I've been using the JBL Reflect Flow Pros for roughly a year now, having purchased them basically off of this review, because I was specifically looking for good earbuds for the gym. I have used them while weightlifting, running, and working. On the plus side, the noise cancellation is quite good. On the down side: 1. These simply do not stay in my ear properly. I tried every single size of everything included in the box, and the optimal configuration still doesn't stay in properly. Maybe that's the inherent nature of earbuds, or maybe my ear shape is an anomaly amongst our species, but in any case that's been my experience. They stay in for a while if I'm not moving around at all but they always work their way out after a while and need to be pushed back into place. If I'm weightlifting, they slide out after every single set and need to be pushed back into place. Usually they don't fall out onto the ground, but that does happen from time to time. 2. These things cannot stay paired to other devices. They'll just suddenly stop pairing and I'll have to re-pair - and half the time they unpair when I'm right in the middle of listening to something. I would say I've had to re-pair with various devices no less than 50-60 times over the course of the past year. And I kept fully up to date with the firmware. 3. At one point one of them started sounding like buzzy trash. JBL did send me a new pair since they were under warranty. I have had a number of JBL products that I really like. The Charge Essential is a truly excellent portable speaker. Based on my experience overall with these Reflect Flow Pros I would not buy JBL earbuds again, and would personally not recommend this model.

I got the new jbl just yesterday and already used them at the gym. I do 3-4h sessions. I have to say bass is phenomenal, passive noise cancelation is jaw dropping. Dudes literally slamming weights and running on trendmils right next to me and i all i could hear is absolute silence!! Now to the cons, my right ear canal is not symmetrical to my left, had an awful hard time trying to adjust it for a tight fit. Had to twist and twist every 5 mins and that almost bled my ear from the irritation. I did change the elastic parts but i think ill have to experiment with ear tips a bit more. When a perfect fit was achieved sound quality and noise isolation was elevated up to 1000%, but even a tiny gap in the fit less than a millimeter would make a devastating difference. Also pairing is a bit of a pain as i haven't figured out how to adjust volume up and down with gestures, my old huawei mate 10 pro sometimes fails to select the earbuds as output source and takes its time, but also i think it accepts/rejects calls from sim numbers but not calls from messenger/skype and other media. Overall i love these, for the price these are the best but if they don't fit in your ears you are going to have a veeeery hard time enjoying them
@DF-ss5ep Жыл бұрын

They sound quite good tbh, bass isn't too much, highs need to be tamed. Turn off dolby atmos on your phone and the audio/video mode off as well, dolby atmos makes it horrible undefined. If your noise cancellation doesn't work, you don't achive a good fit. It's either your ears or you need to work on how to get them to fit. those wings can be kinda tricky. greetings, certified audio engineer. ps: can confirm, with anc on, zero white noise. with ambient mode and talk thru, there's some but it's ok.

I'm never buying another set of JBL earbuds again. Based on one of CEO's videos (not blaming him) I bought the JBL Reflect Mini earbuds and lived to regret it. They sounded great just like CEO said but came with all sorts of problems. Connectivity was terrible, on the level of the Treblab X5 - they were disconnecting every time I used them. Also after a period of use the software would play up and the touch controls would go off without being touched; and when the software went funny the earbuds couldn't be recharged properly, they had to be factory reset, time and again. One day I was using them in a store and the left earbud just died on me half hour after being fully recharged, so I just calmly threw them, charging case and all, in a trash can! I'd had enough. Anyway, never again. Based on my experience, I say stay away folks.

I paid 50 bucks for them on sale too and even at that price. These headphones suck. Not worth it. Just get something reliable.

Hey, do you know anything about the earbuds not turning ON after manual or automatic sleep&shut down? Apparently, you cannot turn them back ON unless you connect them to charging case. There is a way to shut them down manually by tapping 3 time and HOLDING the button until you ear a sound (must be on your ear for shutdown to work). It will make a sound and shut down and you will not be able to turn them back ON unless you connect them to charging case. This is very annoying and I'm currently in contact with technical support for help, but their answer is "refer to manual". They basically don't even know you can turn them off manualy because when I ask the guy he replied to me that the only way to shut them off is to connect them to charging case, which is false. The 3 tap + hold method is not repertoriate in the manual neither.
