Update 17/10 in the previous review 21/9:
1. Battery and duration:
It is better than the BEATS, my JBL lasts at least 2 hours longer! As for their charging and the case, I would say they last the same as the BEATS. Both cases lasted for 4-5 charges, with the same charging duration.

2. Speech: The ANC on the JBL is 10 times better, I just noticed that some "strange" noises pass through the microphones and bother the person I'm talking to. For example, when I'm outside on the street or somewhere windy, the noise DOES NOT pass through (which is good), but if I have a nylon bag in my hands and I do something, it sounds very loud... What can I say.

3. Music and bass: There is no comparison with the beats.... The JBL is amazing, incredible sound and bass!!!

4. Application: The beats were better in that aspect, but the JBL is more comfortable. Since I wear them everywhere, at the gym, on the street, maybe I need to "adjust" them better to my ears at some point, but they don't hurt like the beats' application used to!

The winner (for me): JBL by 1000, a huge difference in everything!!!

Review 21/9:
This is the first review I'm writing, I come from BEATS FIT PRO (purchased for 210€ on Black Friday in Amsterdam, they were originally 260€). My BEATS got stolen (without the case) and that's how I ended up with JBL. The comparison below will be based on my experience with the BEATS.

1. Battery and duration: I can't give an opinion on the JBL yet as I just received and connected them. With the BEATS, my case lasted for 3-4 charges (very quickly, from 10% the headphones went to 60%+ in 10 minutes, but they also drained quickly, with 4-5 hours of use and music, they needed charging again). I will need to come back with more information about the JBL.

2. Speech: The ANC on the JBL is 10 times better, I'm blown away!!! I also made calls on a very noisy street, and the person I was talking to could hear me as if I was right next to them, without the external noise!
With the BEATS, the speech quality was not as good, and the person I was talking to could hear the external noise normally (not too much, but the noise passed through the microphones). I repeat, for the skeptics, the ANC on the JBL is simply IMPRESSIVE! Way better than the Beats!!!

Music: I want music while walking, exercising (everywhere). The bass quality and intensity are much better than the BEATS! In order for the BEATS to reach the same bass performance, I would have to use an additional equalizer application, while with the JBL, the bass and intensity are superior directly and without the need for any application. The bass is amazing!!!

Fit in the ears: I got the BEATS because they fit in the ear with that additional silicone piece they had. The JBL didn't impress me much in this aspect, but they fit perfectly and I didn't expect that! They are also much more comfortable, because after using the BEATS for an hour, my ears would hurt, but with the JBL, there is no pain at all!

Considering that the JBL is exactly half the price (135€) of the BEATS (250-270€) right now, I can say one thing:
Well done JBL!!!

Excellent sound and easy mutipoint, good noise cancelling. Previously I had the JBL Live Pro+ which had exactly the same problems but at a much lower frequency such as:

(upgraded to version 3.7.0)
1. Disconnections of both earbuds for 1 second.
2. Disconnection of one earbud for 1-2 seconds.
3. While playing music, suddenly the music starts playing at 2x speed for 1-2 seconds, they lose connection and then come back after a while.
4. Suddenly the bass completely disappears and only the mids/treble can be heard, I have to take them out of my ears and put them back in to fix it.
5. Very poor range, they lose connection in the next room with open doors (with the Mac), the JBL Live Pro+ had no issues.
6. When connected to a TV, they have a serious lip sync problem (the lip movement doesn't match the sound), it's always delayed even though it's adjusted from their mobile app in video mode. The same happens when watching videos on a PC/Mac.
7. Sometimes in sudden head movements, #1 from above happens (I haven't tested them while running).

These are not issues with my headphones, check the r/jbl subreddit and you will see that many others have exactly the same problems. It does the exact same on: iPhone 13, Samsung S22, MacBook Pro 2019, LG CX65 OLED TV, iPad.

