JBL Live Pro 2 - True Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds up to 40 Hours of Playback with Wireless

Amazing sound with high quality low-high drivers on these JBL's. Noise cancelling is best in class for these earbuds, and the pass-through mode for still hearing conversation with them in works very well. They last FOREVER. I work 12 hour shifts and can easily get through a shift with the bud in my right ear all day. Over my hour lunch break I put it back in the case and that charge is enough to get me through an entire day with no interruptions. In my experience the advertised 40 total hours of listening with the charging case is very accurate. I measured it at 38.5 hours with the volume set to about 80-85%. I'm sure you could easily get 40+ hours if using them at 50% volume. The charging case is great, feels very high quality. Charges wirelessly on a charging pad or with USBC input. Charges very quickly, roughly 1.5-2 hours for a full charge if you are charging them with a low volt charger as you are supposed to as not to damage the internal battery. *NOTE* please people, don't charge any of your earbuds of any brand with a 100 watt fast charger, you will damage the battery over time I promise. The JBL app is one of the best earbud companion apps I've used. It blows the BEATS app out of the water and is much better than the majority of its competition. You can change EQ, noise cancelling, and touch control programming quickly and easily. Speaking of touch controls, they are located on the stem of each bud and work very reliably in my experience. 1 tap for pause, 2 taps for skip ahead, 1 tap hold for voice assistant. 2 taps then hold on the 2nd tap for pairing mode. Haven't had any issues with accidental touches over the last 6+ months of using them every day. The sound profile is rich and deep, with these high quality drivers after Harmon kardon joined with JBL, they are much more well rounded than anything else in the 150 dollar range. Highs are crisp and satisfying and lows have a great little rumble without muddling the mids. Soundstage isnt too open like you get with some of the partial In ear designs but doesn't feel closed off and stuffy either. My father in law was an audio engineer in Hollywood for 40 years and worked for almost every major band under the sun as well as the Jimmy Kimmel show for many years, and when he tried these out on our last visit he was genuinely impressed. He is normally a Sony or Bose guy but expressed interest in buying a pair of these for around the house. As far as fitment goes, I go with the middle sized silicone tips and they work great for me. There are small, medium and large tips that come in the package. They are more comfortable than the beats I have and far more comfortable than my airpods pro. I can use them for 12 hours straight without ear fatigue. They are ported enough where they don't feel stuffy in my ears and don't make my ears itchy like most other buds do after only a couple of hours. Overall, I highly recommend these earbuds from JBL. They are the best value for money in this price range--bar none. I would take these all day everyday over my airpods pro and that's saying something as those are no slouch either. If you are on the fence about these, I'd advise you to just buy them and see for yourself. As someone who uses earbuds for 12 hours a day, 48 hours a week, these are my go-to buds and I've tried at least 20 other models from all the major brands. Read more

At time of writing Ive had these headphones about a year. These are my first set of TWS (true wireless stereo) headphones. I was hesitant to get this type of headphones thinking I would easily lose the earbud, but so far I have not. They do have the ability to play a chime if you are trying to find a misplaced earbud, which is nice (ive used this more than once) I find them to be very comfortable to wear, though I do get a bit of fatigue after a few hours and have to take them out for a bit. They stay pretty well put even when active (working out, cycling, etc) The noise cancelling is great. Cuts out the low frequency drone on planes and trains, background chatter at airports, etc; even without music playing. You do still hear people talking to you, but it muffles it significantly...if someone is trying to talk to me with the headphones in listening to music, it takes a minute for me to realize it. Wind buffeting is usually pretty minimal; I wear these headphones cycling and its usually not noticeable amount of buffeting. Im not an audiophile, but I think the sound quality is very good, and has good lows/bass for an earbud. Battery life is excellent. You can get probably 8 hours straight out of the headphones, but since the case charges them, if you take them out and put them in the case for a bit they will top off. I dont normally wear them until the battery dies, but Id say you can probably get 3 or 4 full charges from the case. Recharging the headphones is quick, and recharging the case itself is also quick (USB C). The earbuds self-locate (magnetically) into the case, so they quickly stow away and also dont just fall out when you open the case. The case has 3 led lights that indicate charge level of the case. The case lid feels a little flimsy, but so far it has held up fine. I disabled the tap actions of the headphones, but it does have the functionality and are customizable in the app. The app is pretty good and easy to use. With my iPhone, sometimes when i answer a call it does not use the headphones and i have to manually select that which is kind of annoying but not a deal breaker. Im sure the AirPods would be better integrated for answering calls. Not sure if they were on sale at the time I purchased them, but they were $100 at that time (fall 2023) and now are $150. Id say they are still a good deal even at the higher price, but they were an absolute BARGAIN at the price I bought them. Read more

These are great headphones! They stay in my ears better than others I’ve used in the past and have really good sound quality. Connecting them to my iPhone was quick and easy. I use them every day for music and calls, and it’s convenient to skip songs or answer the phone directly from the earbuds. They come with a nice charging case and feel like good quality overall. I even accidentally washed them once and they still work great! I would definitely buy these again. I also got them for a great price around cyber Monday! Read more

These headphones have been great for work, long battery life, clear sound, noise canceling works wonders. However, sometimes when I put them in the case I think maybe they don’t sit right or don’t fully register being in the case and they give feedback. A high pitch noise that I have a hard time toggling trying to get it to shut off. Also when I’m outside and it’s even the slightest bit windy, they’ll keep pausing and unpausing on its own? Not really sure why. Hasn’t been a huge deal for me as I’m not using them outside a lot right now but I’m sure for others this might be an issue. Overall, I think the price is worth it though and you get what you pay for. These are really honestly minor inconveniences but one’s worth mentioning Read more
