Crystal Clear Sound

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Out of the box, the JBL Tune 680NC look very clean, professional, and comfortable! The padding on the ear pieces is very comfortable, and the fit of the headband is perfect (even for a guy with a bigger head). They instantly connected to my phone, and then the JBL app with no issues. The app itself allows me to change the sound settings in the headphones which made my music choices sound exceptionally good! No messing with equalizer (unless you are skilled doing that) and trying to get the right volume. Making a call was super easy with crystal clear audio, and no lag in talking with the built in microphone. Even with the background noise, the call sounded super clear on the other end with no interference. The JBL Tune 680NC is an exceptional product, crystal clear sound, easy controls in the app, and the noise cancelling worked wonders going through a construction area!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Jbl Tune 680NC are some awesome headphones. I used them at the gym and they really helped me with great sound canceling. During my studying, they helped me stay focused and not get distracted. And during my runs, they stayed put. They're really easy to use, they connect super easily. And with a simple touch, you can switch from noise canceling to being aware of your surroundings.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first impression seeing these headphones was: “These things are so small, no way it’s competing with some of their larger headphones” - and boy, was I wrong!
The sound was much better than you’d think just by looking at them. There’s great presence, nice bass and lows, clear highs, warm mids, and a surprisingly nice stereo width. I even think with this paid that JBL may have increased the loudness level which I personally appreciate being a music creator.
They’re small enough to carry without it feeling like it’s taking much space in your bag. I mainly only use headphones like these for recreational listening, but you could use these in the gym as they’re lightweight so it won’t interfere with any part of your workout.
They have an Ambient-Aware setting, as well as a Talk-Thru setting which are good if you’re outside or may need to speak to someone occasionally while wearing them, but when those features are off - whatever you’re listening to will pretty much drown out outside sounds and noise.
It does have soft ear cushions, but - I did find them to be a bit uncomfortable for me after wearing them for over an hour which could likely be because my ears are a little bigger than the ear cushions.
They were easy to pair to my phone, and the battery power seems to be really good as I’ve used them multiple times without having to recharge them much. They also seem to charge pretty fast, too.
Overall, if I were rating them - I’d give them a 9/10.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Tune 680NC are amazing! I love the long battery life. I use the app to set the EQ to the perfect sound for my music. They are very well-made, but still lightweight. I use them while I work and with the adaptive noise canceling I don’t have to worry about the office interrupting me while I’m getting my projects done. 
it is an excellent choice for those who are looking for an affordable headphone that can be used for work, to watch a movie, or to listen to music,

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Communication. The active noise cancellation does a very good job of keeping away the background noises from my ears, and in case you need to communicate with someone nearby, there is a button for "TalkThrough" that allows you to hear and communicate with a person near you while still lightly hearing the voices and sounds coming from the headset. The audio during phone calls is clear and crisp.
Sound. It really sounds good; this is what JBL does better than other brands. The bass sounds magical. Listening to music is great; it feels like you are in the recording studio. The bass is pretty powerful, and the sounds are very crispy and clear.
Battery life. It is incredible that I spent days without charging it and it was still rocking for hours; the battery life is more than great. The headset also has fast charging; you can get it almost fully charged in less than 10 minutes.
Summary. The new JBL Tune 680NC offers an excellent build for the price you pay, the sounds are great, and the headset is very lightweight; it is an excellent choice for those who are looking for an affordable headphone that can be used for work, to watch a movie, or to listen to music, but there are a few caveats, such as the quality of the used material; it doesn't feel premium, and there is a lack of LED lights to tell you when the headset is on or off or when the ANC is on or off. The headband is a little bit tight for you, but you can readjust it until you feel more comfortable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lightweight and comfortable headphones with the capability to connect to two devices at the same time. Clear and crisp sound. Able to take phone calls or be on mobile meetings with built in 2-microphone system. Noise cancelling and smart ambient technocratic to block outside noise when needed. Easy to use controls on right earphone. Foldable design with soft and comfortable top of headband. Ideal headphones for office and on the go needs. I’ll be using these for online work meetings and also in my everyday, personal life. I look forward to using these on airline flights. I’m pleased with the capability to be Bluetooth or wired connection with included USB-C to 3.5 mm aux jack. This product does not come with a charging cable. Requires a USB-C charging cable. Easy plug in to charge when needed.
Comfortable, long lasting, great sounding with noise canceling

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Tune 680NC headphones are very comfortable. I wish the part that goes over the ear were just a little bigger because I have big ears but they still cancel out sound well. I use these headphones when I am on a riding mower and I can hear my music clearly . The battery lasts a really long time and these headphones have been very reliable. These connected right away with with my phone and haven’t had any issues. These would be a good investment for someone who pays attention to sound quality and does not like having to charge after every use.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Decent headset. Syncing is easy and sound quality is good. I wish the earpieces were larger for 2 reasons. One, the noise canceling effect is kind negated by the earpieces being too small and not able to form a seal onto your head - resting on the shells of your ears instead. Two, they are uncomfortable to wear for extended periods of time if you have cartilage piercings as the earpieces rest on top of them. These headsets are probably better suited for preteens or kids due to the small size. Battery lasts reasonable amount of time. Charges quickly. Low weight. Decent value.
