his phone. I also couldn't get these headphones to pair with ANY of our phones. (my personal and work cell, and hubby's work cell) FOUR DIFFERENT PHONE MODELS! So, I am confident the issue ISN'T with the devices, but these goofy headphones. I followed the directions on box. I took to Google to research similar problems. I watched COUNTLESS videos online all to no avail.In other words what we got is a dead USELESS product. Unfortunately, I missed the return window with Amazon so now I we are stuck with headphones that are as useless as t!ts on a bull! I reached out to the seller (Woot) and unfortunately, they can only offer a refund if we ship these DOA headphones back at our cost! (grrrrrr) It will cost $20-30 to mail these junk headphones back to get our $80 back. No thanks. I don't see myself buying another set of JLab earbuds to replace these, and if I'm being really honest, I'm not too keen on Woot either right now! *lol*I am BEYOND over it! SMH..UPDATE:I reached out to JLab after writing this review to see if they would honor a warranty claim on these earbuds. I mean why not? They should be WELL within the warraty period right?? Guess again BUCKOS!Even after providing JLab the proof of purchase (as they requested) that I bought these from Woot via Amazon, JLab told me that they couldn't "confirm" that I had purchased the earbuds. They provided no other options for me. So I informed them that these earbuds will be headed for a landfill where they most assuredly belong!Don't waste your time and money on these. I purchased the "Soundcore by Anker Liberty 4 NC Wireless Earbuds" on Amazon directly from Soundcore's Amazon shop (no more Woot for me). These earbuds paired IMMEDIATLY without the need for YouTube videos on the innerwebs to troubleshoot pairing issue and they sound AMAZING. I immediately replaced mine and my niece's older JLab earbuds.Bye bye JLab (and Woot)!

I wanted to purchase some earbuds that under $100 and after research I decided on this pair. Primarily is its ability to provide most control functions on the earbuds. Each earbud is synced to my phone and when I take one off, what I am listening to stops. The sound was amazingly good, and JLAB has a mobile app to adjust the EQs, noise cancellation level, tap controls, and firmware updates. The app works really well. It is light and the carrying case is compact with a charging cable attached. It can be wirelessly charged too. Due to the shape of my right ear canal, I had to buy a 3rd party ear-tips - SpinFit, to help my right earbud in staying securely in my ear. The earbuds block out sound quite well that I find that I don't need the noise cancellation on most of the time. However, the noise cancellation is very good. The connecting distance to my phone is as it was advertised, around 35-40 feet, very good. I have noticed that there are sudden drop in connections once in a while. The tap controls sometimes would not respond well, I hope JLAB will put out a new firmware to take care of this. I would recommend these airbuds to anyone.
