For what these are I like these Jaybirds very much. I am a headphone fanatic; I love to try different headphones and IEMs. However, I have come to a point where I pretty much hate IEMs and hate bluetooth. So these are both IEMs and bluetooth so why would I try them. Well there are just some times where chords are really really inconvenient, and some situations where a headphone is just not practical.
The reason I hate IEMS is that (a) I don't like stuff in my ear and they are uncomfortable, (b) they fall out. These Jaybirds do a good job of covering both these objections. They come with multiple fit options, and I do like the small comfort time. They also come with a couple of different ways to keep them from falling out. I prefer the ones that fit in hear because the over ear ones get in the way of my glasses.
The reason I hate bluetooth is that pretty much every bluetooth headphone I've tried has lousy sound quality. I also hate the connectivity issues.
Now these do not have the sound quality of a truly premium wired headset. But I'd say they are a definite step up from the Apple earphones that come with the iPhone 6. I can listen to these without hearing a lot of extraneous noise of distortion. You won't get the depth of field or the detail of a premium headphone, but I find the sound more than just acceptable which is high praise for a bluetooth headset.
The packaging is very clever and I like the carrying case. I also like that they come with a thick charging cable - cables won't get tangled or mixed up.
I just wish the chord that connected right and left were not so microphonic. It picks up every sound when you touch it or move around. That's not the best for a headphone intended for active use. All in all these are by far the best bluetooth headset I've heard.

I had the chance to review a couple of premium Bluetooth headsets designed for working out. These and the Jabra Sport Coach. I’m going to assess them against each other, as well as the budget ones I’ve been using, the Cootree 220. I would like to, but don’t have a set available, to also compare the Jabra’s with HRM included (Jabra Sport Pulse).
The Jaybird X2 and Jabra Sport Coach are both pricey compared to the types of devices I have been using, and I’m on the fence about whether they are worth 5x the price of devices like the Cootree. However, there are several things to like in these premium units.
Best fit:
1) Jabra Sport Coach. The Jabras offer silicone earless and rubber EarWings. It was easy to find a good-fitting combination, and the Jabras fit comfortably and securely in my ears.
2) Cootree. These are a different than the other two. Over-ear with sort of a spring system to keep them on your head. One size fits all; no messing around with different size ear buds. However, they fit very snugly and comfortably. One drawback to this design is that if you take them off, you’re holding them in your hand. The ear bud design allows you to drape them over your shoulder.
3) X2. The Jaybirds include both silicone Ear Tips and foam ear tips. I really don’t like the foam. They feel scratchy, and they never felt secure. With the Jaybird Ear Fins, I could not find one small enough to fit my ears. I could not find a combination of fins and tips that was comfortable and secure.
Best sound:
1) Jabra Sport Coach. Phone calls, audiobooks, all kinds of music. The Jabra had by far the richest sound quality.
2) Cootree. For the money, pretty solid.
3) Jaybird X2: disappointing. I was not really impressed, and the Jaybirds did not have the range or richness of the other earphones
Miscellaneous:
Jaytree. Best looking of the three, but just not comfortable or good sounding. I like the flat cable, though.

First impressions: The packaging is very nice, which in a way I think is a waste because most people don't keep it. But it does let you know that the manufacturer isn't skimping on the product. The set consists of the earbuds, 2 sets of ear tips (foam and silicone) in 3 different sizes, 3 sets of hooks, a carry case and a charging cord. Everything is packaged beautifully and designed well.
I've never needed to use earhooks and the mid sized ear tips fit me just fine and securely. These wireless earbuds have the usual features and functions of the same kind: BT, phone functions, control pod on the cord, etc. Bluetooth works great and connected quickly without a passcode.
Sound: I've reviewed and tested many earbuds and headphones and I'll have to say that this is one of the best/better ones I've used. I looked up the specs on their website and found that these have single 6mm drivers. They also use their own software to decode the signal (which is not uncommon). My go-to earbuds are a pair of 10mm dual driver ones which produces a strong bass and I'd forgotten about the rest of the audio range until I heard these. The quality of the sound is very good and it grows on you. The mid-range is crystal clear and I could hear notes that I couldn't hear before. The rest of the audio spectrum is very pleasant. The high range is available and not shrill or uncomfortable. The bass is soft and pleasant and not overboosted like some earbuds that promise booming bass. These earbuds have a big body and they've used that and the 6mm divers to produce an admirable sound.
All other features aside, I think the main function of a pair of earbuds is to provide a good listening experience and I definitely think that these earbuds do a good job. I would definitely recommend them.

