The FlipHook design makes these wired earbuds feel
on January 19, 2026
Posted by: TRACYJ
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unboxing my new JBL Endurance Run 3 wired sport headphones was simple, and everything was neatly packaged, including the earbuds and multiple ear gel sizes for a more comfortable fit.
I tested these for both phone calls and everyday use, and the in-line microphone and control button made it easy to answer calls and control audio without touching my phone. However, the buttons are fairly small, which may be a little difficult for someone with bigger fingers.
These wired earbuds can be worn two different ways using the FlipHook design, which makes them feel even more secure while I’m moving around. They are great for walking on my lunch break or working out.
I definitely appreciate that these earbuds are dustproof (especially for when I just toss them into the bottom of my bag) and water resistant for times I might get caught in the rain or forget I’m wearing them when I splash water on my face to cool down. Another feature I really like is the magnets that hold the earbuds together when I’m not wearing them, which helps keep them from getting tangled.
Overall, these are a solid wired option for anyone who wants reliable earbuds without having to worry about charging them.

Quality sound workout
on January 18, 2026
Posted by: VincenteA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great quality sound and a very good snug fit into the earlobes, it came with a extra set of caps and are easy to clean, the cord has a nice reach so I was able to ride my bike with out worry about the plug coming out my phone and I really enjoyed the clear sound and great bass playing into my ears. I love the fit design of these earbuds, and the quality is really good. The button lets me press play or pause, which was a great feature for me i didn't hear no outside noises or anything.

Great Sound and Fit, but Limited to 3.5 mm
on January 17, 2026
Posted by: SadhanaA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the 3.5 mm jack version of the JBL Endurance Run 3 for workouts and daily listening, and overall it’s a solid wired sports earphone. The fit is secure and comfortable, even during running, thanks to the FlipHook and TwistLock design. Sound quality is good for the price, with punchy bass and clear vocals that keep workouts motivating. The build also feels durable and handles sweat well.
Pros:
Comfortable and secure fit for workouts
Good sound quality with strong bass
Lightweight and durable (sweat-resistant)
Reliable 3.5 mm connection with no latency
Inline mic and controls work well
Cons:
No USB-C support included
Would’ve been better if JBL added a 3.5 mm to USB-C adapter
Not ideal if you use multiple devices with different ports
Overall, it’s a great wired sports earphone, but including a USB-C adapter would have saved the need to buy another pair for newer devices.

Comfortable and easy to use
on January 16, 2026
Posted by: abelardoL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i use these with my iPhone 13 pro max and a lightning adapter and the sound is really good. I am a big fan of bass and unfortunately these do not have any but that's ok because they do block out sound really good if you have the right ear fittings. The wrap around the ear cable as in the picture taken was a little confusing at first because I didn't know how to put them in . No instructions inside box but did find quick ones on the side of the box that showed me how to use them upside down option and they are really comfortable and stay in place

Great sound
on January 15, 2026
Posted by: JoshuaR
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These JBL headphone provide a crisp sound; great for listening to music or making phone calls with the built in mic; they do have a standard headphone jack but can use a adapter; these fit very well in my ears and are comfortable and don’t make my ears hurt

Good buds, limited useage.
on January 15, 2026
Posted by: EricB
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These have a great sound. Obviously in the age of everything being wireless, this ain’t a product to use with your phone. However, this is great when you have shared office space where you can’t use speakers. They’re great for Zoom meetings or listening to music on your laptop as well. They have a good bass sound and surprisingly good functionality. If you’re listening to a music player there is function on the wire itself to skip/pause/go back with one button. I have issues with some buds fitting my ears but these actually go on and stay in better than most.

Doesn't hurt my ears!
on January 14, 2026
Posted by: CynthiaW
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ohh I love these for long walks. The bass sounds good for my favorite jams. The pods are magnetized which I had no idea! And there's a L and R Initial on each pod. You twist them in your ear for a close fit.

One size fits all, and they twist for better sound
on January 14, 2026
Posted by: DjShakyS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Yes, these wired ear buds are really cool because they twist, and that allows more bass and tighter fit for working out or running, they are perfect for that.
