Once upon a time, wireless music streaming quality outweighed any convenience of cutting a cable, but the JayBirds Bluebuds X sound superb, with full rich sound.Their build quality too is superb: they’re as comfortable and durable as they are striking, and they sit comfortably on your neck while you run, and never threaten to fall out when you
In-ear headphones are as divisive as a jar of Marmite with a sword: before splashing out on a pair like these you’ll want to make sure they’re your (skull’s) cup of tea. If they don’t fit perfectly you’ll want to consider a return too: if they’re not a precise fit you’ll notice when it comes to sound quality.It’s the cost that’s the biggest sticking point however.