If you're like me, you've been hunting for a pair of bluetooth earbuds to pair with your Apple Watch that stay in your ears, sound amazing, hold a charge, and maintain clarity throughout a workout (in that order).
Meanwhile, I've been continuing to run with my phone wired to my arm with my pair of Bose wired earbuds. And while it appears there will be no Bose bluetooth earbuds in the foreseeable future, I am happy to report that the JayBird X2 are just as good as any Bose product you might be hoping for.
First and foremost, the new tips are made of memory foam and actually STAY IN YOUR EARS when running. I've run five miles without an issue. To me, this is worth the price alone after trying several other bluetooth pairs that just don't stay in your ears. I'll pay to get rid of the frustration of running in silence after my headphones have flopped out of my ears one time too many. They come with three sizes of tips AND three sizes of the "ear wings" so I can guarantee you'll be able to customize them to fit your ears. As a runner, owning an Apple Watch is almost not worth it if it's not paired with a great pair of headphones to enjoy.
Not only do they stay in place, but they sound amazing. In a side-by-side comparison, I wouldn't say they sound the same as my Bose earbuds, but it is close enough to where I can't tell the difference, and am not longing for Bose sound on my runs.
They do cut out on occasion, but it has never been enough to be distracting. And so far, the eight hour battery life has lived up to its expectations.
Overall, I would strongly recommend investing in these headphones. I bought them after my brother puchased them, and he too raves about their quality. They've actually made me run more just to enjoy the freedom of great sound with nothing but a watch and some wireless buds.
Enjoy!

I could go on and on about the product because it's amazing, I've had two different generations of headphones and have never had a technical issue with the actual earbuds...but the absolute best thing about this product, and what keeps me going back, is the company that stands behind it.
They have gone above and beyond the highest standards to ensure I was completely satisfied in every interaction. They've given me complimentary earbud attachments because a new version came out very shortly after i purchased my wireless headphones (no fault of their own, just timing on my part but they just did it because they're awesome...I didn't even ask, they just offered me the free attachments in an email).
My charger stopped working after a couple years, so when I called to get another, they offered me an insane discount instead (around $75 off of $175 headphones) as an opportunity to experience the new version that they just released that was smaller and much improved....just because....they are always this nice, trust me.
I randomly found this company online about 6 years ago not knowing a thing about them, but instead I took a huge chance because they were one of the few that had wireless headphones at the time. At over $100-$150 a pop, it's not cheap if the product and/or company is sub par, so I took a risk and I could not be happier with that decision.
I have continued to purchase numerous products ever since and have received the same amazing customer service that I experienced day one. The sound and quality of the product has far exceeded my expectations and it is exactly the motivation I needed to help me run miles at a time.....I just need them to create underwater ear buds that I can wear while swimming laps (hint, hint

