Jaybird changes the music game and squashes the competition with the new Freedom wireless metal buds which deliver cutting-edge sound and cool customization, all in a smart and sleek design. The Freedom’s will make your active enthusiast, athlete and techie jump for joy because of its awesome and advanced features:
Smart-and-sleek design– the Freedom’s are uniquely and innovatively engineered with an all-metal housing that’s sleek, durable, and highly sophisticated. Plus, Jaybird has reinvented the earbud by designing the buds to be sweat-proof and smaller in size but giant in sound, delivering a micro-sized design that sits flush and feels featherlight but produces powerful sound
Clever and stay-put fit– the Freedom’s deliver a secure and custom fit that’s super-comfy thanks to their amazing and versatile ear-fit system that can be worn over and under the ears for a sleek and stay-put fit—and allowing personalization for an optimal listening experience. Plus, the Freedom’s also come with a variety of customized fit-options including: 1) Three sizes of Comply premium sport foam ear tips which mold to the ear canal to seal in the sound and provide a custom, comfy and stay-put fit so your athlete can play hard while enjoying supreme sound, 2) Ergonomically-designed sport ear fins in three sizes (S, M, and L) to boost comfort and further lock the buds in place, 3) Three pairs of silicone ear tips which provide a softer, easier fit that’s secure, and 4) Two cord Management Clips and a Cord Clip which is fantastic for runners to effortlessly shorten the cord and keep it nice and snug
Top-performing and custom features– the Freedom’s not only reign supreme in sound but also allow your workout warrior or techie to customize the sound according to their listening preferences and style of music thanks to Jaybird’s awesome MySound App that allows full control to choose the preferred EQ settings and then saves the customized presets. There are also several cool sound profiles from athletes or artists and how they like to listen to their tunes. The Freedom’s also feature a tiny but top-performing controller and voice prompt to easily and clearly notify when powering on, pairing, or shutting off—and conveniently announce the battery life when powering on and when pressing the volume buttons so your gym addict never has to estimate how much playing time is left. Plus, there’s a neat multipoint option to connect the buds to two devices simultaneously to listen to music on a laptop and answer calls on the cell all at once. Charging is also a breeze by simply attaching the charging clip to the top of the control and using the included cable—and the charging clip can be charged alone to give the buds extra charging juice when on-the-go for an extra 4 hours, giving the buds a powerful 8-hour playtime total
The Jaybird Freedom earbuds retail for $179.99, and are available in Carbon (Black), Gold, Blaze, Ocean, Blush, and Space at jaybirdsport.com.
