Decent sound. Poor connectivity
on April 17, 2021

Recently bought a pair of these and they really have a nice sound for the money, the frame is good but can put a fair amount of pressure after a few hours of use. They are, indeed, pure bass experience, so best suited for that type of music, and if you want to listen to something that's not bass-dependent, you must play with the equalizer and cut the bass out completely.
The biggest problem I'm having is the connectivity. I can't connect them to any of the PCs, laptops and MacBooks (Win10/Big Sur 11.2.3), but the mobile connection is great, and they sound great. Even the mic is good for the phone calls but due to its placement, it picks up everything around you.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for reaching out. Make sure your device is turned on, is charged, and is in range of the PC you want to connect to. Then, try the following: Turn off your Bluetooth device, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on. Make sure your Bluetooth device is in range. If your Bluetooth device is unresponsive or sluggish, check to make sure it’s not too close to any other USB device that’s plugged into a USB 3.0 port. Unshielded USB devices can sometimes interfere with Bluetooth connections. If you need further assistance, contact JBL Customer Service.

Very Confused

I am very happy with this product. I got it to connect to my phone and all but I have some issues. I was very careful on what I was doing and found that they are not connecting to my PC. (Dell, Windows 10) It does not seem to pick up the headphones. The phone can do it but the PC can't. Is there something wrong with them? My PC is okay with other bluetooth devices.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Terrible

I litterly bought these today. I purchased due to my school work being online due to Covid 19. These are the worst headphones I have purchased first off not noise canceling. I have better noise canceling from the headphones that came with my cell phone. Now I charged these up for many hours. Didn't hold a charge. But when I tried them out with my laptop within 2 minutes of my video turtoring (not live) Litterly sounds like robots or slowed down completely. REconnection sounds fine then again 2 minutes in same thing. try again and still nothing. Do not waste your money on these. Worst ever nd will be returning tomorrow for a full refund. I will probably never purchase a product from this company again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Sound volume is low! Did not meet my expectation!
on June 30, 2020
Posted by: Anonymous777
My headphone keeps making this plastic cracking sound when I turn my head left and right. Button control is suck. Build quality is cheap plastic. Comfort level is good. No bass at all on stock sound profile. I have to download the app to put the bass boost mode on. Even with bass boost mode enable, I can still heard sound distortion on medium sound volume. Sound volume is low like I have to crank it up to 70% - 80% volume. Decent passive noise.cancellation. I am thinking of returning this unit for a refund. Did not meet my expectation especially the sound volume department. Save your money and get something that has good sound volume at 50% volume.
