The Good, the Loud, and the Not-So-Pretty
on January 28, 2024
Posted by: Vineet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Alright, let's ditch the boring tech jargon and get real about these JBL Tune 770NCs. Buckle up, because here comes the straight-up scoop from a fellow music lover:
The Good Stuff:
Battery life like a champ: These bad boys go on and on like a never-ending playlist. 50 hours with ANC? I dare you to listen to that many podcasts in a row! Plus, a quick 5-minute charge gives you 3 hours more juice, perfect for when you're caught short before heading out.
Comfy like your favorite hoodie: Seriously, these hug your ears like a well-worn beanie. The padding is plush, the headband's adjustable, and even after hours of rocking out, your noggin won't feel like it's been in a vice.
Peace out, noise pollution: The ANC does a solid job of silencing the outside world. Airplane rumble? Gone. Chatty coworkers? Vanished. You're in your own sonic sanctuary, baby.

The Not-So-Good Stuff:
Sound ain't no audiophile dream: Don't expect studio-quality precision here. The bass can get a bit boomy, and the overall sound isn't the crispiest. But hey, for everyday listening and pumping yourself up at the gym, they do the job just fine.
Plastic fantastic (not in a good way): The build quality leans towards the "budget-friendly" side. Sure, they're not gonna shatter if you drop them, but they don't exactly scream "luxury."
Sweat happens: These aren't exactly waterproof, so intense workouts might leave you with some soggy ear cups. Stick to light cardio and they'll be your gym buddy, but leave marathons for the truly sweatproof models.

The Verdict:
Look, the JBL Tune 770NCs aren't perfect, but they're a solid pair of headphones. They're comfy, have killer battery life, and do a decent job of silencing the world. If you're looking for a way to tune out the chaos and immerse yourself in your music, these are definitely worth checking out. Just don't expect mind-blowing audiophile sound or Olympic-level sweat resistance.

Just don't expect mind-blowing audiophile sound or Olympic-level sweat resistance.
Ultimately, the bass on these headphones is a double-edged sword. It's definitely their strong suit, but it might be a bit too much for some listeners. The key is to try them out yourself and see if they strike the right balance for you. If you crave that floor-shaking rumble, you'll be grinning from ear to ear. But if you prefer a more nuanced sound experience, you might want to keep searching.

Great sound as always, just not my favorite.
on February 17, 2024
Posted by: Daileyfix
from Roanoke, VA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound quality is good, as always. Good treble with punchy bass, especially for the price point. Ambient aware is incredibly useful with the "noise sensing" mics, but can be annoying when anything brushes against them like a hoodie. The ear pads seem smaller than some of their other headphones, sitting on my ears more than other ones that I wear. This may be a good thing for people with smaller ears and may just be my opinion. I love the headphones, they just aren't my favorite.

