JBL Reflect Flow Pro Waterproof True Wireless Noise Canceling Active Sport Earbuds

I have had these earbuds for a couple weeks and they have awesome sound. Everything you want is there in the sound stage. The only thing I would say I do not like about them is the noise canceling, as it doesn't work that great in a loud room. The headphones also work great with Siri and Iphone calls.

I bought two JBL Reflect Flow Pro devices a half year ago, one for my brother and a second for myself. Unfortunately, both devices have issues((
1. My earbuds have an issue with position and functionality. The bug with functionality is that music can stop when you just turn your head left/right or go fast. When I disabled all functionality in the Android "JBL Headphones" application I faced another bug(( If you turn left/write your head you will hear "device connected" words even if it was connected and plays music.
2. My brother left earbud just stopped charging. The right earbud works perfectly without any bugs.

The sound quality and battery life are excellent, but due to low reliability, I couldn't recommend them for purchase.

I bought these back in November. Would not buy again. Did not stay in my ears and the switching between noise cancelling and regular sound was always weird, sometimes it would switch on its own. But I decided to overlook that and keep them. I box, and when I tried using them while boxing I could only throw a couple punches before they'd fall out. About 3 months ago I was getting off the bus and as I stepped out, of course one of my earbuds fell out and got run over by the bus.
As far as sound quality these are wonderful. For studying and relaxing at home? Great! But these are literally marketed as being great for workouts and they are NOT.

I am a daily runner. I had several pairs of Plantronics earbuds which were great but discontinued. After a lot of reading, I selected these JBL earbuds which were much higher in price. Out of box they were great but numerous issues with them over the ~ 6 months I've had them. I won't even list all of them ...

1) The earbuds & app randomly reset the settings back to factory default state. I use the app to set them up so I have volume control by tapping. Every so often, this is lost - I usually discover it a couple miles in.

2) I design electronics for a living. These devices may have passed an IP test, but they are not well designed. One of earbuds got earwax on it which plugged / covered the speaker. It is impossible to clean out, and the volume is extremely low and muffled. Sound quality is terrible and I need to turn volume to max. just to hear anything. With volume at max. I constantly get messages from my phone saying I am damaging my hearing .... despite barely hearing the sound.

3) The other ear bud will malfunction and completely turn off when I get particularly sweaty - which is a common event when running in Texas. It will not work again until it has hours to dry out.

Overall these were too expensive to work properly for such a short time. With other products I've been able to enjoy them until the battery end of life was reached.

They worked fine for about 15 days, but now are having issues, every time I put them in my ears, they work as intended for about 5 seconds,.then repeatedly make the disconnect sound and connect sound so much that it is unenjoyable, and when it does this, you lose all features accept for the music playing, which is not even audible.

When working properly they sound good are a little large but generally comfy and stay secure ish whist running. Unless you get too sweaty in which case they are like bars of soap in your ears, also expect any sweat that touches the side to pause your music or switch from Underworld to ABBA mid run.

If you are okay with constant faffing about with apps and you are okay with carrying the case about wherever you go as well as constant messaging to connect with Google voice commands then you should be fine with these headphones.

I have used JBL products for years and my previous JBL Free x never missed a beat until they went through a hot wash (and dry) - and even then they worked intermittently. The thing that made them good was the ability to turn them on... and off... with a button. As crazy as it sounds they had an on and off switch, whereas the flow pro will time out after 10-15 mins and become just two useless bits of plastic. In addition to the above, I have had constant connection issues such low fi sounding music following a call and which then requires to unpair Bluetooth and repair - only to find that it will no longer re pair without the case. This happened the first time on a long walk in the middle of nowhere with the case left in the car. Because why would you expect something that has individual batteries to have the ability to be witched on and off - that's just something of the past surely. I've contacted JBL customer services who has essentially said - it's fine - that's what they are supposed to do. I think my next headphones or speaker will be from a different company. It was good while it lasted.

