What makes these earbuds unique is they have a detachable noise cancelling microphone that puts the micboom much closer to your mouth which we will test later in this video and compare it with comparable earbuds so you can hear for yourself, stay tuned.

That mic comparison is exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks for being awesome!

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Glad it's what you were looking for! Thanks for watching.

[@ricardojimenez7340]

Thank you!!! This is the review I was looking for! I bought the Jlab and I am very happy! thank you!

[@gS-kt2ff]

Wow I was waiting for this review for so long.

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

What did you think of it?

[@gS-kt2ff]

@@HeadsetAdvisor I currently use an on-ear for office and neckband for home. I was wondering if JLab Work Buds can replace the two. The lack of ANC is a deal breaker 🥺 Mic is good though. I'm not sure why these buds are not popular. I hardly see any reviews online and it's hardly available anywhere.

[@ramratansinghi8661]

I bought this on Trip to Singapore. So far it is Awesome for taking Calls.

[@LegendaryMaoMao20]

Omfg I love this already! It's only day one and you already did a review of it xD👍❤️

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Thank you!

[@BorisGitlin]

Great review! I have several Jlab products, and they are pretty decent for the price. Please review Elevoc products. They have unmatched ENC performance both on their earbuds (Elevoc Clear) and on their headset (Elevoc Link), but I doubt you can still get them though..

[@riez1150]

This is easily the best pick for the true wireless earbuds for calls. Definitely gonna buy it once it is available in my country

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Thanks for watching :)

[@reginelee9100]

Great review!! Can you compare Jlab work buds with Jabra 45? I in i Dilemma which to get.

[@aremdvnasophia]

I use Jlabs Frames for my work calls. I like that I can hear people talk to me while on a call.

[@davidaustin6962]

Thanks for the review! My wife really wants a behind the neck headset with a boom mic with noise reduction, but this might work in the meantime.

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

You're welcome and thanks for watching. It sounds like the Opencomm 2 UC could be anothe to consider kzbin.info/www/bejne/baXQaoN3ipVgoqcsi=1vnmc5RMLWaWLFb5

[@MrJoeryan]

Excellent video

[@decentsimon777]

You're the goat man! What a solid review.. you covered everything! I wasn't expecting such an amazing audio test with various noises in background..lol The JLab work buds did phenomenal in terms of noise cancellation. I wish the compression was more natural.. they make the voice sound tinny.

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Appreciate the support :) whenever microphone noise cancellation is added in any audio device there's a slight sacrifice on the most natural voice quality for the gain of reduced background noise.

[@Pattern_seeker202]

Awesome!!!

[@karstengad6618]

Is there a build in separate microphone in the buds, so that it can be use as headset without the mic bom?

[@karimgeniokarim-genio5086]

superb video man !!! love that pro work !!! to me the best seem to be airpods gen3 !!! yes they let noise inside, but the VOICE is actually very NATURAL !!! JLAB est great but there is compression !

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

There is some truth to that what's been working well for us is if you prefer the sound of airpods is to use a noise cancelling software we are releasing later this year neep.com enter your email for exclusive early acces and a free month of premium.

[@Yushal]

Hi.. I appreciate if you can make a video about extra long range earbuds for TEAMS where I can use it while moving around a bit in the house like kitchen or next room. BLUETOOTH or 2.4Ghz or whatever. Thanks.

[@storqe]

Very surprised by the Poly, I'll be checking those out

[@Atulneeya_Prabodhan]

can you please make a review of Jlab go work POP..

[@pelvishakerg271]

Your tests are hilarious! Jlab wins

[@cameroncameron6800]

Does it have sidetone?

[@leonardovalentin6557]

Unfortunately this is not available in the Philippines. I really wanted one as it is perfect for work + gaming!

[@blakerupert]

Amazing review thank you! How come you chose Airpods vs Airpods pro for this comparison? I'm curious how the Pros compare to the Word Buds

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

In regards to the microphone quality airpods and AirPods Pro are basically identical. Now in regards to speakers they are different but what you heard on the video would be about the results

[@thomasripley7042]

Great review,, do you have to have both ear buds in both ears in order for it to work? Thanks

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

No you do not. Something also to consider is if you need more noise cancellation we are launching a new software soon which will take noise cancellation to the next level. neep.com enter you email to get exclusive early access and 1 month free.

[@raghavasanthapuri1690]

hi superb review but please do a wind noise reduction test, that would be very helpful

[@loconius]

I noticed you can still hear a little bit of the background like the dogs with these and you didn’t get that with the opencomm2

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Good observation yes the Opencomm2 will have a bit better mic.

[@motakfai]

can this earbuds connect to the USB dongle? my company laptop doesn't allow me to use bluetooth, but permit to use dongle for audio connection

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

If you have a generic Bluetooth dongle that can be paired then yes. It doesn’t have an option for a usb dongle from the manufacturer.

[@mathewmunro3770]

I'd like to see a comparison with other ultra-portable boom mic models, with noise cancellation, like the Voyager Legend, and some comparably priced non-boom earbuds with noise cancellation, like the Anker/Soundcore Liberty 4 NC. Comparing it to non-noise cancelling earbuds was a complete waste of time.

