I place the buds in the charging case and the left earbud charging case light will turn on most times, however the light on the right one rarely does, sometimes if I open and close the case a couple of times it will eventually do it and then all three lights show. There’s no way I’ll go back to those budget ones I used to use.I returned my first pair of Vista 2 but I'm having the same problem with the replacement. These are my earbuds of choice right now – and will be for a while, I reckon.
Jaybird’s X3 earbuds will set you back anything between $197 to $229 in New Zealand, depending on the retailer, but given how well they perform, especially when used at the gym, I don’t think that’s too bad. Of course, I tested the sound purely unscientifically. The sound from the X3s seemed great to my ears, delivering consistent tones whether it was the Smashing Pumpkins and Jeff Buckley or The Prodigy or Disturbed.
Jaybird x3 which is right and left Bluetooth#
Any technophiles smarter than me think he might be right? The X3s use Bluetooth 4.1 while my Samsung Galaxy S7 apparently uses Bluetooth 4.2. My son, who bought a pair of X3s a few months earlier, wondered whether it could be to do with the Bluetooth version on my phone, and I suppose he could be right. I couldn’t fathom it: Often the first couple of minutes were punctuated by songs cutting in an out. For some reason, whenever I used the X3s on my bike, the music would cut in and out, often for multiple seconds at a time, even though my phone was in my cycling jersey’s back pocket that was 2 feet away, at most. On the bike, though, things weren’t so simple. The music dropped out occasionally but generally, it was as solid as a rock. The X3s worked flawlessly at the gym: I’d put my phone in one of the cubicles in the gym area and the connection would be sweet. The control module is about 3cm from the right earbud, and it was the perfect spot for me to access. A female voice tells you how much battery life you have left, which is a nice touch. Like all modern pieces of tech these days, there is also a smartphone app for the X3s which lets you set custom sound scapes and the like, and they connected first time, every time when I turned them on, unlike some other Bluetooth headphones I’ve tried in the past. That said, I did manage to “misplace” one of the silicon ear fins while I was out riding my bike. The ear buds come with a variety of ear tips and ear fins (as well as cord clips so things don’t get tangled up) so you can get the perfect fit. Unlike many other ear buds that I’ve tried, the X3s managed to fit snugly into my ears without falling out. I can see the over ear method ideal for sports like mountain bike or running. I tended to wear them under the ear, using a fin, mainly because that’s how I’m used to wearing earbuds. The beauty of the X3 earbuds is that you can wear them either over the ear (with the cable running behind your ear) or under the ear, just like normal ear buds. Jaybird’s X3s are probably the first set of earbuds that didn’t feel uncomfortable in my ears.