One bud just stopped working, were cool earbuds until this happened

Sound quality is excellent as well as EQ function of the app. Great fit, style and build quality too. My only gripes are ANC always defaults on and wont stay off. It changes sound profile. The tap functions are too sensitive so randomly changes when i put them on or adjust fit so I diabled them in app ( nice app feature) Last but not least, BT pairing can be flakey and require reset with charging case. Overall I really like these for the great sound, build and fit. Almost five stars if not for the gripes.

I bought this I think a month or 3 weeks ago when it was in sale. I found the review on YouTube and the guy love it so I was like me try it . I love it. I think it's better than my beats and apple AirPod . Im really happy with this purchase. Good thing I bought two one for me and husband . He loves it too .

I got the Reflect Flow Pros when they were on a good sale and I like em. Only con being it looks like the lanyard on the case got caught on something sharp you know and has a bit of a tear. But I don't think it'll matter too much. Just thought I'd mention it.

I have been using these headphones for a few weeks now and they are hands down the best. I'm more of a Skullcandy because of the bass but JBL not only knocks it out of the park with that, but the Ambient control also gave it push it needed to win me over. the multiple microphones are great as well. I thought I would never find a pair that could be heard so clear even outside. even the unboxing was great. very different from the competition. the only thing that is missing is the ability to set individual gesture controls for each headset instead of being grouped. implement that and you will definitely have a winner. all in all, I'm glad I made the switch.

Received mine 3 days ago and let me just say wow. Blown away, perfect separation and tonal balance. I am an audio purist and these blow me away. They are so comfortable you forget you have them on

I have now got the perfect fit dont budge when at the gym brilliant. The sound quality with ANC is amazing and cant fault it.

2 wee issues the instruction booklet is to small print for my eyes.

I also have had to disable auto shutdown which is irksome. This is only workaround when I go to Gym and dont want to take the Case. I have Buds paired with Smart Watch and Phone and cannot connect by time I drive 10.mins for either Watch or Phone.

Great purchase and delighted with value for money.

Had these for about a month now, at first I wasn't happy because they kept pausing music due to them not being 'fit' in my ear - infra red sensing issues - turns out by factory resetting them and reperforming the fitting procedure via the app was the way to fix this - better documentation on the fitting would have been helpful.

After this has been sorted, the product has great sound and are easy enough to wear and use with the functions explained clearly, I'm now glad to have made this purchase.

Assuming the fitting procedure in the app does adjust the infra red system to your ear (there is little mention in the booklet if this is how it works), it may be an idea to allow the procedure to function when 'not fitted' as if these ever get over adjusted, the procedure can't be activated to refit them as putting them normally in my ear is no longer enough for them to detect being fitted in my ear, a factory reset is then required. This may just be my inexperience talking though but if this is the purpose of the fitting procedure, then it doesn't make sense for it to only adjust to a closer fit, alternatively explain that a reset is needed to go the other way!

These are very well made with secue fit and good strong base. However the ambulance sound setting is no good for cycling as the microphone placement means all you get is wind noise. The app that is compatible with the ear pods lack the ability to fully adapt the touch press action individually. All that said still very good for what I purchased them for (running)

Keep falling out no matter which size is fitted. The earbuds keep disconnecting and sometimes I have only one playing which is super annoying at the gym when smashing a workout. Happens all the time. For this kind of money paid I'd expect something better.

Bought these a couple of weeks ago at a heavily discounted price and very happy with them, the noise cancelling is fantastic as are the talk through and ambient aware features, they connect seamlessly and sound awesome. Only gripe is after a few hours they begin to hurt my ears, they are however comfy for the first hour or two

After losing one of my UA flash buds I decided to try these out. I must say functionality and sound these are absolutely amazing. Only difference I would suggest is a better wing option. The ua flash tips were much better fit and held all day. Still having trouble finding just the right fit with these ones

