I bought these on Amazon a few weeks ago and immediately returned them. They are junk. If you adjust either ear you get static for a couple seconds.

Nope, you just got a bad pair.

I've purchased 10 of these over the last several months for family/friends and none of us have this issue.

You won't find a better $40 pair of wireless earbuds out there

I purchased a pair of the refurbs last time they hit on here and I was also pretty disappointed. They constantly fall out (which I realize could be specific to me but never had it happen before) and they have charging issues. The charging issues are pretty well documented on the interwebs

I agree. This is my all time favorite one for my work calls. I also use 75e if I'm around with my kids, that one has a better ANC mic (one caveat it doesn't cancel kids voices, but amazingly cancels TV sound)

Very decent earbuds. I ordered a pair of refurbished on eBay (sold by Jabra) and received a pair of brand new in original sealed box.

Yours were defective. These blow everything in the price range out of the water. These are 100+ normal price.

Mine have been going strong for a year. Even dropped them in the pool twice. No issues besides slight hiss in the left ear max volume.

They are acceptable. I would recommend not using wireless earbuds if you can help it. There can be a delay and I think two way communication over bluetooth can degrade quality. Also microphone placement (on your ear) isn't ideal.

They don't have a mute button. Even if you install the Jabra app, you can't customize mute functionality for this model.

does this connect to multi-device simultaneously?

FYI bought 3 pairs of these refurbs via Jabra's ebay site and they took forever to arrive, and when they did all 3 pairs are defective...

I suspect they take back returns (why do they have so many?), clean them up, then send them back out as "refurbished" without even testing.

Before someone says I just don't have them setup properly, they all are defective in different ways...one the left side doesn't power on, the other two the right side won't. Since I have 3 sets I've tried intermixing the charging cases in case it was them, but it's the buds themselves that are bad.

Also saw this on Jabra's official eBay storefront (certified refurbished). $39.99, but it gave me a 10% off coupon so I got it for $35.99 before tax. (No idea if the coupon is YMMV or not, I just know it was included alongside the listing)

Just ordered another pair after losing the first one (bought from Target refurb $45). They are great for the price. The biggest limitation is the battery life is kinda suspect but it connects flawlessly to my Apple products: Apple Watch, iPhone X, iPad.

I got 2 sets of these 2 years or so ago. I'm a huge fan of them.
