  • Good sound quality, Comfortable fit, 8hr battery life, IPX7 waterproof
  • Proprietary charging cable, Expensive
  • The Jaybird Freedom 2 earbuds have been my favorite non-truly wireless earbuds for the past year, but now I have a new favorite and it's the Jaybird X4 earbuds. They fit great, are comfortable, easy to control with the inline controller, and they sound go...

  • Jaybird has become one of the most reliable brands in Bluetooth headphones. The Jaybird X series is extremely popular and for good reason.While we have some quirks about the X4 headphones, primarily around the proprietary charging, these are still great...

  • Abstract:  Back when Jaybird burst onto the scene with its impressive Bluebuds X, the Bluetooth earphone market was pretty barren. There were only a few big-name products available and even those options weren't anything to write home about. With the limited competi...

  • IPX7 build, Playback buttons, Offers most of what X4 offers, but for $30 less
  • Battery life, Less eartip/wingtip options, No carrying case, Cable sinch
  • Though the Jaybird X4 is the better wireless earbuds, it's hard to knock the Tarah's. They offer most of what makes the X4 special, for less money. Unless the few subtle differences between the two are complete deal breakers for you, it's hard to recommen...

  • If I'm honest, I expect to go back to my Powerbeats3 partly because I do prefer the extra bass, but mostly because I find hooks to be more reliable for keeping things in place. Fins can help stop buds from falling out — hooks guarantee it. Unless those c...

  • Excellent, customizable sound, 8 - 10 hours of battery, Fully water-resistant, Great cable management cinch
  • A bit pricey at $130, Proprietary charging clip
  • If you've got $130 to spend and want a pair of earbuds that sound great, have superb battery life, and can withstand just about anything, the X4 is a fantastic purchase. I've been extremely happy with them, and coming over from the old Freedom 2 buds that...

  • Adaptive soundstage, Flexible and lightweight design, Companion app with multiple EQ presets, Secure, tight fit, Waterproof protection
  • Buggy performance, Weak battery life, Uncomfortable to wear during long stretches
  • The Jaybird X4 feels more like a partial update than a full-on enhancement of its elder sibling. It's a step up, but not the vast leap we're accustomed to with every new X release. That's not to say the X4 isn't a dependable pair of wireless sports earpho...