Coming from the Jaybird Freedom Sprint's the fitment was definitely better on the x2's, although they could be tricky to insert properly. It took me nearly an hour to try out the sizes and types (foam vs silicone) of buds, wings, and comparing the fitment between wearing it over ear vs under ear, before I felt comfortable using them for my workouts.
So far the x2's has stayed in my ears pretty well throughout various cardio exercises and running, but still required an occasional re-seating in the ear for a proper sound seal. This was acceptable to me since it was a clear step up in in-ear stability compared to my JF4's.
The sound quality was an improvement over the JF4's but I couldn't say it was night and day difference. While I was comfortable with the volume of the sound of the x2's, a lot of reviewers mentioned that the volume of sound could be louder. I did notice that my JF4's were louder than the x2's, which is slightly of a disappointment for something of this price tag. Otherwise, the quality of sound is pretty solid and rich. BT connectivity has been great, no drops during my workouts and runs so far.
Aesthetics wise, I would say the x2's is a winner with its minimalist design. Really like the sleek matte black look, while they also have other colors that stand out if thats your thing.
Ultimately, if you are not looking to workout, exercise, play sports, then I would not recommend getting the x2's. These are purely designed for sport and specifically for people that have rigorous workouts. I gave these buds 4 stars due to the price since I paid nearly $200 after tax. Hopefully they last a long time like the JF4's did for me.

Quick review of this product that might help you decided on if you should purchase these or not. Hands down the best bluetooth had phones that I have every used, and probably among some of the best overall headphones I have used. I am in the gym ton, and have been very impressed with the quality and durability of these headphones. I have dropped mine, flipped them across the room, set weights on them, and never had any issues with mine. They seem very durable. Sound quality is really good, and I use mine to talk on as much as listen to music on. I get very few complaints about people not being able hear me unless I am outside and there is a lot of road noise or wind, but I think that holds true for any bluethooth headset.
On thing that I like the most is how customizable the ear fit it. They come with 3 sizes of ear fins, and 3 ear tips both in the foam, and in the rubber, so you can get a really good fit.
It seems like the playback volume is a little quiet, but I still don't have any issues hearing my music when at the gym.
When they say 8 hours of battery life, they actually really do mean 8 hours. I usually have mine on all day.
The only issue I have had is I will loose the ear pieces sometimes, especially the rubber ones. It seems like after a while they get a little slipper from the oil from your hands and face. You can order replacement ear tips as well as the ear fins so it isn't really that big of a deal.
There are perhaps better sounding headphones on the market, but as far as a bluetooth headphones that have excellent sound quality, are comfortable to wear, light weight, have long play back time, and most importantly for me hold up to being abused in the gym, I haven't find anything better.

These are beautifully designed headphones, starting with the packaging. Opening the box is an experience not unlike opening an Apple product. Every detail has been thought through. But the true beauty lies in the ergonomics and sound of the Jaybird X2 headphones themselves.
The main thing, of course, is the sound quality and it is excellent. I put the headphones through the sound tests at audiocheck and they passed every test exceptionally well, with the bass coming out just a bit ahead of the treble in the dynamic range tests. I am very happy with the quality of sound in all of the various genres I listen to - jazz, classical, latin, rock and acoustic guitar all sound amazing.
There are several sets of earphone coverings in different sizes from which to choose for a comfortable fit along with different sized wings to choose from to keep them from falling out of your ears. No matter how vigorously you shake and jostle your head, the wings help these headphones stay comfortably in place.
The good:
Incredible ergonomics
Beautiful sound quality
Awesome design
A cool carrying case
Easy to pair with other Bluetooth devices
Charges quickly with enclosed cable (mini usb port is behind a little trap door in one of the earphones)
Control bar is easy to reach and feel
Love the green color
The bad:
None that I have discovered
Bottom lime:
Beautifully designed headphones from start to finish. Great for any activity where wearing a hanging cord is not desirable.

