JBL Tune 230NC TWS - True Wireless In-Ear Headphones, Active Noise Cancelling with Smart Ambient, JBL Pure Bass Sound, 4 mics for perfect voice calls, IPX4, 40Hrs of battery life (Blue)

These are my favorite earbuds to date. I've been wearing them daily for two years; usually all day at work and then some more at home. Using them on a Google Pixel Pro and Windows PC.Pros:1. The touch to answer feature is the stand out. If you are busy and your hands are messy you can answer a call or pause media with a tap to the ear. It actually doesn't even have to fully touch, just almost, and importantly you can do it with the back of your hand or forearm. This feature alone make this product indispensable for me. The Airpods have that squeeze to answer/ pause, which is just not practical when you have your hands full. Another brand I have has a double tap, but it's spotty and you can't do it with anything but your bare index finger.2. Audio quality is as good if not better, comparing to Apple Airpods Pro II and others I've had over the years.3. You can re-program via the app to have the touch to answer feature on the left bud too.4. Find my buds feature on the app is great. Also displays battery life of charger and buds.5. Time out and reconnection. The timeout is really long 20-30 minute, maybe more? If I do "loose connection" usually a tap will boot it up. The Airpods on the other hand timeout way too quick and then I have to put them back in the case to re-set or go to Bluetooth settings. Maybe the Airpods have better connectivity with Apple products? If so disregard, this is an android/ PC users review.Cons:1. Wind noise. You cannot have a call in the wind, the static sound is higher than normal/ other brands.2. Connection of charging terminals. I've had instances where the charge would not go through, for me this happened to the right bud. Solution, clean the terminals with cotton swab 70% acl. Then, purposefully place the bud back in the slot upright, if need be lift and re-set once or twice. Placing the charger upright makes the connection better. For some reason I've had to do this about 5 times in two years. Other times, for months on end no issues, no fuss? I don't know why. Right now I'm on the "no issues" steak of about 2-3 months. Clocking in at around 5,000-6,000 hours of play time to date, I'm not complaining.Neutral:1. Battery life? I wear them all day every day, one ear at a time. So I've actually never been "without juice". The case is usually good for about 3-5 days. The buds themselves around 6-8 hours each. The battery warning gives a good sense of time left, maybe 15-20 minutes. I wouldn't complain if the buds had a full day's charge, like 12 hours, but this works for me because I need one ear open to talk to people. I also have my set of Airpods just in case.2. Fit, even though I'm 6-4 I use the smallest ear fitting. If they are uncomfortable at first give it a few days. Now it fits so well I forget they are there. They've never fallen out of my ear, unlike the Airpods which always do. I usually have one bud in one ear all day. I understand this is very specific to the person so not sure you can list this as a pro or con. It's a pro for me.For the Developers:I have a cheap over the ear set I use for yardwork. It was a fly by night operation no longer in business like you often see on Amazon. The connectivity is outstanding. The range is excellent, and when I get out of range it says "lost connection", if I return to range within 3-5 minutes it automatically reconnect to my device, then immediately turns back on my media with no added command. I really like this feature. I don't want my phone on my person when operating lawnmowers and weed whackers so I keep it in the garage. I know it's a rare use case to be "out of range" of your device, but I really appreciate the "play on connect" feature.

i used my last pair for five years, i think it was. the first thing that went was the charging - they didn't charge in the case. so i had to charge the earbuds by charging the case. then the case didn't charge as well anymore. then the battery of the earbuds declined so i only had maybe an hour of noise cancellation, which is my primary reason for using these. then they stopped pairing so well, and then ultimately one earbud stopped working altogether. so i bought another pair! these are worth buying when they're on sale the two times a year they go on sale. camelcamelcamel.com can tell you exactly by copying and pasting their URL.these have the best sound quality ever. the bass is AMAZING and makes all the difference for me. the other aspects of the quality are also incredible and the noise cancellation is the best i've tried so far. would definitely recommend - and have! my dad bought them as well, and he's very very picky about comfort. he always complains about how they fit in his ears. but he likes these and he is willing to work out with them as well.

It’s 2AM and something just struck a nerve with me with these headphones. I bought these in 2023 and they are holding up fantastic that being said I don’t wear them other than to lay in bed and watch TikTok’s or make calls I think they’ve been out of my house twice so they’re basically still new. They sound great, noise canceling is decent, app is easy to use and they fit pretty good canning lay your head on them because they are a little big outside of the ear. BUT something I’ve never encountered with any other headphone in my life these buds have the be made of the slipperiest plastic I’ve ever touched. 85% of all my attempts to pull them out of the case results in me dropping them on the floor and it drives me nuts. Anyways decent product worth the money just wish they were made of a different material.

I have owned mine for a year now, and like others on here I have had occasional issues with one of the buds not charging properly, resulting in a dead earbud. While the sound quality is on par or better than the skull candys I've had- The noise canceling is really awesome. But the coolest feature I find myself using more than the noise canceling is the "ambient aware" function. I can listen to music and still hear what is going on around me. Like having your own background music while out running errands, or anywhere you need to maintain situational awareness. IMO this is the most underrated feature of these buds, and I will stay a JBL loyalist for this reason.