I brought these a few weeks ago to replace my true wireless Flash-X. At first they seemed good, easy to connect and setup and good quality sound. The earphones don’t sit as tightly into the ear as the flash and flash-x earphones. After trying all the different attachments and finding the best fit I was able to keep them in, but they loosen up quickly when running and once they a wet from sweat or rain.
Biggest problem is that the buttons are very sensitive, and causes the the earbuds to pause or skip frequently. Walking in the rain the drops would cause the earbuds to stop/start. I also found it frustrating that the earbuds cannot be turned off or re-synced without the case. One earbud disconnected while out on a run and I had no way of reconnecting until I got home to the case. While the features are nice, they don’t feel as practical as the older flash-x, so I’m returning and buying a new set of flash-x once back in stock.

Sound quality is good. But the reason I bought them was for the ANC and for use when working out; unfortunately they fail at both and hence the low score. They say they’re a secure and won’t fall out… but they do.
As soon as you start to sweat they get loose and the ANC becomes pointless. It’s also annoying and you find yourself constantly pushing them back in. I had a Bose pair before and they stayed in no matter what.
The ANC in general isn’t great.
Stick to headphones if you want ANC and security.

I bought this earbuds a month ago. First few days I was completely satisfied: good sound quality, great case for earbuds, amazing battery life. But the size of earbuds is too big for my ears even with the smallest grips. I used before this earbuds JBL Reflect Flow. They have serious problems with factory defects. But they were a little bit smaller. So I could run, cycle etc without fear to lost it. With JBL Reflect Flow Pro I lost one earbud at the first cycle workout. I found it then. But I do not want this situation to happen again. I had to sell these headphones

The tool is super. The app EQ does not change the sound much.
The biggest problem is that I can’t turn on the headphones. Only if I put it back in the case and then take it out again.
Dear Support, can you help me with this? How to turn on earbuds without a case?

I'm still getting used to some of the gestures, but like them overall!

They connect automatically if you have your Bluetooth on and the battery lasts for really long periods

Bought the JBL Reflect Flo Pro at the same time as Bose Sound Sport and the Beats Fit Pro True Wireless. The JBL was the 2nd most expensive and the sound was the poorest in quality (bass, etc.) I kept the Bose and have been using them for a few weeks and love them. I was very surprised at the JBL as I absolutely love the Flip 6 speaker (we have a Flip 5 too, which is awesome.)

Just bought them a week ago. Good sound quality. Very good build, but a bit bulky. ANC needs improvement. A bit pricey. AirPods are still better.

I have tested this product for a few weeks now. At first, it costs a bit of time to find out which rubber plugs fits best for your ears. After this struggle, the sound of the JBL is very good. Music, calls, books it al works well. When I wanted to reconnect with my phone, it was very easy. However, connecting with my laptop after I was connected with my phone was very difficult. Once the JBL is connected the connection is very stable. The battery of the JBL is also very good. I was unable to use the JBL while jogging, because I had the feeling they would fall out of my ears. Also eating is not possible without falling out ear plugs.

I have had these for a few weeks and i am very suprised about the sound. It is crystal clear and the bass is perfect inside and outside.

The noise cancelling works very well. It does fit perfectly and they won't fall out. I've tried several ones in the past but this one is the best. You also can customize the sound via the JBL headphones app.

The battery life is suprisingly good. You can listen to music for more than 3 days without charging them. The case can give you 20hours on top so you are never left without some music.

I can reccomend these without a doubt

I have tested this product and it is amazing. The in ear grip that it has is just wonderfull. I had to get used to it first. And played a bit with the different ear fit rubbers that came with them, but when i had the correct fit in my ear it was a very good product. It is practically not able to fall out of my ear while doing excercises. I would definetly recommend this product if you are working out and in need of some music (without a cable

I have had these headphones for almost a month now and I am very pleased to have bought them. In the past, I always had headphones which did not fit in my ear properly, which caused them to fall out, especially whilst exercising/running. These headphones come with a variety of different buds/rings, so you can customise them to fit into your ear. In the beginning I had a little trouble connecting them to both my phone/laptop and switching between these. However, after using them for a while this becomes a little easier. The touch features are great, enabling me to pause/play/call etc. at any time. The noise cancelling also works very well, I have gotten multiple comments on the (lack of the background noise whilst phoning.
Overall; super happy with the fit of the headphones and the quality of the sound!

