My ideal headphones
on February 19, 2024

I bought these back in 2021 and I've just starting experiencing some audio distortion today. This could be from age or from handling as I'm not exactly delicate with my things. Nevertheless, I am buying TWO PAIRS right this second as I consider these my ideal headphones: lightweight, easy on the ears, and low maintenance. These have last me most of my 8 hour workdays for the last 2 years, I just charge them on my way home, for about 20 minutes. I will ALWAYS buy these headphones. Please keep making them and in several colors. Thank you.
i love these so much, they're so fun, i bought them for the novelty of fully bluetooth headphones in a retro style but the sound quality is actually good and i find myself reaching for them over my usual earbuds for my casual listening
They just aren't as loud as they once were. The lady who tells you they are on, it's the same recording, but immediately you can tell it is softer, like she's speaking from the next room instead of in your ear. I don't know what happened, but I'm not the only person to have this experience so I think maybe there is an issue at the factory. Which is too bad because these are my favorite headphones and I'd probably keep buying them again and again if I thought they would be the same as the first pair I had. On the other hand, I suppose the only reason I had the first pair for as long as I did was because when they broke (the charging port is not in a place that rewards careless handling) my husband fixed them. On the other other hand, I would not have asked him to fix them had I not really liked them.
Also, is it possible the foam covers are new and therefore thicker and that's the issue? I have no idea. Anyway, the fact of the matter is, they are great for when you are walking down the sidewalk and you still want to hear what's going on around you so you don't get flattened by cars. Also, they are lightweight and comfortable. I have never gotten a headache from pressure points from them despite wearing them for hours at a time, and I can't say that for every pair of headphones I've had. I also appreciate the second pair of foam thingies. Do be aware that the ear-spray is no joke and may be the source of all the quizzical looks I've received from other people in the library over the years. And also, you may think you're being sneaky, reaching up to push the pause button on the bus to eavesdrop, but it's possible that you are not.
Look, I just like these headphones, okay? I would appreciate it if JLab kept them in their rotation in perpetuity by putting real quality control on the job. I wouldn't even get mad if they redesigned the charging port. I would adapt. I'd be grumpy if I had to change my cable, but I'm grumpy anyway so that would be fine. Okay, good headphones, thank you, good-bye.
I received a warranty credit from my jlab pro anc studio's battery failing within a year, and with the credit this was one of my purchases. I think these fit, sound, and look amazing. I love a retro vibe, and having BT tech in something so old-school looking is really fun. Let's see how long the batteries last
Real sweet retro vibes, new school sound and funct

These are comfy. I really like the feel and sound for a real reasonable price. They stay on really well too even if you're doing moderate amounts of movement like bowling or doing yoga
