Jaybird slates Freedom, X3 Bluetooth 4.0 athletic headphones for 2016


Jaybird, one of the few noteworthy and quality Bluetooth sport earbud brands, announced two new products to its line-up today, the Jaybird Freedom and Jaybird X3. Both will be available later this year, along with a patent pending app to give you custom sound profiles on each.

With the Freedom, Jaybird is saying that these are their “most advanced” Bluetooth earbuds to date. You have a patented “tapered step-down design” that, along with Comply foam tips and “enhanced comfort” ear fins, ensures a proper a comfortable fit, even with smaller ears.



Jaybird says the Freedom gets up to 8 hours of playback time, which is a combination of a 4-hour charge on the buds and another through a charging clip.

With the new X3, you get earbuds that are a lot like the X2, only in some new colors and what we are assuming are all new quality parts.

The big deal with both, though, is the fact that each pairs with Jaybird’s new MySound app, which allows you to setup custom sound profiles on the headphones that can then be taken to whatever music app you want to listen to. The app will be available on both Android and iOS and will allow you to setup profiles, sync to the headphones, and then take off for your workout or commute.

The Jaybird Freedom runs $199 and will be available in Q2. The new X3 is $149 and will be available in Q3.
