These wireless sports headphones sound great and are effectively waterproof. They create a rock solid strong and stable Bluetooth connection.
--DESIGN AND USE--
To get the best sound and fit, it is important to first choose the ear tips and ear fins that fit your ear size best. The ear tips should totally cover your ear canal. Included are round and oval silicone ear tips in sizes small and medium. The ear fins come in 4 different sizes. Once I got a good fit it was very easy to forget that I was wearing them. They also never felt as if they were going to fall out of my ears.
The hard case and headphones are functionally an integrated system. The case stores and protects them while doubling as an external battery. Simply insert them into the case to charge them. To charge the case use the included micro USB cable. This very clever design safeguards the headphones from loss or damage by requiring that they be kept in the case to be charged. The headphones fit perfectly into the case, and a charging indicator lights on the case displays the battery level.
I really like that these headphones automatically turn on when removed from the case. When I remove the right one from the case, it turns on automatically and pairs to my phone. Then I remove the left one and it automatically turn on and pairs to the right one. This is preferable to having to power each one individually. They also automatically turn off when returned to the case.
The right headphone is the primary and the left headphone cannot be used independently of the right one. So, if you intend to use only one, it must always be the right one.Also the left one must be within a few inches of the right one to work.
It took about two hours to fully charge the case and headphones. After being fully charged the headphones are rated to last 4 hours. The case is rated to charge them another 2 times, for a total of about 12 hours of rated use. After several charge cycles I found the rated times to be accurate, and actually got a little longer that 4 hours of use at moderate volume levels.
A 5 minute charge can provide one hour of playtime.
The multi-function control buttons worked well once I got used to it. The right and left headphones each have a button. The buttons can play/pause, skip forward, answer/end calls, decline calls, and activate Siri or Google Assistant.
The headphones are very lightweight and because of the silicone ear tips very comfortable to wear. It is very easy to forget that you are wearing them.
The headphones and case look and feel very well constructed. They are very attractive and prominently display the Jaybird symbol.
The IPX7 rating makes them waterproof. While I fully intend to not submerge them in water, it is nice that if they did go in the drink that they will not be ruined.
--SOUND QUALITY--
For me the most important thing about headphones is that they sound good. These headphones deliver hard hitting premium sound quality.The sound is detailed, accurate, and full range. They also put out an impressive amount of volume and bass for their size. If this is your first pair of high end headphones you are going to be blown away at how good they sound.
The Jaybird App has several different EQ presets available to help customize the sound. There is also a customizable EQ, so that you can adjust the sound to your individual preference and to accommodate various content. This is critical because content can be mixed at such different levels that adjusting the EQ can help greatly with performance.
When on a call they default to mono sound, which is preferable so there is not an annoying echo. The call quality is typical for compact headphones.
--BOTTOM LINE--
I give the Jaybird RUN XT headphones excellent marks for design, sound quality, and comfort. They are perfect for taking on outside adventures.The strong and stable Bluetooth connection and waterproof design makes these the best active lifestyle wireless headphones on the market.

The sound quality is incredible and with the app makes it even better. Having the different fittings helps a lot so they fit my ear. The only complaint is when I sweat while I am running they work their way out of my ears. The longest I have been able to wear them running is 30 minutes before they start to fall out of my ear and I have a half marathon coming up. This is a problem I experience with most earbuds. But, everything else about them is great!

Jaybird always puts out top quality headphones and these are no different. The sound in them is great with great bass clarity with the treble built in. The only downside is that they are like many other earphones typically in the current market. Meaning, those who have small ears and canals will struggle to find a tight fit and one that securely stays in one's ear. This though is not a knock on the earphones, but a warning to anyone with small ears.

The buds is really amazing to hear. But oh boy, i just could not deal anymore with the frequent drop of connection. It would just drop by itself and would simply not want to connect. They just completely disappear from view and after multiple restarts of the bud only they would appear in the phone as available to connect.

These headphones stay in place when running and are great to workout! The really do charge fast. The only negative comments are that in order to skip song you have to really push earplug into your ear and when incoming calls happen, only the right ear device works. Sometimes there is disconnecting issues so you have to place them in box and connect them again. Overall, they are good, stay put headphones for working out.

Sound quality and the app are great. Portability with these is less than ideal, with an enormous carrying case and just okay battery life. The buttons for changing features also dig into your ear canal, which can be painful after. Skipping a few tracks in quicksuccession.

Last Jaybird Purchase

I've had several pairs of Jaybirds over the years, from X2's, X3's, to Tarah's. I recently got these as a gift and was very excited until actually putting them to use.
Four hour battery life is nothing to get excited about in the first place but I get an absolute max of 3 hours tops. Disappointing as I wear them during work and like most people I work longer than 3 hours a day.
Even more disappointing, as others have stated, is that the audio on phone calls only comes through in the right ear bud. This was a bizarre design choice in my opinion, as I can't come up with any potential benefit that would cause other than saving a few bucks for the manufacturer.
I have a close friend who works for Jaybird. He's openly told me the quality of their products has decreased significantly since being bought out by Logitech in 2016. He's also said the X2's were by far the best headphones they came out with and if you feel you absolutely must buy a Jaybird product, to find the X2's on Ebay and go that route as they're no longer in production.
I'm returning mine today towards the Beats Pro True Wireless and will not purchase a Jaybird product again in the future.
For real, do not buy these. For the price there are so many better options.

I use the jaybird earbuds mostly for the gym and outdoor activities. It does cancel noise so if you are a runner that needs that ambient noies for safety you would have lower the volume or leave one out. I do love the small charging case that is round very friendly for the pocket but still bulky. One thing I dont like it is the interface and that ear bud buttons options controls

Brought them home, the sound is killer. The JayBird App allows you to mess with the sound presets. Great base. The only downside of these is if you are in a group setting, like the gym, with other bluetooth devices around, then you will notice that the buds start to cut out. Either both at the same time or one at a time. They work great on runs and around town. Like I said, great sound quality but terrible coding for staying connected while in close proximity to other bluetooth devices.

In ear fit and sound quality are great. The jaybird app lets you really customize your preferences. The connection on the left bud has gone out a couple times, but simply putting the buds back in the charging case and then removing them has fixed the issue each time.

Got these when they were only $50. I'd rather have some that hook around the ear, but these will be fine until there's a good deal on some like that. The right one isn't as comfortable as the left, which I'd chalk up to my right ear. But generally, these are good for these times when having to do a lot more running outside.
