Absolutely fantastic quality. Great noise cancelation, easy, fast bluetooth connection that works well. Very, very good battery life, even when left "on". Seems to last for many days of continuous use.

Very good wireless headphones. Noise cancelling is good, can't hear outside noise when on the train even when the door was open. Ear cups are on the smaller size, barely fit whole ear. Great battery life and range. Drawback is they aren't as loud as I expected, but the audio quality is top notch

La calidad de audio es excelente y sus modos de cancelación activa de ruido y ambient aware son muy buenas tanto para si quieres disfrutar de tu música sin ruidos del exterior, como si quieres estar al tanto de lo que pasa a tu alrededor al escuchar tu música. La duración de la batería es muy buena igualmente. Ampliamente recomendados.

I bought these headphones for my husband for Christmas because he needed a new pair for the gym. According to him they are very comfortable and stay on his head with no sliding around while he’s working out. After trying out his I decided I needed a pair for myself. The sound quality is great and as I work in an office it’s nice to be able to turn on the ambient audio function so I can still hear if someone comes to my desk. So far the battery life is great and I’ve listened to them for a day and a half at work and haven’t had to recharge. The free app works very well so you can adjust the sound quality to your personal preferences. For only $80 this was a great deal and we are very happy with what we got.They do get a little uncomfortable after wearing them for a few hours but honestly what headphones wouldn’t.

As an Apple user, I wanted great over the ear headphones with noise cancellation, but there was Absolutely No Way I was going to drop the fat stacks on the Apple ones. I started looking around and considering my options, originally deciding on some SRhythm off-brand ones here on Amazon. When I came back with the money to buy, the SRhythms were sold out so it was back to browsing. At this point, I decided it would be a better idea to go with a trusted brand that didn’t have the possibility of disappearing from Amazon within the next few years.The ideal headphone, for me, was the Sony XM5s - after reading reviews it sounded absolutely godly. But it also costs godly amounts of dollars, which was the original problem I was trying to avoid.Enter JBL, I realized the speaker brand that went from “a few of your buddies ride or die by this brand” to a sound-junkie staple was IDEAL. I shopped around, looked at similar Skullcandy models, other brands similar in price but also not offering anything better than passive noise cancellation.The comparable Skullcandy model (price wise, at least) has worse battery life, primarily because it uses (imo) a ridiculous number of microphones for Active Noise Cancellation. At the time of my purchase, the Skullcandy model also costed slightly more which made even less sense.I find the noise cancellation on these to be easily comparable to the AirPod Pros I have used before. Especially with music playing, I cannot hear a single thing outside of my little bubble. I’ve used these at work for two days straight without ever having to plug them in. They connect to my phone with ease and the buttons on the side are very useful. The audio quality is crystal clear, and I often use these in the car instead of my stereo. These things perform beautifully.The JBL app is also a stroke of genius, allowing me all the customizability that Apple tries to prevent me from having with any non-Apple products. The different equalizer modes are absolutely killer too.I only have two small gripes. For some reason, the lowest noise cancellation setting jacks up the outside microphone’s volume but completely mutes my music without pausing it. So I can hear if someone is talking to me, but there’s not even a hint of the song I was listening to. This is a little disappointing compared to the AirPods transparency mode.The second one is that the ear cans on this thing are slightly too small for my ears, and I’m pretty sure I have relatively typical ear-size (elementary school kids would have made sure I knew if I had some Dumbo-sized ears yanno!). Wearing the headphones for hours at a time makes the cartilage on the side and top of my ear sore, and if they had like a millimeter or two more diameter that could be fixed.All in all, I consider these to be five star worthy because it’s an excellent value for the price. I absolutely love these things, and I hope they will last me a good while. I will be back to update my review on their durability after having owned them for longer.

I bought these headphones on sale for $99 and was hoping that they sounded as good as what they cost. And they absolutely do. I am impressed with the clarity, neutrality, and elegant bass it has. I was expecting something more like Beats headphones with ridiculous amount of bass, very sharp highs, and just overall a nasty eq curve. But this JBL does everything you want it to with true fidelity and naturalness. The only slight negative would be that the sound stage a little small, not much breathing room for a wide open soundscape.A couple of things to note. I use Tidal music streaming service with lossless/HiRes audio. To get the full quality you have to use the aux cable that it comes with. The sound is noticeably more accurate and faithful, but the bass gets a little lessened since your not using the built in amp in the headphones. With that said, it actually sounds very neutral and flat, which is astonishing because it’s really hard to achieve that in a hundred dollar headphone (usually would have to spend more).The other thing is, when using Bluetooth the quality is obviously not HiRes or lossless, but you get a big bump in bass and treble, and the same clear and natural mids. So all in all you get a really nice and smooth sound out of the box. I choose not to mess with the eq on the app because it sounds so perfectly tailored and high quality as is.Furthermore, when using the aux cable you can still turn on the headphones to use the ANC feature if you want, which is pretty neat. I did however notice that it affects the sound quality a bit. It has more bass and sharper highs, with a dip in the midrange. This results in a slightly thinner sound. So I would just use either Bluetooth or wired without turning on headphones. Using Bluetooth with ANC on or off doesn’t affect the sound quality. The Noise canceling itself removes about ninety percent of the noise I would estimate, which is plenty enough for me. No complaints there.The build quality is excellent, and it is very comfortable on my ears/head although it gets hot after a while. I got the blue color which looks subtle and sophisticated. The headphones are surprisingly petite in size which I wasn’t expecting, which is good for me because I hate big bulky ones. I’m glad I spent the money on them because they really do deliver in a refined way, and certainly fits the bill.

Estos audífonos suenan mucho mejor de lo que yo esperaba , superaron mis expectativas , la cancelación de ruido está genial pues sus almohadillas se ajustan con mucha comodidad sellando muy bien , y su función inteligente de escuchar algo de lo sucede a mi alrededor está genial para no estar desconectado totalmente…. es gracioso cuando activo esta función para Si oír el exterior y que las personas eleven bastante la voz para que , según ellas , yo los escuche , y luego yo les diga que si los escucho gracias a esta función inteligente de poder escucharlos 😂 ……. El precio me parece muy accesible considerado las diferentes marcas que existen , o sea , para mi es buena marca y con buen precio (pensando en mis posibilidades económicas)….. los recomiendo mucho. 👍🏻👍🏻
