I’ve always liked the sound of Rock Jaw ear buds and now it seems they’ve brought out a wireless version. Don’t need another pair but hard to resist at this price?

I was a pre-order customer.

I have them.

The connection and the sound quality is really something special.

My goodness these are impressive. Very well made, come with a choice of tips including the default foam ones that act a bit like ear plugs. Also 3 different types of filters to suit the music you listen to. I have the default gold filters in place and the bass is taught with really detailed sound at the top end. Very impressive sound for any headphones I’ve tried, notwithstanding they go in your ears. At the price you’d be a fool not to get some. Really happy but given myself a headache playing music too loud!

I'd be interested but they aren't properlywireless in my view.

Wireless ear buds shouldn't have a wire between them imho

I see it as a bonus as it stops me losing one of them! Besides, with the wire around the back of my neck I cannot tell it's there.

Can you post some pictures? The ones on their website aren't particularly good, more of the wire between them would be useful.

Sure







The drivers are made out of aluminium, they are also magnetic.

So how do you charge them? I'm tempted but the info on their website is sadly lacking.

Usual arrangement, there's a dust cover with a USB C socket underneath in the battery. Battery life is 11 hours. Oh and there's a mic for receiving/making phone calls.

I've had several different pairs like this, including some Bose sound sport and these blow them out of the water. They're comfy and sound simply brilliant to my ears.

After listening to them for longer they really sound better after the burn in stage IMHO.

How is that possible they sound incredibly out of box.

I’ve had a bit of trouble getting the tips to fit my huge ears so I went to their support page to ask advice/options. Within 15 minutes they’d called me to explain they come fitted with medium size foam tips and there were large and small options in the box if you lift up the foam bit. I hadn’t seen this so 100% my fault.

He said any trouble I should call back and they’ll send me new ones. He also asked how I liked my new earphones and told me they’d worked really hard to get them right. They are only a small family business so he was genuinely pleased when I said they were great. Definitely worth supporting a small British business imho.

Mine arrived yesterday - very very impressed, sounding great out of the box. The comply tips have impressed me too, they provide excellent isolation, so much so that I've stopped looking at noise-cancelling headphones!

For £75 these are a steal.

Have you guys noticed the battery life is actually longer than 11 hours? I think mine has gone to now 12 or 13. I know it’s going to vary on how loud it is.

Really it’s the gift that keeps on giving.

I’m not getting that much out of them but I’m playing mine too loud. They sound excellent at high volume but I think I’m going to end up deaf. They are superb, and the noise isolation from the comply tips is excellent. Highly recommended.

Had several flights this week so the T5s got a good workout. The comply tips are ace at isolating, almost as good as my mates high end Bose over-ear noise cancelling jobs. The black filters are the pick for me. Really impressed with these phones.

I took mine on Holiday to Tenerife.

I like the silver filter as I’m into R&B etc

So many peeps on holiday asking what brand they was.

The shipping seems woefully slow.
I ordered mine almost 2 weeks ago and no sign of them yet.

Weird. Mine arrived within 24 hours of ordering. Have you tried calling them?

I placed another order with them last week @ 2.45PM and it arrived by 11am next day.

However my friend who is located in Ireland said it took over 2 weeks to arrive.
