Awesome sound, portability, and function-a bit lac
on April 11, 2026
Posted by: KaseyW
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Music sounds incredible in these headphones—crystal clear melodies; deep, resounding bases; and sharp vocals. Sounds shine in a variety of genres: electronica, pop, hip-hop, jazz, and more. The charge lasts a long time and they fold up easily for adventures on-the-go. It connects easily on Bluetooth and the traveling case keeps them clean and contained. The only drawback for me was comfort: my ears get a bit sore from the size of the cups and I find I can only wear them comfortably for about an hour. Still perfect for a workout: get music to pump you up, wipe them off, and store easily for the next time!

Great Sound Quality and Noise Cancellation
on April 10, 2026
Posted by: DenaM
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new JBL Live 680 noise canceling headphones are excellent in three areas important to my needs. Sitting in living room with a floor fan running and tv on the headphones shut out almost all sound with nothing playing. Once I turned on music, it was all I could hear. The unit powers up and connects with no fuss to Bluetooth and I tested Auracast from my receiver and it connected with one press of a switch.
The APP is also easy to use and gives you full control of equalization and Spatial Audio. Tried custom setup that was your own hearing to adjust by a hearing test for frequency settings. It was great for adjusting your own preference for loudness at different tones..
Second was battery power and charge time. Spec was a 5 minute charge for 4 hours play time and full charge is 50 hours. The headphones easily met that spec and held on to volume power, no fade out of the sound power.
Third, I only like high fidelity sound and expected the usual weak volume and limited bass that makes me want to just use my home stereo speakers. These headphones created a great Spatial Audio experience and the range was incredible. Using them on a dog walk with my phone, I felt like I was in a private listening theater. Phone calls were immediately switched and notifications worked. The voice assistance tells you what is activated.
Overall these are the only rechargeable headphones I’ve tried that give loud clear sound plus noise canceling that have been able to do all of this. I really enjoy listening to music on these headphones and they are very travel handy.

Great quality for studio or work use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Live 680NC is a wonderful addition to your collection. It has the capability to connect to your computer to use for any video call. You can hear clearly without background noise. The actual headphones are comfy with a cushioned band for the top of your head as well as cushioned ear pads. This keeps you comfy. The are super light weight and fold up into a slim design with a handy bag to tote them around. They fee durable and well made. The sound quality is amazing! Bass when you need it, quiet when you don’t. They connect to the JBL app to help adjust anything you’d like. You are able to adjust sound skip songs pause and start from the actual headphones themselves. They are quality headphones, especially for work or in studio use! Not great for the gym. They get sweaty and gross. Keep em in the house!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are amazing. I’ve been trying them for weeks and have found nothing I didn’t like! The sound from JBL is like no other. Amazing crisp clear sound. These are super comfy! Very light weight and padded ear pads. Did many chores inside and out with comfort. Easy to navigate. Battery use is very long. The sound quality of JBL is amazing. Will own no other!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These noise-canceling headphones are fantastic! Love the memory foam which makes long listening sessions quite comfortable! Plus they have the reliable JBL sound/bass we all know and love, plus the ANC is very effective in blocking outside noise.

The sound quality is amazing!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These headphones truly outdid themselves! I own various other noise canceling headphones but these JBL headphones deliver superior sound and heavy bass in this quality built product. The set up was easy and came with a nice pouch to travel with so I don’t scratch them. Overall I have replaced my other headphones with these

Excellent all around performance
on April 6, 2026
Posted by: MatthewK
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been able to use the JBL Live 680NC for the past few weeks. I recently took the headset on vacation with me and I absolutely love them. The battery life was very impressive. I also never had a headset that paused my music for me when I took it off my ears and resumed play once I put them back on. Such a COOL feature! They're very comfortable and very easy to use. The noise cancellation is easy to find while wearing and the sound quality is excellent.
