[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited to try the JBL Tune Buds 2 earbuds because I work from home and frequently join virtual meetings and calls, and my previous earbuds were problematic when using with my meeting app software. Fortunately I got my hands on these JBL Tune Buds 2's, so I could evaluate if they could replace my standard laptop earbuds and have good enough audio quality to use for work calls.
The JBL Tune Buds 2's definitely delivered, and has a more classic bluetooth headsets look and feel to it.
My personal experience with them was intuitive out of the box — I paired them with my laptop in seconds without even having to open the instruction manual. I expected good audio quality with good bass and decent noise cancellation, and as expected, JBL did not fall short. The sound was clean, clear and crisp - with a deep, discernable bass that was not overbearing. It engulfed me in an immersive audio experience, to the point where I had to take them off to check that others couldn't hear it (they couldn't). I did a few test calls and meetings, and the feedback was positive - my audio came in loud and clear to no one had any problems hearing me. I had noise cancellation support, ambient mode support and mute controls all accessible by touching the earbuds. I'll continue to use these for work as it's convenient and does what I need.
One standout feature is the sleek black design and charging case. The design feels sturdy and well-made, and I appreciated the flashing lights used to convey the different states. For me, these earbuds have a professional look to them, making them feel suitable for the workplace.
My honest verdict? I'd say between these or the JBL Tune Flex 2's you can't go wrong with either - with the Flex 2's giving slightly more portability for workouts given its smaller bud size and shape.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After several attempts to use these earbuds, changing the tips to attempt to make them fit, I have found they are not made to fit my ears. The sound quality is good, but I was not able to get a good seal with the included tips so ambient noise was intrusive. These would be better if there was a wider selection of sizes for the tips.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for your feedback. To achieve a secure fit, angle the ear tip slightly downward to make it easier to insert into your ear, then gently twist the earbud to fit it securely into the shape of your ear. Alternatively, you can try other ear tips from a third-party retailer that is compatible with our JBL Tune Buds 2 and will fit your ear. If you need further assistance, please contact us.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The best wireless earbuds I've had. I haven't really used earbuds much in my past, but after trying these, I'm in love. These fit my somewhat smaller ears perfectly, and include 3 sizes to fit. When i opened these for the first time, they instantly connected to my Galaxy S25 with Android's new device pairing abilities. Any time I use these, they're super quick to connect. They charge super quick and maintain their battery pretty well. I thought the app that goes along with these earbuds wouldn't do much, however it has so many features to change bass, noise canceling, button features, and even install updates. I detail cars at home and sometimes outside of home, and these things are amazing to bring with me and use in a noisy environment, such as when using an air compressor for cleaning, the noise canceling works well. All while having super deep bass and high quality audio. If you do any type of outdoor work or work in a louder environment, these earbuds are amazing.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used them while painting in an industrial setting. The noise canceling was great. My music was clear as a bell even with machines running in the background which totally made my work more enjoyable. Even though I was sweating, the ear buds remained stationary in my ear. The option for having ambient sound to be able to communicate with out taking them out is even more impressive. They have amazing bass response for such little speakers. The treble is on par and maybe a little better then most other brands I have tried. The app has been reliable making connectivity super easy. It has great features which is key to using bluetooth devices. The case is compact enough to carry almost anywhere. It charges them super fast. The battery life is awesome. It lasted for the entire work day. I was stunned to be honest. I have now started wearing them at the house cooking, cleaning, and relaxing because they just work, and improve my music listening experience. Thanks.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used these running around work, at the gym, and while doing daily choices. They sound great, keep out un wanted noise, and have great bt connectivity. Controls are fairly simple, music quality is great, and battery life was amazing! Fit was good too!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] JBL has been working hard on perfecting the noise canceling ear buds and it shows. These are the best buds yet. They fit really well, are not overly bulky and provide top tier noise cancelling. Some older models would produce a crunch around high decibels which was really annoying, but the Tune Buds 2 seems to have fixed that entirely! Sound quality is warm, with plenty of low end punch and just the right amount of roundness. Sometimes I will just wear the buds purely for the tranquility that the noise canceling has to offer. Battery lasts all day and gets a charge from its compact little case. Keep it up JBL! This will be a tough one to top!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great sound quality and useful for everyday earbud usage like at work, which makes use of the ambient aware feature pretty well to know what’s going on around me. Very cool tie in to the JBL app and is useful for adjusting the balance of bass in the headphones as I like lots of rap/r&b. Design is convenient and low key, but earbuds can fall out of your ears at the gym or doing moderate physical activity. Don’t love how sensitive the touch controls on the side can be, as they can skip/pause a song without intending to. Overall these headphones have great value for price point, and have great battery life to last all day long, would recommend!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used these a few times now and they are nice. Sound quality as expected. They are a little chunky for my liking and do not fit my ear very well. Must be me though. I had my wife try them and she thought they fit just fine. Having had several pairs of JBL earbuds I will say there are better models and there are worse. These are your average earbuds.
