  • Good as the x3?

  • +1

    Different, shorter battery life but has a charging clip which extends it, much smaller in size. Both have to charge through a charging clip, X3's charging clip does not have its own battery, although the X3 has a much longer battery life.

    Great price, although JB matched Amazon (incl delivery) at about $149 for my X3's so worth an ask if you're thinking X3's

    Great battery life on the X3's, word is the Freedoms ~ 3 or 4 hours, X3's 6-8 hours.

    • Wait isn't Amazon American. How are they able to match AUD against USD

      • So for me I showed the JB staff member my order (which shows in $AU and includes delivery), it was AU$143.23 or something and JB said would $150 be ok, I said yep and cancelled the Amazon order!

        • Would you mind posting an image of the receipt for the X3s so that I can show it to them instore? I think due to the exchange rate the cost from Amazon has risen a bit.

  • In ear "headphones"

      Canalphones.

    I've been using these for a few months. Great bluetooth headphone. Small size, decent sound, decent battery.

    These are nice and compact, but really uncomfortable. Read reviews before purchase.

    • Getting the right fit is CRITICAL.

      • Wrong fit and they'll sound garbage
      • Wrong fit and they'll fall out
      • Wrong fit and they'll be uncomfortable

      I find with the Comply foam tips (included), they are super comfy and with the neck cord adjusted right and using my upside-down around ear method I can hardly tell they are there!

      • Good call though, read reviews before taking the plunge.

        I run the same setup; around the neck and over the ear with comply tips. Fits perfectly.

      • Yes. I agree.

        I am just really fussy and have weird ears!

        Oh, and I am an in-ear headphone whore. ;)

      • All the foam tips that came with my X2s split shortly after I started wearing them.

        Disappointing considering I only use them once or twice a week - if I'm not feeling lazy!

        • Ones that came with the X3's are still going solid after daily use for 4 months.

          Try compressible ear plugs, they only cost $1 and you can get two sets out of a pack. I used to use them on my BlueBuds, not pretty but effective.

        • @hoxygt:

          Thanks, I may have to as I'm struggling with the ones I'm using. I assume eBay for the ones your referring to?

        • @cheepo:

          I use something like these - https://www.bunnings.com.au/3m-safety-class-3-disposable-21d…

          Cut em in half, pierce the centre. Stretch the centre bit over the ear bit and wait for the compression to re-expand the foam - then they're good to go in ya ears :)

          You might find they provide more isolation than the genuine comply ones so be wary on the road and so on :)

          @hoxygt:

          I definately wouldn't have thought of that and assumed buying pre-made ones was very the only option. Learnt something new today!

          Thanks for the tip.

  • damn I missed out
