I bought this a month ago and I think there are major improvements to the old JBL Tune Flex design. The charging issue seems to be solved, and the audio is playing at the same level in both buds. The other day, the action buttons on the headphones were registering a tap, but I was not tapping them. Interestingly enough, whenever I was in the sun, the headphones were registering a tap (thereby pausing and unpausing the content I was listening to). Same issue on both buds, not just 1.
My wife bought me these for Christmas, I can't use them yet. However, JBL's brand is fantastic with the quality of their speakers and earbuds! So I already know these will be amazing and can't wait to start using them!
Just bought these so totally clean and settings are all proper and still the max volume is so low!

Thank you for your feedback. For your JBL Tune Flex 2 give you the best audio response, you must create a tight seal within your ear canal. To do this, angle the eartip slightly downward to make it easier to insert into your ear canal. Gently twist the earbud to fit it securely into the shape of your ear. Then, continue twisting the earbud into your ear canal to achieve the best seal and secure fit. We also recommend trying other provided eartip sizes. If the volume still seems to be low, we recommend checking the balance control on your source device in the Accessibility settings. And on the music app that you use, commonly found in the playback or EQ settings. Also, please check the balance control on the JBL Headphones App. If you need more help, please contact us.
These headphones CONSTANTLY fall out of your ears and always at the worst time. When you touch the headphone to push it back in your ears, the touch capabilities are triggered. You can turn these settings off, but every single time your headphones die or randomly disconnect, you have to re download the app, go through the pairing process, and then turn those settings off again. I do not leave reviews often. This is how you know I genuinely hate these headphones.
