Great if you travel
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I own smaller, wireless earbuds but I needed headphones that can connect to the entertainment screens that are located on the back of airplane seats. What makes these so great is that they come with a cord and plug into airplane screens or you can go wireless and connect to your phone or iPad. The battery life on these is amazing and they hold a charge incredibly well when not in use. These headphones are very good at blocking airplane noise as well but if you want that as the main function, you may want another option.

Sounds good, comfortable, easy to use.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm very pleased with this one. The headphones sound good. The battery lasts quite a while. I like the integration with the app on my phone, and the pass through sound when I need to hear what's happening around me. I use Google assistant quite a bit, and the integration of that with the headphones is convenient. I can just tap the headphones and get my notification, and use it to send a voice text message without messing with my phone. It is almost too easy, and sometimes tells me what time it is when I adjust the headset on my head, which takes some getting used to. But overall that is a reasonable trade-off for me. I'd buy them again.

A very good value for the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are a very good value for the price. They are comfortable, easy to use, and sound great. They have some nice features like the ability to lower the volume so you can hear outside conversations without having to take them off. My only head scratcher is why are they still using USB-micro to charge. Its nice to have an extra cable lying around just to charge them up when everything else uses USB Type C now which is so much faster at charging devices. For the price point, I would say you would be hard pressed to find a better quality headset.

Great sound
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Little heavy to wear long term but great for wearing when you are vacuuming or just need to get away from the every day sound. Not noise cancelling but over-the-ear cushions are thick enough to accomplish essentially the same thing. The bass is heavy but I like bass. The Bose or Sony are better sounding but cost quite a bit more and I couldn't justify the price difference so I returned both the Bose and the Sony. The buttons take some learning. I'm still struggle at times to accomplish the desired task.

Would purchase again...LOVE THEM!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these headphones at the beginning of October and the sound is great and the bass is not too distracting. If you're looking for heavy bass in a pair of headphones this may not be for you. Otherwise, I love the features and being able to talk to the headphones and ask the weather. It can hook up to Bixby or Alexa. It also has a setting if someone comes up to talk to you that you can click a button and have a conversation without ever taking the headphones off. They seem very durable I tend to fall asleep with them at night and they've not failed me.

Great Headphone
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had these for over a month now and the sound quality is really good.These are the first wireless headphones I ever bought. I use them to replace the wired ones for my computer and for "tunes" when I go to the gym. For my purposes, they are great. It has a fairly neutral sound so basses are good, but not over powering, and the mids and highs are nice and crisp. headphones have a very premium feel and are snug even in gym sessions which is the primary usage aside around the house. Soft sponge ear cups compliment the feel in long duration. The sound quality is punchy and yet very refined.Perfect budget headphones.

Simplicity and Comfort
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These JBL headphones are my first “Over the ear” headphones. There simplicity and comfort along with the sound is what attracts me to these headphones. My household gets pretty loud at times when I’m trying to study, but I slide these on and I find my peace again. The battery life last a good bit. I recharge it about once every week or so. I use them about a couple of hours every day or every other day. The only downside are the buttons on the side. I get confused from the volume buttons to the connective button. All in all it’s a pretty decent product for beginners.

Aaaaamaaaaazing!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The talk-thru and ambient aware features are the bees knees! I always want to listen to music while out walking the dog in the evenings, however I’m uncomfortable blocking out sound for safety reasons. The ambient aware feature allows me to listen to music while simultaneously allowing me to hear my surroundings day or night; which gives me a sense of safety. Also, I can listen to music while cooking or cleaning and hear my son talk to me and knocks on the door. Alternatively, I can turn those features off and tune out all outside sound when I’m listening to audiobooks or guided meditations. To top it off, the length in which the charge lasts, makes these headphones top of the line as a whole when it comes to affordable, full featured, long lasting headphones.

Great buy on sale.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this for a relative who is recovering from some very serious health issues. He played guitar in bands for a long time and right now music is his most enjoyed activity. He has downloaded a large number of songs on his Ipad and is new to that whole process. He has limited resources due to his medical condition, so I wanted to get something that had quality sound. He said that is sounds fantastic and is very comfortable. I have several JBL items and have found them to be quality at a good price.

Great mid-level cost headphones !
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted a set of good, over the ear headphones, at a reasonable cost. After looking at, and listening to a few models, I settled on these. The sound is terrific, the bluetooth connection is outstanding, and I appreciate the long playing time available after charging. I recommend these to anyone !

I like them
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these. Normally, I can’t wear headphones for too long because they bug my ears or feel too heavy. These are nice and I have a big head lol. I use them for flights, school, and music. The sound quality is good enough for me. I’ve had more expensive headsets that ended up being a waste of money because I never wore them. I purchased a case separately but it was a pain finding ones that fit. That’s the only drawback.

Solid performance, value and price.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm a fan of JBL from my younger rock band days. This headphones set have a good sound profile which is versatile for a wide variety of music genres from rock, pop and easy listening. They are also decently comfortable and is a tight fit for some. They can be a good option when playing music since they don’t leak too much, you’ll be able to mask more ambient noise, which can be useful in an quite setting. I recommend this JBL due to the solid performance, value and price.

Quiet Please
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have been working from home like many people, these headphones are a must have. When I say that they block out the noise around me, they truly block out the noise around me. I am on the following platforms all day: Google Meet, Google Classroom, and Zoom. I need to be able to hear people and they need to be able to hear me without all the background noise and these headphones are my best investment. These are a MUST HAVE!

Good Value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros: These headphones are comfortable. Easy to pair. Have excellent range. Clear audio. Cons: While the audio is crystal clear they lack in bass, and I don't mean like the overwhelming bass of some headphones, any in general really. Buttons do not seem to be as intuitive as they should be and don't really work as well as I expected. The noise cancellation feature works well, however I have seen other headphones in this price range without it that block outside noise just as well.
