I ordered about a month ago for 19.99. First one worked for about a week then wouldn't charge so they sent a replacement. The replacement worked twice and would not take a charge.
I wouldn't buy them again even at this price.
A cheap knock off on amazon doesn't cost more than 30 and works way more reliably.
Why does this deal have thumbs up? Can the people who thumbed up comment as to why this is a good deal? From experience this product is subpar and doesn't warrant anyone spending money on these.
I've had other versions of this earbud. Loved them. Disappointed to hear what others have to say about JBL refurb quality. I would have bought 4 of them as a dirt cheap/quality sound solution. I might still buy a couple and possibly play the fool.
The price is good. Just a little cautious about refurbished. Does anyone own those? Did you try refurbished from JBL?
I bought a pair. They lasted a little less than a month. After that, only one ear piece would work and JBL asked me to return them which costs about $8 to do with a 2 week turn around time for the exchange. Won't buy refurbished from JBL again.
I bought these 6 months ago for myself and my wife. I use this every day and I get some complaints from my friends that they cant really hear me well. My wife received the same complaints from her friends as well. Would not recommend.
I use these to listen to music when I go to bed. Comfortable enough for a side sleeper if you rotate the bud 180° from normal position and upgrade to foam tips. Sound quality is acceptable. Battery life is 10 hours. I've had no issues for 9 months, but they were not refurbished. Main complaints are if the neck band isn't positioned just right you can hear it rubbing against ever and it tends to lose connection or get staticy if the band is buried in my pillow.
Had anybody noticed that when you look up the JBL live 220bt it shows you completely different images. Like this is a completely different model than the other 220 BTS. Even if you scroll down on the JBL web page you'll see an ad for red 220s save they are different. They have that neck holder nobody likes save the buttons are on that. This feels like a bait n switch.

Bought JBL refurbished, although it was the Sprint Endurance headphones. They are great for working out. Have had them for 6 months without an issue (still no issues)
