WEBVTT 00:00:00.230 --> 00:00:05.170 - I've been off on vacation for a week and man, do I ever wish I had me one of these. 00:00:05.170 --> 00:00:09.210 These are the JBuds Frames. And Luke and I have talked about this 00:00:09.210 --> 00:00:13.950 on "The WAN Show" before, that there is literally no human way 00:00:13.950 --> 00:00:16.990 to wear sunglasses without looking like a douchebag, 00:00:16.990 --> 00:00:22.220 but what we've never talked about before is whether there's anything you can do to your sunglasses 00:00:22.220 --> 00:00:28.480 to make you look like more of a douchebag. And now we've finally got the answer. 00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:32.030 The answer is yes. These are the Jbuds Frames. 00:00:32.030 --> 00:00:38.110 They're wireless audio for when you're on the go. And basically it's, as far as I can tell, 00:00:38.110 --> 00:00:41.750 a Bluetooth speaker/headset accessory 00:00:41.750 --> 00:00:45.980 that clips onto your sunglasses. So instead of spending a bunch of money 00:00:45.980 --> 00:00:52.340 on sunglasses that might be, you know, kinda mediocre sunglasses with kinda mediocre speakers, 00:00:52.340 --> 00:00:56.700 now you can have really good or even really crappy sunglasses 00:00:56.700 --> 00:01:01.800 with presumably mediocre speakers. In terms of accessories, they come with a charging kit... 00:01:01.800 --> 00:01:04.900 Oh, okay, yeah. Neat. So this is a... 00:01:04.900 --> 00:01:08.870 How does this go on? Oh, it's magnetic. Don't try and put that on the wrong way. 00:01:08.870 --> 00:01:12.700 It's gonna be like, "No, please don't put me on that way! Ah! I'll run away! 00:01:12.700 --> 00:01:18.130 I wanna get away from you! Ah! No! No, I'ma dodge you!" 00:01:18.130 --> 00:01:21.210 You know what? I gotta say, thanks, JLab, 00:01:21.210 --> 00:01:24.410 because this is a nice, cushiony sunglass case 00:01:24.410 --> 00:01:28.370 with whatever this little rubber accessory thing is in it. 00:01:28.370 --> 00:01:33.270 Oh! Whoo-hoo! Look at that! It's like a party and all the rubbers are invited. 00:01:33.270 --> 00:01:37.113 That's what these are for. There we go. 00:01:38.240 --> 00:01:42.220 Why didn't they just come pre-installed? I don't know. 00:01:42.220 --> 00:01:46.600 Okay. Well, that's on there. Oh, yeah. That's on there real good. 00:01:46.600 --> 00:01:50.280 Look at this. That's quality speakers. 00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:53.680 Won't even break off. Oi! 00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:57.170 Outta 10, how cool am I right now? - [Andy] He looks like a Justin Bieber. 00:01:57.170 --> 00:02:02.590 - I said outta 10. Wait a minute. Justin Bieber. Well, okay. Are you a Belieber or not? 00:02:02.590 --> 00:02:05.900 - [Andy] I don't know. You tell me. It looks pretty good. 00:02:05.900 --> 00:02:08.930 - Yeah? Is it too bulky? 00:02:08.930 --> 00:02:12.000 From the front it's bulky. - Yeah. - In terms of the weight, 00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:15.940 I've actually gotta give them credit. It doesn't feel that different 00:02:15.940 --> 00:02:19.560 from just having sunglasses on. 00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:23.790 I mean, in fairness, I have a fairly grand nose, you know? 00:02:23.790 --> 00:02:27.860 So there's a lot of foundation for the glasses to rest on there. 00:02:27.860 --> 00:02:31.030 But yeah, it's not bad. Actually not bad at all. 00:02:31.030 --> 00:02:34.690 All right, let's go ahead and fire these puppies up. Presumably you just hold the button 00:02:34.690 --> 00:02:38.670 and they go into pairing mode. "Ready to pair."

Now, so far I've only heard anything out of the left one. 00:03:18.470 --> 00:03:22.320 And if the little voice talking to me about the battery being full is anything to go by, 00:03:22.320 --> 00:03:26.000 this are going to sound like absolute ass garbage. 00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:29.320 You know what? Let's listen to some "My Little Pony" music. 00:03:29.320 --> 00:03:32.570 Okay, they're working in stereo now, so that's good. 00:03:32.570 --> 00:03:37.690 Wow. Oh boy. So this is a song about Cheerilee, the schoolteacher. 00:03:37.690 --> 00:03:43.270 I'm at the, "Hey, you're approaching hearing damage," levels of volume thing right now 00:03:43.270 --> 00:03:48.714 and I can barely hear it in a quiet studio with everyone, "Quiet on set!" kinda thing. 00:03:48.714 --> 00:03:52.867 (cheery music) Hold on a second here, ladies and gentlemen. 00:03:52.867 --> 00:03:58.540 "Respectful sound. The open speaker design features powerful 16mm drivers 00:03:58.540 --> 00:04:02.850 that produce sound perfect for just you. The unique design targets your ears 00:04:02.850 --> 00:04:07.410 without annoying those around you while being aware of your surroundings." Okay, so the idea is you can hear 00:04:07.410 --> 00:04:11.670 what's going on around you, but we got a bit of a problem with that theory. 