Confession: I don't use these for "sport". I have a couple pairs of bluetooth headsets that I use when I work around the house, or am doing outdoor work like mowing the lawn or outdoor repairs. The headsets I have are bulky and uncomfortable and hot, and I was very excited to have an opportunity to try these earbuds.
Positives: The bluetooth connectivity was seamless. I was able to connect with my phone, and my ipad with very little effort. And unlike some of my other devices, these connect automatically with my devices without me having to reconnect every time I use them. I am not sure how these differ from my other devices, but I'm excited about the difference. The range on these is suprisingly large. I am able to leave my ipad on one side of the house and go clear to the otherside of the house, and even into the laundry room without losing the signal or the connection. Although I find that they lose their charge fairly quickly compared to other headsets I have used, they at least charge extremely rapidly.
Negatives: I do not find these comfortable at all. The smallest inserts provided feel way too big for my ears, and even with the ear pieces in place, I constantly feel like the headphones are going to pop out. However, most importantly, the sound quality is simply average. These are extremely expensive, but my $30 Apple Ear Pods have much richer sound for a fraction of the price. Granted, these are bluetooth, so perhaps there is some loss of sound quality due the the wireless. Still, I would have expected much better sound given the high cost.
***Addition*** The battery life on these is abysmal. I find I need to recharge them nearly every day, as opposed to other headphones I've used that require only weekly charging with regular use.

This is the second pair of bluetooth wireless headphones I have tried and these sound so much better than the other pair I own! I have a pair of Sol Republic wireless headphones that sit on the back of your neck and found them to sound very static-y and depending on what you were doing with them (i.e. sitting still or working out), they had the potential to come out of your ears, pulled by the weight of the neck piece (for instance during sit-ups). These Jaybirds don't have any of those issues. They are lightweight- only the cord goes behind your neck! All of the hardware is housed in the earbud portion with the exception of a very small controller just below one of the earbuds to answer calls, turn it on and off, and shuffle through songs. I don't have an issue with static- granted, you will probably never get the sound that would appeal to an audiophile from a pair of wireless headphones, but these sound rather good. There are also lots of fit options between the mesh-like piece that sits inside your outer ear and the actual buds themselves. You should find a satisfactory fit. And they come with a carrying case to house both the headphones AND the charger! No worries about misplacing the charger like with other wireless devices (I have so many different chargers, I have no idea what goes with what or where half of them end up!).
My only issue, was I had the worst time trying to figure out how to charge them! There are no real instructions included with the headphones, and certainly nothing that tells you that the back of one of the earpieces opens up to plug the charger in. I had to figure it out by going to their website.
All-in-all, I would recommend these! They sound great, stay put, fit well, and store nicely!

First, I never had a pair of the original Jaybird bluetooth earbuds, so can't tell you if these are worth the extra cost. I see some reviews argue that you can get the old ones and upgrade with accessories. What I can tell you is these are the best I have found for running. I've been using the large foam tips, mid-size fins and have been routing the wire over my ear. Nothing is going to knock the out.
That's the most innovative feature of the Jaybird X2... fit. With three sizes each of foam and silicone tips plus three sizes of ear fins, you have a multitude of combinations to try. Plus cord clips allow you to tighten or loosen the cord fit. I'm wearing it tight to keep the wires from batting around, giving you that cord echo sound.
Bluetooth connectivity is great and almost immediate. Unlike other Bluetooth devices, these seem to lock on target like a laser. If I turn off the Jaybirds it turns off what I'm playing, so I don't have to do as much coordination between devices.
Sound quality is tops; the unit is small and light; battery life is excellent.
Why the downgrade to 4 stars? (I'd give them 4.5 if I could) The carrying case looks great but is larger than needed. The price seems a little high to me, by about $50. Even with those two minor points, I'd give the Jaybird X2 5 stars for sure if they included a noise cancelling feature. I do a lot of flying and I love being able to cancel out the jet noise. These are good for isolation but that it is not the same. Still, these are the best I've found for running and I do that 5 days a week.

These are good for isolation but that it is not the same. Still, these are the best I've found for running and I do that 5 days a week.

