Design
The fit of the earbuds.
The first number of the IP rating refers to protection against dust, while the second number refers to protection against liquid. E.g. a first number of 6 denotes that it is completely dustproof, and a second number of 7 denotes that the device can withstand full immersion in water.
The level of water resistance that the device has.
We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry. A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products.
True wireless devices have no cables connecting any part of the device together. This is an important distinction as some wireless earbuds have cables connecting the two earbuds together.
Neckband earbuds are connected by a flexible band that rests around the neck. With built-in controls on the neckband and longer battery life, they offer convenience and are less likely to be misplaced compared to traditional earbuds.
These earbuds come with wingtips that can be attached for a more secure fit. Wingtips come in handy for sports and other physical activities. When used correctly, they prevent the earbuds from falling off.

The rubber adhesive wears out

After a while the rubber adhesive starts to wear out and they become unbearably uncomfortable. Then the sound quality drops significantly. On Android they require you to connect to the JBL app but they are not registered on the JBL so you miss out on some of its features. You can't control the volume on the buds. You will love them when they are new but after a while they start being frustrating. The Bluetooth range is incredible though.

Great at first, but the quality decreases quickly

I have two pairs of these earbuds one is about 2 years old and the other is about 1 year old. These are okay earbuds, I wouldn't recommend them if you can find others priced similarly. The sound quality was fine although I seemed to have a lot of microphone issues, especially when I was on phone calls. One earbud seemed to be warped from the beginning, and never fit into my ear properly. I filled out a form on the JBL website (within the first year of purchasing), with photos but only got automated messages back. Eventually the rubber part around the plastic earpiece, on both sets, warped so much that the earbuds no longer fit into my ears at all. I tried pulling off the rubber, and they don't fit that way anymore either. Also, only one of the earbuds from 2 years ago will charge. The other will light up briefly when placed in the charging case but doesn't ever charge. It is a shame that the shell of these earbuds doesn't hold up, as the case seems to be in perfect condition and the sound quality (on the charging earbuds) is still quite good.
