Jays of Sweden are best known for their tangle free earphones. These are the first earbuds that I've come across that won't tangle. The a-Jays Five are available in three versions: one for Android, one for iOS and one for Windows Phone. They also have the most classy earbuds I've come across till date.
Here's how Jays describes it's earphones:
Following the success of our ever-so-popular a-JAYS Series, we present the all-new a-JAYS Five. We wanted to raise the bar even further and set a new standard for in-ear earphones by making something even better. Designed and engineered to match your iOS, Windows or Android device, we can proudly say: these are our best flat tangle-free cable-earphones yet
a-JAYS Five come in three different full-feature models for your iOS, Windows and Android phone. The three-button remotes are each designed to match your smartphone and support all features such as answer/hang up calls, play/pause music and videos, skip songs, change volume up/down, voice control, etc. Simply choose the model made for your phone’s operating system above and read more about all the features tailored for you.
By redesigning the entire earphones from scratch we were able to select and combine materials with different characteristics to create a unique and immensely durable and functional body. Covering precision turned aluminum with a flexible thermoplastic form made it possible to manufacture durable yet soft and flexible earphones with great acoustic properties in an extremely compact format. This sums up to a pair of earphones you will love using day after day.
The a-JAYS Five may look like simple earphones. We guarantee you they’re not. The form of the earphones is made in one piece and with complex geometry to follow the same complex geometry your ears have. Being made in one piece makes the earphones durable and strong. The angled form factor makes them fit comfortably as they follow your ear canal. The soft outer body makes them flexible, following your movements and preventing cable stress. Actually, you will barely notice you are wearing them.
Our beloved flat, tangle-free cables and a-JAYS Series has since the launch in 2010 been getting tons of awards and reviews during the years. We managed to improve the cables and plugs even further on the a-JAYS Five in order to pass our toughest reliability tests ever set up.
Inside the earphones we assembled a completely new custom driver. It has the characteristics of our multi-awarded and popular a-JAYS Four driver, with powerful and precise bass but with even more dynamics and improved details in the midrange and highs. Whatever music you like to listen to, you can be sure the a-JAYS Five will give you an addictive experience.
We strongly believe the color should be in the music; therefore, we developed all a-JAYS Five models in black and white versions. Simply toggle between the colors above to see which one suits you the most.
The Package :-
The earphones come in a handy round “carry case” with a crew on lid. Opening it was very easy; you simply need to pull the stripe on one end. After you opened it you will see another box which needs to be pulled out. After that, you will see this:
Everything looks and feels very nice. The components chosen are of high quality and we'll get on to the build quality next.
Build Quality :-
It's very important for earphones to have a good build quality. The a-Jays Five has an excellent build quality; one you might be waiting to see. The earphones are made up of aluminium and soft rubber.The silicon sleeves are flexible enough to cling onto your ears. The flat cable is nice and chunky. The control remote is made up of plastic which is not bad for earphones.The buttons are very nice and well placed and you do not need to look at the remote to control the sound.
Sound Quality :-
They seemed to be of good quality even before listening to them. The sound on these earphones are really clear. The bass is also good, but not excellent. You get pretty good noise isolation once these earphones fits your ears. The volume on these earphones are very loud, but since these earphones fit your ears perfectly, you don't need to listen to music on high volume.
You'll enjoy listening to rock, pop and hip-hop music with these earphones. And with no outside noise interfering, you'll get the best music experience you've ever had.
a-Jays Android app :-
Discover even more features with the JAYS Headset Control Android app available in the Google Play Store. Change track, adjust volume, target specific media players, launch apps and much more.
Music Player for iOS :-
Jays have developed an enhanced audio player for devices running on iOS. Check out more about the app here.
Price :-
The a-Jays Five is available for just $99 from the Official Jays Website. The price is relatively cheap compared to other earphones as no other earphones provide such good sound quality at this price range. Compared to my Beats Tour earphone, I feel the a-Jays Five is the clear winner here in terms of Build and Sound Quality.
Pros :-
- Good Build Quality
- Nice Sound Quality
- Tangle Free Cables
- Very Good Design
- Buttons well placed
- Cords are a bit heavy.
If you looking for a premium earphone at an affordable price, purchase the a-Jays Five eyes closed. With the extra sleeves, the earphone will fit in any ear, no matter how big or small.