I so much wanted to love these! They are gorgeous! The box and packaging is so hefty and weighty ... weight = quality, right? Sometimes it does. But here, not so much.
These are my first pair of Jaybird headphones and at first impression I was extremely impressed with the beautiful packaging and presentation of this $179 pair of wireless Bluetooth headphones. Unfortunately, the beautiful packaging is where the 5 star rating stops for me.
Pros:
- Gorgeous presentation!
- Great fit, comfortable (need to follow directions for the angles of the fins & eartips) to get the most comfortable fit. Wore without any discomfort for a good length of time.
- Easy Bluetooth setup / pairing
- Ergonomic buttons / placement
- Nice overall design
- Sweatproof
Cons:
- The sound is so tinny and lacks depth. $179 headphones? The price is not justified by the sound quality.
- The beautiful case is so difficult to open! If you don't have a nail or don't mind squashing the silicone case to get an edge ... it's a really snug fit!
- Detailed instructions only available on the website. This may result in some unnecessary returns.
I get the sense that because Jaybird decided not to include the detailed fitting instructions in the packaging and are driving people to their website, there are going to be those people who are going to try to gain the proper fit without some of the instructions on angles and over-the-ear options. There will be some who will avoid the website and return the product. I am not sure the exclusion of instructions for such an expensive and flexible fit product was a great move by Jaybird.
I wanted to love them more ... they just need some tweaks with the sound and packaging and they would be perfect.

I picked up these headphones (having never really owned a high end pair of headphones before) for the purposes of working out and running. I was pleasantly surprised with these higher end headphones for several reasons.
First the overall sound from the headphones is excellent. The sound is rich, and you can really tell a difference when you switch from a cheap pair of headphones to these. The voices are much clearer, and the bass can really be felt pumping from these headphones. I think music lovers will be happy with the overall quality of the sound.
The headphones are sturdy and seem to be able to last the test of time. These are thick, and the accompanying cord has a thickness to it that should last the test of time.
It is really easy to pair your headphones with any device that is bluetooth compatible. I took it out of the box, turned on the headphones and was listening to music in a matter of minutes. If you have a basic knowledge of technology you should be up and running in no time.
The headphones come with several different size attachments for the ear buds, so no matter what the size of your ears, you should be able to find a good fit for you.
The only thing I did not like about the headphones was the fit for my ears. When I run I sweat, and the bouncing causes headphones to periodically drop out of my ears. The fit on these headphones was ok, but I had to try several different configurations in order to make them stay in my ears while I work out. I finally went with the over the ear fit for the headphones and that seemed to help.

Before I bought these I had tried numerous others. Last pair before this was the latest LG for over $100. (Which quit working after the first week of use when I went running and apparently sweated on them.) I've now owned five pairs of these. The battery life is only a few hours of constant use. So I keep a spare with me for work and a spare for the gym while one is charging. The fifth one broke on me because I wasn't keeping it in the clamshell and I smashed it by mistake. So use your clamshells for the protection they offer.
Sometimes the microphone is not working properly and I'm forced to use my cellphones mic. Most of the time though it works as designed.
They are suppose to be somewhat waterproof and usable in the shower. I haven't tried that. However I do sweat through my workout clothes everyday and these keep on working. Though I have had two that have eventually gone bad they were promptly replaced under warranty. Very nice of them. I put these through all their paces daily and I don't think they were designed for the abuse I dish out. But JayBird honors the warranties with no questions asked.
Sound quality is highly dependent on matching the eartip size to your ear. They supply several sizes. Once I matched the eartip size to my ear the sound quality is as good or better than anything else.
I highly recommend these but unfortunately JayBird has discontinued them in favor of something more expensive. I'll be buying the more expensive newer stuff when I have to. But until then these are far better than anything else available.

