Do the Soundgear Clips block outside noise?

No. They are open-ear and have no active noise cancellation, so you hear your surroundings. That is the point for runners and office use, but it is a poor fit for noisy commutes.

How long does the battery last?

JBL rates up to 32 hours of playtime with the charging case and about 4 hours of talk time per charge. A full recharge takes about 2 hours over USB-C.

Can I use them for running and rain?

Yes. The IP54 rating covers sweat and splashes, and the clip design stays stable during movement. Do not submerge them.

Can they connect to a phone and a laptop at once?

Yes. Bluetooth 5.4 with multipoint lets you pair two devices and switch between them, and Fast Pair speeds up pairing with Android phones.

How do they compare with Shokz open-ear headphones?

Both keep your ears open. Shokz models generally last longer on calls and have a longer track record; the Soundgear Clips lean on bass boost and a fashion-forward translucent finish.

The earbuds, the charging case and a USB-C charging cable. The case is charging only, so there is no audio cable or adapter.
