UA Sport Wireless, Under Armour JBL Collab

UA Sport Wireless

Under Armour has teamed up with JBL to release not one, but two new sports headphones for your workout pleasure. Meet UA Sport Wireless and UA Sport Wireless Heart Rate.

UA Sport Wireless, Under Armour JBL Collab

The UA Sport Wireless headphones are the latest collab between athletic apparel company Under Amour and audio experts JBL. Unlike many other wireless sport buds that are hopping on the sports fin train, these new UA fitness buds are designed with a twist-and-lock motion to secure the buds in your ears. Both are fit with rugged and premium materials to ensure a durable and long-lasting build. The frame has a certified IPX rating of 5, meaning sweat shouldn’t be an issue. Both include a in-line mic and controller on the neckband giving users the ability to conduct phone calls, as well as navigate their music playlist. Both models include somewhat of a coaching system, with a free one-year subscription to the premium version of the MapMyRun app, which tracks your training sessions and monitors your progress.

UA Sport Wireless Heart Rate

The UA Sport Wireless boasts a longer battery life than the UA Sport Wireless Heart Rate, at 8 hours, and can be purchased for $149.95. However, for those who looking to take their workout regimen to the next level, the 5 hour battery life of the UA Sports Wireless Heart Rate may be able to do the trick. The upgraded earbud contains a slew of additional features, like custom coaching via UA Recording. It allows the user to view in-workout training analysis and customized heart rate feedback. As you may have figured by the name, this model contains a heart rate sensor to monitor, you guessed it, your heart rate. With that being said, the headphones are also able to pair with the UA Band so you can read your heart rate on your wrist. Touch sensors on the right earbud turn on voice command so your heart rate can also be spoken aloud to you. Pretty nice!

The UA Sports Wireless Heart Rate headphones can be yours for $199.95 on JBL.com.
