My son bought this with his own money here is his review:
I really like these headphones they look cool, they are not heavy on my ears and head, it charges really quick and I enjoy listening to music on these. Its really soft on my ear and a great price. I would recommend this to everyone.

Well made, great sound!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this in the mail today c/o JBL.
Well made on ear headphones with thick cushions finished with leatherette and woven fabric covered headband. Used it for exactly 3 hours, still was comfortable even when worn for extended periods. Sound was excellent. Hitting even those high pitched tweeter sounds and on point with those low, satisfyingly head-pounding bass undertones.
Definitely noise cancelling with convenient on-headphone buttons to turn on or off noise cancellation with “Ambient” and Walkthru” settings. Nicely done so you don’t have to take your headphones off when somebody walks up to strike a conversation.
Bluetooth connection was quick (under 5 seconds). Can connect with “Alexa” or can be used with Google Assistant.
A definite contender against all other “noise-cancelling” headphones out there with very nice, never before seen features. Will surely outrank the competition with it’s sleek design, durability, long battery life and very high quality sound. Definitely a homerun!

Sound as you would expect from JBL headphones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a high quality product, that has the kind of precision sound and technical features that JBL products are known for. I downloaded the JBL app, which allowed for customization of sound, which is really great!! The talk-thru, ambient aware modes are helpful too! Headphones are light and comfortable enough to use at gym. I might always prefer noise cancelling, but this over-ear model does a very good job keeping outside noise out. Linking to Alexa was easy enough. Still need to try Google Assistant.
On the negative side, Quick Start guide is a disaster to use (seriously, 18 languages in one?), and there is no downloadable version on the web site yet.

Here is my overall summary:
Things I liked: Sound quality, look and feel, weight, battery life, JBL My headphones App
Things to improve on: Buttons on side are really hard to distinguish by touch alone, use for phone calls is frustrating because have trouble hearing own voice, printing on Quick Start Guide is microscopic, basic bag/case would be nice

Quality sound at a low price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved these headphones for free as a JBL Backstage pass member, and I know that every new product that comes out is not always as good as it should be, and many are certainly not worthy of their pricetag. However these headphones sound awesome especially considering how much less they cost compared to some of the other over rated brands. A lot of churches use JBL for their main sound system and the do because JBL has a nice sound!

Great for the price

Bought these 4 weeks ago. I do not like the ear buds. I did not want to spend a fortune and tried the JBL 500 BT. I would pay double for these as the sound is on point. Another product that JBL foes not disappoint. Looking for an economical headphone these are it and you will be glad you did. Do not let the price fool you. I would buy these 10x over.