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Thank you for your feedback to help us improve

[@AlessandroCometti]

Does anyone know if it's possible to integrate with 3CX to answer or hang up calls via the button? Thanks

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

I haven’t tested it but I don’t believe so since RingCentral and 3CX both utilize HID headset and it doesn’t allow call control. So I’d assume not.

[@nasrymatamoros1748]

Rc only supports poly and jabra😊

[@MrJriBy317]

The Voyager had the loudest voice, but second worst noise canceling next to the airpods. If the voice wasn't so low on the jlabs, it would be more than worth it

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Thanks for watching. Adding neep.com noise canceling software with any headset of choice is the best of both!

[@5minutesseries431]

How do you compare its mic with the Yeilink BH71 and Poly voyager 5200?

[@wamlvb]

Yes, I'd like to know this comparison too

[@michalkollar3536]

Interested too!

[@user-nc2wi1xo7v]

Can I buy my earbuds from you guys for doing all your awesome work

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

We don't sell these earbuds but we appreciate your support! We'll be here in the future though if you ever have a need for a headset we provide.

[@Bruce-js3ci]

Concrete mixer driver here, looking to make calls and listen to music while outside the truck. We must wear a Mips hardhat (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) while outside the truck so a on the ear design (over the ear causes alot of sweat inside the cup on hot days). Plus it has to fit along with the hard hat. Sometimes, while working it gets very loud but i think your blender noise test is probably fairly accurate for most of our noise, at least. Your wind test could use wind speed in MPH for it to be useful for us, say 20mph to simulate being in an open field. Dust and water resistant at least, but proof would be ideal. The Jlab work buds looked promising but the sound is lacking imo. One other thing many of us wear prescription glasses so anything BESIDES our frames over our ears becomes very uncomfortable very quickly. Anything for us?

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Give the Shokz opencomm 2 a look. If background noise is an issue, you can put earplugs in your ears and hear even better.

[@PavanKumar-le4qd]

How is the audio quality compared to boya M1 lav mic

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

We haven’t tested the boya M1 unfortunately

[@BobbyDigital1985]

No mute is a deal breaker. My JBuds Work wireless has tap to mute .. and it works flawlessly

[@brandonr1590]

Damn no mute button smh 🤦🏽‍♂️

amazing! Your purchasing link seems broken though!

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Thank you for sharing that we've updated it now! Here's the link: amzn.to/3O8jcd1

[@michalkollar3536]

Which has better mic quality, JLabs or Shokz Openkomm?

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Hmm not sure Shokz did well in our blind headset study so I’d imagine Shokz just slightly

[@davidaustin6962]

Shokz seemed better during him talking with noise in background (slightly), but no noise gate like Jlab has. When not using mic ib the jlab, the mic is silent regardless of noise. Also the bone conduction on shokz has a significant lack of fidelity.

[@AshleyLacuro-md6vs]

why isn’t my boom mic working at all??

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

That’s a good question. It should just be plug and play. Although we reviewed these buds, we don’t support them so Jlab would be best to contact to see if they can assist.

[@davidbell1181]

If y’all haven’t figured it out yet get rid of the little flag ring for the flush one. This will get rid of 95% of the discomfort. I’m a naughty boy and wear these will drive for 10/12 hrs. Still have very slight discomfort from the body of the bud resting on back of my ear. This is only noticeable when smiling or moving ears. Can not notice it when talking. I don’t like over the head units and didn’t want to buy another Polly Voyager after the last one pretty much disintegrated after 3 years. And seem from everything I’ve seen blue parrots are no good.

[@pauloepaulaalmeidaesuarez4828]

JLab performes best. Poly is a disapointment. I miss Plantronics quality. Came back Plantronics 😢

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Ya agreed JLab did good on the mic performance for sure.

[@someguynj]

This is so true. Bought the Poly Free 60 after years as a loyal Plantronics user... ended up returning them. They were only OK with Teams on PC but horrible with the smartphone, and wanted to fall out of my ears no matter what. Current using the Linkbuds S which are way better than the Free 60, but I'll admin I'm curious to try the Workbuds. Jlab has made some clutch cheap devices over the years.

[@jmaegm]

No anc

[@JackMelqart]

one question, is the certified for microsoft teams just another money grab? i mean for microsoft getting money from the headset makers? which eventually we pay for? or is there a legit reason?

[@HeadsetAdvisor]

Pretty much. Aside from that, Teams certified devices will give you advanced abilities on the computer like being able to answer/end calls from the headset when away from the computer, or seeing that your microphone is muted during a meeting.

[@JackMelqart]

thanks! :)@@HeadsetAdvisor

[@benjaminfranklin414]

in quiet environment, 1) Poly V Free 60, 2) Jlab work buds, 3) apple. most the time I'm in an environment which may have sudden noise. 1) Jlab work bunds, 2) Poly V free 60, 3) apple. the lack of wireless integration of Jlab on buttons to communication app mute and etc is very disappointing. btw, thank you so much for all the simulations, liked typing on keyboard, blender, and etc. they are so valuable.

How many more should we have compared? Seemed like a couple reasonable comparisons to get a baseline performance.