There are several very good reviews on these headphones, from people far more knowledgeable than I about electronics. Some folks loved them, some didn't care for them at all. At the price, I'm certain everyone expected perfection or close to it. It is easy to be disappointed when you anticipate that. All I am able to comment on is how they worked for me, and whether I feel they are worthy of purchase for the cost.
My need for these was different than others, I guess. I am not an exercise nut or a runner. I ride recumbent bikes, walk, and a little bit of yoga, so sweat is never going to be my problem. For all these activities the headphones were wonderful. It takes several attempts at finding the right fit so the sound is at its best and comfort is what it should be. The reason I grant 4 stars and not 5 stars is because of the difficulty of finding that fit. The sound quality is poor and they hurt your ears if you end up with the wrong fit. There is no good guide to help, only trial and error. I've never had this much trouble adjusting earbuds or headphones of any kind for fit. Why that is, I don't know.
Once you find the solution, the sound and comfort are unparalleled. These are my first wireless headphones, and I love them. Alongside their use in my activities, I use them for sleep aids. I have trouble sleeping often, and have been using my iTouch and the wired headphones to listen as I am in bed to help me get to dreamland. I either end up laying on my iTouch if I leave it on the bed or pull it off the night table. Either way it causes problems. Now, I can put these on the night stand and have no worries. They WORK! These are so much better!

I own the Jabra Pulse and just purchased these headphones. I like my Pulse, but they have a lot to desire. This will be a comparison of the two.
To sum up my review below, if I were to purchase one of the two again, I would have to go with the Jaybird X2.
I got these direct from the manufacturer. Just opened the box and set it all up. The setup is pretty straightforward and a lot more customizations than the Jabra Pulse. I LOVE the memory foam option, it allows for those times when I don't need to hear ambient noise like when I'm on the treadmill. The Jabra hurts my ears after a time, but the Jaybird is a nice comfortable fit.
The sound on the X2 is much better as well. The bass on both has something to be desired, but I'm not really looking for recording headphones when I'm working out.
The battery life on the X2 is MUCH better than the Pulse. Now I know that some of that is because the Pulse has the heart rate monitor- which I thought I would miss, but I don't.
I will say the customization setup for both of them is a bit difficult, but slightly more so for the X2, but once everything is set up, I never had to worry about either. I haven't had the X2 as long as the Pulse, but my Pulse earphone rubber is wearing off because you have to stretch it to get to the battery, whereas the X2 has a compartment that doesn't deal with the ear customizations and I really love that.
All in all, I really love the Jaybird X2's and will probably be setting aside my pulse for a while.

I have had a lot of problems finding earbuds for my apparently small ears. Nothing that sticks inside stays there, as they tend to be too large. I found these too large and uncomfortable for my small ears, in large part because the part that fits inside the ears is too large, even when using the smallest-sized covers. The whole point of the crescent-shaped apparatus is that it allows earbuds to NOT go into my ears so far they are uncomfortable, but with these, the crescent shape is more to hold them in better during very active workouts, and the earbud parts go just as far in as if they weren't there. So if earbuds work for you generally, these would be great for active use. If you want the crescents because earbuds are uncomfortable, look at the BOSE soundsport which has a much smaller "in ear" section that doesn't go very far in at all; the crescents on those simply hold them in place while letting you avoid the discomfort of having something wedged in where it is uncomfortable.
I also had a lot of trouble getting these to switch from my iphone to my skype for use; each time it involved turning them and my device off and re connecting to the bluetooth in question. So these are not going to work well for any on-the-fly switching, though they do work on each device I tried...I just couldn't switch without a good deal of finagling each time.

