JBL  Endurance Pace Open-Ear Sport Headphones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have no experience with the conduction style headphones, so I can't compare to them, but these sound really good. And for being open ear, I was surprised how isolated I still felt from outside noise. Not for a car driving by, but for lower noises around you. They fit very snug on your head and do not feel at all like they would fall off at all, under any activity. The right side goes perfectly intothe correct spot in my ear but the right kind of doesnt. Probably my head non-symmetry but it doesnt feel like there is anything you can do about it. They paired normally to phone but in order to work with the app it for some reason created a second Bluetooth pairing and device in my list, which looks like a tablet or TV amd not headphones. I dont understand or prefer that.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These JBL Endurance Pace open ear headphones are for the person who loves to jam out in any environment yet still be aware of their surroundings! Unlike most headphones, these are IP68 rated and can actually be used in the shallow area of the pool or even the shower. One of my favorite things about the open ear concept for these headphones is that they still pack some punch for the bass heavy songs, and have a decent max volume for the traffic heavy subways, streets, or gym. Connecting and updating the JBL Endurance Pace is super easy thanks to the JBL Headphones App, where you can control the EQ, play nature sounds, and add a sleep timer. If you are not into using an app, the headphones have 3 tactile buttons on the side that are very easy to find and click to change the track, adjust volume, and answer calls. These are a great set of headphones for someone who wants a lightweight yet durable and secure listening experience!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL endurance pace are an amazing open ear headset! They very comfortable to wear for a long period of time. The battery life is also terrific. With a short 10 minute charge I’ll have up to four hours of listening to music or watching my favorite shows. With the app, I can use the equalizer to support whatever music I am listening to or show I am watching. Recently we’ve had a lot of winter weather. So when I’m outside cleaning up my vehicles or the walkways, I do not have to worry about them getting wet or closing off the world around me. I would highly recommend them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Endurance Pace is truly in a class of its own! I couldn't even tell that I was wearing them! Zero ear fatigue after wearing them for an hour straight. The sound quality is great except for the lack of booming bass. Which my expectations weren't high considering it's an open air set of headphones. Pairing was a breeze, battery life is excellent, and portability was breeze as they fit easily in your pocket. An overall solid product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found the headphones to be comfortable and fit well around my ears and behind my neck, with crisp clear sound when talking on the phone and good bass when listening to music, which made my workout great. I find the premium design and quality feel of them to be great.The controls were easy to use for me and the JBL app was easy to pair and use effectively. I am excited to have more workouts with these.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the JBL Endurance Pace for workouts and daily walks, and overall they’ve been a solid experience. The open-ear design is very comfortable and lets me stay aware of my surroundings, which I really like when running outside. The neckband stays secure even during intense sessions. Sound quality is decent for open-ear earbuds — not heavy on bass, but clear enough for music, podcasts, and calls. Call quality is better than expected, and battery life easily lasts multiple workouts. Quick charging is a nice bonus, and the IP68 rating gives confidence in sweat and rain. Pros: ✔ Comfortable open-ear fit ✔ Great for outdoor awareness ✔ Solid call quality ✔ Decent battery + fast charge ✔ Very sweat/water resistant Cons: ✘ Not much bass ✘ Not true wireless ✘ Battery life is okay, not exceptional If you want workout-focused earbuds that prioritize comfort and safety over immersive bass, these are worth it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the JBL Endurance Pace for my outdoor runs and work for a few weeks now, and they have completely changed my relationship with "open-ear" audio. Coming from traditional buds that seal your ear canal, the JBL OpenSound technology was a revelation. I can finally listen to my podcasts and high-energy playlists while still hearing the cyclist coming up behind me or the traffic at intersections. It feels much safer for solo runs. ​The titanium memory wire neckband is the real MVP here. I was worried it might bounce around or feel flimsy, but it’s incredibly lightweight and stays perfectly in place, even during sprints. Plus, the IP68 rating is a massive relief—I’ve been caught in two heavy downpours already, and these didn't skip a beat. ​Also, the 10-hour battery life is solid, though I find myself needing to charge them every couple of days since I use them for both workouts and work calls. ​If you value situational awareness and a secure, "set it and forget it" fit, these are worth every penny!

I have to admit, when I first saw these open-ear headphones, I was skeptical—they looked a bit weird! However, my doubts vanished in a few minutes, after trying them on. The design that hooks behind the ears and neck is very good and comfortable that I almost forgot I was wearing them. The fit is incredibly secure, yet so light that I can barely feel them. The sound quality is very good, but the real benefit is the open design: it's possible to hear the audio while maintaining full awareness of our surroundings. Of course the sound isn't so immersive as the tradicional earphones, but this is absolutely perfect for running outdoors, especially in a busy city environment. I also like the waterproof IP68, meaning that I can use them even in the rain with no worries. They are comfortable, easy to use, and brilliantly keep your ears open to the environment around you. A must-have for active users!