These ear buds are great to wear while sporting. If it is in the gym or doing outside sports. Because of the different sizes of powerfins and eartips it could fit every type of ear. It makes me happy not having to hear the awful music at the gym. The noise cancelling could be a bit better, it works great while listening to music at a high volume, with lower volumes it could do better. You can manually adjust it in the JBL app, which helps, but having it adapt by itself would be more value for money. In comparisson the sound is great! As you may expect from JBL. You can use the equalizer in the app, but is it not nescessary. Even with maling calls,sound is crystal clear and the microphones pick up the entire conversation and not too much background noise (this is what friends told me when I called them and asked. The battery life is great, When the buds are emtpy, recharging them is the case is real easy and a quick charge.The case on the other hand is a bit bulky, in my opinition, it does not need to be that big. There is one thing a really don't like that much with the JBL Reflect Flow Pro buds. Connecting it to a device is quite difficult. I never had any problems with that in the past with JBL headphones. But once connected, it won't lose that connection. Which is great, unless you want to connect them to an other device. All in all, you get great value for your money when you compare them to other and most often more expensive earbuds.

These Jbl earbuds, are another level. They fit perfectly in your ear, the Jbl comes with 3 other earplugs, so you can adjust them the way you want. I used the earbuds while cycling, but also when cooking and cleaning, and they stay in your ear at all times. I cyclelet with them in the rain, and cause they are waterresistant i didnt need to worry about a thing. While cycling, i used smart ambient, a nice feature, so you enjoy your music but you are aware of your surrounding. The case where the earbuds came in, are very usefull, once the case is fully charged, you pair your earbuds easily with any device with bluetooth. I recommend this product.

I have been using the JBL Reflect Flow Pro for about two weeks now. Previously, I had the JBL Reflect Mini NC. The price of the Flow Pro's is around 70 euros higher. The case is slightly bigger and also the headphones are a bit bigger. This is not annoying, they still fit nicely in my ears, and they don't fall out when I'm running. Furthermore, the noise-cancelling of the Flow Pro's is slightly better compared to the Mini's. Overall they have a more premium feel and when I wear them for a longer time, they do not hurt my ears, which the mini NCs do after a couple of hours of usage. In the JBL application, you can tune the sound for a better sound profile matching your music style, which I think is a real nice feature (featured for both. Moreover, the sound quality of the Flow Pro is slightly better, but not necessarily worth the 70 euros extra investment. Overall, I am very happy with them but if you don't care about that slight difference in quality and a more premium feel, and do not have the extra money to spend, I would go for the JBL reflect mini NC.

I bought these based on a number of reviews. I wanted buds with wings as I find the non winged types fall out. they are also resonably sized compared to some other brands.They sound good too and I like the fact that the sound can be cutomied using th app. I could not find theses locally to see and try which was dissapointing. on the downside, I have found them a little uncomfortable after using for a couple of hours or more. Also pairing is not as easy as it should be when moving from one device to another. Overall very happy, but please make it easier to pair and support 2 devices. Plus mke the wing tips a bit softer and they will be much more comfortable. Thank you

So I am an Airpod Pro owner. Before the Pros came out, I used over the ear headphones. Airpod Pros quickly became my go to. Now that I have these JBL's, I swap between the two. These are great in many many areas and have alot to offer, but there are just a few things that, at least, bothered me. It could be because I've only had these for less than a month. So i made a list of Pros and Cons to help you.