Best Headphones I’ve Had
on January 20, 2024
Posted by: Robinso 88
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very comfortable. Noise canceling is decent. It probably starts kicking in at 3/4’s volume, then outside noise starts being difficult to hear. In this setting, at max volume, it is impossible to hear outside noise. I had my television at a seven volume. The toggle buttons take awhile to get used to. These are probably the best headphones I’ve had from any company. It did take a reset and a 10-30 seconds to find my iPad and connect. It is faster to find and connect on an iPhone. No irritation with ears and hair when headset is on. Very soft and secure. Bass is pretty good on Drake songs from Honestly Nevermind and Justin Bieber’s Right Here.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] JBL 770nc Headphones
This review may get to be on the longer than the average so please bear with my to many words.
JBL is all about sound, so when these arrived at my door step, open the package, check the contents and direct to the music. First test was with semi-lossless music files using the included audio cable.. Bounced around various recordings from different eras, different genres. Then onto specific recording I am quite familiar and know well. Non-electrified instruments sounded natural and correct. Then onto electric guitars and some with crazy amounts of distortion. To my biased ears, the sounds were ever so slightly mellowed.
OK, now onto streaming music with cable attached, and a long way from lossless. Yeah I could tell a difference in the music but still more than acceptable. Switch to Bluetooth and maybe a little reduction in quality in some recordings and like no change in other recordings. Go figure! Did well on podcasts. Easy to tell who had the better recording system to make podcasts.
As a side note the box says “PURE BASS”. This references a higher quality of bass not a louder bass. Reasonably well accomplished on these headphones.
The Noise Canceling does work. And work well. I can be with my wife while she watches her TV show I don’t care for and I can listen to mu music that she does not care for. Should be interesting how well the noise cancel system works on airplane flights.
Charge the phone. Battery life unknown. Hey it is type C charging but got to wonder about that very short charging cord. Hmmmmm. But I like the orange color. And speaking of cords, included is a flat 48” audio cable. 3.5mm X 2.5mm. Some of us do prefer a hard wire connection over blue tooth. In the hands the headphones had a nice feel of quality and reasonably light weight. Gently surprised!
Now we get to my primary issue: Everything is BLACK ON BLACK. A different color for the various buttons would be nice. A subdued gray would be just fine. Just hinting. The JBL headphone app does alleviate a few of my gripes. And maybe increase the tactile feel so to find the correct button?
Onto the secondary issues: The ear-cups do not breathe well. Sweaty ears and sweaty stripe across my bald head from the band. Ear-cups reasonably comfortable and headband cushioned nice. Part of me wishes the headphones were a true over the ear and not on-the-ear. And I thought the cup size a little off. Those with smaller ears a tight fitting over-the-ear unit and those with mid to larger ears an on-the-ear unit.
I did not try to do any phone calls although the headphones are capable, simply not my style. And a button is involved. Back to one of my gripes.
When taken as a complete package the quality of sound is the winner. No, the headphones are not of audiophile level. Maybe view them as an upper end listening device for private listening.
I did give these a 5-star review. In reality it is more like a 4.63 star review. So I rounded up.
Will I continue to listen with them? Yes. Will I use the headphones frequently? Yes. Will I recommend them to friends and relatives? Yes. Will I tolerate the shortcomings? Yes. Obviously the final verdict is “YES”.

Over ear NC headphones w/ full sound & portability
on February 5, 2024
Posted by: Achambers1978
from Chicago, IL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love the Tune 770NC over ear headphones. On paper, they checked all of my needs. I have a pair of favorite earbuds, and a pair of incredible wired headphones (gaming headset). I was looking for some portable, noise cancelling, over the ear headphones. If my head was (much) smaller, these might have worked.. but the comfort just wasn't there. I'll go through each attribute that stood out and describe who I think these would work well for and who may want to pass. (Spoiler: I'd give 4.5 stars for these as children's headphones)
Sound: 4/5. The 770NCs sound great, but not amazing. Compared to my aforementioned buds (JBL Reflect Aero), and my headset (JBL Quantum One), these just can't quite match the range or clarity.
Noise Cancellation: 4/5. Similar answer as above for noise cancelling. Great but not superb. My Quantums make you feel like you are in a sound-proofed recording studio. These are on-par with my NC buds.
Portability: 4/5. These headphones are nice and lightweight, and fold up decently. A point off for not folding across the middle into a tidy little bundle. (Especially given that they aren't designed for lux comfort).
Comfort: 2/5. Here's the main issue. They are just uncomfortable after more than an hour or two. I have a fairly big head, but still. The cups are pretty small, the padding on the headband is thin, and worst of all, they clamp your ears pretty tightly. For a very small person, like a child, maybe this rating would jump to a 4 or 5.
Battery: 5/5. Simply incredible. I charged them before first use, and used them very very often over ten days... I was hoping to see how long I could go before needing to charge, but they are only at 70%!!!
App / Connecting: 5/5. Just good. Beyond easy and intuitive to setup, connect and use. The app is nice, buttons and features rock. Seamless connection between multiple devices and no bluetooth dropouts. JBL just keeps getting better here.
So all in all, I cannot recommend these for a full sized human. But for a very small adult or a child, these could be a great sounding, solid, portable set of headphones.

Excellent Noise Canceling
on January 22, 2024
Posted by: 68eight
from Los Angeles
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] High end noise canceling without the price tag.If looking for great cans without breaking the budget you found em.I used these at gym and totally drowned out everything and everyone.They felt snug and secure while hitting the heavy bag.The ear cushion is on the thick side and comfortable.The sound is clear especially vocals.Bass was a little too much for me. Using the Jbl app i tweaked it and put the EQ on Studio mode and made the sound perfect for my taste.Btw the app is super simple to use no issues there.Battery quick charges and i haven't got close to them dying and I'm using them alot.The matte black with shiny JBL emblem looks nice and elegant.The manual buttons are easy to use,no complicated finger swiping which i hate.Save your money and buy these if looking for great ANC and sound.