UPDATE (06/04/2023): In the end, I returned them to the store and they gave me a refund. The response from the dealership was immediate, well done.

    after 2.5 years the left earbud (which always had some issues) has finally given up and its quality now reminds me of the cheap earphones you buy at kiosks. they always had small sound interruptions, balance issues, etc. they are definitely not worth their money.

    This review is about the colour: Pink

    I see some comments and I think they are quite exaggerated. I have had the headphones for 3 years and I am absolutely satisfied. The noise cancellation is top-notch. Their durability as a build is very good since they have fallen quite a few times and as for connectivity, once you connect them the first time, every time you open the case they connect immediately.

    The only glitch they have is that sometimes they will pause, starting from one earbud and ending at the other. This whole thing lasts for a second.

    This is by no means enough to diminish their value. I recommend them unreservedly to everyone.

    Apart from the music, which is why I bought it, I also wanted to sound better during my calls. However, there are external noises that reach my conversation partner and I have to raise my voice a bit. For its price, I would have liked better noise isolation. The battery life is quite good considering I use them for running, which lasts several hours.

    This review is about the colour: Blue

    After 2 and a half years of use, the headphones have not stopped playing music with interruptions (disconnecting and reconnecting). Although the problem is known to JBL, they never bothered to release a damn firmware update!
    Also, while the sound is good, the noise cancellation is quite bad.
    On the positive side, call quality is good.
    Update: The disconnection problem has not only not been fixed, but now the disconnections can be multiple and consecutive (I just counted 5). Minus one star and we continue.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    The first ones' performance dropped dramatically and they were replaced.

    They have about two disconnections per day. The battery is satisfactory, you can use them for a whole day even after a while.
    The case gives you 2-2.5 charges (Line and charging). On the last line they do not charge.

    Charging time is quite good and good Noise Cancelling and Ambient aware.
    It also has a Talk through function for when someone is talking to you.

    I wouldn't pay 100 euros. They were bought only because there was a refund from other headphones, since the store had closed

    This review is about the colour: Black

    Purchased in May 2024, in 1 year and 4 months (2 years warranty) the battery of the case broke down, it charges and basically gives only one use in total. In my search I saw that it is a common phenomenon and unfortunately it cannot be repaired by an official representative. For its price, it is unacceptable that the battery lasts only this long. Related link on Reddit. If you have noticed this and are within warranty, it is good to make a claim https://www.reddit.com/r/JBL/comments/1kn9bbp/live_pro_2_tws_case_malfunction/

    I've had them for several months now. On the positive side, there is good connectivity with iPhone and Android, as well as sound quality. On the negative side, the fit is not perfect, which varies from person to person, and while running you can hear the inside hitting the casing, which is a bit annoying.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    It really isolates ambient sounds effectively — compared to the AirPods, it is clearly better in this area. However, when you talk on the phone, your conversation partner can also hear external sounds like wind or noise.

    The battery lasts for many days without charging, even with full use.

    Additionally, it has very good compatibility with both the iPhone and the computer (laptop).

    Overall, I am very satisfied — compared to the AirPods I had, these are also much more affordable.

    Truly perfect sound with treble, bass as if you are in the space where the music piece you are listening to is being played. Also, the isolation from environmental noise is perfect. Very ergonomic, by choosing the right size ear tip they fit perfectly in the ear without causing discomfort.

    The worst headphones I have ever bought
    They do not connect when I put them in my ear and every time I have to turn on the Bluetooth from my phone and press connect, and even then, if they connect
    I sent them for service and they returned them to me after 25 days saying they are fine
    Nevertheless, they do not work
    99 euros wasted
    I think it's better for someone to buy from a physical store even if it's more expensive
    the hassle is priceless

    Very reliable and VFM. They were purchased as a second pair to the Earpods and I would say they compete despite the price gap.

    Resistance to sweat and weather conditions, you hear well and have no complaints about the microphone. A good choice and a reliable brand.

