Simple but premium earbuds
on January 24, 2026
Posted by: VickyD
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was in search of a no frills, reliable, comfortable pair of earbuds that could connect to my phone without extra adapters, etc. These USB-C earbuds check all the boxes and more. The sound is what you’d expect from JBL, nice bass and crisp call quality on video or voice calls. I’ve been told my sound quality is excellent too from the inline mic. They are very light and durable, they can be (and have been) thrown around in my work and gym bag with no issues, seem to be made high quality plastic and rubber.
I love them for air travel, they will never run out of battery and they actually lay flat in my ears, I can use my neck pillow without them getting knocked out.
They can be worn traditionally, or to take advantage of the loop around the ear feature, you just swap sides and wear them upside down. Then loop the cord around the top of your ear. They stay in remarkably well.
A nifty feature is the back of the earbuds magnetically attach together so you can hang them around your neck when not in use. Not a deal breaker feature, but it’s a thoughtful touch.
The earbuds come packaged in paper (100% recyclable!) and a set of smaller and larger ear tips are included to get the perfect fit.

Surprising performance with a simple design
on January 28, 2026
Posted by: ShaneM
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Simple and go above expectations in performance. Love the design and comfort with fit. Sound is excellent with crisp highs and deeper than expected bass level. Controls are straight forward and easy to use. Love the overall comfort. Can listen to audio for hours with no issues. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a simple plug and play option.

Comfortable and high quality sound in a simple pac
on January 29, 2026
Posted by: chases48_5542
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are the best in ear earbuds that I have used in a really long time. Super impressive sound quality and it really brings me back to a simpler time. There’s no need to worry about battery life and connectivity issues. Just plug and play. These will be my primary commuter earbuds from now on. Yet another impressive product from JBL!

Awesome earbuds with great quality audio
on February 4, 2026
Posted by: HamiltonJ
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Endurance Run 3c Wired is very light; the cable is thick but flexible and long enough to be used without problems while jogging or at the gym doing exercises, and it gives you the impression that it was built with good components.
I love that now the earpieces have magnets that attract each other, leading to better cable management and less tangling when they are not in use. The earbuds fit just right into my ears; they are very comfortable, and they come with extra pads too. They stay in the ear while moving around. One thing I would have loved is if the earbuds had indicators of which one is right and left because despite these fitting just fine either way, they are more comfortable when used the correct way.
As always with JBL products, the audio quality is superb. The voices and the sound are very clear, with no distortion, crisp highs, and deep bass.
There aren’t many features and choices when it comes to audio features, but you do get in-line volume control and the pause button right in the little console that hangs at the chin level along the right ear's cable. The remote abilities are limited—you can play or pause music, answer or end calls, or skip tracks forward or backward. I like that you really have to make an effort to press the buttons on the console to do anything, like pressing volume up or pausing; it prevents unintentional clicks while moving around.
The microphone quality is also excellent; when talking on the phone in a noisy environment, I don't have to talk loud so the people on the other line can hear me clearly. After recording myself and listening back, I was very impressed; I can hear myself very well even if I didn't speak loudly. I guess it helps that the mic is right there next to my mouth.
I also noticed it has less background noise than the wireless options I have; there is no way to turn it off, it is like having active noise cancellation at all times, but it works great.

Great fit
on February 12, 2026
Posted by: miguelc132_2126
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fit great. They don’t fall out of my ears and they sound great. I use Apple Music and these headphones work well with lossless audio. The cable is nice and sturdy. Does not get tangled.

Good gym headphones
on February 17, 2026
Posted by: JosephH
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These headphones get the job done. If you are looking for a decent set of headphones to keep in your gym bag these fit the bill. The ear buds are magnetized which is an added bonus that helps keep them from turning into spaghetti when not it use. The medium rubber ear cones fit me out of the box, but there are additional options included to fit your ears. I used these for a few workouts which included cardio and resistance training and I didn’t have an issue with them staying in my ears.

Reliable, Comfortable, and Great-Sound
on February 18, 2026
Posted by: JuanG
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the JBL Endurance Run 3C for everyday listening and at the office and I've been genuinelyimpressed. The 8mm driver delivers the bold JBL signature sound with punchy bass and crispy highs.
The standout feature for me is the Fliphook and Twistlock designs. You can wear these ear buds either in ear or behind the ear and nit have to worry about them falling off during a run or workout. They stay secure and comfortable the entire time.
With phones no longer having a headset jack the USB-C connection is a welcomed upgrade for modern devices. While they are wired headphones the earbuds are magnetic and help avoid tangling when stored away.
