Magnets keep the buds in place while charging. Three LEDs on the front of the case display status for pairing and charging. The Vista 2 earbuds come with a battery-powered travel case / charging station. Below the LEDs is a USB-C connection port used for charging. The thee LEDs on the front indicate charging function. Charging and battery life The Jaybird Vista 2 charging case doing its thing.

And since these earbuds are low profile, they easily fit beneath an ear warmer worn under a helmet. But since most functions are managed by the app, I don’t foresee problems. I’ve not ridden with the Jaybird Vista 2 during cold weather necessitating gloves, which could add some complexity to controlling functionality. I’ve not stress-tested them on hardwood or concrete, but Jaybird claims they are drop-proof and crush-proof. And I’ve dropped them on the carpeted floor from a height of about 1 meter. Another bonus: no earaches or headaches like when wearing over-the-ear headphones for hours at a time while riding, or when doing Zoom calls.Īfter hours of use I can attest to them being indeed sweatproof. No amount of bouncing or jarring - or even bouncing on washboard or hardpacked dirt - can dislodge them from my ears. After a 150-minute session on Zwift, I swapped in the size large silicone earpieces and the fit is even better. The Vista 2 ship with the size medium silicone earpieces in place. Without a connecting cable between the left and right buds, once in my ears, they feel even smaller than what I’m accustomed to. The Jaybird Vista 2 are small and chunky-looking.

Configurable, comfortable fit The size medium silicone tip on the Jaybird Vista 2 made for an excellent fit. Pop it back in, and they start playing again. These earbuds can be set to auto-pause when one is removed from the ear - a handy feature that I’m liking more and more. This type of input method took some getting used to, but once I did, it was pretty easy and straightforward. Button functions are assigned in the mobile app and trigger by how you touch them - tap, press, long-press, or double-press. The entire exterior face of the Vista 2, beneath the Jaybird logo is a button. Since these are not wired buds that have buttons as part of the cord connecting the left and right earpieces, Jaybird had to design another user interface for controlling the Vista 2 functions. A quick check on the website gave easy-to-follow instructions for pairing them to my iPhone and I was up and running - well, riding - in just a few minutes.

But I was a bit bewildered with the new Vista 2 True Wirelss Sport as to how to change volume, pair them with my iPhone, or even turn them on.

My go-to Bluetooth wireless headphones were the Jaybird X3, and before those, I used the Jaybird BlueBuds X Sport earbuds. I’ve been a Jaybird user for several years.
