I am using my Mother’s Day gift today and getting a manicure and a pedicure.  My poor feet are in dire need of some pampering!  We are going to a wedding this weekend so it is the perfect time. 

Disclaimer:  I was not asked to do this review by the company.  I just want to share my thoughts on the product.

Jay Bird Blue Buds X

If you read my blog you know that a little over a month ago after entering their daily giveaway for quite a while, I won some Jay Bird Blue Bud X bluetooth earbuds.

What I say:

Let me start with the basics.  The earbuds were easy to set-up. The instructions were very clear.  You receive three different size ear tips to choose from and three different size ear cushions.

There are two ways to wear the ear buds over or under the ear.  I opted for over the ear because that fit is more comfortable for me when running.

You are also given two cord management clips.  These clip onto the cord that connects the right and left earbud to reduce the slack on the cord so that the cord is tight to your head. 

Once I had the correct sizes I easily paired it with my phone and tried them out.  The sound quality was great!

I have used them in multiple situations, for cleaning, walking the dog, strength training and running. 

What I love most about them is that they DO NOT move.  Once they are in my ear they stay there.  Typically throughout a run I find myself pushing my ear buds back into my ear.  I have never had to readjust the Blue Buds. This is one of my favorite things about them.

I also love that they are Blue Tooth.  I like being more mobile and not knocking the cord connected to my phone.  Is the cord a huge nuisance, no, but it is nice to be able to stow my phone where ever and not have to always use my armband.  I like when I am doing my strength workouts that I can hear my music and leave my phone on the table or run on the treadmill with out the cord attached.

I truly love these ear buds and am so happy that I won them.

Jay Bird’s customer service department is fantastic and were very helpful with all of my questions.

The only sticking point for these, which is why I entered the daily giveaway is the price.

The cost for these is $170. 

That is a steep cost,I am not going to lie which is why I hadn’t bought them.  My budget did not allow for the cost.  However, for the $170 you get a fantastic pair of ear buds with great sound quality, sweatproof, and a great fit.  They also come with a lifetime sweatproof warranty.
