Under Armour JBL Sport Wireless Train

Product Information

Pressing the Under Armour logo on the right earcup will drop down your music volume and pipe in surrounding sounds. Audio quality The Wireless Train may not have gotten as deep into the low end as the Adidas were capable of, but they still had solid, refined bass. More importantly, they simply filled out the rest of the frequency spectrum better. The Wireless Train have 40mm drivers with a frequency response range of 16-20,000Hz, and they prove to be exactly as capable as those specifications might suggest. A big issue with the design is that the ear cups are small and, while the padding is soft and breathable, the headphones are still uncomfortable to wear for extended periods. More on this in a bit.

We test every pair of earbuds we review thoroughly over an extended period of time. We use industry standard tests to compare features properly. We’ll always tell you what we find. We never, ever, accept money to review a product. I wish the design felt a bit more substantial; the flimsy feel can be off-putting. You will also likely find that while the pressure on your ears to be uncomfortable, but it goes down after a short time.

Turn your headphones on, and hold the power slider up for three seconds. The headphones will enter pairing mode.

hour battery life with fast charging—Speed Charge gets 2 hours in 5 minutes & fully charged in 2 hours That’s not to say the Wireless Train can’t still be capable headphones — they can. But up against a comparatively brand-new product, it’s going to be an uphill battle for these JBL cans. Design A built-in array of three mics allows for TalkThru mode—tapping the Under Armour logo on the outer panel of the right ear fades out your music and allows you to hear your surroundings without removing the headphones. For voice calls, the mic offers average intelligibility. Using the Voice Memos app on an iPhone 6s, we understood each word we recorded, though there were some typical, fuzzy Bluetooth audio artifacts. The inline mic for the cable delivers solid clarity, with some added bass depth. JBL estimates battery life to be roughly 16 hours, but your results will vary with your volume levels.

On the design front, UA clearly understands the needs of its users, and the only issue I had was a slight looseness around the ears when lying on a workout bench. Athletes should put these earbuds on their lists because they’re extremely durable as proven by the IPX7 rating. Plus, the ear and wing tip combination keeps the earbuds in place during intense exercises.
