Overall amazing, but really tight

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use3 out of 5Pros mentioned:Bluetooth, Sound qualityCons mentioned:VolumeThe sound is great, the Bluetooth is great, but they hurt my ears. The headphones are really tight. When I wear them for a long time, they press up against my ears and end up really hurting them. I don't listen to my music on high volumes because I can be sensitive to loud audio. So It had to be the actual headphones and I had to return them. But either from that, buy them! They're really good! The picture attached is a picture I took before returning them.

A very nice set of headphones
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5To be honest, when i first unpacked these and tried them out I was a bit disappointed. They sounded kind of flat and lifeless like a set of $20 headphones. I remembered reading about the JBL app that you could download, so I gave it a try. After trying a few different settings (your taste could very well be different than mine) ....what a difference! The music is so much “punchier”. Great lows, sparkling highs ..midrange how it should be. I’m now tickled to death with these headphones ..Highly recommended, but try using the app!

Highly recommended!!!
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Excellent headphones for all the features available. I’ve purchased 2 pairs of these now because the noise canceling feature works very well, for me and my son, while doing school & work from home. The ambient sound feature also allows you hear sounds in the room while just lowering the sound of what you’re listening to through the headphones. Highly recommended!!!!

Perfect Alternative to Beats
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Quality pair of headphones for a fraction of the price of Beats. These aren't as good as Beats Solo 3, but the price difference does not justify upgrading to the Beats. Buy these instead and you will be just as happy. You get premium sound, with good battery life and quality craftmanship.

Deceptively Awesome Headphones
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5You might not think these headphones are any good but let me tell you they Rock! The high's are crisp and the bass booms! They are comfortable and I wear them when working out. Don't have any issue with them staying intact when I work out and they are very comfortable on my ears.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I bought these for my mom who is 89 years old. She has trouble hearing when she is watching church service on FB live. These headphones are wireless with Bluetooth. I don’t think she could have set them up herself but I had no problems doing that for her. She loves them.