I've been using the Jaybird x2 while working out and their best feature is that compared to any other earbud, really compared to any other headphone that I've used, they just stay in place. I do the rowing machine a lot, and inevitably with the quick back-and-forth motion headphones dislodge and every 5 minutes or so even with the best I have had before, I have to stop and fix them. These can survive an hour-long, super-sweaty workout without moving at all as long as the foam pads are in.
The Jaybird comes with 6 different ear-size adapters in two different styles (silicone and foam) so you can pick which one is most comfortable and secure for you. I really appreciated this. Also appreciated is that the foam earbuds do such a good job of noise-blocking that I can hear even an audiobook while on the rowing machine without the volume all the way up.
The packaging was really, really well done and gives you the sense that this is a very high-end product. It would make a very impressive gift for this reason.
My primary complaint, like many other reviewers, is the sound. It isn't bad, it just isn't great. In sports earbuds, we shouldn't be surprised that we aren't getting an audiophile experience. But to be honest the sound coming out of these has been a step below what I would have expected. But that only matters on some songs and when I'm treally trying to pay attention to music quality.
For me the comfort and secure fit stil make me pop these in my ears when I am working out or running even if the sound quality isn't quite what I would have wanted.

I don't typically run with headphones outside because I feel that listening to music throws my breathing off. However, when I'm running on a treadmill I feel like headphones are a necessity - I don't have the patience to stare straight ahead for an hour while running in place. Unfortunately, I have never found a pair of headphones that will stay on comfortably throughout a run. And occasionally my arm will swing into my headphone cable and either throw my phone across the gym or pull my headphone cable out - neither is something I want to deal with in the middle of a run.
But these headphones overcome both of my biggest complaints: headphones not staying in properly and me accidentally swiping the cable and disconnecting my phone: the first these handle by providing various size of foam ear buds that expand to fill your ear. You can feel them filling up your ear when you pick the right size, and the second by being wireless. To me these are two huge advantages, but you are also paying a good deal more for these than "normal" headphones to get these advantages. And the sound quality is not any better than with "normal" headphones. Because sound quality is also important I only gave four stars, but if you want headphones that stay in and that are wireless, these are amazing. I haven't run outside with them - since they connect with bluetooth you'd still need yo carry your phone with you anyway, but inside on a treadmill these are ideal.

Jaybird's X2 Sport Wireless Bluetooth Headphones deliver great sound and fit, together with a good battery life. Having used more than a few Bluetooth headphones in the past, I've usually been disappointed with the sound quality, fit/ability to stay in the ear, or battery life.
The Jaybird X2's have a premium feel to them. There is a feeling of good design all the way down to the case. The flexibility for a custom fit makes it great for most users, I'd imagine. After getting the right fit, I found myself able to move a great deal and still unable to jar them lose.
The battery life has been very good. You get a full day (if you are using them for general use and not limited exercise runs). If using for exercise/running, you'll easily get multiple days of use before needing a charge. Even in the office, I can complete a day, then hook them up for charging without any problems. While this is my first set of Jaybird headphones, I haven't experienced the same battery life with other brands.
While the X2's are pricey, they do have a premium feel and design. I've been impressed with the quality. The sound is equally impressive. By no means am I an audiophile, but the music has had great sound and excellent bass tones. Better yet, calls have been clear. Noise blocking is on par with similar pairs. By no means are they equal to noise cancellation devices, but they do a pretty good job.
Overall, the X2's have been impressive and definitely worth putting into consideration on your next headphone purchase.

Sound quality
The sound quality of this item is just ok. The sound is not bad, but for the price I expected to hear something better. With that said, if you have a tin ear then pass on these headphones. By tin ear, I mean that you cannot discern the difference in sound between mono and stereo, or everything sounds the same to you. People with a tin ear will not gain anything from this product.
Connectivity
I had no issues connecting this headphone to my Samsung Note 2 cell phone. I have connected so many blue tooth devices to my phone to where I knew how to do it. Otherwise connectivity would have been an issue.
Storage Case
Herein lies the issue. I could not for the life of me figure out what that big case was. I thought it was some type of wireless device. Next I was looking for a charging port that I could not find. Finally I decided to press on the sides of the case and the lid slowly started opening. Maybe this would not have been an issue with a younger person, but the older crowd, like myself, needed some instructions or some type of insert stating this was a case.
Operation
I got through it. Not sure of what I was doing but I got sound. Instructions needed here too.
Packaging
The packaging of this product is impressive. I giving this as a gift, the sender will not be embarrassed.
Overall thoughts
This is a nice earphone set. The problem is the price seems to be on the high side. Plus at this price, instructions should be included.

