What buyers say
Great value ANC headphones
I've used these daily for my commute and the battery life is insane. ANC works well enough to block out train noise, and the bass is exactly what I expect from JBL.
Comfortable but touch controls need work
Sound quality is fantastic and they're comfy for hours. My only gripe is the touch panel sometimes doesn't register taps correctly, which gets annoying.
Solid all-rounder
Not the best ANC I've tried but for the price it's hard to complain. The app EQ settings let me tune the sound to my taste which I appreciated.
Perfect for travel
Took these on a long flight and the battery lasted the entire trip plus more. Ambient Aware mode is handy when I need to hear announcements.