    I got them and expected it to be a smooth connection experience since they say they are dual point, but they can't be connected to both mobile and laptop at the same time. When they are only connected to the mobile, they play music, but they don't switch to the call when I stop the music to take a call. Okay, the noise cancelling is very strong, the sound quality is good, but the connectivity issue is very frustrating. It's a shame for their price.

    Super satisfied with the product.
    The sound is classic JBL for those who know, colorless with punchy bass just right.
    I got them for music and they have left me satisfied.
    In speech, everything is crystal clear and the interlocutor hears you and you hear them crystal clear.
    The noise cancelling is good, there is definitely better but it has fully covered me.
    Attention for those who choose the silver color, because it doesn't look good in photos, the outer casing is shiny and you will look like you are wearing earrings.
    Also, the JBL app is complete, but it freezes on Xiaomi phones and urgently needs an upgrade.

    The only good thing about these headphones is the battery. Sound is terrible, especially for music. The app is difficult for me to use, and I know a few things about sound due to my profession. The app is not good; they keep falling out. When you run, you hear something inside the headphone that sounds like it has come loose. Don't buy it.

    The first pair worked normally for one day. Then they lost connection with the phone; we tried them on five phones, and none could find them. They refunded my money because they didn't have any others. I went and got the same ones from another store, and today, after two months, they completely lost communication for a while. Then one was working, and then both were dead.

Also, mediocre sound for the money even before it presented issues. In general, I would not recommend them at all; there are much better options for this money

    Good sound and noise cancellation. Build quality is good but doesn't justify the 120€. Three stars because it doesn't block out the surrounding sounds for the person on the other end. On the contrary, it annoyingly amplifies them, as I've been told. Therefore, get JBL but the cheaper series. It offers the same.

Update 17/10 in the previous review 21/9:
1. Battery and duration:
It is better than the BEATS, my JBL lasts at least 2 hours longer! As for their charging and the case, I would say they last the same as the BEATS. Both cases lasted for 4-5 charges, with the same charging duration.

2. Speech: The ANC on the JBL is 10 times better, I just noticed that some "strange" noises pass through the microphones and bother the person I'm talking to. For example, when I'm outside on the street or somewhere windy, the noise DOES NOT pass through (which is good), but if I have a nylon bag in my hands and I do something, it sounds very loud... What can I say.

3. Music and bass: There is no comparison with the beats.... The JBL is amazing, incredible sound and bass!!!

4. Application: The beats were better in that aspect, but the JBL is more comfortable. Since I wear them everywhere, at the gym, on the street, maybe I need to "adjust" them better to my ears at some point, but they don't hurt like the beats' application used to!

The winner (for me): JBL by 1000, a huge difference in everything!!!

Review 21/9:
This is the first review I'm writing, I come from BEATS FIT PRO (purchased for 210€ on Black Friday in Amsterdam, they were originally 260€). My BEATS got stolen (without the case) and that's how I ended up with JBL. The comparison below will be based on my experience with the BEATS.

1. Battery and duration: I can't give an opinion on the JBL yet as I just received and connected them. With the BEATS, my case lasted for 3-4 charges (very quickly, from 10% the headphones went to 60%+ in 10 minutes, but they also drained quickly, with 4-5 hours of use and music, they needed charging again). I will need to come back with more information about the JBL.

2. Speech: The ANC on the JBL is 10 times better, I'm blown away!!! I also made calls on a very noisy street, and the person I was talking to could hear me as if I was right next to them, without the external noise!
With the BEATS, the speech quality was not as good, and the person I was talking to could hear the external noise normally (not too much, but the noise passed through the microphones). I repeat, for the skeptics, the ANC on the JBL is simply IMPRESSIVE! Way better than the Beats!!!

Music: I want music while walking, exercising (everywhere). The bass quality and intensity are much better than the BEATS! In order for the BEATS to reach the same bass performance, I would have to use an additional equalizer application, while with the JBL, the bass and intensity are superior directly and without the need for any application. The bass is amazing!!!