Pros:
- the sound is amazing, beats Airpod Pros Hands down
- I can not say enough about the sound, so i had to say it twice
- app is intuitive and adjusting the EQ can really put these up above the rest
- they fit in your ear nicely (no stem) and compact
- great for working out, does not fall out
- long battery life
- they look expensive, nice and sleek
- no issues with phone calls, very clear
- connects to my iPhone quicker than my airpods do
- touch gestures for the L can be different from the R, by changing in the app...I keep it the same
- its JBL, you know you're getting a quality product and support

Cons
- the size of case is the biggest issue for me. Which is still the reason why i will reach for my airpod pros instead of these. It is better for working out, connecting to a gym bag, than carrying around when on the run. With that being said, if I am around the house and just need to listen to music, i will grab the JBL's
- touch gestures can get confusing, which is why i keep the L / R the same. (I've only owned for a month and it may take time for me to play around more)

in Conclusion, these are the best sounding earbuds I have owned. I hope they last a very very long time. JBL puts out great products

JBL nailed it with this one, amazing battery life and great fit. The sound is really good and ANC works really well. Haven't got the chance to test out the waterproof and dustproof capabilities so can't comment on that.

Good ANC as its headline feature. Wind noise resistance could be better if you compared it to the Bose Quite Comfort but as a sport earphone it compares well with Jabra Elite. The sound is clean and balanced with emphasis on the bass. JBL positioned this with a decent battery life if nothing spectacular.
The wing stabilizes the earbud well, on ear controls are more app setting dependent.

It’s all I would expect from the brand. Always had their speakers and first time trying earphones. Good prise for the greatest quality. I’m very happy with them. Really recommend it!

Best Pair of Buds Ever! I've used a lot wireless buds before. These are the best I've had in my ears.

The sound is fantastic, the fit is great, and the battery life is almost unbelievable.

I don't do a lot of working out, but I do use these while detailing cars, and I haven't had one fall out, let alone even move.

If you want good ear buds for activities, these are the ones for you!

These are definitely the best overall earbuds I have ever owned. They have great bass, amazing clarity and best of all a perfect fit for my ears.
I have used them for a few activities now, the review for each one of them is as followed.
- Audio quality: 5 out of 5 for a wireless earbuds.
- Fit: 5 out of 5.
- Noise cancellation / Ambient Aware: 3.5 out of 5.
- Comfort (How long can you wear comfortably: 4 out of 5 .

First, let's start with the great things about this product. I LOVE the packaging. I'm really big on the way products are packaged as, for me, the packaging is like smelling a delicious meal before I eat it. The sound quality is just what I expect from JBL products—clarity, crisp and quality. The podcasts I listen to were clear, the music I listen to comes through beautifully... I couldn't ask for more. Well, I could... and I am. What made these headphones difficult for me to fully enjoy was the fact that they did not and could not stay in my ears. I tried every combination of fins and ear plugs and they just would not stay in! They would for a moment and I would think everything is great until I bent over or turned my head or just waited long enough for them to ease their way out of my ears. It was frustrating and I found myself going back to my JBL TUNE225TWS, which I have zero complaints with. If you can get these bad boys to stay in your ears, you'll love them. If you're like me, you'll find yourself going back to something a little more reliable. Overall, a pretty decent pair of ear buds.

I've had these headphones for over a week now and have been testing them out with music and movies in different settings. I really love that I can tap the left ear bud and I can activate noise cancelling or Ambient aware. Compared to other in ear headphones, these JBL Reflect Flor Pro's sound really clear and have deep bass for punchy music. I also like the fact that you can change the size of the ear wings and ear tips; made them so much more comfortable to ware and they didn't fall even during gym workouts.

