I'm wasting strive hey everyone Jimmy with Jim's review room j-bird is back bringing what may be the smallest and lightest pair of Sport Bluetooth earphones on the market now they sent me their fifth generation pair of freedoms and this time there's a serious focus at style sound engineering for such small earphones and as always originality but they do retail for the premium price of one hundred and ninety nine dollars at the time this video making these more expensive than the h2 models and on the upper end of sport Bluetooth earphones I'll omit pricey but let's see if the total redesign is worth every penny click on my link in the video description below prices do fluctuate and my link will give you the most updated prices so without further ado my channel is here to help you make a purchase decision welcome everyone to jim's review going over what is included in the box j-bird returns with providing both silicon and the comply foam ear tips small medium and large are offered for each type along with the very familiar your winglets that we've seen any jaybird x-series two wire clips are provided to shorten the cord causing the wire behind your head to hold steady due to tension here and the earphone stem cells will fit over your ear that you don't need to use the winglets with this wearing method now for my personal testing on fit I highly recommend this style where and it does hold on very well when running and doing other vigorous activities again they did hold on very well but on a very few occasions they do become loose over time do you have to push them back in now the other method of wearing this is the more traditional way that most of us know of the air foam dangles from our ears and they wear on the back and the neck just hangs now indeed these do feel better than the x2 however I'm still encountering nearly the same issues with the winglets again when wearing it in this fashion that they simply just don't stay on regardless of the sizes that I try and on another side note though of course your ears are different than mine but those with small ear canals they do have to fit pretty snug so just a heads up on that and then last in the box here there is a protective case which is pretty original to me it's not magnetized but two metal bands requires you to pinch the ends here to stay open not a hard shell case but it does what it needs to do now getting a closer look at the freedoms plastic has worked perfectly fine before but this time they've introduced metal housing with a paint finish which has been holding up from my experience now there's no sweat proof but I tested this while running in the rain as you've seen earlier in the video here and they still work perfectly fine and when you do compare this to any other sport earphones you can see just how crazy small these things are and if you wear glasses wearing this while cycling with a helmet on it's such a minimal design that won't get in your way now how do they do this almost everything is housed in this little controller now it looks a little bulky here when you do compared to the competition but it's not heavy to weigh one side of your head down it's pretty standard with volume up and down it's also used to skip music but in the middle the action button for answering phone calls or pausing and playing music is located there now rotating to the rear arm metal pin connectors to use Jaybirds proprietary charging dangle or attachment now just snap is on and plug in your supplied get short though you be 2.0 cable one of the biggest positives though the attachment itself can recharge your earphones while you're on the go you don't need the wire just think of this like a mini portable power bank you're on the way to the gym while in the car Snap is on and it provides about an hour of use from a 20 minute charge not bad on the downside though this is proprietary so just make sure you don't lose it now jaybird is claiming up to eight hours of total use but looking closer at the item description the earphone stem cells provides four hours of use and the charging attachment provides another four hours of playback totaling up to the eight hours that they claim now from my testing of leaving us on at 50% volume I was able to achieve 5 hours and 27 minutes into the unit died I also recharged the freedoms again with the attachment into recharge had taken me about an hour and 30 minutes from a dead battery all the way to full and the very last test here that played these at maximum vine both on the earphones and the smartphone here the freedoms then lasted three hours and 34 minutes to be precise now the eight hours claim is probably an understatement from my experience here and you might actually get more on your end if you're playing a moderate to medium levels now you can technically where the attachment if you absolutely need to as it's seriously super lightweight but I would wear it when working out at the gym rather than running or doing some other vigorous activities it does bounce around a little bit there now we're in the attachment how it looks on the other hand that's up to you guys that subjective so this leads us to this sound test now for a pair of wireless sport earphones I honestly think Jay Berg did it once again the sound is immersive the volume is loud for most people the sound quality is very impressive again for wireless sport earphones because these are in ear they do offer passive noise isolation and from my experience it does block out a good bit of outside noises the base on these are very good with just the right amount for my taste here is not as deep in bass like the powerbeats2 but the bass boost is signature helps very much with those listening to EDM dance and hip-hop clean it's not overdone and deep enough making these a very universal pair to have now the mid-range is clean and clear it's pronounced not bright and not underwhelming if you're listening to quality high bitrate music files not stream that is the sound stage on these are very good for support Bluetooth earphones with hearing audio characteristics from the front and behind you overhead and below you regarding the highs listen to these at higher volumes there's no ear ringing in your ear tameness and despite the freedom to capability of being loud listening to these for a while I didn't have any listening fatigue whatsoever unless regarding sound characteristics jaybird offers this app called my sound now on the home page here there are several presets to change the sound signature both the general audio adjustments do sound profiles created by athletes themselves like clicking on all presets there's a bunch more to choose from that will suit your taste but that's not the unique part here going into the customization you can fine tune the freedoms very well surprisingly for such an easy and intuitive method of just sliding the frequency ranges up and down the audio characteristics and the freedoms can change very subtle - very aggressive but the freedoms they are very responsive to tuning now you like somewhat of a brighter mid-range adjusting this I can easily hear a difference but more importantly adjusting this all the way up the freedoms doesn't become distorted the same with pumping bass all the way up here although the adjustments are drastic the freedoms response will still provide a quality sound without being muffled or distorted that I've seen on some other cheaper earphones now the last aspect of the app here which is very original you can save your presets and they will save directly into your earphones if you were to use the freedoms on another smartphone or device that sound profile won't change there again it's saved right into your earphones now watching movies with these and testing this on my Samsung s7 with Netflix it's been simply amazing that soundstage again it's very impressive and for the most part there doesn't seem to be a delay which we do see on some wireless Bluetooth headphones or earphones but on rare occasions with these with the freedoms you might sense a millisecond where the lips slightly move before the audio gets to your ears it's not drastic it's a lot better than most other bluetooth wireless headphones and earphones out there maybe it's not noticeable to most but you guys know how MUC here in our last regarding wireless range that they perform very well here as good as any other good Wireless pair of headphones and earphones I walked downstairs and the freedom still kept a skip free signal going through several walls and the first floor ceiling so in the end here I've tested many wireless support earphones in the past several years on this channel alone and a good amount fit and how meant it does stay better in my ear but none of them though from my experience at least the ones I've tested so far does basically sound as good as these I recommend to give them try if one of your main protease is audio quality and basically a very very slim small minimalistic design again just make sure that the fit works for your ears basically so I'm Jimmy with Jim's review room and find me on Facebook Twitter and or Instagram you guys take care and I'll see you in the next one bye
