top headphones for the money there is no better choice, in terms of sound they are perfect, and in terms of battery I have no words, I charge them once a month while I use them 5 times a week at the gym.
It's a great purchase. Some people who write in the comments that it's too tight, I don't know what heads they have, sometimes when I'm lying down at the gym they fall off my head. Also excellent conversation through the phone as they have a microphone, you hear and are heard perfectly...
For these money I think it's a one-way street to buy them... quality sound and quality construction... the battery lasts 5 days with over 8 hours a day at full volume and charges relatively quickly. I am very satisfied and probably will buy another pair because my son liked them too and we fight over who will use them
I, who wear glasses, want a 5-minute break from the headphones every hour. I have been very satisfied with both their sound and bass, as well as their microphone. I use them for music on the go and they have pretty good external noise isolation, but I have used better headphones in this regard. They also have a very nice bass for music. I use them for calls via zoom and have never complained about the microphone even if I am in the next room. Finally, I use them for gaming and they have pretty good surround sound (I have tested them in games like Witcher 3, Warframe, Skyrim, Civ 6, PoE, etc.).
If your head is square like Frankenstein's and the size of a tennis ball, there is no problem, buy them. Also, if you have the ability to hear ultrasonic sounds with distortion, these headphones are for you. The sound is equivalent to 5 euro flea market headphones, but these are also designed as torture devices.
The best I have bought at this price.
Powerful clear sound with full bass + JBL's equalizer via the app allows you to customize your sound as you like.
Endless battery life, I use them daily at the gym and I really forget when was the last time I charged them.
Flawless connectivity, never lost signal.
High quality with adjustable arms to fit the length according to your head.
Calls and microphone flawless to the point that I am considering leaving my bluetooth handsfree and using these as they suit me better!
100% must buy from me!
+They are very good for their price. I would buy them again. Good sound.
- Like all similar ones, when used in the gym, ears sweat. Moderate sound isolation.
The review refers to the purple one, which is also very beautiful and unique
The headphones are great!! Just after a few hours, my ears start to hurt, but it's logical that if you put headphones in your ear, they will start to bother you... Anyway, the headphones are worth their money. As for battery life, there's no discussion at all. Once you do a full charge, you can easily forget to charge them for 10 days
Very lightweight headphones, isolate external sound very well. I use them for walking for music but also for wireless headphones both for the phone (to talk for over 45 minutes) and for the computer! I am very satisfied!!!
It has amazing battery life, after the first charge I recharged it again after a month of using it for 2 hours a day at the gym. They have good sound quality and for their price, they are perfect
Very good value for money! I highly recommend them for those who are looking for something in this price range and have high demands on sound quality, for everyday use.
I got them for the bus and the bike out of curiosity and interest I saw people using them on the bus. Although for music, bass, and phone calls they are perfect, they are very tight. I can't use them for more than a few minutes, even though I have tried to loosen them up. The battery is great, very powerful and does not easily fall out. I do not have a big head so I was surprised that they were so tight.
If you can't handle tight headphones, I would say to avoid them.
It's worth 100%! Even though it says it doesn't have noise cancellation, as soon as you put them on, you don't hear anything around you. Very good bass, very clear sound, and overall very nice headphones. I haven't charged them since I got them, so the battery is really good, I would say! The only downside is that after some time, you feel pressure on your head because they are a bit tight.
P.S. They also have their own mobile application.
Good purchase and worth their money. Their sound is good, they are lightweight, flexible, comfortable, and do not tire me out, no matter how long I wear them.
They have a very long battery life and I forget to charge them. I like the quality of the materials and their plastic does not look cheap. Also, there is a JBL app available where you can adjust the settings to your liking.
My biggest issue is that sometimes they get stuck and do not turn on or disconnect, they shut down and remain inactive. I put them on the charger for about 30" and then they work normally, I do not understand the reason and it creates issues for me when I am out.
Overall, for the price I got them (~45€), I recommend them.
Great value for money. Very good sound and build quality for their price. As soon as I turn them on, they connect instantly to my phone. Long battery life. And the fact that they "fold up" makes it easy to store and carry them. If you want something good and affordable, I recommend them
For wireless headphones up to 40 euros, the 520BT is the way to go. In their category, they definitely have the best build and sound quality, and the battery will easily last you for a month. The only serious complaint worth considering is whether they are suitable for prolonged use. Because as on-ear headphones, they are small and if you have a very large head, I don't think you will like them. However, they fit well on my own, even though I use them minimally.
The sound quality and construction are quite good. I could overlook the fact that they are tiring after an hour of use, but the fact that there is a delay in the sound resulting in a significant difference between the image and sound makes them useless to me. I have tried all the available settings and the problem was not solved. The manufacturer states on their website that they use buffering to enhance the connection quality, resulting in a slight delay in response. However, the response is very long. I will not choose JBL again, as their other products also have the same issue.
I received them as a gift for a friend, very good fit without issues (small head), she is thrilled with the autonomy and sound.
The only thing it doesn't do well is phone calls in noisy places... on the other hand, even the ones that cost 300 euros don't do it well (speaking from experience), so...
I recently got them and overall I am not satisfied.
The positives about these headphones are that they have good construction, to be honest on the other hand it is not the best. The headphones have a large gap from the head, about 3 fingers.
As for the negatives, I have to say that they have absolutely no sound isolation. Personally, I want to listen to my music at maximum volume but even then the other city can hear me because of how bad the sound isolation is. In terms of comfort, it is also terrible. After about 1 hour, your ears start to hurt and it bothers me a lot since I also wear earrings. And then there's the sound quality, which is also terrible. I turn it up to the maximum and it feels like I have it at 60% (of the volume).
One of the best purchases I have made in headphones, if you exclude the warm months where only the use of air conditioning would make any ear cover headphones bearable. Excellent sound, with great customization from the app, connects simultaneously to multiple devices and automatically switches sources, extremely soft and comfortable pads and headband, for many hours of use, of course without charging... you completely forget about it!!! Well done JBL!!!
I got them as a gift for a teenager, and he is thrilled. They have good sound, they are user-friendly, and probably durable, because he doesn't take care of them much.