With every new set of JBL earbuds that come out the bar gets raised higher and higher. These are a perfect example! Starting out with what some may consider the most important category, sound quality. The sound quality of these buds when tweaked to your personal preference using the JBL Headphones app is amazing! I listen to different genres including classical, old school r&b, rap, and hip-hop. The sound is impressive throughout! The highs are crisp and clear, the mids are full, and the bass is booming! The app comes with a few presets but when you adjust the EQ to your liking it really highlights the capabilities of the audio quality. Another category that it checks the the box in is battery life. It's advertised as 10hrs without using the ANC (adaptive noise cancelation) with an additional 20 hrs in reserve charging packed into the usb-c/wireless charging case. That's a total of 30hrs of battery time off of one full charge! If you're using the ANC then you can cut the battery life by about 20%. Also if your on the go and time is of the essence a quick 10 mins gets you 1hr of listening! This should be enough battery life for even the most frequent earbud users. The fitment can be customized to your personal fit by utilizing the 3 different sizes of included powerfins and earbud tips. When the correct size powerfins are used these buds stay in place! Whether you're running, cycling, lifting, climbing, or relaxing you don't have that constant concern that one may fall out. Speaking of being active in these buds did I mention that they are IP68 rated! That's means that they are extremely waterproof and dust proof! So even if surfing is your activity of choice or 4 wheeling in Dubai these will be your earbud of choice. While your out there hanging 10 in Hawaii or climbing Mount Everest these are perfect for keeping in touch and having a clear quality conversation with the 6 voice clarity microphones (3 per bud)! Even in the midst of the most noisy backgrounds the person on the other end will be able to hear you like your standing next to them. The are bluetooth 5.0 with fast pair technology which makes connecting them to your favorite devices a breeze and lightening fast after the initial pairing. The touch commands are accurate and responsive which can also be configured to your liking in the headphone app. They are compatible with your favorite smart assistants (ex: Google, Alexa, etc) I could go on and on about these loaded buds, but I think you get the picture by now. The only downside I can think of is the initial slight soreness that you experience is you aren't use to the powerfins being in your ear. Nothing different than what you deal with when using any earbuds of any style, and that goes away once your ears get use to the foreign objects. Over all these buds get 2 thumbs up from me!

I like the fact that the ear buds are compact in size and come with multiple sized ear fittings for you to obtain the right fit. The charging case is also compact and lightweight compared to some of the other JBL ear buds. The case also comes with a wrist loop so that you can keep them at your fingertips. The sound quality is standard JBl quality however, I will say the noise canceling technology is one of the best on the market. I like the multiple tap features and that you can use one or both of the buds at anytime and it pauses your music when you remove the buds from your ear. I do wish it had the feature to increase and decrease the volume on the buds themselves rather than having to have the phone next to you. Otherwise, standard JBL quality and no real disappointment.

I did try almost every newly released JBL earbuds since 2019, and this is by far the best one.
The first thing I want to mention the mic on these is excellent. There were no JBL earbuds I did try with such microphone quality. I currently have the 3rd generation of that white earbud released a month ago, Fits Pro and Buds A(from the other major brands). When I switched from JBL reflect flaw pro to those, no one could tell any difference, and for some of those, I sounded better)! You don’t have to use both earbuds: With just one earbud, either left or right, you'll have an excellent call quality!

So, these are premium earbuds, and you'll feel that build quality and materials are excellent right away. The charging case might feel a bit large, yet that’s not an issue for me!!
There are four different wings, and I had to try all of those with varying ear tips until I could find the right fit for me.
Battery life is good enough. It depends on how you are going to use it! Wireless charging and USB type C are there for you))
JBL headphones app will let you customize the touch controls, and you can use the app to change the volume using google assistant or Alexa, control noise canceling, etc. Also, through the app, you can customize the EQ and create your EQ profile to get the sound you like. Also, you can update the firmware through the app. I have never had any connection issues on my iPhone, and it will connect flawlessly!
Talking about sound quality, JBL always had great-sounding earbuds with rich bass, which I prefer most of the time; and this one is by far the best sounding one for me!! I love how these earbuds sound. It is loud and clear.
I don’t want my review to sound like an advertisement because had I not liked these this much would never put such a review! If you are looking for a pair of earbuds that you can use in the GYM, for phone calls, and simply for everyday music listening, you can't be mistaken here!!

