Hi Guys,

I am looking out to buy a Bluetooth, wireless earbuds something which has heavy BASS and are good to listen to music also and watch videos. I have shortlisted 3 products, can anyone share their experience if he or she has any experience out of these three products:

1. Jam Ultra Truly Wireless
2. Sol Republic Amps Air
3. JBL Free
 
Anything from Bose has great sound quality and bass.

Bose soundsport free

Bose Soundsport free are so obnoxiously big it look and feels as if someone's ear has swollen and he is using a hearing aid. They are clunky and huge !!

They certainly are big and look weird. Other than that I love my Bose soundsport free’s. Amazing sound, comfortable, secure fit, water and sweat resistant, good build quality, good battery life, easy to use, onboard music controls, etc, etc. Most of the wireless earbuds have a weird look to them.

I mean....I guess headphones are a fashion statement now.

I have the soundsports free as well. I have tried the majority of the heavy hitter truly wireless earbuds (included the airpods). I always returned them and went back to my jaybird x3s (great headphones).

The soundsport frees sound better, have a better connection, etc. They are the best sounding truly wireless heaphones out, even better than the new jabra elite 65t.
If you are super worried about how "cool" you look with headphones...maybe you should get a pair of gold beats? Honestly, who cares? Maybe it is because I am almost 30 years old, but i don't care. I constantly am listening to music at work (I am a molecular biologist), the gym, or running outside. Secure fit, battery and sound is all that matters to me. The sound sports excel in all three.

If you want something that "looks" better, than you should go with the new jabra elite 65t.

The three you listed above are not worth the money. If you want favorable opinions on them, check out their respective reddit forums.

Beats X are pretty great.

It is not an ear buds per say, despite being wireless and bluetooth it has some cables, but it is not like a bud you would put in your ear. I am looking out for something like that.
 
If you like heavy bass look to Beats X or the Jaybird X2s. Not the most accurate sound signature, but they will give you plenty of bass. Beats X have the same chip AirPods have so they integrate with all Apple products really well. the Jaybirds are a little more comfortable in my opinion, but I would not recommend them for videos/movies as there are latency issues sometimes.
