Customers are saying
Customers are positive about the sound quality, comfort, battery life, price, and wireless connectivity of the LIVE 500BT Wireless Over-The-Ear Headphones. They appreciate the fantastic sound, comfortable fit, long battery life, and affordable price. However, some customers have concerns about the volume, portability, app, and ear pain. They find the volume to be low when connected to a TV via Bluetooth, the headphones to be bulky for daily use, the app to be unnecessary, and the headphones to cause ear pain during long-term use.

I would recommend this to a friendIt’s okey, but...
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ear cups were small that made me uncomfortable since they sat over my ears! sound quality could be better! If you’re a loud listener the higher the volume gets the base gets more hollow and sometimes adds a bit of noise to the base.

Headache
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These do sound pretty decent for what I paid. The problem is these things will squeeze your head into a headache within a hour. I also have a skinny head. Deal of the day 79.99

Extreme Discomfort
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound was very good, but.....the fit was so tight that they were painful to wear for more than half an hour. There was no way to adjust them.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Forget about it!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these expecting something that is/was user friendly but found that the company cheap's out on the user manual that you need to download from another site. Doing so I found the manual to be unreadable, showing icons with no explanation for instructions. Not all of us are tech savvy. If a company of this stature produces this kind of garbage for instructions then it is the last time I will spend my money on their products. I’m sending these headphone back to Best Buy for a refund.

Ok.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s good but needs more oomph in the bass department. It’s a bit flat at times. I also find that it sometimes has a hard time keeping the connection perfect, not of blipsz

Posted .We always recommend that there be a clear line of sight between the connected devices to ensure a stable connection with your Live 500BT and your phone. You can try adjusting the bass using the equalizer on the music application that you're using to your liking. You may try the troubleshooting steps on our support page article titled "Bluetooth Pairing and Connecting" here: https://support.jbl.com/

Constantly disconnecting
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good headphones. Good sound quality. The most important thing for me is that people around me can't hear what I am listening. It means, that during some long flight or even short bus trip I will not disturb the people around me. I am giving one star because this headphones are disconnecting from my phone and my TV all the time. Wil return.

Not for daily use
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought it for my work to attend meetings. This is too bulky for daily use and feels like a headphone used by musicians.
