The editors didn't like

  • Unfortunately the smaller profile means that the X3s now charge with a proprietary charging dock — although the tiny dock still uses micro-USB. While the higher-end Jaybird Freedom range has made this dock double as a portable charging pack
  • The X3's is j
  • Bright sound won't appeal to all
  • Some cheaper rivals sound slightly better
  • Don't lose the charging accessory or you'll have no way to charge the headphone
  • Not as comfortable as the Bose SoundSport Wireless
  • Noise-isolating design may be a safety issue for runners
  • Proprietary charging dock
  • Intermittent signal
  • Could sound cleaner (but at this price that's a minor complaint)
  • Uses unique charger you can't lose
  • Call quality not as good as competitors
  • One-year warranty
  • Initially fiddly to get the right fit
  • Proprietary charging clip

  • Despite launching a full $US50 cheaper than last year's version, the X3 aren't cheap. But for their comfort, better-than-average sound, and bulletproof connectivity they're a meaningful iteration of one of the best Bluetooth earbuds on the market...
