      We appreciate you taking the time to provide us with your feedback. Here are some troubleshooting steps that can help isolate the issue. First, in order for the headphones to give you the best audio response, you must create a tight seal within your ear canal. Please check your music player app and the headphone app to see if the EQ is engaged. If engaged, turn off the EQ. If turning it off does not resolve the issue, turn it on again and adjust the EQ by boosting the bass to your liking. Next, try to connect the headphones to a different device (phone/tablet/music player) to see if it fixes the problem. If the issue remains, you may contact our customer support for further assistance. JBL

      Thanks for your feedback. Here are some troubleshooting steps that can help isolate the issue. Please make sure that the headphones and device are within 10 feet from each other and with a clear line of sight (no obstacles). First, forget/unpair the headphones on your device then perform manual pairing. You may also try to connect the headphones to a different device (phone/tablet/music player) to see if it fixes the problem. Lastly reset, with both earbuds on, and not charging, tap two times, and hold the button on the third tap for more than five seconds. You may need to 'forget' the headphones in Bluetooth settings on your phone/tablet in order to pair them again. If the issue remains, please contact our customer support for further assistance. JBL

    Great Sound

    I have been looking for a pair of true wireless earbuds that are comfortable, have good sound, and decent call quality. I have a few already that sound nice, but calls are horrible. I tried three other pair before settling on the JBL Tone 230NC. First the Pros. The sound is great right out of the box! The equalizer in the JBL app helps but isn't necessary on my LG V60 phone. There is plenty of base (for the size) and good mid and highs as well. Just keep in mind these are wireless earbuds, not high end Bose or Sony around-ear cans. The sound-stage is good, especially for Bluetooth earbuds. They also get very loud! The 230NC earbuds are comfortable enough to wear for at least a couple hours straight without my ears getting tired. The medium size tips are secure in my ear and I'm not worried they buds will fall out while I'm on a walk, though I am not sure how well they'd do for runners. Call quality is great! There was no issue on either side of the conversation. Battery life seems to be close to what JBL is claiming. I only lost 10% after listening for two hours straight. All day listening won't be an issue. The earbuds have a good range; I can walk about 30 feet from my phone inside my home before they disconnect. The charging case is easily pocketable and charges fast by USB-C. No wireless charging on this model, but that's OK. The JBL Headphone App is decent, though I still find it annoying that it needs to know my location. ALL headphone apps seem to want that so, again, not a big deal. I like that the app shows the battery percentage of each bud and the case separately. The tap controls on the buds work fine for me, though the options in the app seem odd. Basically, you can't get away from some kind of tap activating a voice assistant. I'm sure i'll get use to this in a few days. Now the one Con. The ANC does works but is weak. It barely makes any difference at all with the fan I have running in the room. On the street, there is a little more noticeable difference; traffic sounds are decreased, but still clearly audible with music at normal levels. Some of the other buds I tried had way better isolation, but they also had bigger flaws in other areas such as being uncomfortable. I feel the ANC should be stronger considering the price. That isn't a deal breaker for me as I am more interest in comfort, good music, and decent call quality indoors. Those aspects are well covered on the the JBL 230NC. I didn't get to test calls in noisy conditions. I'm guessing that Bose or Sony buds have better voice isolation, but are least 50% more expensive and not necessarily as comfortable. All in all, for the price point, I'm not sure there is anything that can beat the sound, call quality, battery life, and comfort of these wireless earbuds.
