Bought for my son who insists these are excellent buds. Price will revert to $125 as of midnight tonight, still much cheaper than JB Hifi who has them for $199.

Dohhhhh! Good pick up and hope others pick up what I missed.
I'm getting $113.40? Ahh… only for white and green
For anybody who had the X2's…are these worth the upgrade?
Haven't had the X2, but bought these a couple of months back. Great earphones, beautiful sound, battery lasts me 6-8 hours easily on a single charge.
Six is a bit optimistic.
Thanks Wuddie.
is there an issue with warranty from buying it from dwi?
These are great.
Anyone knows where I could get an extra USB charger? I lost mine.They have an online store where you can buy a new 'accessory' set for the X3's…it comes with a complete new set of tips, wings and charger. I asked Jaybird the same question last month lol.
I bought these few weeks ago from jb for 179.
Great sound, adjustable sound through Jaybird app is really cool, very comfortable in ears too.
Everybody raves on about these headphones. In my honest opinion, you can give them a miss.
Out of the box, they come tuned awfully, with loose bass and out of control treble. Moreover, no matter what you do in the app, the drivers in here simply cannot handle the top end of the volume knob. Distortion is a euphemism for what occurs when you do that. To make matters worse, the fit just didn't fit a person with small ears like me. So if you find yourself usually reaching for the smaller ear tips, you will have issues here. The 'shark fin' that Bose does so well is also stiff and uncomfortable here, it will keep them in place though, so there's your bonus.
I have had these for 4 months and while I do not regret the purchase, I can tell you that they are way overhyped. Today, I did a side by side test with in ears from Bose, Sennheiser, AKG, JBL, and these were by far the worst. Not only in terms of sound but also in terms of comfort.
Would I recommend these? Maybe. First, ask yourself if you truly need wireless in the first place. If you do, then I strongly urge you to shop for a higher end set such as the Bose Soundsport Wireless. If you don't, save the money and buy a good wired pair of headphones such as the Sennheiser Momentum which are on clearance at Harvey Norman right now. However, there are pros. build quality is excellent. I have used in rain and no problem. Comfort tips are included and provide a great seal if they fit you right. Carrying case, while simple is also sleek. In-line remote is solid (although the mic isn't great, it's doable).
Lastly, that 8 hr battery life is a joke. You'll be lucky to get 5 at ~70% volume.
Just my 2 cents (and you know… my ranting too).
70% volume is super loud for me - I usually only have it up to 30-40%.
I'll share my opinion on this, as someone who also has small ears. I use the smallest ear tips with the smallest fins, and I can confidently say these are the most comfortable pair of earphones I've ever used. I use these in the over-the-ear configuration and it honestly feels like they're not even there.
Can't comment on sound quality comparisons as I've never tried any other wireless earphones, but to me they sound decent.
Hey, glad to hear they fit you so well. Perhaps it's to do with the over ear configuration.
I personally wear them normally since I also use glasses and do not enjoy having to do the re-shuffle whenever I wish to use both at the same time. Having tried them just to check though, I will concur that they are more comfortable to wear over-ear than otherwise for me also, so maybe that's the big takeaway.
Lastly, it's good that you're happy with the sound. Don't listen to anyone else in that regard, we all have our own standards, likes and dislikes.
I read a few reviews comparing these to other similar, and both recommended JLAB Epic 2's:

$92 delivered on eBay… thinking about pulling the tigger but not sure about the lack of Comply tips.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-JLAB-Epic2-Wireless-Headset-B…I couldn't really help you with your decision but in my experience, the comply tips are great if you can get them to stay in your ear. For me, my small ears simply meant that they became more of a bother as they felt awkwardly snug. Your mileage may vary but I wouldn't let their absence sway you one way or the other.
How would these compare to the Powereats Wireless 3??