Fit in the ears: I got the BEATS because they fit in the ear with that additional silicone piece they had. The JBL didn't impress me much in this aspect, but they fit perfectly and I didn't expect that! They are also much more comfortable, because after using the BEATS for an hour, my ears would hurt, but with the JBL, there is no pain at all!

Considering that the JBL is exactly half the price (135€) of the BEATS (250-270€) right now, I can say one thing:
Well done JBL!!!

Excellent sound and easy mutipoint, good noise cancelling. Previously I had the JBL Live Pro+ which had exactly the same problems but at a much lower frequency such as:

(upgraded to version 3.7.0)
1. Disconnections of both earbuds for 1 second.
2. Disconnection of one earbud for 1-2 seconds.
3. While playing music, suddenly the music starts playing at 2x speed for 1-2 seconds, they lose connection and then come back after a while.
4. Suddenly the bass completely disappears and only the mids/treble can be heard, I have to take them out of my ears and put them back in to fix it.
5. Very poor range, they lose connection in the next room with open doors (with the Mac), the JBL Live Pro+ had no issues.
6. When connected to a TV, they have a serious lip sync problem (the lip movement doesn't match the sound), it's always delayed even though it's adjusted from their mobile app in video mode. The same happens when watching videos on a PC/Mac.
7. Sometimes in sudden head movements, #1 from above happens (I haven't tested them while running).

These are not issues with my headphones, check the r/jbl subreddit and you will see that many others have exactly the same problems. It does the exact same on: iPhone 13, Samsung S22, MacBook Pro 2019, LG CX65 OLED TV, iPad.

UPDATE (06/04/2023): In the end, I returned them to the store and they gave me a refund. The response from the dealership was immediate, well done.

    after 2.5 years the left earbud (which always had some issues) has finally given up and its quality now reminds me of the cheap earphones you buy at kiosks. they always had small sound interruptions, balance issues, etc. they are definitely not worth their money.

    Very good, they have nice sound, the only problem is when you talk on the phone the other person can hear if you are doing something, any work. The sound is not isolated.

    In "Noise Cancelling" mode, the right earbud loses sound volume. This is the first time I have been so disappointed with JBL

    This review is about the colour: Pink

    I see some comments and I think they are quite exaggerated. I have had the headphones for 3 years and I am absolutely satisfied. The noise cancellation is top-notch. Their durability as a build is very good since they have fallen quite a few times and as for connectivity, once you connect them the first time, every time you open the case they connect immediately.

    The only glitch they have is that sometimes they will pause, starting from one earbud and ending at the other. This whole thing lasts for a second.

    This is by no means enough to diminish their value. I recommend them unreservedly to everyone.

    Apart from the music, which is why I bought it, I also wanted to sound better during my calls. However, there are external noises that reach my conversation partner and I have to raise my voice a bit. For its price, I would have liked better noise isolation. The battery life is quite good considering I use them for running, which lasts several hours.

    This review is about the colour: Blue

    After 2 and a half years of use, the headphones have not stopped playing music with interruptions (disconnecting and reconnecting). Although the problem is known to JBL, they never bothered to release a damn firmware update!
    Also, while the sound is good, the noise cancellation is quite bad.
    On the positive side, call quality is good.
    Update: The disconnection problem has not only not been fixed, but now the disconnections can be multiple and consecutive (I just counted 5). Minus one star and we continue.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    The first ones' performance dropped dramatically and they were replaced.

    They have about two disconnections per day. The battery is satisfactory, you can use them for a whole day even after a while.
    The case gives you 2-2.5 charges (Line and charging). On the last line they do not charge.

    Charging time is quite good and good Noise Cancelling and Ambient aware.
    It also has a Talk through function for when someone is talking to you.

