I bought these to replace my black Tune Flex original ear buds I lost. I bought the Tune Flex 2 because of the additional color options and they were on sale. So far, I am unimpressed by the sound quality. The "noise canceling" and "ambient aware" features are not as good as the Tune Flex 1.
Very impressed with these ear buds. I don't like the standard round seal bud style.
1. I want to hear things around me, and often wear them at work where I regularly need to have conversations with people, so I don't want a total seal to block everything out around me 2. They ALWAYS fall out of my ears. No matter what size I use its a constant issue for me, I just have oddly shaped/sized ear holes or something.
Before this I was using Air Pods, which have a similar style, and these buds were basically the only ones I could find with this style. They're cheaper, even at full price, provide much stronger base, and last much longer without needing to be charged in the case. Also I'm just sick of Apple and would rather not be handing them more money right now.
Overall, these are fantastic. JBL seriously knows what they're doing.
I got these as a gift a month ago and not even 2 days into having them, the left one doesn’t even turn on half the time. The battery life on them is pitiful and the contact points are very picky. The noise canceling is almost louder than the base ambient aware mode. I had the tune flex 1’s and they served me for a year and a half. I don’t think I will ever get anything JBL ever again!

Thanks for your feedback. We would like to work with you directly to address the issue with your JBL Tune Flex 2. Please contact us.
I've been a big fan of JBL earbuds for a long time. The bass is pretty good but NOTHING can fix the weird and painful shape of these buds. With all tips, I find the inside of my ear getting cut or bruised from the shape and width. People with small ear canals, please beware! I recommend the old earbud style.

Your feedback is important and will be relayed directly to our product development team as part of our ongoing efforts to enhance our offerings.
These do not fit my ears properly and fall out all the time. They sound alright when they actually decide to charge, but one often doesn't charge fully. When you do try to charge them they often stay connected even though they are enclosed in the case
Only choosing 1 star because anything between 1 and 5 doesn’t really get noticed. I’ve had 3 different jbl earbuds so don’t paint me as a hater, but these particular ones fell short.
The noise cancellation does not work nearly as well on other earbuds. I work around equipment that can be loud and with previous buds I could noise cancel and still listen to my music. These get completely drowned out by any outside noise.
They don’t stay in my ear at all. If I tilt my head in the slightest I’ll feel them start to fall out. And I already know jbl will respond with “we have 3 different size…” Yes I know. They’re too flimsy. There’s not enough traction to hold them in place. And because of the unique design I can’t do my usual trick of switching to a foam tip which tends to hold the buds better.
Sound quality is fine BUT occasionally they will “glitch out” and there will be an added static noise that comes and goes. The volume doesn’t get loud enough in my opinion.
Battery life is pretty short compared to competitors at this price or even other jbl at nearly the same price.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate all the information you provided. If the issue persists after changing the ear tips, we recommend trying our new JBL Fit Checker tools available on our website to see if they help. For the sound issue, try connecting the unit to a different phone or reset the earbuds by tapping either side three times, with the third tap held for 5 seconds. Then place them back in the case and close the lid. If you need further assistance, please contact our Customer Support Team here: https://support.jbl.com/us/en/#contact
Bought it as a gift for a “technologically handicapped” person. I was needlessly concerned that it would be aggravating to setup and operate. She loves them. Plenty of great features. Overall… excellent.
So recently I’ve been in a search for some EarPods to use everyday that wasn’t AirPods. I’ve had the AirPods Pro’s since they were made. They were good but i knew sound wise i could find better.
These? For the price point? ARE AMAZING! I’m also a musician/ producer for 10+ years… i have no issues listening to music on these!
I’ve being using the sealed eartips and MAN the bass is THERE!
