JBL Endurance Jump: A perfect workout pal

- AARON ALMEIDA

JBL yesterday launched its newest line- up of Endurance series of earphones that cater to different activities. If you are a gym rat that is into various activities such as callisthen­ics, crossfit or any other workout, JBL has a product for you in the form of the JBL Endurance Jump.

Available in a variety of colours, the earphones are large with a unique design and screams for attention. The earphones are constructe­d entirely using rubber and plastic and even though these materials are used, they don’t look or feel cheap or tacky.

With the Jump, JBL has added a thicker cable that has a snug fit around the neck.

Being in- canal earphones, the Jump is designed in a way to ensure ambient noises do not seep in and the earbuds do a brilliant job of blocking ambient noise. The Jump comes with PowerHook design and is a great addition as it automatica­lly turns the power on or off while wearing or removing the earphones. The earphones also come with an IPX7 certificat­ion and can be dipped into water up to 1m for 30 minutes without being destroyed. The right earpiece has all the controls and features touch controls for AVRCP controls — no in- line remote module here. The lightweigh­t constructi­on makes them comfortabl­e enough to use for long periods of time without experienci­ng any fatigue.

The Jump is an absolute pleasure to use. They offer a neutral balance with the bass offering the ideal amount of impact and extension without being overbearin­g or enhanced. The mids are great as well and don’t feel overwhelme­d by the bass or the highs. Battery life is rated at 8hrs and it supports fast charging as well.

The JBL Endurance Jump is priced at ` 4,799 and they are a perfect pair of earphones for any workout as they provide great noise isolation that helps in concentrat­ion along with a tonal balance that betrays its cheap price tag.
