They will stay put and let you be aware of surroun
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love using these for workouts and running because I don’t have to readjust them. I simply put them on and I can run listening to music or podcasts while still having awareness of what’s going on around me. They are great for in home as well when cooking and being able to hear my kids. The microphone works for simple conversations.
Also great for people who don’t like earbuds and want light headphones. Not the best for sitting in a high back chair or sofa as the back will hit the headrest.

Perfect for active lifestyle!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What I love about this product is it is perfect for active lifestyle. Even if you're doing high intensity workouts like running on the treadmill, crossfit or plyometrics these headphones stay in place. Unlike earbud type headphones that always need constant adjusting to stay in the ear, these are not like that. Also, even though they don't fit inside the ear, the sound quality is awesome. They are ready to go right out of the box. You will need your own USBC charging cord. They're very easy to sync with your cell phone. But these are perfect for active lifestyle enthusiasts. The other feature I like is that if you're exercising outside in busy areas, since they don't fit in your ears, you can still hear your surroundings and stay aware.

The JBL Endurance Pace is an excellent over ear he
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Endurance pace is comfortable around ears. The controls are easy to access and the microphone is clear on phone calls. The JBL Endurance Pace is very portable and fits snug around the ears. Overall excellent sound and boomy base.

Great outdoor headphones for running or biking!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Endurance Pace were great for my outdoor runs! Even while using them in the rain, they performed great. It let me hear my music but also what was going on around me. Would be perfect to use for biking, too! They were lightweight and comfortable, and held their charge for plenty of hours so I didn’t feel as if I had to keep charging them.

A great real world open ear headset!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL endurance pace are an amazing open ear headset! They very comfortable to wear for a long period of time. The battery life is also terrific. With a short 10 minute charge I’ll have up to four hours of listening to music or watching my favorite shows. With the app, I can use the equalizer to support whatever music I am listening to or show I am watching. Recently we’ve had a lot of winter weather. So when I’m outside cleaning up my vehicles or the walkways, I do not have to worry about them getting wet or closing off the world around me.
I would highly recommend them!

Audio is clear!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These headphones are next to none. I love that they stay in place, wether your walking or jogging. The audio is crisp and clear. I also love that they're not in my ears like the ear buds. The ear buds usually slip out, but not these.

Lightweight yet durable and packed with great feat
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These JBL Endurance Pace open ear headphones are for the person who loves to jam out in any environment yet still be aware of their surroundings! Unlike most headphones, these are IP68 rated and can actually be used in the shallow area of the pool or even the shower. One of my favorite things about the open ear concept for these headphones is that they still pack some punch for the bass heavy songs, and have a decent max volume for the traffic heavy subways, streets, or gym. Connecting and updating the JBL Endurance Pace is super easy thanks to the JBL Headphones App, where you can control the EQ, play nature sounds, and add a sleep timer. If you are not into using an app, the headphones have 3 tactile buttons on the side that are very easy to find and click to change the track, adjust volume, and answer calls. These are a great set of headphones for someone who wants a lightweight yet durable and secure listening experience!

Great alternative choice instead of an in-ear buds
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These headphones are great! Once I added the device to my JBL Headphones app, which was easy to do, I immediately put them to use. The setup was easy, the control buttons are easy to use and remember and the open air design is the best because it allowed me to hear everything while listening to my music. The headphones are also light weight, easy to put on and take off and stays charged for a sufficient amount of time. I wear them when I take my yorkiepoo for a walk or when I go running and they stay put. The sound quality is also excellent. This is a great product.

My New Workout essential!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the JBL Endurance Pace for my outdoor runs and work for a few weeks now, and they have completely changed my relationship with "open-ear" audio. Coming from traditional buds that seal your ear canal, the JBL OpenSound technology was a revelation. I can finally listen to my podcasts and high-energy playlists while still hearing the cyclist coming up behind me or the traffic at intersections. It feels much safer for solo runs.
​The titanium memory wire neckband is the real MVP here. I was worried it might bounce around or feel flimsy, but it’s incredibly lightweight and stays perfectly in place, even during sprints. Plus, the IP68 rating is a massive relief—I’ve been caught in two heavy downpours already, and these didn't skip a beat.
​Also, the 10-hour battery life is solid, though I find myself needing to charge them every couple of days since I use them for both workouts and work calls.
​If you value situational awareness and a secure, "set it and forget it" fit, these are worth every penny!

Workout companion
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found the headphones to be comfortable and fit well around my ears and behind my neck, with crisp clear sound when talking on the phone and good bass when listening to music, which made my workout great. I find the premium design and quality feel of them to be great.The controls were easy to use for me and the JBL app was easy to pair and use effectively. I am excited to have more workouts with these.

Geiles Ding
Der Gerät ist absolut hochwertig verarbeitet, durch die App doppelt gekoppelt hat somit eine stabile verbindung am 10m Umkreis. Der Klang ist überzeugend, obwohl die Treiber nicht im Ohr sitzen, Beeindruckend!!! Die Kopplung geht sehr einfach. Gesprächsqualität soll laut Gesprächspartner auch sehr deutlich sein.
Allen in allem ein sehr guter Deal. Klare Kaufempfehlung wenn man gerne mit Musik im Straßenverkehr unterwegs ist. Umgebungsgeräusche sind bei moderater Lautstärke sehr gut wahrnehmbar

Great zero fatigue headphones
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Endurance Pace is truly in a class of its own! I couldn't even tell that I was wearing them! Zero ear fatigue after wearing them for an hour straight. The sound quality is great except for the lack of booming bass. Which my expectations weren't high considering it's an open air set of headphones. Pairing was a breeze, battery life is excellent, and portability was breeze as they fit easily in your pocket. An overall solid product!