    I wouldn't pay 100 euros. They were bought only because there was a refund from other headphones, since the store had closed

    This review is about the colour: Black

    Purchased in May 2024, in 1 year and 4 months (2 years warranty) the battery of the case broke down, it charges and basically gives only one use in total. In my search I saw that it is a common phenomenon and unfortunately it cannot be repaired by an official representative. For its price, it is unacceptable that the battery lasts only this long. Related link on Reddit. If you have noticed this and are within warranty, it is good to make a claim https://www.reddit.com/r/JBL/comments/1kn9bbp/live_pro_2_tws_case_malfunction/

    I've had them for several months now. On the positive side, there is good connectivity with iPhone and Android, as well as sound quality. On the negative side, the fit is not perfect, which varies from person to person, and while running you can hear the inside hitting the casing, which is a bit annoying.

    Very good sound, very good ANC. They are not suitable for intense exercise, because they come off relatively easily, but I didn't get them for that. For moderate exercise and music enjoyment, they are perfect!

    This review is about the colour: Black

    It really isolates ambient sounds effectively — compared to the AirPods, it is clearly better in this area. However, when you talk on the phone, your conversation partner can also hear external sounds like wind or noise.

    The battery lasts for many days without charging, even with full use.

    Additionally, it has very good compatibility with both the iPhone and the computer (laptop).

    Overall, I am very satisfied — compared to the AirPods I had, these are also much more affordable.

    Truly perfect sound with treble, bass as if you are in the space where the music piece you are listening to is being played. Also, the isolation from environmental noise is perfect. Very ergonomic, by choosing the right size ear tip they fit perfectly in the ear without causing discomfort.

    The worst headphones I have ever bought
    They do not connect when I put them in my ear and every time I have to turn on the Bluetooth from my phone and press connect, and even then, if they connect
    I sent them for service and they returned them to me after 25 days saying they are fine
    Nevertheless, they do not work
    99 euros wasted
    I think it's better for someone to buy from a physical store even if it's more expensive
    the hassle is priceless

    Very reliable and VFM. They were purchased as a second pair to the Earpods and I would say they compete despite the price gap.

    Resistance to sweat and weather conditions, you hear well and have no complaints about the microphone. A good choice and a reliable brand.

    I got them and expected it to be a smooth connection experience since they say they are dual point, but they can't be connected to both mobile and laptop at the same time. When they are only connected to the mobile, they play music, but they don't switch to the call when I stop the music to take a call. Okay, the noise cancelling is very strong, the sound quality is good, but the connectivity issue is very frustrating. It's a shame for their price.

    Super satisfied with the product.
    The sound is classic JBL for those who know, colorless with punchy bass just right.
    I got them for music and they have left me satisfied.
    In speech, everything is crystal clear and the interlocutor hears you and you hear them crystal clear.
    The noise cancelling is good, there is definitely better but it has fully covered me.
    Attention for those who choose the silver color, because it doesn't look good in photos, the outer casing is shiny and you will look like you are wearing earrings.
    Also, the JBL app is complete, but it freezes on Xiaomi phones and urgently needs an upgrade.

    The only good thing about these headphones is the battery. Sound is terrible, especially for music. The app is difficult for me to use, and I know a few things about sound due to my profession. The app is not good; they keep falling out. When you run, you hear something inside the headphone that sounds like it has come loose. Don't buy it.

    The first pair worked normally for one day. Then they lost connection with the phone; we tried them on five phones, and none could find them. They refunded my money because they didn't have any others. I went and got the same ones from another store, and today, after two months, they completely lost communication for a while. Then one was working, and then both were dead.

    It quickly presented me with many issues with the sound, especially with the volume first in one earbud and then in the other. Sometimes it fixes itself randomly and then breaks again. Also, mediocre sound for the money even before it presented issues. In general, I would not recommend them at all; there are much better options for this money

    Good sound and noise cancellation. Build quality is good but doesn't justify the 120€. Three stars because it doesn't block out the surrounding sounds for the person on the other end. On the contrary, it annoyingly amplifies them, as I've been told. Therefore, get JBL but the cheaper series. It offers the same.
