JLab JBuddies Play Gaming Wireless Kids Headset, Pink, 22+ Hour Bluetooth 5 Playtime 60ms Super-Low Latency for Mobile Gameplay, Retractable Boom Mic, AUX Cord Compatible w/Gaming Consoles

My 8-year-old son loves this headset. The volume limiting feature makes me feel confident he can't turn it too loud and damage his hearing. He likes the boom mic that retracts, which has so far been durable enough. The pink color isn't too pastel, more of a bright fuchsia. It was a great value. He's mostly using it worked for gaming and calls, so I don't know yet about the wireless performance or battery life. But it fits well and he finds it comfortable.

I purchased for my son to use during hybrid learning due to covid-19. The purpose was to make it easier for him to be heard during zoom calls but also easier for him to mute himself without having to click his iPad screen - unfortunately the mute doesn't seem to work in the case of zoom, not sure if it's a limitation of the iPad, zoom or both because it works with Duo on android. The ability to hide (retract) the boom was a main selling feature as well. Nevertheless it has been a improvement of the many others we've collected - the battery life is unlike any other device I've seen - incredible! At the time of this review I hadn't spent any time trying to figure out the mute feature and zoom/iPad buy, I will and update this review. Important to note that connecting to BT devices is easy and quick; iPad, Amazon fire, Nintendo Switch and Samsung Note 8. I would definitely buy again and wish I'd bought from the start. ***8/20/21 - today we had our first issue after 11 months of near daily use; the power button no longer works. I sent an email to support so we'll see how the repair/replace is handled. I'm hopeful given the price and the 2 year warranty they get us a working pair - my now 8 year old loves them and with school recently starting he'll need them. I'll update the status moving forward.

Purchased these for my child to play Minecraft online with their friends. Got it on sale for around $17. Microphone comes through clear, audio isn't horrible (for gaming), and battery life is okay (but 22+ hours is a bit of a stretch). They fit perfectly for my 8 year old's head and look nice. They definitely FEEL plasticy, but they're also wireless headset for $17, so for me, it's understandable. For PC, wireless works flawlessly, but other reviewers mention that for consoles you need to use the 3.5mm cord provided. This cord + the charging cord are kinda short for the type of product this is, but who doesn't have a bunch of extra Micro USB cords lying around, so it's not a dealbreaker.

Garbage. Never worked. Unfortunately waited until getting on a plane to find out.

I bought two of these for remote schooling the kids during the pandemic. First the good... Ease of use and battery life. The headphones have a simple, single-button on/off/pairing function accompanied by a small but very bright LED whose color and state will tell you which mode you're on. The headphones are fairly easy to pair, and through 2 weeks of use have yet to lose device pairing and have to be deleted/re-paired like some other bluetooth devices I've used. For reference, we are using one with an iPad and the other with a Chromebook. The boom mic is bendy for positioning and slides back into the right cup when it's not needed. There is a big, mechanical mute all button on the right cup, which is both nice to have and easy to use. The headphones are closed back which provides for some background noise isolation. The battery lasts the entire school day. In fact, the battery lasted almost 3 school days, which brings me to my first and biggest gripe.... When these arrived I charged them with the included cables, which are short, seem to be of cheap construction and are an annoying blue color that matches nothing in our "charging area" we've established in our home. I ordered some high end micro-usb cables to replace them. For two days I plugged the headphones into the new cables not realizing they weren't charging. Only when they finally ran out of battery, in the middle of the third school day, did I figure out that that these headphones will only charge with the included blue cables. Meanwhile, I tried my high end cables with a number of other devices, like my Bose bluetooth speakers, and they worked fine. This is very frustrating since my kids are hard on cables and I have no idea where to get more of these. For now, I am jealously guarding them in my home office to keep them safe from the kids and just remembering to charge their headphones for them each night. At least with the long battery life, I don't have to panic if I forget to charge them one night. Additional gripes... The build quality seems a little on the cheap side for $50. They do indeed have sound limiting, which is nice for protecting little ear drums, but they seem overly aggressive on this feature as with the volume cranked (both the device and the headphones) I can barely hear them. To be fair, I'm holding them up to my ear since they don't fit on my head, and my kids haven't complained about this while wearing them. The cups could be a little more comfortable, but I'm sure these weren't designed for wearing them all day long. Finally, because of the wire frames connecting the cups to the headband, longer hair gets caught in these headphones over the course of the day. Overall, they seem to be getting the job done. We just started week 3 of the new school year, and the kids both seem fine to use them. Their biggest complaints have been related to all-day comfort and the hair tangling. The older one (Chromebook) did say that classmates complained the mic quality was not so good, but the younger one (iPad) has had no such issue.

I bought several pair to use at school. They work great. They are well made and affordable. I plan to buy more until I have a class set.

Love these headphones!

I purchased several pairs of headphones for my kids and these were by far the best. Sturdy. Didn't hurt their ears. We have a bit of trouble connecting every day, but usually on the third or fourth time the Bluetooth connects. My 8 year old can do it no problem, so this certainly isn't a deal breaker since every headset and mouse has had this problem so far.

works fine and my kid loves it!

My son loves the style of these. They are safe for his hearing however he wishes the earphones were bigger like his dad's. They are small although can adjust.

Disappointed as it did not work with my son’s Switch. Got something else instead.

The earphones are really small.. too small for my 8yr old to wear.. would only recommend for younger kids.

Great grandaughter loves them they are really good... I would recommend them
