Bose SoundSport Free Vs JayBird Run Vs Soul X-Shock - The Sports Wireless Earbud Match Up

2018-03-07
I've said it before and I'll say it again there are a lot of sports wireless earbuds to choose from we've got both big and small brands just flooding the market almost every other week there's a new parent that gets released and we're at a point where I can't even name them all but arguably the bose sound support free and the jaybird one are among the most popular and the soul x shock is the underdog I didn't expect to like so much usually a decent pair of truly wireless sports your buds retails between 150 and 200 dollars below that you might get questionable build quality or below average battery life or connection quality performance and if you're paying more than $200 for a pair of wireless earbuds I personally think you're overpaying that's why I picked these three wireless earbuds today the sole extra car currently retailing for one $49.99 the j-bird run currently retails for 170 $9.99 and the bose sound support free now has a price reduction from $250 to $200 if you want to pick either of these earbuds up I'll have a link in description below and if you use the link it really helps out to channel all three of these wireless earbuds have a few things in common they all have a slightly larger carrying case than the air pods they all have onboard binds to controller music playback and they all have one earbud that's the master and one earbud that's the slave but each of these earbuds also have a unique feature that sets them apart from one another first off let's go over the most significant one and that's battery life personally when I'm picking sports wireless earbuds for working out I'm not really concerned about amazing sound quality I'm looking for something that fits well and has a very long battery life and battery life is what the ex-jock has going for it for reference I go to the gym four times a week for two hours the jaybird run have a total advertised battery life of 12 hours and they usually last me for full workouts by the fifth workout I have to charge them back up or I'll still die mid-session the Bose sound sport free have a total advertised battery life for 15 hours and you'll usually last me six full workouts but the sole ex-jock has a 3000 milliamp hour battery built into its current case on a full charge I managed to go a month in one week without having to charge the egg shock and I even use the extra carrying case to keep my phone from dying malware out on the last day of testing the ex shock has an advertised battery life of 60 hours so theoretically I could go almost two months without having to recharge the carrying case with my workout frequency now the action aren't the first and they aren't the only wireless earbuds that also allows you to use their carrying case as a battery bank for your phone but from what I can tell they have the largest built-in battery and overall battery life on the market sure the ex-jocks carrying case is huge but if you're like me who has a pair of dedicated workout earbuds and just stashes them in your gym bag then the egg shock are a god-centered what are my biggest pet peeves is getting ready for a workout and then just realizing your earbuds or out of juice so you have to put them on the charger and wait for like 10 minutes before you can actually start working out and it's even worse if they require a proprietary cable like the j-bird x3 now when it comes to fit the ex shock fit me just fine but you only have two ear tip sizes to choose from the bullet sounds for free come with three silicone ear tips to choose from but still they're not going to fit everybody what the tapered one has going for it is fit in customization the j-bird run have round and oval silicone ear tips to choose from and you can mix and match the orphans any way you want and once you find that perfect fit the jabber run do the best job of staying locked in place while working out here the extra do just fine staying in place but you are going to have to readjust them from time to time the earbuds on the Bose sound sport free are the biggest and heaviest ear while weight lifting the bow stay in place very well but when I do my post workout cardio or for a runner who is constantly moving up and down the Bulls do have a tendency to wiggle out although the j-bird run do a very good job of staying locked in place the ear hooks on the power piece three or one of the reasons why I still like them so much and the defining characteristic the Bose sound sport free has is their overall to build quality their case and ear buds are the most premium feeling ones here like I said in the initial review the j-bird run have a pretty cheap case I'm worried the lid is just going to eventually snap off and I hate how the earbuds don't magnetically align themselves to the case which has resulted me in frequently dropping to jaybird ear buds regarding build quality on the sole egg shock a neutral it's not amazing but it's also not bad all three of these ear buds are water and sweat resistant but the Bose sounds board free or built like a tank now when it comes to cell quality all three of these but sound very different personally I think the sole extra or the worst sounding earbuds here but it doesn't mean they sound that they have a good amount of bass but they also have a good amount of tuning the bose sound support 3 or the clearer sounding earbuds here and the j-bird run are the best sounding your metier and you can also make them sound however you like to the table tab but even though the jaybird run are the best sounding earbuds here they don't get as loud as the other two earbuds the bose sound sports we do get a little louder but they do let in a lot more ambient sound personally i like to listen to the X up while I'm working out because they block out as much sound as the deeper run but they also get much louder and they have the bass I want when I'm working out well like I said on my Bose sound support free review when deciding to use truly wireless earbuds you do give up the convenience and inline controller offers like the ones on the power beats 3 or J Brand X 3 both did include a full set of buttons on their earbuds so you can play or pause your music skip a track go back a track and activate Siri but the buttons on the Bose are so hard to press it's just easier to use your phone the same thing can be said about the run and extra their controls are much more limited so you're going to find yourself whipping out your phone more frequently as well having an inline controller is another reason why I still gravitate towards the power beats 3 I don't have to touch my phone as much when I'm working out now the last thing I want to touch on here is connectivity first off none of these earbuds are good for watching YouTube videos they all have varying degrees of latency but one of the biggest problems I've had with the j-bird run is that their connection isn't very stable but depending on what phone you have your results may vary my Jaber run have a really hard time that skipping a track when used with my iPhone 6s plus and yes they do have to lay this firmware but on the other hand the both an ex-jock have no problem keeping a clear and stable connection with my phone and no matter how good any pair of earbuds sound or how long their battery life is all poor Bluetooth connection is not acceptable now remember this isn't a full review on either of these ear but I'm just trying to point out the most important differences between them so I couldn't open with a purchase decision if you want to learn more about either of these earbuds then watch their full reviews personally I like the sole extract the most here because of their incredibly long battery life low profile design and haven't the option to charge my phone with their carrying case is great I don't have to interrupt my work and I can just plug it in and keep going the boss sounds worth free are also good but they are on the higher end of the price spectrum and those earbuds are just huge the table run are also good but their connection stability is a problem for me you might have the results with a different phone but still they don't get loud enough for me and not to mention their battery life is the shortest here so you're going to have to remember to charge them more frequently hey if you enjoyed the video
