Jaybird Freedom 2 2017 into 2018 MODEL - REVIEW

2017-09-27
a vr1 Jimmy with gems of review room j-bird released their truly wireless earphones the j-bird runs which I have reviewed and the channel definitely check it out but they also released an update to their j-bird freedoms these are the freedom twos and they're priced at one hundred and fifty dollars at the Thomas video coming in either carbon or gold as always being transparent with you guys with my work here j-bird did send these over for review my assessment was not altered in any way please watch the entire video for both pros and cons last I've placed my affiliate links in the video description below click on my links and they'll give you the most updated prices in real time they never know when these things might go on sale I'm Jimmy with Jim's review room and I'm here to help you make that purchase decision welcome everyone to another review going over what comes in the package please pause the video if you need to items highlighted in orange or gold are new or redesigned while the rest remains the same over last year's model we have new ear fins and ear tips jaybird dubs this secure fit and there's a new method of shortening the wires behind your neck called speed fit now starting with the earphones and ear tips they're now one piece construction for different sizes and less to manage now they're super soft very comfortable in the ear and a jaybird freedom to provide very good passive noise isolation to block out the outside world here but one area I'm more concerned about doesn't stay in my ears this is clearly subjective and I want to make sure everyone understands this everyone its ears are different now please write in the comments section below if you owned a pair of Jaybirds before did they stay in your ear well or not this should help everyone get an idea versus just my own experience here now the freedom to use are indeed crazy small and very light weights more so than any other pair of headphones I've tested in the channel they're also one of the lowest profile earphones ever so if you're wearing a ski mask if you're going skiing which I clearly haven't done but say you're biking and wearing how much the earphones stay flush against your ears without sticking out and wearing any kind of headgear like a helmet won't feel uncomfortable you can wear these two different ways the first is your traditional method like most other earphones laying it dangle on the back of your neck now this was okay for me the new ear fins and ear tips combination does work better than my freedoms from last year but compared to the competition I would have to press them back in from time to time the other wearing method that did work for me though is the over the ear wearing style flip ease around and as mentioned earlier there's new built in clips that makes the wire taut preventing the wire from bouncing around as much simply pull on them and they stay in place and I love this feature here much easier than last year's and easier than you j-bird x3s and to undo them basically you just pull them apart this holds true to the speed fit name hen it works with a stop the earphones were less likely to fall out and for the most part stayed inside my ear canal much better again test them out yourself but being up front after reviewing so many earphones over the last four years or so I've had others staying with a bit more confidence moving on j-bird retains its water resistance simply spray actually drenching the hell out of these things j-bird has been holding up perfectly fun I've never had an issue with Jaber products over the last several years and specifically with the freedom twos I can attest mine are still working now going over its battery life most other air phones offers between six to eight hours of use j-bird offers something very unique to keep these earphones possibly the lightest and smallest in the world the j-bird freedom twos have up to four hours of battery life sounds shorts but jabber includes this little attachment here and when you're on your way to the gym possibly before you go for your run clip the Sun and it recharge the earphones very similar to a mini power bank now you get an additional four hours here so in total in theory you get eight hours of total playback now if you're in a crunch 20 minutes of recharging - freedom - gives you an hour worth of music so with my test living it at 50% vine to get a middle-of-the-road number from a full battery to dead the j-bird freedom twos lasted 4 hours and 16 minutes to be exact to recharge to a full battery using the clip jibber claims up to two and a half hours I timed my experience and was able to finish at 1 hour and 28 minutes as documented on your screen now as a side note you can wear the clip while you're working out or running I prefer wearing it with the over-the-air method as it wires stays in place if you're wearing this the traditional Undergear method be sure to use the clip to attach to your shirt the better attachment is very lightweight and you won't feel it winged down on you if worn but it will cause the wire to sway a bit more than not having it on now keeping the wire stationary helps a lot for a Bluetooth connection jaybird is using bluetooth 4.1 which is still very good here testing the range on these and I know the chamber graphic is bigger than my entire head here but I was able to get the full 40 linear feet in my office with these Samsung no.8 now as we're phone calls voices sounded great during quiet environments these earphones still picked up wind noise surrounding background noise and just wouldn't in general while moving running biking etc now getting to audio quality jaybird does offer one of the best audio experiences for a pair of sport earphones from the factory they're on a flat audio setting but using these jaybird my sound app you can get them to sound the way that you want using the equalizer get bassy beat headphones like performance or if you prefer brightness is crisp highs for vocals maybe or some rock music in there you can achieve that too it's very intuitive and very easy for any average consumer to use then because of how easy it is to tune these are the most versatile earphones for all genres of music and that's not a blanket statement that's not me trying to make a general statement these truly are capable of customizing to your personal preference now for some reason if you choose not to there's presets built into the app from brand ambassadors of jaybird and once you'd like a setting even your own the settings are saved into the freedom to itself even if you didn't have the app later let's say you pair this to a SmartWatch your audio signature stays in the earbuds stored on there for your listening experience pretty high-tech now overall the audio signature is loud it's not distorting overall they sound amazing so folks be sure to LIKE and subscribe and follow me on Facebook Twitter or Instagram that's it for this review hopefully it helped you in some way again I'm Jimmy with Jim's review room and I'm here to help you make that purchase decision you guys take care and I will see you on the next one bye you
