JBLVibe Beam - True Wireless JBL Deep Bass Sound Earbuds, Bluetooth 5.2, Water & Dust Resistant, Hands-free call with VoiceAware, Up to 32 hours of battery life (White)

Just got the JBL Vibe Beam and I’m really happy with them so far. The sound quality is awesome, the bass is deep and punchy, just how I like it. They fit really well and don’t fall out, even when I’m on the move.One thing to note: they don’t have active noise cancellation, so you’ll still hear some background noise. But honestly, the sound is so good that I don’t even mind. The battery life is solid too, I can go all day without needing to recharge.Overall, for the price and quality, I’d definitely recommend these. Great everyday earbuds!

Let me just start by saying the JBL Vibe Beam earbuds don’t just deliver sound. They transport you. Whether I’m jamming to ‘80s synth, zoning out to ambient rain, or ignoring that guy in line who wants to talk about cryptocurrency, these buds have quickly become my favorite daily companion.Sound That Punches Above Its Weight:The JBL Deep Bass lives up to the hype you can feel the kick without it overpowering the mids and highs. These aren’t your average “meh” commuter earbuds. These are “look-up-and-smile-at-nothing” earbuds. Everything sounds crisp, balanced, and immersive, especially at this price point.Battery Life = Legendary:I used them all day, workouts, Zoom calls, errands, and I didn’t need to recharge for over two days. The total 32-hour battery life (with the case) means I’m only vaguely aware that charging is a thing humans still do.Comfort + Security = Ear Happiness:They’re lightweight and fit securely enough to survive an enthusiastic treadmill session (or spontaneous kitchen dancing). No slipping, no weird ear fatigue, and no looking like a secret agent with a blinking headset.VoiceAware & Call Clarity:Calls are solid, VoiceAware lets you hear just enough of yourself so you don’t end up shouting like you’re hailing a cab in Times Square. The mic clarity made me sound professional, even while calling from a questionable gas station parking lot.Bonus: They’re Practically Bulletproof (Not Literally):With IP54 water and dust resistance, I wore them in the rain like a defiant movie character having a moment. Still worked flawlessly. They seem ready for everything from sweaty gym bags to pocket lint apocalypse.Final Thoughts:The JBL Vibe Beam earbuds are the kind of tech that just works, intuitively, comfortably, and with unexpectedly rich audio. If you’re looking for wireless earbuds that feel premium without the price tag of a small appliance, these are it.

So I will start by saying I am no audiophike, so keep that in mind when you read my thoughts on this.My previous earbuds were the Sennheiser CX Plus True Wireless earbuds. I used those pretty much almost daily for 4 years, which means I became accustomed to that sound profile. In the end the right earbud gave out and it was time for a replacement, which landed me here (after watching 2-3 hours of YouTube reviews).These things are equipped with way more pros than cons.1. The JBL Vibes connect to my phones Bluetooth much faster (I have a Google Pixel 8 Pro)2. They fit my ears better, whereas my old ones would fall out of my ears while I was chewing or leaning over. If I forced them in deeper the sound disappeared. It was a not so fun game of "stay put".3. The app for the JBL Vibes is easier to use and actually connects to your earbuds without a lot of jumping through hoops.4. The case is more compact so it's not so bulky in your pocket.So I'll start by saying my 4 star rating is a conflicted one. For the price these things are a solid 5/5, but as an overall I would give these more of a 4.3 out 5.When you first pair them and start using them you might immediately know why the app exists, it's to take advantage of the equalizer. To my ears they sounded tin-y and scratchy with the highs and mids coming in way too hard ( S sounds were so sharp it made music sound harsh and not enjoyable).So I opened up the Equalizer and put on some music from YouTube, selected the Jazz sound profile as my starting point then tweaked to what sounded good to me (see my attached screenshot). The other issue is, I can't blast these at full volume, they get uncomfortably loud, and the sound starts to distort, so I keep them just short of full blast and they sound great that way. There is a setting in the app to reduce the volume at max, but it's lower than I want it to be so I do not use that. The big key thing to do is get good clean bass out of the sound profile so you aren't listening to ear piercing highs.So now that I got the sound out of the way and like what I'm hearing, my next issue is that these are not the most comfortable. Don't get me wrong, they aren't so uncomfortable that I would return them, but there is slight discomfort at the top of my ear canal, where the hard plastic pushes against my cartilage.The battery life is pretty good and they charge quickly inside their case, which stays shut pretty well (I did a drop test onto carpeted floor and it stayed shut). My other one gripe at the moment is that putting the earbuds into the case in the dark is kind of tricky (say you are listening to music or a video while your SO is sleeping next to you, and now you want to go to sleep too, but it's dark). I find myself rotating the buds trying to position that lower piece back into the case at just the right angle.Would I recommend these to a friend just looking for a good reasonably priced option for earbuds? Yes, absolutely....would an audiophile agree with me, who knows.
