I am never buying a JLAB product, ever again. (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

After a year of using JLAB JBuds Air ANC, I am done with the company and their trash products. I have wasted 60 Euros on this piece of garbage, just for them to constantly unpair, not charge, be massive with the sound not being good enough to excuse their size.

I am currently trying to exchange them in Alza for a cheaper JBL product.

If you think about buying any JLAB product, try to find a cheaper or even a more expensive alternative.

My horror experience with these pieces of plastic garbage make me wanna chuck them into a river.

I was under the impression that entry level BT headphones start at €100, anything under and you get more value by burning your cash. You can find decent wired ones though depending on what you need

Dunno. Bose QC line is setting your cash on fire in an open sewage pit while nailing your feet to a decaying animal carcass

Unless you're talking specifically about their QC earbuds line, like the qc30, then you may be mistaken.

I'll be the first person to shit on Bose (no highs no lows, that's Bose), but their ANC sets the bar. I've owned a pair of QC45's for nearly 10 years and they work like new.

I bought either the QC25 or QC35 from Bose for a flight. I returned them before I even went on the trip. Contrary to your experience, I had all treble but no mid or bass. I replaced them with WH1000XM2.

The second time I tried Bose was their ANC buds. I don’t recall what model it was, but there was a 1-2 second lag watching YouTube that no other manufacturer had

I will not touch another pair of Bose

I have these buds and don't have any of the issues you have - perhaps you got a bad set? Granted they are a little bulky I guess, they are the first wireless earbuds I've owned so don't have a lot to compare them to. I use them daily and have found them great, don't regret buying them at all
