Get you some!
These earbuds continue to impress me. The audio quality is the best I've experienced for earbuds, including the venerable Grado earbuds. The Ambient Aware function works great to control the level of sound in your ears and what is going around you, and with one tap on the left earbud, you can switch to noise canceling mode which works great.
The app is very user friendly, you can do many functions including adjust the EQ, add custom EQs, switch listening modes, adjust your talk volume level in calls, etc.
One small note, every now and then the music will cutoff but continue to play on my iPhone 12 mini. This could be an issue relating to needing a firmware update or something I'm not doing correctly.
Besides that minor issue I am really happy with these, and I highly recommend them. Get yourself a pair!

A couple of touch-ups are needed in the future
While this is a great product mainly for dance-oriented music using the "Club" Equalizer in the JBL Headphones App, you almost ALWAYS have to fiddle around with the preset equalizer settings by selecting one of the approximate 7 presets depending on what kind of music you are listening to. Furthermore, the Ambient Noise Cancellation feature doesn't always work unless you have a good ear seal. A couple of ear hooks would be nice, but in future generations, I would prefer a tighter ear canal seal so this way you wouldn't have to fiddle too much with the JBL Headphones app. There's still much work for Harman to do. :/

I'm feeling them.
I bought these last week or so and I love them. I honestly have no complaints yet and I don't think I will. I hope I won't at any rate. I'm happy with them.

Versatile earbuds in sustainable packaging
The earbuds are great but wanted to start the review by complementing the packaging. I've dinged product ratings in the past for including unnecessary single-use plastic packaging, so was very excited to open the box and find almost no plastic in the packaging at all! Big step in the right direction for JBL which I definitely appreciated. The only parts of the packaging that weren't paper/compostable were a 3"x2"x1" foam cube that the buds were secured in, the plastic tab on top of the outer box used to hang in retail stores, a small cloth pull tab to help get the inner box out of the outer box, and a small plastic window in the inner box to be able to see the earbuds themselves without opening the box. All of these seem unnecessary to me, so here's to hoping JBL finds a way to eliminate them too, but big kudos for eliminating all the previously included plastic dunnage.

As for the earbuds themselves, I've really enjoyed using them. I switched the soft tips to the smallest ones that were included since the default/medium ones kept popping out of my ears - no fit issues since then. They even remain in my ears when wearing them on runs, and so far I haven't had any issues from sweat (water resistance rated IPX5).

I love the form factor of the earbuds as well as how compact the case is. The noise-cancelling is pretty solid for in-ear buds, and I like the gentle tap interface on them for play/pause/next/etc. Previous buds I've owned (including ones from JBL) have required a more forceful push/click which often caused discomfort by shoving the buds deeper into my ears, but not the case with these.

I have received a few complaints of poor/quiet mic audio quality when using these on calls, but typically only gotten the feedback when the office/setting had louder background noises. I've also experienced the Bluetooth connection drop randomly a few times, though not very frequently at all.

Last quick warning to the fidgeters like me out there: I have a habit of holding the case in my hand and clicking the lid open and shut like some castanets. Whenever I do this while my phone is connected to my over-ear headphones, the LiveFree earbuds will override the Bluetooth connection, and I'll have to quickly switch it back to the over-ear ones. This is actually probably a good feature (earbuds connecting automatically when case is opened), and the pet peeve is obviously my fault/specific to my fidgeting situation, but thought it would be worth calling out in case designers can add in a two or three seconds delay for future versions.

Overall great set of earbuds.

JBL Live Free 2 TWS
The JBL Live Free 2 TWS are nice! They fit in my ear perfectly! The noise cancellation is excellent. I was able to customize the earbuds with the JBL app for the sound that's for me. I love that's it waterproof so it doesn't get damaged from me sweating. The touch and voice commands took me a bit to get. But they work fine. The only issue I have is when I'm on a call the caller sounds very low. Hard to hear.

JBL LIVE Free2 TWS earphone review
Over the last 2 weeks or so, I have used the JBL LIVE Free2 TWS earphones every day sitting around relaxing, out on walks, working around the house and even mowing the grass. First off, these are great-looking headphones – they remind me of shiny jelly beans! The case is easy to carry around and supports wireless charging. When I first opened the box the case showed two bars so I plugged them in using the USB-C cable and charging completed in about 30 minutes. With wireless charging, it takes about 4 hours from empty to full charge, twice as long as charging with a cable. The battery life of the LIVE Free2’s is very good getting between 5.5 to 6 hours of continuous playback medium volume.

The earphones have LEDs to indicate charging and connection status. The power connection pins in the case are magnetic and hold the earphones well. The LIVE Free2’s come with three pairs of ear tips for the best fit. As I said, I use earphones frequently while working around the house and yard, but my ears are small so finding earphones with a comfortable challenging. To aid with that, the JBL Live Free 2’s design adopts an oval shape and feel light while in my ears. There was no pressure so I did not feel any pain in your ears even after wearing them for a long time.

