    Wouldn’t Recommend Them At All

    I was only going to give these 1 star but eventually found the correct size (large) ear tips to use after countless tests via the app. Buds don’t feel as if they want to stay in the ear and are about to fall out and get lost, they haven’t yet but I’m not holding my breath. The ear buds just feel to big and heavy to stay in. Overall I feel let down by them and wouldn’t recommend them at all.

    Buds themselves have great sound, noise cancelling and ambient aware work great however, having issues with them not disconnecting when in charging case even when fully charged. The display on the case is not need which could have with longer battery life and more slim case.

    Great but case is lacking.

    I bought this about two months ago and it is great! The sound quality is excellent and the bass is great. The ANC is very good although it sometimes lets loud voices in. My only annoyance is the case. It is very fiddly to unlock and it has many resin features. It would be great to add an option to control Bluetooth connectivity from the case. It would also be great to see the name of the song on the case and even select songs. If you could download songs onto the case I would love it but I imagine there isn’t enough storage. Overall great but room for improvement on the case.

    Love them

    Really happy with my purchase. The ear buds and case are brilliant. The only thing is the case loses a lot of battery quickly. I'm still glad I bought them. Lots of features that make tailoring them to my preference really easy. And they are an excellent size. Not too big and definitely not bulky.

    JBL Live Band 3. full of surprises

    I have high anxiety and needed noise cancelling.i am so impressed with the JBL Live Band 3.the cases setting and the sensitivity of the buds are amazing. They are so comfortable to wear out and in bed. The sound quality is amazing and the lack of complaints from my wife when I need them a bit louder is really appreciated. Worth every penny.

    Great sound, frustrating usage

    I've had these for about a month, and honestly, I'm quite disappointed. They sound great and the noise cancelling works well, but some silly design choices make them frustrating to use. For example, what's the point of the screen on the case? I almost always use them with my phone, so I don’t need a second screen showing information I already have. It feels like a gimmick—and likely drains the case’s battery unnecessarily. It also makes the case bulkier than it needs to be, which makes it awkward to carry in your pocket. On top of that, the buttons on the earbuds are far too sensitive. I’ve lost count of how many times my music has paused just because I accidentally touched one.

    Customizable sound!

    Excellent-sounding earbuds! The sound is full and clear. My favorite feature is that I can put my own photo on the interactive screen. There are other customization features that let me change the sound profile to my preferences. After using them for hours while shopping, the earbuds still showed 82%. They charge quickly, too. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    The case is garbage.

    Charging case is total crap. I can wear the ear buds for an hour slap them back in the case and once charged to 100 percent case now reads it's only 50 percent charged. I don't even use the touch screen cause it just drains the battery even more. I can charge everything to 100 percent and take them with me and go to put them in and the case has drained to 80 percent with not even using them. To say you can get 40 hours out of the case is a lie. Used my buds on and off for about 4 to hours the other day and by the time I went to bed the case was down to 7 percent. I'm assuming this might be a malfunction with the case or are other people experiencing the same thing! I wanna keep them cause they sound amazing, stay in my ear, and love the customized app, but because of the case I will be returning them.

    Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate you bringing this issue to our attention. We're glad to hear you enjoy the earbuds and app. It sounds like you may be experiencing a malfunction with the charging case. We recommend performing a factory reset on your JBL Live Buds 3 by tapping twice on either the left or right earbud, then tapping a third time and holding for 5 seconds. If the issue persists afterward, returning the product is certainly an option. For further assistance, please contact us.

    Best earbuds ever!!!!

    Just got the JBL Live Buds 3 the other day! I’ve been using Apple AirPods Pro 2 and Beats Powerbeats Pro for several years but because of outdated firmware issues with no updates, it has left me with two useless pair of earbuds so I bought these JBL earbuds. I am shocked at how awesome these new buds are compared to Apple and Beats! These JBL’s are 100 times way better than any buds I’ve used! The ANC is top notch and the transparency mode is actually useful for my work environment. Super rich bass with these earbuds and loud and clear. I can’t even max out the volume with these. Apple and Beats both, I had to max out the volume to get the sound levels I needed. These JBL’s are the perfect earbuds for those who spend time in the gym and wear their headphones majority of the day. Very comfy fit and feels like there’s nothing in my ears. If you wear large gauge earrings like me, these are the best fit for your ears too. Don’t sleep on these JBL Live Buds 3! You will be 110% satisfied with their performance! Thank you JBL for the absolute best earbuds I’ve ever had! I am a bit of a headphone snob and I promise you will absolutely love these buds!