00:04:11.670 --> 00:04:15.060 Problem number one: the speakers point down. 00:04:15.060 --> 00:04:18.600 They're ported down the bottom. Like, down. 00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:22.240 Also, it appears, based on the picture, 00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:25.250 that the speakers are meant to be mounted... Oh, no, no, no, no! 00:04:25.250 --> 00:04:29.120 They're meant to be mounted farther back. Okay, so maybe that's part of our problem here. 00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:32.200 So let's move these back. Okay, I'll give 'em another shot. I'll give 'em another shot. 00:04:32.200 --> 00:04:35.923 Let's see if this new fitment paradigm enhances the experience. 00:04:36.920 --> 00:04:40.673 This definitely looks stupider, doesn't it? - Yes. - Okay. 00:04:41.625 --> 00:04:44.740 (tinny, upbeat music) 00:04:44.740 --> 00:04:49.109 (crew laughing) I mean, you guys can just hear this fine, right? 00:04:49.109 --> 00:04:52.260 - Yeah. - Yeah. - I can... 00:04:52.260 --> 00:04:55.373 This is like... I can... 00:04:55.373 --> 00:04:58.630 Like, I can hear it. - [David] I think we can hear it more 00:04:58.630 --> 00:05:03.020 when it's on your head. - Well, it's because the speakers are ported down. 00:05:03.020 --> 00:05:07.600 - Yeah. - Yeah. Actually... They're ported to the outside too! 00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:10.523 Am I wearing them back... (crew laughing) No, I'm not. 00:05:11.380 --> 00:05:14.663 Now, maybe that's to give them a more open sound. 00:05:15.770 --> 00:05:19.840 But it does mean that, yeah, you guys can hear it just fine 00:05:19.840 --> 00:05:23.193 at what is a comfortable listening volume for me. What if I crank it? 00:05:24.030 --> 00:05:25.830 You're getting that skull resonance. 00:05:27.721 --> 00:05:32.080 (upbeat music) Wow, that distortion is something else. 00:05:32.080 --> 00:05:35.283 (crew laughing) Okay. 00:05:35.283 --> 00:05:39.660 But, but, this product can absolutely be redeemed. 00:05:39.660 --> 00:05:43.750 Eight hours play time, okay. How's the water resistance? 00:05:43.750 --> 00:05:47.090 Says absolutely nothing about that. That's not encouraging. 00:05:47.090 --> 00:05:50.541 But tell me this: Jono, how much does this cost? 00:05:50.541 --> 00:05:54.810 - [Jono] 50 bucks. - 50 bucks. Well, there's your answer right there. 00:05:54.810 --> 00:05:59.010 If you want a pair of Bluetooth speakers that clips to your sunglasses 00:05:59.010 --> 00:06:03.950 and you don't wanna spend a lot of money, then hey, frat boy, 00:06:03.950 --> 00:06:08.770 here it is right here. And when you lose them in a drunken stupor, 00:06:08.770 --> 00:06:13.173 you won't even care, because Daddy's trust fund's gonna take care of you just fine. 00:06:14.200 --> 00:06:18.970 Wow, I don't usually get that antagonistic in our videos. I just love sunglasses 00:06:18.970 --> 00:06:22.250 because I don't like having the sun in my eyes, but I hate sunglasses 00:06:22.250 --> 00:06:27.050 because I hate who I am when I wear them. (crew laughs) 00:06:27.050 --> 00:06:31.280 Yup. And these... You know what? For 50 bucks, you know what? 00:06:31.280 --> 00:06:35.340 Yeah, sure. Yeah, fine. - [Jono] You can also make calls. 00:06:35.340 --> 00:06:39.023 - Call Yvonne Ho. No, wait. 00:06:40.250 --> 00:06:44.630 We're listening to TheFatRat now. Okay, but it turned off! 00:06:44.630 --> 00:06:49.048 You gotta be kidding me. They're supposed to go on the other way? 00:06:49.048 --> 00:06:52.310 (crew laughs) 00:06:52.310 --> 00:06:56.340 Okay. Hey, at least the controls make sense now. Okay. 00:06:56.340 --> 00:07:00.643 So volume up right there. Double-press for play/pause, okay. 00:07:03.130 --> 00:07:07.320 Press and hold for one second, track forward. Okay, cool. 00:07:07.320 --> 00:07:11.150 So double-tap... Call Yvonne Ho. 00:07:11.150 --> 00:07:14.510 - Hey. - Yes, hello wife lady. You're on speakerphone. 00:07:16.770 --> 00:07:21.170 Um, I just wanted to check in with you. - [Yvonne] About what? 00:07:21.170 --> 00:07:24.860 - Does my voice sound good? - [Yvonne] What do you want? 00:07:24.860 --> 00:07:28.440 You sound like you did something wrong. - No, no, I didn't do anything wrong. I... 00:07:28.440 --> 00:07:31.810 Why would you assume that? (crew laughing) 00:07:31.810 --> 00:07:35.860 I just want to know if this microphone is any good. - [Yvonne] It's fine. 00:07:35.860 --> 00:07:39.190 - Okay, all right. All right, thanks. Man. 00:07:39.190 --> 00:07:42.570 So what we gotta figure out is what is it: 00:07:42.570 --> 00:07:45.620 some quality of the microphone, 00:07:45.620 --> 00:07:51.300 or is it something about being a douchy, indoor-sunglass-wearing (beep) 00:07:51.300 --> 00:07:54.670 that makes your wife thinks you did something wrong? By the way, oh, for those wondering, 00:07:54.670 --> 00:08:00.700 no they did not sound any better in the correct orientation. They're suitably adequate, 00:08:00.700 --> 00:08:05.500 if you don't care about sound quality, but you don't, because you have clip-on sunglasses speakers, so... 00:08:05.500 --> 00:08:09.000 You know what? I stand behind it. If you want one of these, I think 50 bucks 00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:12.280 is probably about what you deserve to spend on it. 00:08:12.280 --> 00:08:15.260 Thanks, everyone.
