Super comfortable headphone clips for everyday use
on April 1, 2026
Posted by: AdamT
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first time using “external” headphones that sit on the outside of your ear. At first I was hesitant, but after using it for a week I actually am digging them. They are extremely light weight headphones that just sit on the outer end of the ear and somehow you’re able to hear audio through your ear. They’re super comfortable and surprisingly have good audio. One of the things that I sometimes worry about is impact of headphones on my long term hearing but give that these headphones sit on the outside, I feel like I have less of a concern. Additionally, being able to hear both my audio and what’s happening in my surroundings is great for an outdoor activity like biking or walking in the city. The battery overall has been pretty good - used it for 7 hours at work and in my commute and had no problems. Would recommend if you’re in the market for an exoskeleton headphone!

Light, comfortable, and cool looking in-ear headph

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these open-ear headphones! Like all JBL products, they pair easily. They are really light and comfortable, while giving off really optimal sound. I particularly like the brown color, and both the headphones and case are sized just right, with a cool design. Priced in line with other similar products, and well worth it!

Smooth feel and great sound

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I spend a lot of time listening to music, and various online books across all kinds of earbuds and headphones. I was really interested in these the moment I saw they were an open-ear earclip design. This style has some real advantages for everyday use. they enable you to keep your situational awareness, your ears stay cooler, and it is much easier to hold a quick conversation without fully stopping what you are listening to. For that kind of all-day casual use, open-ear designs can be really convenient. I sometimes forget that I have them on.
First impressions were strong. The transparent housings on both sides of the clip looks different from the earbuds I have from JBL and Beats.
Actually, the case is one of the nicest-looking earclip cases I have had.

Setup on my Samsung phone and Samsung watch was excellent. Pairing was quick, battery information was easy to check, and I appreciated the deeper device integration features. The app is also very well done. It is clean, easy to navigate, and packed with useful settings instead of feeling like a bare-minimum companion app.
My calls sounded clear and I was able to answer my phone without any problems. The mic worked very well.
The headphones are nice to watch YouTube videos and on the phone and computer and chat with my family. These headphones are very comfortable to wear. The headphones sound great with music and calls. The mic works well and the controls are easy to get used to. I like that I can use the headphones and also hear my surroundings.
The only issue I had was while I was working detailing cars. If they were not well seated on the ear they could easily be brushed off. Because they feel very natural on the ear, I did not always realize they fell off.
The picture with 63% charge left is after working 4 hours. The picture showing 48% charge left is after a complete 10 hour day. The other pic is wearing the clip at work

JBL Sound with Amazing Style
on April 7, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Soundgear Clips are a unique type of headphone. Out of the box, they are ready to connect to your device through Bluetooth and the JBL app. The case is a transparent plastic that adds to the uniqueness with the clips matching the color. They are pocket, small bag, or purse friendly which makes them easy to take with you anywhere you go! They have that amazing JBL sound quality that you’ll love, volume doesn’t get drowned out with distortion, and have good high and low notes for whatever music you love! They are IP68 rated, so if you are getting in that intense workout or run, you don’t have to worry about water leakage into the headphones! Overall, the sound quality and unique case make the JBL Soundgear Clips stand out from other headphones out there!

So comfortable I forget they are there.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Soundgear Clips are extremely comfortable and have great sound. There is more bass than I was expecting. These have become my go to headphones for hiking. They are so comfortable I forget I have them on sometimes. This style of headphone, to me, feels like it has minimal effect on the ambient environment. I would recommend these headphones to anyone and have recommended them to friends.
