With these JBL EVEREST 100 V100BTBLK wireless earbud headphones, you can rock out while you work out without worrying about messy cables. Bluetooth 4.1 technology enables simple wireless pairing, and JBL Pro Audio Sound ensures rich audio performance.

Lag apparent when watching video

As far as I can tell, nobody has mentioned this issue so far in the reviews so I'm writing this in the hope that it helps someone save the time of buying/returning this product.
The idea of a wireless headphones was very appealing to me; unfortunately it wasn't all it was cracked up to be.
Long story short, if you'll be using these headphones exclusively for music and conversation then they are a solid choice. However, any attempt to watch video on say your phone or tablet (regardless of platform) will be met with a audio/video sync delay of at least 0.5secs.
I've done some internet digging and apparently the problem is common with bluetooth headphones and unfortunately there is no solution.
There may be some products on the market that significantly reduce latency (those supporting something called aptx) but this is not one of them.
Fair warning...that the JBL or Best Buy won't give you.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