I had the older Jaybird Bluebuds X model - they worked great, but after almost a year of use, I started experiencing an error with it. I was going to invest in another pair of earphones, so I looked at the wireless beats 2. After research, I found myself deciding between the wireless beats 2 and the jaybird X2 model. I contacted Jaybird and described the error. I sent the malfunctioning earphones in and they responded by sending me their new X2 model. They are great! I've only used them for a couple weeks now, but the battery life seems a little extended from the original and the new foam ear inserts are more comfortable than the older ones (they give you silicone and foam in the new X2s). The earphones are noticeably lighter than the Bluebuds X model which I prefer because it doesn't pull down as much if you aren't using their clips to tighten them around your head. Everything else is about the same as the X model as far as sound and performance. I pair them with my Moto 360 watch that will store my playlist so i don't have to carry my phone around and it makes running and working out less of a hassle. Jaybird treated me right and there is something to be said for a company willing to back up their product - they could've easily dismissed my claim, but they took good care of me and I am following suit with this review. Thanks Mr. Greg Snyder, Mr. Jordan Benson, and Mr. Tyler Hubbell.

The Jaybird X2 sport wireless Bluetooth headphone set is great for active use or just for sitting around and listening to high-quality sources. Everything you need to enjoy these headphones is included in the high-quality packaged set.
I tried and liked the foam earpieces and ear fins so much that I didn't try anything else from the set. The foam earpieces fit very much like foam earplugs that are in common use for (for example) loud road construction work. They block out outside noise to make it easy to concentrate on your sound or music source. And the earfins are excellent for keeping the earpieces in place. I pretty much never have to adjust or otherwise press back in to place the earpieces when configured with the foam and fins. The device is adjustable in many ways, including a fit that puts the cord behind your head while in use so that it's not in your way.
When I used these with my laptop, the connection was rock solid; it connected right away and never disconnected while in use. With another device, the connection wasn't as stable; but I'm willing to blame it on the other device.
Pairing and otherwise using the headset is easy. Voice prompts tell you what's happening all the time--power on/off, and pairing status.
If you want lightweight headphones with a fully configurable fit and state-of-the-art cord handling and earpiece holding, or you want a set of great-sounding Bluetooth headphones, look no further.

So...initially I gave these headphones a one star review because I couldn't figure out how to get them to pair to my phone. It was my goof in that I was turning Bluetooth on, but not going into settings and physically looking for the ear buds. For some dumb reason I assumed they would just pair when Bluetooth was turned on.
Anyway, I'm updating my review, such as it is. Very, very pleased with the ear buds at present! Nice sturdy build quality, great and varied selections of fins and ear pieces which should accommodate any size ear! Great sound quality which easily rivals my wired ear buds in every way save for that very annoying cord!
I wear them in the 'under' style, but you have the option of the 'over' style if you don't like the back of the ear bud wire resting on your neck. I don't mind it in the least.
My only complaint thus far is how long it takes them to actually charge. I'm 90 minutes in and they still have not fully charged. I know it usually takes around 2 hours, but they are supposed to come with a bit of a charge from the factory. Perhaps it's been awhile and they just needed the juice.
Anyway, as I use them I may update this to 5 stars in the near future.
Definitely happy I picked up a pair!

I wear them in the 'under' style, but you have the option of the 'over' style if you don't like the back of the ear bud wire resting on your neck. I don't mind it in the least.
My only complaint thus far is how long it takes them to actually charge. I'm 90 minutes in and they still have not fully charged. I know it usually takes around 2 hours, but they are supposed to come with a bit of a charge from the factory. Perhaps it's been awhile and they just needed the juice.
Anyway, as I use them I may update this to 5 stars in the near future.
Definitely happy I picked up a pair!