In the competitive world of workout focus earbuds, the JBL Reflect Flow Pros are a big winner!
It starts with an attractive box. Similar to the packaging in past JBL products, there box has a magnetic closing front hardcover with a window to show off the buds and charging case inside. Once open, everything is very well packed. On top I found the left and right ear buds and charging case. Above and below, I found the accessories. JBL includes a USB-A to USB-C charging cable. Yes, the case charges via USB-C thankfully! JBL also includes different sizes ear tips and “wings” to help you attain the best fit possible for the buds. They refer to the wings as “power fins” and the really do lock the buds into the shape of your ear for more rigorous activity. They range in sizes XS, S, M, L so I am sure most people would find a combination that works. The standards worked well for me. Last thing included is documentation and QuickStart guide. I was pleased to spot a QR code right away that took me to the App Store to download the JBL Headphones app (more on that later).
Once out of the box, the buds and case both had a level of charge on them. I placed them into their case just to see how it felt. They’re magnetic when held close to their respective slots, so there is zero difficultly placing them into the charging case. The case has 2 indicator lights, one inside and one outside to alert you they have placed correctly and also reveal a charge level for the case. Also it is nice that the case includes a built in lanyard to help grab it from a backpack and help from losing it. When I pulled the buds back out of the case, they immediately went into pairing mode. I went into my phone settings and added the Bluetooth to pair. JBL is using the Bluetooth 5.0 standard on these which isn’t the latest, but close enough for very good battery life. JBL claims the battery lasts 10 hours with active noise cancelling off and 8 hours with it on. The case will extend you out an additional 20 hours (ANC off) and 16 hours (ANC on). If you’re in a pinch, a 10 min charge can add 1 hour of music listening. Lastly, these are IP86 certified for sweat, water and dust proofing.
I will say that if you haven’t used a workout style bud with “fins” on them before, they can be tricky to put into your ear. I start with the bud tip back just a bit and rotate them forward as I place them into my ear. This locks the front of the powerfin into the crevice of my ear. It also helps the in-ear tip seat into the ear canal for better sound. Feels odd for a minute or two, but then becomes quite comfortable.
On to the app! JBL has done an excellent job with this app! The app quickly identified the product and I was able to select it. It then has a base menu displaying the power levels of both buds individually (yes in case your use just one at a time), and also the case power level. There are also toggles for Active Noise Cancelling, Ambient Sound Control, and Smart Audio & Video. They have also included a very friendly EQ with saveable custom presets. The EQ allows an infinite amount of tuning with at least 20 EQ points able to be added (very impressive). You can then name your custom saved EQ. The app also allows more customization from there, by allowing you to adjust how gestures work on each side of the ear buds, auto-off features, standby functions, play/pause, Voice Assistant setup, a check-my-fit feature, and a find-my-buds feature. Voice assistance supported are Siri, Alexa, and Google (I only tried Siri, which worked beautifully).
How do they sound? If you’re familiar with JBL signature sound, then you know what you’re getting. These sound amazing! The sounds is slightly warm, just a hair above flat neutral. There’s a slight edge towards bass, but I appreciate that in a workout focused audio product. I wouldn’t call them bass heavy at all tho, but you are able to push that via the EQ if you prefer. And really, that is what I love so much about the sound from these. A ton of customization if you want it, but it sounds amazing if you’re not into making changes. The volume was more than adequate for me and I found max volume remained very clear, although too loud for my ears more than a few seconds. I found for pure listening, the best sound was with ANC turned on, ambient sounds off, and smart audio to normal. I wouldn’t recommend this setup for running as you cannot hear much due to the ANC. Ambient mode solves this problem beautifully to keep you aware of outdoor sounds. This can easily be toggles with a tap on the left ear bud (or programmed to another function entirely). JBL left a lot of personalization on these with the gesture functions. You can set them for voice assistant controls, volume, ANC toggle, play/pause and more. They also can take phone calls. With 3 mic setup, they calls were clear and the person on the other end of my call was easily able to hear me without issues.
Overall, JBL has really nailed these. I think they compete with the best of the best in the workout earbud space, and I would highly recommend them! I’d even recommend them for general use as well!