The JBL Live Free 2 supports multi-point connectivity that allows you to stay connected to two devices at the same time. For example, if you connect to a work smartphone and and a private smartphones at the same time, you can receive a call on the work phone and still listening to music on the private phone. When you answer the phone, the music stops automatically, and when you hang up the phone, the music starts again automatically. The earphones can each be used independently for single-ear use. Controlling the earphones involves tapping of the left or right earphone. The buttons don’t have tactile feedback, but there is a pleasant beep and a voice announcement of each function as it is being selected.

The listening experience was excellent from a variety of streaming services such as YouTube, Spotify and Audible. I used several playlists that ranged from classical, jazz, classic rock to spoken voice. Selections included Chopin, Mozart, Miles Davis, Led Zepplin, Allman Brothers, Pink Floyd and sundry podcasts just to name a few. The LIVE Free2’s provided a good balance between mid and low frequencies. The bass is solid and powerful while the highs were smooth and airy.

JBL’s Live Free 2 earphones also feature Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) technology. The technology listens to ambient noise and produces an opposing soundwave. This noticeably reduces the extraneous sounds the wearer hears. For example, with ANC turned on, I could not hear my ceiling fan running on high even without music playing. Mowing the grass with the ANC active greatly reduced the sound of mower’s engine. The LIVE Free2’s also have “Ambient Aware” and “Talkthrough” features. Ambient Aware lets you hear ambient sounds while leaving the volume of the playback levels as is. The Talkthrough feature is a conversation-oriented function where playback levels are decreased by about 20% and speech is amplified. Usually, I remove my earphones when I’m talking to someone, but with the Talkthrough feature, there’s no need.

For me, the JBL Live Free 2 wireless earphones are an excellent choice that provide very good sound quality, call quality, and ANC performance.

Amazing set of ear buds!
I had the opportunity to put these buds to the test. Once removed from the package I placed them into the case which activated the buds. From there I was able to pair and then download the JBL headphone app. Initial impressions were that these sound superb. Perfect fit and very balanced sound. In the app your able to tweak the sound to your liking as well as adjust the noise canceling and talk through features. These headphones also test for proper fitment to give the best listening experience. You can select your favorite assistant from Google, Alexa, and Siri. The buds themselves are touch sensitive. Within the app you can select what each bud will do when you touch them.
This past weekend I decided to put these to a full test while detailing my car on a windy day. I had noise canceling on and the volume all the way up. I was playing an album with mixed tracks. After a little over two hours the battery life dropped to 20 percent from fully charged. I was constantly moving and never really felt that the buds would fall out. I did have to readjust them every once in a while to squeeze them tightly into my ear canal. I didn’t get any interference from the 20mph winds or hear the buffer over my music. I experienced non stop interference free listening. I truly enjoyed listening to these and was so happy to have had them while working. After a while I forgot they were in my ears since they were so comfortable. I did adjust the sound more to my liking and was so pleased with the sound. Distortion free at full volume. I had taken a break for about 30 minutes and placed the buds back into the case. Fully charged and ready for a few more hours of hardcore listening.
The Live Free 2 TWS have 11mm drivers making the sound very full and lively. The active noise canceling keeps unwanted sound out and the adjustable talk through feature allows the right amount of sound through the buds. Phone calls sound super clear on both ends. The water resistant feature means I can wash and detail cars with these on. You can get 7 hours play time at moderate volume and another 28 hours utilizing the case for a total of 35 hours of play time. The buds are comfortable having oval tubes allowing less fatigue while having them in my ears. These are my go to buds for everyday listening. Ear buds have come a long way over the years and I was a fan of over the ear style headphones previously. These buds offer better sound and immersion than all of my over the ear headphones. Better features and they don’t compress or weigh down on my head. I am truly enjoying these ear buds. These are great!!!

My favorite buds ever - they rock!!
I am overly impressed with these new ear buds!! I've had them for approximately two weeks and they have been fantastic. The noise canceling on these are equal if not better than my over the ear headphones, even when mowing my yard. They have all day comfort while wearing them in my office. The sound (like all JBL products) is incredible with crystal clear highs and impressive bass. And the power usage is unbelievable. With a fully charged case and buds, i an confident that i could get seven full days of eight hour usage. I've provided screen shots of the power usage. First morning shows the case at 60% and buds at 100%. Second screen shot shows after a day at work with case still at 60% and the buds at about 20% each. I put the buds in the case and tossed them in my backpack. Next morning, (third screen shot) buds at 100% and the case only down to 50%. THAT IS AWESOME!!!! I hate being tethered by power cords, and the case and buds only need a couple hours to fully charge when needed. Fantastic job JBL!!!

Perfect for running and work meetings!
This is a great product. I have primarily used them for running and connecting to my laptop and tablet. They work great on runs as they do not fall out of my ears. Also, they easily connect to my laptop and tablet and produce great sound quality. The microphone works great as well which is important because I use them in Zoom meetings for work.

The sound quality is great. Also the battery life of the headphones and the charging case is phenomenal. They are versatile headphones that allow for an active and ever-changing lifestyle. The noise cancellation is an added bonus that works great. Overall, a great product from JBL.
