Pros and cons
According to our earbuds expert
- Thanks to the touchscreen smart case, you can control the earbuds without using your phone.
- With Hi-Res audio, you can hear more detail in your music, like drums.
- Even when it's windy, you can have clear phone calls thanks to the 6 built-in microphones.
- The noise canceling of earbuds is less strong than that of headphones.
Description

You can adjust the volume or you can skip songs without using your phone. The earbuds have Hi-Res audio. These audio files are larger than MP3 files, so you can hear more detail. This way, bass lines sounds more intense. With the earbuds, you make phone calls with clear sound. They have 6 built-in microphones, so even with harsh winds you're clearly audible. Thanks to active noise canceling, you hear less of your surroundings. You'll be fully immersed in your favorite music.

very comfortable earphones
- high wearing comfort
- low weight
- box that is lucky
I am very surprised by the excellent quality of these jbl Livebuds 3. Until now I was addicted to the premium earphones from Sony but it is clear to me that these earphones are in many ways not inferior to the Sony's. As far as wearing comfort is concerned I have to say that they are very comfortable due to their limited weight and good earplugs (different sizes are provided). The presence of the screen on the box is also very pleasant to quickly change some settings. You can also connect these earphones to multiple devices at the same time (it took me a while to find out how to do this - not really intuitive) which is quite handy and the sound quality is, as you would expect from JBL, excellent. If I have to give some negative points, this will mainly be about the size of the accompanying charging box which is large, in addition the noise canceling is very good, but certainly not super. In short, within the medium high range, excellent earphones.

Very happy with it
- Good sound
- Nice to personalize
- Nice noise cancelling
I am very happy with my JBL Live Buds 3. They have a good sound quality and can be loud enough (but not too loud that you immediately get hearing damage). You can adjust the settings via the case. This makes it easy to set the earplugs to your personal preference, without having to use your smartphone every time. At first I thought this would be very complicated, but that is not the case at all!
In addition, the noise cancelling is really effective. In busy environments such as public transport or in the office, the earplugs filter out ambient noise well, so that you can fully concentrate on your music or work. I find the ambient noise function very useful on the bike. This means that I am not surprised by a car passing by.
Another plus is the robustness of these earplugs. They have fallen once, but there was not a single scratch to be seen. For the clumsy people among us, this is a good sign: they are sturdy enough to withstand a knock! Despite being pricey I think they are worth the money, these are Buds that I think I can enjoy for a long time to come.

Disappointment
- Good sound
- Handy storage box with touchscreen
- Long playtime and fast charging
- Noise canceling is downright bad
The earbuds are beautifully designed and fit well because of the different sized caps that are included. The storage box is handy because of the touchscreen screen, so you don't necessarily have to use the app.
The battery of the storage box lasts a long time, just like the earbuds. The sound of the earbuds is very good.
But, what was the most important reason for me to buy these earbuds: Noise cancelling, so switching off ambient noise. And these JBL livebuds are supposed to have a good and extensive noise cancelling function. However, it is downright bad. Even with the audio compensation filter that would adjust the noise cancelling to your ear canal and the adaptive control at maximum (so no ambient noise), I hear all ambient noise right through my music. Very annoying and a waste of these quite expensive earbuds... I expected more from them. My old (and cheaper) Sony Linkbuds were a lot better. Hopefully, JBL will make further improvements with updates so that it is not a complete waste of money.
