Extremely Durable

I've had them for a few months now, and they have been really comfortable and has great volume.
Just earlier today, I got wacked in my face, and the headphones fell about 40-60 ft down a hill, to hit an escalator covering, then fell into a drain. I fished it out of the drain, and it came out with little to no damage. So, you could say it's very durable.
If you need headphones for anything, I recommend these ones.
I received this product as a Christmas gift last year and I use them almost everyday since then. The battery life is awesome and sometimes I feel like I get more out of it than was advertised. I love the multipoint feature and quick charge as well and the colour (blue) is beautiful. A small gripe I have is that the band can be slightly uncomfortable on my ears if I wear them for too long. Outside of that the headphones are generally comfortable and have great sound quality. Would recommend!
I've had my pair for abt 3 years now. They're better than more expensive ones I've had. Battery life is fantastic, sounds good, padding is comfy and doesn't crack or flake. As a commuter with little kids, these have taken a beating - thrown into my work bag, diaper bag, back seat, you name it. The only negatives I've really had, is that it slips some when I've got my head down and sometimes the ear pads make my ears too toasty. But honestly, I've had JBL both on ear and ear buds, and I don't want anything else.
I love the headphones good quality but suddenly they stopped charging I even used a new charger but it didn't work. My headphones' lifespan probably ended but it said that they last longer than 4-6 years. But mine stopped for half a year, which is confusing. I was just wondering is that normal?

Thanks for your feedback. We're here to help. Here are some troubleshooting steps that can help isolate the issue with your JBL Tune 520BT. First, power cycle by pressing and holding the power button for 30 seconds while the unit is not plugged into a power source, to see if the unit will unlock, while it's extremely uncommon, try to use another wall outlet to be certain that the issue is not with the outlet then clean the charging port with compressed air.
If the power/battery light indicator is On, check the adapter and make sure that the rating is 5V/2.3A or higher. Next is reset, turn on the speaker then press and hold "Volume +" and "Volume -" for more than five seconds. The speaker will turn off, and reboot to factory default. You may need to 'forget' the speaker in Bluetooth settings on your phone/tablet to pair it again. If the issue remains, please contact us.
The worst… it’s a useless headset… actually a headache as iPad Pro frequently disconnects it….
Please don’t buy this junk

We're here to help with your JBL Tune 520BT. Please ensure it is within 10 feet of your device with a clear line of sight (no obstacles). Try to forget/unpair the headphones on your device and initiate a reset. To reset your headphones, press and hold the "Volume +" and "Volume -" buttons for more than 5 seconds. Reset will wipe all previous settings and pairings, so it will be necessary to pair your unit with your devices again. Lastly, try to connect the headphones to a different device (phone/tablet/music player) to determine if the issue lies with the headphones or the initial device you paired them with.
