Under Armour JBL Sport Wireless Train

Product Information

This branding isn't too over-the-top and actually blends in nicely to the overall black color of the headphones. Generally speaking, this is a fairly low IP rating for sports-focused audio gear, but on-ear headphones are a bit tougher to make completely waterproof. I wonder why Under Armour and JBL did not use the mesh foam for the entire ear cushion, as we see with the AirPods Max. The biggest hook for the headphones is the sweat resistance, a bigger concern with over-ear rigs than earbuds or even on-ear cans since the cup completely covers part of the wearer's head.

The Project Rock Over-Ear Training Headphones holds on tight, but stays fairly comfortable for over an hour when worn with glasses. You're going to have to be quick with your purchase though, because time may already be running out for some of these offers. It will fit easily in one hand, but is around twice the size of the equivalent carry case for the Apple AirPods, which means it’s not that easy to fit into a pocket – especially during exercise. Athletes who take their workouts seriously and are constantly pushing their physical limits may enjoy the JBL UA True Wireless FLASH X. 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.If you want a set of workout headphones with a lot of dedicated buttons, and a solid connection, try the Under Armour Project Rock. Sound isolation is brilliant, due to the rigid fit of the earbuds, allowing you to hear the audio relatively clearly without outside interruption. Prior to my career in reviewing tech, I worked as an audio engineer—my love of recording audio eventually led me to writing about audio gear. In the effort to make the ear cushions comfortable, UA hasn’t forgotten about hygiene, either; these cushions can be removed and hand-washed. This, combined with the noticeable, yet comfortable pressure of the headband, makes for a very secure fit.

You can imagine my disappointment when I discovered the Project Rock EQ to be the worst option out of all the presets. Orchestral tracks, like the opening scene from John Adams' The Gospel According to the Other Mary, sound a tad beefed-up through the Under Armour Sport Wireless Train—the lower register instrumentation is pushed forward to an unnatural level. The UA True Wireless FLASH X by JBL features a durable pair of earbuds, an aluminum case, and a 12-month premium MapMyRun membership. JBL used a strong plastic as a foundation for the earbuds’ cylindrical shape that protrudes from the ears.The original UA FLASH X still isn’t supported on the app, so this model likely won’t see any firmware updates. When you can hear every instrument, which the suggested EQ adjustment helps attain, you don’t need to turn it up. If you see an offer from these TV deals that you like, you better push through with the purchase immediately.
