[Review] UA Wireless Headphones by JBL

The sound technology of JBL has been strategically combined with the fitness expertise’s of Under Armour, giving athletes and outdoor enthusiasts alike a perfect wireless headphone for any adventure. Specifically built for workouts and vigorous activity, the UA Wireless Headphones will withstand any abuse you can throw at them.

The durable build of the UA Wireless Headphones combined with the TwistLock technology ensures that these wireless headphones can head out with you no matter what you’re about to overcome. Be it mountains or miles, the UA Wireless Headphones will push you past your limits.

The TwistLock technology is especially helpful in keeping the headphones locked in your ears. That combined with the sweat-proof design means that when you’re at your breaking point, your headphones wont fall out causing you to crash to the ground with them.

Connecting wirelessly to your device via Bluetooth means you’ll never get caught up in your cords again. I seem to have this problem even if I’m walking and I’m clumsy, so I really appreciate the wireless technology. I haven’t had an issue connecting or staying connected, which is a huge bonus. Some wireless devices have a hard time with connectivity. I will say I haven’t tried to leave my phone in one place and travel away from that place with the headphones still connected. If I’m using these headphones I’m almost always in very close proximity to the connected device.

The sound quality is second to none, and you’ll find the same sound quality in these as you would with any other JBL products. You won’t miss a beat with these in and you’ll be even more amped when your favorite tune resonates through your mind unlike ways it ever has before.

I do have unnaturally tiny ears, so when these showed up I disregarded them almost immediately. I didn’t think there was any way that they would fit in my ear. If I did happen to squeeze them in, there wasn’t going to be any way that they would actually stay in. That definitely wasn’t the case and I was very surprised with how well these stayed in. In the box, you also have two different sizes of “enhancers” so you can chose according to your ear size.

I thought it would be annoying to have to charge my headphones, but it really isn’t a big deal. The battery life is ample for anything I’m using them for, as they last up to 8 hours. I’m most excited to test out the UA Wireless Headphones when I’m skiing this winter and that charge time would be plenty for a full day of pow skiing.

The 3-Button Mic/Controller is small enough that it doesn’t get in the way but big enough that it isn’t annoying to use. It is simple and easy and after a few times of use, you’ll have it dialed in. JBL supplies you with not only a charge cord and extra enhancers but also a nice carrying case. The carrying case is a huge bonus, as it will protect your headphones when you throw them in your moto or gym or ski bag.

If you’re looking for a comfortable and durable pair of headphones with unmatched sound quality, look no further than the UA Wireless Headphones Engineered by JBL.   The TwistLock technology will ensure a secure fit so no matter what you find yourself doing, you won’t lose your sound.
