Under Armour JBL Sport Wireless Train

Product Information

For starters, this Sony HT-A5000 soundbar has Dolby Atmos support for immersive sound plus additional features, like 360 spatial sound that adapts to the environment, smart calibration to match your room, and much more. While previously, the Sony HT-A3000 was the best budget option in the series, this price drop should put the HT-A5000 on everyone's radar. This same sweat resistance is evident with the ear cups. The padding around them is breathable, which helps relieve some sweat buildup, plus the pads are removable for easy cleaning. The inside of each cup brandishes either an “L” or “R” so you know which ears they go on. UA Stormproof waterproof technology with an IPX7 rating for water & sweat protection during your workouts

Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions. See how we test. Ambient Aware technology allows you to listen to your music, but still be aware of your surroundings 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. JBL estimates battery life to be roughly 16 hours, but your results will vary with your volume levels. PerformanceI 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. However, as a result of the proficiency of the other presets on offer, this isn’t a dealbreaker; but it does make me wonder how such an oversight could have occurred. After all, Dwayne Johnson’s involvement is all over the box and is the main attraction for anyone after a pair of gym-ready headphones. Rugged, on-ear design, with an IPX4 rating, built to withstand sweat in the toughest gym conditions 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.

I’m pleased that JBL has considered outdoor activities; however, personally I’ve had more use out of the dedicated Ambient mode. There are a couple of options to choose from: Ambient Aware pulls in all external noise to be heard alongside music; TalkThru lowers the volume and hones in on nearby conversations so you can engage in chit-chat without removing the headphones.

Whenever a celebrity gets involved in a piece of tech, I can’t help but wince since it’s usually a warning sign for what’s in store. Will.i.am put his name to a number of bizarre products in the 2010s (does anyone remember the Puls smartwatch?), and who can forget Soulja Boy’s disastrous gaming console? (Clearly most of us have.) The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless earbuds, by comparison, probably have superior audio, but include difficult and imprecise touch controls, when it would have been simpler to remove some from the equation. Songs like Dierks Bentley’s Burning Man or the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ By The Way suggested the Wireless Train were able to avoid getting muddy or cramped. There are better sounding headphones –lots of them in fact — but for workout cans, these were more than sufficient.
