Horrible volume control

They removed the swipe up and down to control volume function in this newest version for some reason. If you want to be able to control volume you have to download the app and then switch one of the headphones to one tap for volume increase and two taps to decrease. There is no way to quickly change volume on these and the tap is in poor spots that make it difficult to use when running. One use and I will be returning these. Horrible decision to remove volume control.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Endurance Peak3 wireless earphones really live up to the comfort and sound that they are famous for. With the Powerhook feature and Twistlock combination, they fit comfortably and stay put in my ears with no fear of them falling out. They are definitely the most comfortable earphones I have ever owned. I have no problem wearing them on an extended off road. bicycle ride even when it gets wet. There are too many features to list here so I will tell you about my favorites. I love the way they both connect to each other and my source automatically. I can also connect either one by itself so I can wear just one. They connect very quickly to my Bluetooth source and stay connected until I turn them off. The JBL Headphone app, that can be downloaded to your phone, gives me more control of my earphones than ever before. The app allows me to control the Ambient Aware feature, it has an equalizer, and I can set up Voice Assistant to control the earphones with my voice, just to name a few of the app features. I can also control all the basic functions by pressing the buttons on either earphone, as well. Not only great JBL sound but crystal clear phone calls along with many extra features are what you get with these very comfortable Endurance Peak3 wireless earphones. I highly recommend these earphones to anyone looking for great sounding comfortable wireless earphones that are packed with extra features you just can't get anywhere else.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an owner of Peak 2's I was excited to see the Peak 3 come out!
These buds have small, but also significant upgrades. The touch response on the buds themselves have definitely improved. Sound quality is a bit better than before, but was never bad to start.
I feel like using these with the app is the best way to go. You can make so many adjustments and changes you would shorting yourself otherwise.
They come with the usual three sizes of ear inserts and a charging cable, but its very short.
The only thing that almost made me go down to four stars is the case.
The Peak 2 had an actual lock button to open it. This one has no lock button, but also nowhere to grip the clamshell to open it. While a slight inconvenience, its still something that I dislike.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are the best earphones I've used so far. For context, I've used behind-the-ear ones, and also simple, not-sport-oriented earphones. These ones hold just as good as the other behind-the-ear ones, and sound just as good as normal earphones.
The choice of how the earphones hold in your ears during running is a matter of preference, but for me, normal earphones usually slip out, both due to sweat, and the vigorous movement. The behind-the-ear construction stays on much better.
In addition, the Endurance Peak 3s have very decent sound. It has convincing bass, clear highs, and overall pleasant to listen to most music. I only tried them with energetic pop/electronic music, audiobooks, and some chillstep/future garage, but they sound very well with all of these sound genres.
The buttons on the sides are not towards the bottom of the outer surfaces, but more right behind the logos, which took getting used to for me. The buttons are capacitive, and work well.
One nifty feature is that the earphones turn off when the hooks' ends touch the rest of the earphones, closing the loops. This is very convenient if your earphones disconnect or glitch in the middle of the run, making the power cycle very quick, and you get back to listening to music right away.
They're waterproof IP68, so it's very easy to wash/rinse them after a workout.
They also have the voice aware feature, which is great in theory, but for me is more of a gimmick, as it's just faster and easier to pull one earphone out than pressing the button and waiting for the mode to engage.
Overall, strongly recommend for runners or those who otherwise have rigorous workouts that warrant behind-the-ear build.
great for music when active. not awesome for calls

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These headphones are comfortable, even after wearing them for a while! They don't come off during activities like exercise. They have excellent sound as expected. the only thing I don't like is when making phone calls, they are quite quiet. The microphones work excellent though.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quality set of wireless earphones. Great for working out or running since they have the ear wrap piece. Charging case is a huge plus giving you an extra 40 hours of listening time and works great as a storage container. Love that they automatically turn off once you take them out and the talk through and ambient aware features are must haves. Sound quality is excellent and having the ability to customize through the JBL app is just cherry on top. Definitely a great set of earphones, would recommend.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started using the Endurance Peak 3 headphones for work outs & physical therapy. They fir so snug in my ears. Zero fear about 1 or both falling out of my ears! While using for music listening, I received a phone call & they are wonderful! I prefer to use these headphones for phone calls instead of holding phone to my ear! Sound quality is nice & once my call was over, I resumed my music listening without any issues. Super easy to switch modes.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Endurance Peak 3 are great! They fit great when I run or do a HIIT workout. The JBL Pure Bass has super sound. Almost 50 hours of playback is almost too much time. The Powerhook really keeps them in place during any activity.