While on vacation with my JBL endurance pace
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] On a super windy day on my vacation, my JBL endurance pace let me relax while watching the day go by. The battery life is just right, I just don’t need anything else on me.
Super recommended

clear sound, secure, and fairly comfy
I like them pretty well. They took some adjusting too at first, i felt like they would slip but no, it was just a different feeling than I'm used to. They're nice and light but eventually do hurt my ears where they hold on but part of that is they're not meant to be worn all day, which is fair. They don't muffle sounds so if that's something you need yea, they don't do that (i have a different set for that). I like having a different option that is more secure but also doesn't squeeze my head. I mostly use them around the house, my other set will sometimes slip off while doing chores and that can be a problem so these are nice. The p65 warning does concern me a but they don't smell so that's good. The audio is really nice and clear, i was a little worried with some calling them bone headphones that there would be some unpleasant vibrations but no. So yea overall i like them, they were packaged nice, all good.

Great audio for outdoor activities.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great if you are into outdoor sports. I’ll have these on while I’m biking, playing flag football, or snowboarding. They’re even great at low volume too. They’re not the most comfortable Under some helmets but that’s to be expected.
In terms of audio, I like how they perform. I would say these are more balanced than flat. I also appreciate that it’s not that punchy so, I’m still able to hear my surroundings.
Great product.

Excellent quality, beautiful sound, very comfortab
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These headphones are great! I love them for many reasons.
The first is the sound quality. JBL absolutely nailed it, as per usual. Clean highs and excellent bass.
I also find them extremely comfortable. I have a hard time with traditional ear buds. Since these don’t require a fit inside the ear, they don’t hurt or bother my ears at all. I can wear (and have worn) them all day.
They’re definitely geared toward use during exercise. They stay put when jumping, jogging, etc. But they also work great when working in the shop, lounging around the house, etc.
Battery life is solid. I pretty easily get 6-8 hours, sometimes more, depending on listening volume.
I only have one gripe. I almost always have some form of glasses on my face. Prescription eyeglasses, sunglasses, or safety glasses. At least for me, the headphones and glasses do not fit together well. Either the headphones get pushed out or the glasses get pushed up. But a minor inconvenience considering the many pros of these headphones.

Great option for activity headphones if you want g
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have no experience with the conduction style headphones, so I can't compare to them, but these sound really good. And for being open ear, I was surprised how isolated I still felt from outside noise. Not for a car driving by, but for lower noises around you. They fit very snug on your head and do not feel at all like they would fall off at all, under any activity. The right side goes perfectly intothe correct spot in my ear but the right kind of doesnt. Probably my head non-symmetry but it doesnt feel like there is anything you can do about it. They paired normally to phone but in order to work with the app it for some reason created a second Bluetooth pairing and device in my list, which looks like a tablet or TV amd not headphones. I dont understand or prefer that.

Comfortable, Tough, and Made to Move
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the JBL Endurance Pace for workouts and daily walks, and overall they’ve been a solid experience. The open-ear design is very comfortable and lets me stay aware of my surroundings, which I really like when running outside. The neckband stays secure even during intense sessions.
Sound quality is decent for open-ear earbuds — not heavy on bass, but clear enough for music, podcasts, and calls. Call quality is better than expected, and battery life easily lasts multiple workouts. Quick charging is a nice bonus, and the IP68 rating gives confidence in sweat and rain.
Pros:
✔ Comfortable open-ear fit
✔ Great for outdoor awareness
✔ Solid call quality
✔ Decent battery + fast charge
✔ Very sweat/water resistant
Cons:
✘ Not much bass
✘ Not true wireless
✘ Battery life is okay, not exceptional
If you want workout-focused earbuds that prioritize comfort and safety over immersive bass, these are worth it.

Good battery life and sound quality
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sounds is good also easy to hear stuff that is happening around you. Battery life is good, paired with quick charging even on the slow chargers.
The only downside I had was after a while they started to hurt my ears.

Great design, ok sound…
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the JBL Endurance Pace for about a month or two now. The fit and design is a 10/10 for me! No matter what I’m doing or how vigorous the activity is, it always stays on my head! The feel and design is great as well! The headphones are encased in a high quality rubber material and all electronics are enclosed and made water resistant. The battery is good enough for multiple workouts which works for me.
The controls are easy to use and the buttons on the side are accessible and simple to click. The design of these headphones make them super flexible. I am able to just throw them in my gym bag and go.
The only downside of these headphones is the sound…the fact that the speakers sit on top of your ear cause the bass to come up short. Many songs that hit hard are simply just a lot of treble and mids.
If you’re looking for headphone that allows you to hear music and your surroundings, these would be a great addition to your gym bag.

Great sound, but…
These would easily earn 5 stars with me except for the fact that they barely reach past the top of my ears. The band behind your head is too short for the ear bud to reach into my ears; resting in front of, sacrificing the majority of the rich sound I know they’re capable of. I can place them inside my earlobes to get the best possible sound but then I get weird looks from people. It’s almost like these were meant to be a Junior size. Love the sound, the bass, ease of charging and syncing up with the JBL app. If only they fit better.

Poor design
Poor design - don’t particularly sit well on or around your ear. Not loud enough when you have a car or two nearby, useless at the gym. Unless it’s very quiet in surroundings, due to poor fit you’ll max the volume and still barely hear it. Wish I could take them back.