    Very clear and fast set up

    I’ve had these ear buds for about a month. I’ve been using for music and watching movies. I’ve found the sound quality is amazing. Great for any types of music I’ve tried lots. Audio is also very clear. They are loud, I did a comparison to another brand and the volume was louder in the other more expensive brand. They were very easy to set up fast. No messing around with apps on phone if you don’t want to. And they work with any brand phone easily. They are controlled by the lovely little case. Also by touching the ear buds. I prefere using the case to control them than my phone. The case is super cool and has many features. I didn’t get to use all the features as so many. It is very fast charging which is great and as JBL have said super long battery life. Noise cancellation is very good. And ambient aware good too. All in all for the price and features that you get I think these air buds are very good. I would definately recommend the brand 2nd pair I have had with JBL and they don’t disapoint.

    JBL Live Buds 3: Budget-Friendly Sound Experienc

    JBL Live Buds 3 offer a solid audio experience at a reasonable price point. These earbuds deliver clear, balanced sound with a slight emphasis on bass, making them suitable for a variety of genres. The battery life is impressive, allowing for multiple days of listening on a single charge. Comfort is a key factor when it comes to earbuds, and the Live Buds 3 don't disappoint. The ergonomic design ensures a snug fit, even during extended wear. The touch controls are intuitive and responsive, making it easy to adjust volume, skip tracks, or activate voice assistants. While the sound quality is generally good, some users may find the bass to be a bit overpowering at times, particularly in bass-heavy tracks. Additionally, the noise cancellation could be more effective, especially in noisy environments. However, considering the price, these are minor drawbacks. I love the case, the screen offers a ton of features and being touch enabled i don't have to pull my phone out to change tracks. Overall, the JBL Live Buds 3 are a great choice for budget-conscious consumers seeking reliable sound quality and comfortable fit. If you're looking for a pair of earbuds that offer good value without breaking the bank, the Live Buds 3 are definitely worth considering.

    Perfect wireless earphones

    JBL is known for its signature sound with punchy bass and clear mids and highs. The Live Buds 3 deliver all the way. Sound is clear and few different options of the bass are perfect for me. Noise Cancellation this JBL wireless earbuds come with Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) technology to help reduce ambient noise - I absolutely love this. This makes huge different when on the train or working out. Battery Life JBL earbuds typically offer decent battery life, both in the earbuds themselves and with the charging case. Expect around 5-8 hours on a single charge, with the case providing additional charges. Comfort and Fit - I prefer this smaller ones as I often listen when in bed. Touch Controls and Voice Assistant Integration .this wireless earbuds come with touch-sensitive controls for playback, volume, and calls. Bluetooth Connectivity- Expect stable Bluetooth connectivity with minimal dropouts.

    I highly recommend it!

    I have been using these earbuds for approximately three weeks and I can confidently assert that the sound quality is truly remarkable. The noise-canceling feature functions flawlessly, effectively blocking out external noise. Although they do not fit perfectly in my ears, I acknowledge that this is due to my personal ear size rather than a flaw in the product. Overall, these are exceptional earbuds and I highly recommend them without any reservations.

    Amazing fit and sound quality

    These buds are modern, stylish and s3iper comfortable.i always struggle to find ear buds to sit well in my small ears, but these are perfecr. I have tested them indoors and outdoors but also during my boxing workout. At no point they fell.off. they are water and sweat proof. The sound is very well-balanced, clear and full-bodied. The box is so easy to use. I can change the volume, bass etc without taking my mobile out. You can also pause the music or change modes between ambient and noise cancelling simply by touching the bud. Battery life is amazing and they charge really quick too. Calls were clear and the people on the other end could hear me well. This was tested indoors and outdoors. 6 built in microphones do the job well.

    Nice one to have!

    If you’re not a huge fan of earbuds because one ear doesn’t quite fit them right, I totally get it. But the JBL Live Buds 3 might still be worth a try. Even with an irregular ear shape, these buds have a lot going for them. The sound quality is pretty impressive—think rich bass and clear highs that can hold their own against some of the big names out there. Plus, the noise cancellation does a great job of keeping out background noise, so you can really get lost in your music. Now, I know the fit can be tricky, especially if one ear is a bit different, but JBL includes a bunch of different ear tips to help you find the right size. It might take a bit of experimenting, but there’s a good chance you’ll find a combo that works. So, even if you’re usually not into earbuds because of fit issues, the JBL Live Buds 3 are still worth considering. They pack in some great features and sound, making them a solid competitor in the wireless earbud game
